Hello, I recently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and created an App ID with the bundle ID com.echo.eyes.voice. I am trying to enable Speech Recognition in the App ID capabilities list, but the option does not appear — even after waiting over a week since my membership was activated. I’ve already: Confirmed my Apple Developer account is active Checked the Identifiers section in the Developer portal Tried editing the App ID, but Speech Recognition is not listed Contacted both Developer Support and Developer Technical Support (Case #102594089120), but was told to post here for help My app uses Capacitor + the @capacitor-community/speech-recognition plugin. I need the com.apple.developer.speech-recognition entitlement to appear so I can use native voice input in iOS. I would really appreciate help from an Apple engineer or anyone who has faced this issue. Thank you, — Daniel Colyer

When requesting authorisation to gain access to the user's microphone in the visionOS 2.4 simulator, the simulator crashes upon the user clicking allow. Using Swift 6, code below.

I am building an iOS app with the App ID: com.echo.eyes.app I have a paid Apple Developer membership and have followed all correct procedures, including: Adding com.apple.developer.speech-recognition manually to the App.entitlements file Setting Info.plist keys for microphone and speech permissions Assigning my Apple Developer Team to the project Setting App/App.entitlements under Code Signing Entitlements Despite all this, Xcode automatic signing fails, and I receive the error: vbnet Copy Edit Provisioning profile 'iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.echo.eyes.app' doesn't include the com.apple.developer.speech-recognition entitlement. I am unable to add the entitlement via the Capabilities section, and no method I try will allow provisioning to succeed. Please update this App ID to include the required entitlement in the provisioning profile. This issue is preventing all voice recognition functionality. Thank you.

why my Xcode organizer can not show Hangs

So Xcode has projects. And I breakup my code/libraries/targets into those. So why after 20 years of Xcode, can a workspace, that holds projects not display the same project opened in another workspace? The workspace redirects all output the project would normally generate in DerivedData to a completely different folder by default. What this means is I have to shut one workspace, and then open the other workspace with a different set of projects to see the ones that are shared. The workspace can't build because it can't open the project shared with another one that is open. VS sln files don't have this issue, so why do workspace files.

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.

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,

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

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 I am a new self taught developer who is atm working on the backend of my app. My app successfully collects location of users and stores it to cloudkits public database. I now want to write a python script and run it on a local server on my windows terminal which fetches users who are in a certain proximity to each other so i can trigger a flow on the app. Can someone first of all tell me if this is even possible the way im attempting it. Also atm all i am doing is generating a server to server key which makes me generate a public and private key and i use the private key file eckey.pem plus key id plus container plus team ID to query the required data. but when i run it i get a 401 error (no authorization). I am so stumped as there arent many resources available to help direct me to the right path. Can someone please offer some help/insight/confidence. thanks alot

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

Context I created a short script to CPU profile a program from the command line. I am able to record via the Instruments app, but when I try from the command line I get the following error shown below. This example is just profiling the grep command. Error: % cpu_profile /usr/bin/grep \ --recursive "Brendan Gregg" \ "$(xcode-select --print-path)/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk" Profiling /usr/bin/grep into /tmp/cpu_profile_grep.trace Starting recording with the CPU Profiler template. Launching process: grep. Ctrl-C to stop the recording Run issues were detected (trace is still ready to be viewed): * [Error] Failed to start the recording: Failed to force all hardware CPU counters: 13.

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:

hello, I got a question about coreml. I loaded the coreml model in the project and set the computing unit to CPU+GPU. When I used instruments to analyze the performance, I found that there was an overhead of prepare gpu request before each inference. I also checked the freezing point graph and found that memory was frequently allocated. Is this as expected? Is there any way to avoid frequent prepares? I have tried some methods, such as memory sharing of predict interface input parameters, but it seems to be ineffective.

I am trying to use build script to build a product. The following is something I put in the script. XCODEBUILD="/usr/bin/xcodebuild" XCODE_VERSION=$((${XCODEBUILD} -version 2>/dev/null || echo 'V -1') | head -n 1 | awk '{ print $2 }') But I got the error from the above line. I double checked and make sure that I installed the Xcode command line tool on my Mac laptop. Any advice for this issue? Thanks.

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.

Dear Apple,I'm an iOS developer and provided feedback in the good old online bug tracker for many years.Decent conversations with Apple egnineers often resulted in bug fixes or updated documentation.The fact that my contributions helped to improve the products was rewarding.So I kept adding reports in the new Feedback Assistant app in macOS Catalina.But ever since (September 2019) I never ever got any response on any ticket.1 month ago I even added a report if Apple even read my reports. Again, no response ever since.So my question on this forum: Is Apple actually reading reports in the new Feedback Assistant?This can either be answered by Apple, or by other Developers that hopefully did response feedback from Apple. Or did not.Best regards,Martijn

I am trying to add in-app purchases to my app. I created a StoreKit Configuration file and checked the option 'Sync this file with an app in App Store Connect' because I have already completed the subscription setup in my Apple Developer account. I also tried implementing the in-app purchases directly without using the StoreKit Configuration file, but I’m getting an 'Invalid Product Identifiers' error. I’ve double-checked, and the product ID matches the one listed in my Apple account. Please guide me on what I should do.
