I donate INPlayMediaIntent to systerm（donate success）, but not show in control center My code is as follows let mediaItems = mediaItems.map { $0.inMediaItem } let intent = if #available(iOS 13.0, *) { INPlayMediaIntent(mediaItems: mediaItems, mediaContainer: nil, playShuffled: false, playbackRepeatMode: .none, resumePlayback: true, playbackQueueLocation: .now, playbackSpeed: nil, mediaSearch: nil) } else { INPlayMediaIntent(mediaItems: mediaItems, mediaContainer: nil, playShuffled: false, playbackRepeatMode: .none, resumePlayback: true) } intent.suggestedInvocationPhrase = "播放音乐" let interaction = INInteraction(intent: intent, response: nil) interaction.donate { error in if let error = error { print("Intent 捐赠失败: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("Intent 捐赠成功 ✅") } }

My Environment: Device: Mac (Apple Silicon, arm64) OS: macOS 15.6.1 Description: I'm developing a music app and have encountered an issue where I cannot update the playbackState in MPNowPlayingInfoCenter after my app loses audio focus to another app. Even though my app correctly calls [MPNowPlayingInfoCenter defaultCenter].playbackState = .paused, the system's Now Playing UI (Control Center, Lock Screen, AirPods controls) does not reflect this change. The UI remains stuck until the app that currently holds audio focus also changes its playback state. I've observed this same behavior in other third-party music apps from the App Store, which suggests it might be a system-level issue. Steps to Reproduce: Use two most popular music apps in Chinese app Store (NeteaseCloud music and QQ music) (let's call them App A and App B): Start playback in App A. Start playback in App B. (App B now has audio focus, and App A is still playing). Attempt to pause App A via the system's Control Center or its own UI. Observed Behavior: App A's audio stream stops, but in the system's Now Playing controls, App A still appears to be playing. The progress bar continues to advance, and the pause button becomes unresponsive. If you then pause App B, the Now Playing UI for App A immediately corrects itself and displays the proper "paused" state. My Questions: Is there a specific procedure required to update MPNowPlayingInfoCenter when an app is not the current "Now Playing" application? Is this a known issue or expected behavior in macOS? Are there any official workarounds or solutions to ensure the UI updates correctly?

Queria saber quando lança o IOS 26 oficialmente I wanted to know when iOS 26 will be officially released.

Hello, I want to know if there are any restrictions with MusicKit to be used in a mobile app to be able to manipulate audio with an EQ on tracks coming from Apple Music, without modifying the actual track structure/data of course, just the audio output.

Hello, I am trying to access the Apple Music Feed API, but I am recieving a 401 Unauthorized error message whenever I try to access it. I have tried using my own code to generate a JWT and directly call the API (which can call the standard Apple Music API successfully). > GET /v1/feed/song/latest HTTP/2 > Host: api.media.apple.com > user-agent: insomnia/2023.5.8 > authorization: Bearer [REDACTED] > accept: */* < HTTP/2 401 < content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8 < content-length: 0 < x-apple-jingle-correlation-key: AV5IOHBNM2UUJVOFQ4HZ2TGF6Q < x-daiquiri-instance: daiquiri:10001:daiquiri-all-shared-ext-7bb7c9b9bb-r459v:7987:25RELEASE91:daiquiri-amp-kubernetes-shared-ext-ak8s-prod-pv4-amp-daiquiri-ingress-prod and also the Apple provided Python example code, which gives me authentication errors too. $ python3 ./apple_music_feed_example.py --key-id NMBH[...] --team-id 3TNZ[...] --secret-key-file-path "/Users/foxt/Documents/am-feed/NMBH[...].p8" --out-dir . running....

I am using https://developer.apple.com/documentation/applemusicapi/add-tracks-to-a-library-playlist to add tracks to playlists. This endpoint works fine for all playlists except for collaborative playlists. For collaborative playlist I get the following 500 error as a response: "errors": [ { "id": "<some id>", "title": "Upstream Service Error", "detail": "Unable to update tracks", "status": "500", "code": "50001" } ] } Steps to reproduce: Create a playlist in your library. Use the api to add a song. Confirm that it works. Make that same playlist collaborative. Update the playlist ID in your api request (as making a playlist collaborative changes its id) Confirm that you get the 500 error.

