Hello, I am currently developing a game streaming application using ReplayKit and Broadcast Upload Extension. I would like to ask for your assistance regarding capturing snapshots of a WKWebView in the upload extension without adding it to a visible view hierarchy. From my understanding, calling takeSnapshot(with:) on a WKWebView that is not added to the view hierarchy generally works for simple web pages. However, when it comes to more complex web content — such as animations or WebGL — the snapshot returns a blank or static image. I believe this is because rendering such content requires access to the GPU, which is not fully available when the web view is off-screen. That said, I’ve observed that certain apps are able to capture live animated web content inside their broadcast upload extensions, even when the main app is terminated. This suggests that the snapshot is not being generated by the main app or from a remote server — especially since the network activity confirms the content is served locally (via localhost or local IP). Given this, I believe there must be a way to achieve GPU-accelerated rendering for WKWebView directly within the upload extension context, without attaching it to the app's UI. I would greatly appreciate any guidance, APIs, or recommended techniques that could help me achieve this behavior correctly and within system limitations. Thank you in advance for your support. I look forward to your advice. Warm regards,

This really shouldn't be this difficult. Here's the situation: We had a card linked to our Apple Developer account, which expired. It had already seen 2 successful membership purchases. We had auto-renewal turned on for the membership, which failed due to the expired card. I was unable to capture new payment details for about 2 days (battling with various Apple payment pages to get the new card added). But finally managed to do so. Now, there is no way to disable auto-renewal, and no way to trigger renewal. The membership is in expired status. We can't post updates, we can't take apps live. We have several clients eagerly awaiting publication of their apps. And Apple Support has been silent for over two weeks despite numerous requests. Anyone have any idea how to resolve this? I've tried almost every option described on every forum post.

Hi Apple Developer Team, I’m a developer based in South Africa. I initially submitted my enrollment for the Apple Developer Program (Individual) last week Thursday (May 2nd, 2025). The enrollment was then withdrawn by Apple, asking me to re-apply - which I did. Unfortunately, the same issue persists. I entered valid payment details during the re-application. No payment has been deducted. The enroll button on the Apple Developer app remains disabled. It has now been 5 days without resolution. We’ve even gone to the extent of verifying our banking setup and confirming that our card is enabled for international payments. Out of frustration, I have now withdrawn all enrollment applications. Please advise on how I can proceed based on the Case ID I have submitted. This delay is affecting our iOS launch, and I would really appreciate guidance on the way forward. Thank you.

Hello There! I will try to be very active! (I had nothing to type lol)

We applied for the Apple Developer Program on April 28, and our enrollment has been stuck in review since then — over three weeks now. We have already submitted all required documents, including: Turkish National ID and Passport Estonian e-Residency Card Company registration documents from the Estonian e-Business Register D-U-N-S number VAT and Registry information Detailed explanations as a sole founder and legal representative Enrollment Case number is 102586593909 We even had a follow-up phone call with Apple Developer Support (Case ID: 102589592062) and were told the submitted documents should be sufficient. I also followed all upload instructions and confirmed that the files were delivered successfully. Despite all this, we haven’t received any updates, timelines, or specific feedback on what’s missing — if anything at all. ✅ Meanwhile, we’ve completed similar business verification processes with Google, Meta, and Stripe within 48 hours. We’re trying to launch our app under an officially registered business (Mobisense OÜ), and this delay is affecting our go-to-market timeline and business operations. 🔹 Has anyone else experienced this kind of delay recently? 🔹 Is there a reliable way to escalate or request an actual review update? Apple, please review this case and help move the process forward. Thank you.

Hello, I've encountered unexpected behavior related to version information in our app logs, and I'd like to ask for some advice. We reviewed logs collected from a user running our app (currently available on the App Store). The logs are designed to include both the build number and the app version. Based on the build number in the logs, we believe the installed app version on the user's device is 1.0.3. However, the app version recorded in the logs is 1.1.5, which is the latest version currently available on the App Store. In our project, we set the app version using the MARKETING_VERSION environment variable. This value is configured via XcodeGen, and we define it in a YAML file. Under normal circumstances, the value defined in the YAML file (MARKETING_VERSION = 1.0.3) should be embedded in the app and reflected in the logs. But in this case, the version from the current App Store release (1.1.5) appears instead, which was unexpected. We'd like to know what might cause this behavior, and if there are any known factors that could lead to this. Also, is it possible that MARKETING_VERSION might somehow dynamically reflect the version currently available on the App Store? YAML: info.plist:

"Failed to verify your identity. Try again." I only see this text. I have the correct apple account and password and I have made the payment. I can't log in with my password, why? Question 1: What should I do to log in with my password? Question 2: What is the error?

