Hello,
I'm doing an update to my app already IN the app store.
The app is built using .Net Maui targeting iOS, Windows and Android.
All works fine in debug and in release on Android and Windows.
However, the app launches on my iOS devices and crashes immediately.
I really have no idea what the crash report on the device is telling me.
Attached is the .ips file if anyone can at least point me in the right direction...
Thanks

There is a bug in Unity Plugins: Corehaptics.AssetPickerDrawer throws exceptions and draws incorrectly when fieldInfo or assetType is null (FB17305973). I fixed it and created a pull request: https://github.com/apple/unityplugins/pull/47
It has been months and this bug is really annoying.

I added an Apple Watch app target for an iOS app. If I install it directly through Xcode it runs, however it seems to be able to communicate with iphone through Watch Connectivity framework and once I close the app it seems to uninstall itself from the watch. When I installed the iphone app frist, the app does not show up on the available apps on the iphone Watch application, what could be the issue ?
The iphone app was created using react native through expo.

am I correct in thinking that local agentsic coding is going to come to Xcode at some point ? I'm thinking cursor ai or windsurf / cline style.

I have developed an app that I had been testing on the hardware device with the developer profile signed builds, I had setup a CloudKit container in development mode and also had tested with Production mode and they are working as expected. I have also tested storekit auto renewal subscriptions using Storekit Config file and all of that is working on the hardware device with the developer profile signed builds.
Now comes the Fun Part, I want to use the Distribution profile to test the app for production readiness, I had created a distribution profile and had set that up in the Release under target of the app in Xcode, I have also created sandbox tester account (which is showing inactive even after 7 days - though I am also logged in with this sandbox tester account on a hardware device and under developer setting it shows as a sandbox tester account)
All the subscriptions are showing Ready to Submit in the App Store Connect.
I need help understand this whole flow, how to ensure I can test CloudKit and storekit for production readiness and then publish my app for the review.
Thank you.

I would like to know if macOS DEXT supports the following networking features: Tx/Rx Multiqueue, RSS, RSC, NS/ARP offload, PTP or packet timestamping and TSN.
I couldn't find relevant documentation for these features in the Apple Developer Documentation.
If they are supported, could you let me know which features are supported and how to find the corresponding official Apple documentation?
Thanks

Hi all, I have set up a trivial test project to try Apple-hosted background assets following the instructions in the three articles at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/backgroundassets.
When I run the local mock server with xcrun ba-serve and set the URL override in Settings as described in the "Testing asset packs locally" article, I am able to download a test pack on my iOS devices. On the Mac that I use to run the mock server, however, the same call to AssetPackManager.shared.assetPack(withID: "TestAssetPack") that works on iOS always reports
The asset pack with the ID “TestAssetPack” couldn’t be looked up: No asset pack with the ID “TestAssetPack” was found.
even when not running the mock server, which led me to believe that it may not be hitting it at all. In fact, the macOS app will download asset packs uploaded to App Store Connect even when running the local server and setting the xcrun ba-serve url-override to the exact same string as in Settings on iOS. My initial suspicion was that something is wrong with the URL override, so I have tried all combinations of the Mac's hostname, IP address or "localhost" (with the corresponding SSL certificates) with and without port 443, always prefixing with "https://" for the url-override. All the same.
Does anyone have an idea what may be the issue here?
My asset pack has the following manifest:
{
"assetPackID": "TestAssetPack",
"downloadPolicy": {
"onDemand": {}
},
"fileSelectors": [
{
"file": "TestAsset.txt"
}
],
"platforms": [
"iOS",
"macOS"
]
}
I am running v26.1 for macOS, iOS & Xcode.
Edit:
Just to be clear, my assumption here is that the URL overrides (in Settings on iOS or via ba-serve on macOS) is what should cause the app to hit the mock server. Is that correct or am I missing something?
Hello, I need a little bit of help. My game keeps crashing on launch no matter what I do. I’ve tried running it in Xcode on my Mac, on my iPhone, and through TestFlight, but I get the same result every time.
I’ve tried everything I could find on the internet, and nothing worked. Asking here is my last resort because I’m completely stuck.
The game runs fine in Unity, but not so much in Xcode.
Can someone help me figure out what I’m doing wrong?Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the error log I found by connecting my iPhone to my Mac. To view the logs, I used the Console in the Devices and Simulators section of Xcode.