I have implemented fetching Apple Music preview songs using a Swift framework integrated into a Unity app. My requirement is to fetch full tracks from a user’s Apple Music library and play them inside Unity. To do this, I understand that I need to handle authentication, generate a Developer Token, and then obtain a Music User Token to access the user’s Apple Music content. Currently, I have an Individual Apple Developer account (not Organization). Based on my research, it seems that: With an Individual account, I can implement this functionality and even upload builds to TestFlight for internal testing. However, when releasing the app publicly on the App Store, full-track playback may be restricted for Individual accounts and allowed only for Organization accounts. 👉 Can you confirm if this understanding is correct? 👉 Specifically, is it possible for an Individual account to fetch and play full-length tracks from a subscribed Apple Music user’s library (at least for internal/TestFlight testing)?

How can media resources in my app be recommended to the system media control center, just like TikTok in the picture

I've been using CGWindowListCreateImage which automatically creates an image with the size of the captured window. But SCScreenshotManager.captureImage(contentFilter:configuration:) always creates images with the width and height specified in the provided SCStreamConfiguration. I could be setting the size explicitly by reading SCWindow.frame or SCContentFilter.contentRect and multiplying the width and height by SCContentFilter.pointPixelScale , but it won't work if I want to keep the window shadow with SCStreamConfiguration.ignoreShadowsSingleWindow = false. Is there a way and what's the best way to take full-resolution screenshots of the correct size? import Cocoa import ScreenCaptureKit class ViewController: NSViewController { @IBOutlet weak var imageView: NSImageView! override func viewDidAppear() { imageView.imageScaling = .scaleProportionallyUpOrDown view.wantsLayer = true view.layer!.backgroundColor = .init(red: 1, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 1) Task { let windows = try await SCShareableContent.excludingDesktopWindows(false, onScreenWindowsOnly: true).windows let window = windows[0] let filter = SCContentFilter(desktopIndependentWindow: window) let configuration = SCStreamConfiguration() configuration.ignoreShadowsSingleWindow = false configuration.showsCursor = false configuration.width = Int(Float(filter.contentRect.width) * filter.pointPixelScale) configuration.height = Int(Float(filter.contentRect.height) * filter.pointPixelScale) print(filter.contentRect) let windowImage = try await SCScreenshotManager.captureImage(contentFilter: filter, configuration: configuration) imageView.image = NSImage(cgImage: windowImage, size: CGSize(width: windowImage.width, height: windowImage.height)) } } }

When making a call to https://api.music.apple.com/v1/me/library/artists to get a user's library artists, it returns the following (as an example): [ { id: 'r.FCwruQb', type: 'library-artists', href: '/v1/me/library/artists/r.FCwruQb?l=en-US', attributes: { name: 'A Great Big World' } }, { id: 'r.7VSWOgj', type: 'library-artists', href: '/v1/me/library/artists/r.7VSWOgj?l=en-US', attributes: { name: 'Aaliyah' } }, ... ] If I try and use an artist id from that retuned data to look up additional information about the artist by calling https://api.music.apple.com/v1/catalog/us/artists/{id}, it fails. User Library Artists don't seem to equal Catalog Artists. It'd be great if there was a way to use these interchangeably. Am I missing something?

I am using Apple's original Lightning Digital AV-adapter (Lightning-to-HDMI dongle) to connect my iPhone to an external display via a HDMI cable. I need to synchronize rendering with the external display's refresh rate, so I create a new CADisplayLink tied to the external display's UIScreen: UIScreen.screens[externalDisplayIdx].displayLink(withTarget:, selector:). The callback is being called regularly, but with increasing delay relative to the CADisplayLink.timestamp, so the next time the callback is called, I have less and less time to draw the next frame (see the snippet below). Assuming 60 FPS, the value of secondsTillDeadline starts at an arbitrary value in the range of approx -0.0001 to 0.0166667, and then it slowly decreases towards zero (and for a brief period it goes into small negative numbers). Once it reaches zero, it flips back to 0.0166667 and continues to decrease again. This cycle repeats indefinitely. Changing the external display's resolution (UIScreen's mode) or the CADisplayLink's preferredFrameRateRange to a lower FPS does not seem to have any effect on the temporal drifting (even the rate of change seem to be the same). When I create a new CADisplayLink for the iPhone's main screen, the value of secondsTillDeadline is stable, it does not drift and it is very close to 0.0166667, as expected. Is this drift caused by the external monitor or by Apple's Lightning-to-HDMI dongle ...or is the problem somewhere else? Can the drifting be stopped? func onDisplayLinkUpdate(displayLink: CADisplayLink) { // Gradually decreases from 0.01667 to -0.0001, then flips back to 0.01667 and continues to decrease let secondsTillDeadline = displayLink.targetTimestamp - CACurrentMediaTime() }