Hi, today I upgraded Xcode to Version 16.4 (16F6) and the Simulator to version Version 16.0 (1042.1) since then I get the following message in the debugger with any project when running the simulator: load_eligibility_plist: Failed to open /Users/xxxx/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/1B9FA609-7502-42DE-93A8-B856E2618A7F/data/Containers/Data/Application/4FA1B071-A5F1-4E00-B3AC-630E273DD900/private/var/db/eligibilityd/eligibility.plist: No such file or directory I have checked other similar questions but in my case I do not have Cocoapods installed.

Is anyone else receiving this warning from Xcode when running on the Simulator? "Failed retrieving MusicKit tokens: fetching the developer token is not supported in the simulator when running on this version of macOS; please upgrade your Mac to macOS Ventura." My Mac is already updated to macOS Sequoia, and I'm also running the latest version of Xcode. Feedback: FB17150538

I know there has been issues with SFSpeechRecognizer in iOS 17+ inside the simulator. Running into issues with speech not being recognised inside the visionOS 2.4 simulator as well (likely because it borrows from iOS frameworks). Just wondering if anyone has any work arounds or advice for this simulator issue. I can't test on device because I don't have an Apple Vision Pro. Using Swift 6 on Xcode 16.3. Below are the console logs & the code that I am using.

Hi, I'm unable to install provisioning profile on my iPad and I know the xcode component iOS/iPadOs version and iPadOS version should be same or below the latest compared to xcode components. Now the issue is xcode component version is iOS 18.4 (22E235) SDK + iOS 18.4 (22E238) Simulator (Installed) and iPadOS version is iOS 18.4.1(22E252) could this be cause of issue ? If yes then when will apple release components for 18.4.1? Because iOS 18.4.1 release at least 3-4 weeks before this post.

After upgrading to iOS 18.4, I noticed that launching a debug build from Xcode becomes extremely slow. The same app with the same large debug binary (~1GB) launches normally on devices running iOS 18.3. This issue seems specific to iOS 18.4, possibly related to the way the OS handles large debug binaries or symbols during the launch process. Steps to Reproduce: Connect an iPhone running iOS 18.4 to a Mac with Xcode. Build and run an app using Xcode in Debug mode. Observe the extended launch time. Re-run the same process on another iPhone with iOS 18.3 — launch is fast. Expected Result: Debug launch should be fast and consistent across iOS versions. Actual Result: Debug launch is significantly slower on iOS 18.4 for large binaries (~1GB). Environment: Xcode version: 16.0 macOS version: 15.4 Device: iPhone [model] iOS version: 18.4 (problematic), 18.3 (no issue)

(Copy pasted from FB17261080 that I submitted) Hi: Apple's SDK (libSystem.B.tbd) provides definition for multiple symbols(__unw_add_dynamic_fde / __unw_add_find_dynamic_unwind_sections ), but doesn't provide corresponding headers, available in LLVM upstream as libunwind_ext.h We need such headers to write Exception-Enabled JIT Framework for macOS

Hi, I really appreciate the C++ binding provided. I got the metal-cpp source code from the website at Getting Started. However, I could not find the same for metal-cpp-extensions. Is it not available or do we have to always extract it from the sample code? Thanks.

I'm trying to create a preview for my live activities when it's stale, so I created a preview provider. I followed some examples, but XCode says I'm missing preview context. Am I doing something wrong? I tried adding .previewContext(WidgetPreviewContext(family: .systemSmall)) but that doesn't seem to work.

iOS 18.5 and macOS 15.5 have already shipped, but the final release of Xcode 16.4 is nowhere to be found at developer.apple.com Manually building a link based upon the link for version 16.3 results in a 403 error: https://download.developer.apple.com/Developer_Tools/Xcode_16.4/Xcode_16.4.xip

So I can see from the documentation that XCTAssertEqual(x, y) becomes #expect(x == y), but what about XCTAssertEqual(x, y, accuracy: 0.2)? Does something already exist or do we need to write a more involved statement to see if x is less than y plus z and more than y minus z?