Hey, I am using the terminal a lot. Since I updated to Sonoma (so, really a long time ago). My prompt or more precise the hostname always changes between three states. Sometimes it is username@Macbook-Pro-of-XXX, sometimes username@MacbookPro and sometimes it's username@xxxxxxxx-yyyy-zzzz-aaaa-bbbbbbbbbbbb. The latter is probably my UUID. Does anyone have a clue why this randomly changes?
I have a Apple Developer accounts for development purposes only and that is also used for testing builds via TestFlight. Is the Age Ratings Responses updates due by the end of January 2026 still required even to send builds to TestFlight?
I am using Swift Testing for TDD my project. I have a struct that contains an array of 65536 UInt8's along with other properties. I am testing methods that modify the properties of the struct including the contents of the array.
In just one of my test files, any test fails (there are several in the file), the entire contents of the struct, including the array, are printed to the console. In another test file they are not. I'm don't think there are any differences to the test setup in the two files. Any idea what's going on?
I'm able get the program to skip the dump to the console by copying the properties I want to test to local let constants and testing those.
Thanks
I'm running the latest iOS 26 beta 5 on my iPad and iPhone. Whenever I run these betas, I always get the message below telling me an update is available (whenever I plug in my devices). I'm assuming this is because the update check is detecting that I have something other than the latest production release. Obviously, it makes no sense to ask me to update to a prod build when I'm running the dev beta. Is there a way to turn this message off? Or maybe Apple could handle this situation better? Or maybe it's just a bug and I'm the only one getting this message?

Hi everyone,
I'm developing a visionOS application using Unity with an enterprise developer account. I applied for the Main Camera Access entitlement, but at the time of submission, the email address associated with my Apple ID was deactivated, so I couldn’t receive any email communication from Apple.
Later, I updated the email address for my Apple ID. Now, in the Apple Developer portal under Identifiers, I can see that my app has been granted Main Camera Access, and I can also add the corresponding capability in Xcode.
However, according to Apple’s documentation(https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionos/building-spatial-experiences-for-business-apps-with-enterprise-apis):
“To use entitlements, you need to include both the entitlement file and a corresponding license file in your app. After Apple approves your app for one or more entitlements, you receive a license file, along with additional instructions.”
I never received this license file, possibly due to the deactivated email. I don't know where to find it or how to retrieve it now.
What exactly is this license file?
If it was originally sent to an unreachable email, how can I request it again or get it resent?
Where in the Apple Developer portal (or elsewhere) can I access or download this file?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
I've created an installation package and it is failing to install on macOS 15.6.
The package is, I believe, properly notarized, since it will install correctly on other macOS versions, including 15.5
The only clue I have is the output from installer:
installer[8015] : Opened package is not the same at install time
installer[8015] : Unable to use PK session due to incompatible packages. Terminating.
installer[8015] : Install failed: The Installer could not install the software because there was no software found to install.
The installer consists of a a single "component" package, and the outer "product" package. The component package is present, and I can successfully run installer manually to install it, so I don't think the component package is corrupt.
Has anyone else encountered this? Are there any tools available to help me diagnose the issue? The logging is not helpful.