I am working to update a live blog in Apple News. As far as I know there is an update endpoint to update a content in Apple News. Is there any feature in Apple News to trigger an event when the original content updated and pull the updated content?

In iOS 26, AVSpeechSynthesizer read Mandarin into Cantonese pronunciation. No matter how you set the language, and change the settings of my phone system, it doesn't work. let utterance = AVSpeechUtterance(string: "你好啊") //let voice = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice(language: "zh-CN") // not work let voice = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice(language: "zh-Hans") // not work too utterance.voice = voice et synth = AVSpeechSynthesizer() synth.speak(utterance)

On an iPhone running iOS 26 beta 5, url(for: FilePath("subdir/asset.mov")) most always throws this error: The URL for “subdir/asset.mov” couldn’t be retrieved: “asset.mov” couldn’t be copied to “subdir” because an item with the same name already exists. Yet, contents(at: FilePath("subdir/asset.mov")) always returns Data for a playable AVMovie. How can I avoid this url(for:) error? The asset pack in question is downloaded. The error persists even after pack deletion, redownload, relaunch, and combinations of that. // Assets repo root subdir.aar subdir/asset.mov subdir/asset_thumb.heic subdir/Manifest.json // Manifest.json { "assetPackID": "subdir", "downloadPolicy": { "onDemand": {} }, "fileSelectors": [ { "directory": "subdir", }, ], "platforms": [ "iOS", "visionOS" ] } xcrun ba-package subdir/Manifest.json -o subdir.aar xcrun ba-serve --host 192.168.0.10 -p 443 subdir.aar

My app is properly configured with MusicKit. I've generated a JWT using my valid credentials (Team ID, Key ID, private key), and I’ve ensured the time settings are correct via NTP. When I call: https://api.music.apple.com/v1/catalog/jp/search?term=ado&amp;types=songs I consistently receive a 500 Internal Server Error. The JWT is generated using ES256 with valid iat and exp values. I’ve confirmed the token decodes properly using jwt.io, and it's passed via the Authorization: Bearer header. Things I’ve confirmed: Key ID, Team ID, private key are correct App ID is configured with MusicKit capability JWT is generated and signed correctly macOS time is synced via NTP Used both curl and Python to test — same result Is there anything else I should check on the Apple Developer Console (like App ID, Certificates, or provisioning profile)? Or could this be a backend issue on Apple’s side? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Add RPSystemBroadcastPickerView to the app, After clicking, no method of SampleHandler is triggered

It's been well over a year since Apple added favoriting of artists back to Apple Music (the little star icon on an artist page), but yet I still haven't seen a way to get this data from an authenticated user from Music API. I was expecting to hear something about this during the WWDC, but there have been no announcements that I've caught. Has anyone else heard anything? People assume when they provide access to their Apple Music account that we can actually get to the data in their Apple Music account, and we end up looking a little dumb not being able to get this core data.