I am a solo developer building a cross-platform voice assistant app using Capacitor (with HTML, JS) and Xcode for the iOS version. The app is called "Echo Eyes," and it already functions well as a Progressive Web App (PWA). However, the iOS build has been completely blocked due to persistent sandbox permission errors from macOS during the CocoaPods framework embedding phase.
This issue has caused severe disruption to my project and personal well-being, and I am writing to formally request assistance in identifying a clear solution. I am not a beginner and have followed all known best practices, forums, and Apple guidance without success.
What I’ve Built So Far:
Fully working PWA version of the app (voice input, HTML/JS interface)
Capacitor initialized with ID: com.echo.eyes.voice
Capacitor iOS platform added with CocoaPods
App runs fine until Xcode reaches: [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks
The Exact Problem:
Sandbox: bash(12319) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Shared/projects/Echo_Mobile/ios/App/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-App/Pods-App-frameworks.sh
Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code
Clarification:
This is not an HTML/JS issue. The failure occurs in Xcode long before web assets are embedded into the bundle. The shell script /Pods-App-frameworks.sh cannot be read due to macOS sandbox restrictions.
Everything I’ve Tried:
Gave Xcode and Terminal Full Disk Access
Ran: sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine on the entire Pods directory
Added /bin/bash and /bin/sh to Full Disk Access (after confirming the exact shell via $SHELL)
Attempted to disable Gatekeeper via Terminal: sudo spctl --master-disable (confirmed not effective without GUI toggle)
Tried relocating project to /Users/Shared/projects/
Cleaned build folder, removed derived data, reinstalled pods
Debugged shell usage with: echo "▶️ Embedding under shell: $SHELL" in the [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks script
Attempted to grant shell access to Documents Folder, Desktop, and more via Files & Folders
Current State:
Despite following all known and recommended steps, Xcode continues to return the same sandbox error. The shell script that embeds the CocoaPod frameworks is denied permission to read its own contents by macOS.
What I Am Asking For:
Is this a known issue in current versions of macOS or Xcode regarding sandbox denial for shell execution inside Pods?
Is there a recommended method to grant /bin/bash or /bin/sh permission to read and run these scripts under Xcode without compromising system security?
Is moving the project outside /Users (e.g. to /Projects) the only real workaround?
Are there official Apple workarounds or entitlements available for developers encountering this?
Personal Note:
This issue has caused significant emotional and physical distress. I’m building this app as a personal healing tool and companion. I’ve poured months of work into this and done everything I can to follow Apple’s development guidelines.
I’m not asking for hand-holding — only a clear, respectful response confirming whether this is expected behavior and what can be done to resolve it.
Thank you for your time and understanding.
How do I download the iPad Air (5th generation) 18.3 simulator? I activated my Mac and only have version 18.2 available.
I need to test the simulator that they are testing, but I can't because I don't have version 18.3 available. I only have the iPad version 18.2 available and the application works fine on that version.
I have already added logs in different parts of the application, but in the files that you shared with me no log appears. The macOS operating system is macOS Drought.

I'm attempting to create a proof of concept of a static library, distributed as an XCFramework, which has two local XCFramework dependencies.
The reason for this is because I'm working to provide a single statically linked library to a customer, instead of providing them with the static library plus the two dependencies.
The Issue
With a fairly simple example project, I'm not able to access any code from the static library without the complier throwing a "No such module" error and saying that it cannot find one of the dependent modules.
Project Layout
I have an example project that has some example targets with basic example code.
Example Project on Github
Target: FrameworkA
Mach-0 Type: Dynamic
Build Mergable Library: Yes
Skip Install: No
Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes
Target: FrameworkB
Mach-0 Type: Dynamic
Build Mergable Library: Yes
Skip Install: No
Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes
XCFrameworks are being generated from these two targets using Apple's recommendations. I've verified that the mergable metadata is present in both framework's Info.plist files.
Each exposes a single struct which will return an example String.
Finally I have my SDK target:
Target: ExampleKit
Mach-0 Type: Static
Build Mergable Library: No
Create Merged Binary: Manual
Skip Install: No
Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes
The two .xcframework files are in the Target's folder structure as well. The "Link Binary With Libraries" build phase includes them and they're Required.
Inside of the ExampleKit target, I have a single public struct which has two static properties which return the example strings from FrameworkA and FrameworkB.
I then have another script which generates an XCFramework from this target.
Expectations
Based on Apple's documentation and the "Meet Mergable Libraries" WWDC session I would expect that I could make a simple iOS app, link the ExampleKit.xcframework, import ExampleKit inside of a file, and be able to access the single public struct present in ExampleKit. Unfortunately, all I get is "No such module FrameworkA".
I would expect that FrameworkA and FrameworkB would have been merged into ExampleKit? I'm really unsure of where to go from here in debugging this. And more importantly, is this even a possible thing to do?
I am developing an iOS in-app SDK for collecting code coverage data. The SDK writes coverage data to a specified file by calling __llvm_profile_set_filename and __llvm_profile_write_file. This implementation worked correctly until I switched to Xcode 26.0 to build my project. Now, when __llvm_profile_write_file() is executed, it crashes with the following error stack. Can anyone provide any assistance?
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)

Hi Support Team,
I am new here. I am unable to add my fonts to the asset catalog there is no option to add new font set when I click the plus sign.
When I drag my files in they show up as data.
I have a Contents.json in the font folder called BeVietnamProFont.font.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Thanks SO much!