Hello everyone, I'm working on implementing a screen sharing feature using RPSystemBroadcastPickerView and a Broadcast Upload Extension to share the entire app screen in an iOS application. The Broadcast Upload Extension is set up following Apple's ReplayKit guidelines. However, I’m encountering an issue during the broadcast startup sequence: ❗ Problem Description The Screen Broadcast UI appears as expected I tap “Start Broadcast” The countdown (3 → 2 → 1) completes Then it immediately reverts to the "Start Broadcast" screen, and screen sharing does not begin No error messages are displayed None of the extension lifecycle methods (broadcastStarted(withSetupInfo:), processSampleBuffer, etc.) are called There are no logs or crash reports, neither in the main app nor in the extension ✅ What Has Been Verified Info.plist of the Broadcast Upload Extension includes: NSExtensionPointIdentifier = com.apple.broadcast-services-upload NSExtensionPrincipalClass set correctly RPBroadcastProcessMode = RPBroadcastProcessModeSampleBuffer preferredExtension is set properly to the extension’s bundle identifier Extension is listed in the main app's build settings under "Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content" ⚠️ Additional Concern We noticed that in Xcode (latest version), the Broadcast Upload Extension is listed under "Embedded Frameworks" with the setting "Embed Without Signing", and there is no option to change it to "Embed & Sign". We're wondering if this could be the reason the extension fails to launch correctly at runtime, despite being detected by the broadcast picker. ❓ Questions Has anyone faced similar issues where the broadcast never starts despite correct setup? Could the "Embed Without Signing" be causing the system to silently cancel or ignore the extension at runtime? Are there any provisioning profile or entitlement requirements specific to Broadcast Upload Extensions that might trigger this behavior silently? Any insights, suggestions, or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hi Apple Music API / MusicKit / MediaPlayer Team, Similar to the currentPlaybackRate keeps the same pitch, it would be great to have a currentPlaybackPitch parameter as well. Alternatively, adding a preservesPitch parameter would also work. I see that iOS 26 AutoMix on Apple Music currently does pitch shifting during music transitions, so maybe this is something that could be exposed on the later betas of iOS 26? Main feature request we get is to have simple pitch changes to Apple Music we play through our app. Is this being considered?

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with currentPlaybackRate in release version of iOS 15.4? In my particular case this is using MPMusicPlayerController.applicationQueuePlayer. I've always had issues controlling this property reliably but from what I can see it is now completely non-operational in 15.4. I've isolated this behavior in a trivial project, and will file a radar, but hoping others may have some insight first. FWIW- This is my trivial test case: class ViewController: UIViewController {     lazy var player: MPMusicPlayerApplicationController = {         let player = MPMusicPlayerController.applicationQueuePlayer         player.repeatMode = .none         player.shuffleMode = .off         player.beginGeneratingPlaybackNotifications()         return player     }()     override func viewDidLoad() {         super.viewDidLoad()         NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: .MPMusicPlayerControllerPlaybackStateDidChange, object: nil, queue: .main) { [weak self] notification in             guard let notificationPlayer = notification.object as? MPMusicPlayerApplicationController,                   notificationPlayer === self?.player else {                 return             }                          debugPrint("Player state now: \(notificationPlayer.playbackState)")         }     }     @IBAction func goAction(_ sender: Any) {         guard let item = MPMediaQuery.songs().items?.randomElement() else {             debugPrint("Unable to access media items")             return         }         debugPrint("Now playing item: \(item.title ?? "")")         player.setQueue(with: [item.playbackStoreID])         player.prepareToPlay() { error in             guard error == nil else {                 debugPrint("Player error: \(error!.localizedDescription)")                 return             }             DispatchQueue.main.async { [weak self] in                 self?.player.play()             }         }     } @IBAction func slowAction(_ sender: Any) {         debugPrint("Setting currentPlaybackRate to 0.5")         player.currentPlaybackRate = 0.5         checkPlaybackRate()     } @IBAction func fastAction(_ sender: Any) {         debugPrint("Setting currentPlaybackRate to 1.5")         player.currentPlaybackRate = 1.5         checkPlaybackRate()     } func checkPlaybackRate(afterSeconds delay: TimeInterval = 1.0) {         DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + delay) {             debugPrint("After \(delay) seconds currentPlaybackRate now: \(self.player.currentPlaybackRate)")         }     } } Typical console output: "Now playing item: I Know You Know" "Player state now: MPMusicPlaybackState(rawValue: 2)" "Player state now: MPMusicPlaybackState(rawValue: 1)" "Setting currentPlaybackRate to 1.5" "After 1.0 seconds currentPlaybackRate now: 1.0" "Setting currentPlaybackRate to 0.5" "After 1.0 seconds currentPlaybackRate now: 1.0"
