It sounds simple but searching for the name "Favorite Songs" is a non-starter because it's called different names in different countries, even if I specify "&l=en_us" on the query. So is there another property, relationship or combination thereof which I can use to tell me when I've found the right playlist? Properties I've looked at so far: canEdit: will always be false so narrows things down a little inFavorites: not helpful as it depends on whether the user has favourite the favourites playlist, so not relevant hasCatalog: seems always true so again may narrow things down a bit isPublic: doesn't help Adding the catalog relationship doesn't seem to show anything immediately useful either. Can anyone help? Ideally I'd like to see this as a "kind" or "type" as it has different properties to other playlists, but frankly I'll take anything at this point.

After updating to iOS 18.5, we’ve observed that outgoing audio from our app intermittently stops being transmitted during VoIP calls using AVAudioSession configured with .playAndRecord and .voiceChat. The session is set active without errors, and interruptions are handled correctly, yet audio capture suddenly ceases mid-call. This was not observed in earlier iOS versions (≤ 18.4). We’d like to confirm if there have been any recent changes in AVAudioSession, CallKit, or related media handling that could affect audio input behavior during long-running calls. func configureForVoIPCall() throws { try setCategory( .playAndRecord, mode: .voiceChat, options: [.allowBluetooth, .allowBluetoothA2DP, .defaultToSpeaker]) try setActive(true) }

I’m building a music app using Apple Music streaming via ApplicationMusicPlayer. My goal is to decrease the volume of the current song during the last 10 seconds, and when the next track begins, restore the volume to its normal level. I know that ApplicationMusicPlayer doesn’t expose a volume API, and I want to avoid triggering the system volume HUD. ✅ Using Apple Music streaming (not local files) ❓ Is it possible to implement per-track fade-out/fade-in logic with ApplicationMusicPlayer? Appreciate any clarification or official guidance!

Hi everyone, I’m working on an iOS MusicKit app that overlays a metronome on top of Apple Music playback, using ApplicationMusicPlayer. To line the clicks up perfectly I’d like access to low-level audio analysis data—ideally a waveform / spectrogram or beat grid—while the track is playing. I’ve noticed that several approved DJ apps (e.g. djay, Serato, rekordbox) can already: • Display detailed scrolling waveforms of Apple Music songs • Scratch, loop or time-stretch those tracks in real time That implies they receive decoded PCM frames or at least high-resolution analysis data from Apple Music under a special entitlement. My questions: Does MusicKit (or any public framework) expose real-time audio buffers, FFT bins, or beat markers for streaming Apple Music content? If not, is there an Apple program or entitlement that developers can apply for—similar to the “DJ with Apple Music” initiative—to gain that deeper access? Where can I find official documentation or a point of contact for this kind of request? I’ve searched the docs and forums but only see standard MusicKit playback APIs, which don’t appear to expose raw audio for DRM-protected songs. Any guidance, links or insider tips on the proper application process would be hugely appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to permanently disable PHASE SDK logging? It seems to be a lot chattier than Apple's other SDKs. While developing a RealityKit app that uses AudioPlaybackController, I must manually hide the PHASE SDK log output several times each day so I can see my app's log messages. Thank you.

This is an issue with the Insta360 Flow Pro 2. My iOS app uses DockKit to control the gimbal; in particular, my app disables tracking and sends angular velocity commands to control the gimbal's orientation. I only try to modify the yaw (rotation around the vertical axis); never the pitch or yaw. Note that I don't send the gimbal to a particular orientation directly; I modify the velocity. Everything works great for a long period of time: typically for a continuous run of 4-6 hours; in the most recent case, I managed about 36 hours of continous operation before the following problem occurred. I came back to check on the system, and because no visual activity had occurred in the camera's field of view for a while, the phone had commanded the gimbal to rotate back to a yaw angle of 0 degrees. So the phone in the gimbal should have been looking straight ahead (i.e. the 0 degree yaw position), but it was definitely looking off at an angle. I've seen this twice now. The first time, when it should have been looking straight ahead, it was in fact looking 60 degrees off center. This time (caught on video, see below), it was off by 22 degrees from center. Here's the weird part: the gimbal reports this way off center positioning as zero degrees (well close enough to zero, like 0.2 or something that's fine). But, mechanically, the gimbal still knows where zero degrees is: if we double click on the trigger of the Flow Pro 2, which is supposed to reset the gimbal to 0 degrees yaw and pitch, the gimbal responds correctly and reorients to a 0 degree position. However, the yaw values it reports are not zero, but as shown in my video, 22 degrees off axis or so. Power cycling the gimbal and restarting immediately fixes the problem. Also, I switched from my app to the Insta360 app, which caused the phone to flip from landscape to portrait, then when I returned to my app and switched back to landscape, the gimbal now started reporting correct yaw angles. Is there a possibility this is a bug in the DockKit framework? Has anyone seen this? I have a case open with Insta360, but although it's clearly a software issue, it's not clear if it's in Insta360's code or the DockKit layer. Any ideas for how I can get out of this mode? My concern is that the phone is in a tripod about 10' off the floor, and not very accessible. Also, if all goes well, we may have about 50 of these systems running, and having to fix them one by one after a few hours is not good. For a demonstration of this bug, see the following video: https://octoparry.com/offset.MOV Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello, We're seeing an intermittent issue when playing back FairPlay-protected HLS downloads while the device is offline. Assets are downloaded using AVAggregateAssetDownloadTask with FairPlay protection. After download, asset.assetCache.isPlayableOffline == true. On first playback attempt (offline), ~8% of downloads fail. Retrying playback always works. We recreate the asset and player on each attempt. During the playback setup, we try to load variants via: try await asset.load(.variants) This call sometimes fails with: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1009 “The Internet connection appears to be offline.” UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x105654a00 {Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1009 “The Internet connection appears to be offline.” UserInfo={NSDescription=The Internet connection appears to be offline.}}, NSErrorFailingURLStringKey=file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/2DDF9D7C-9197-46BE-8690-C23EE75C9E90/Library/com.apple.UserManagedAssets.XVvqfh/Baggage_9DD4E2D3F9C0E68F.movpkg/, NSErrorFailingURLKey=file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/2DDF9D7C-9197-46BE-8690-C23EE75C9E90/Library/com.apple.UserManagedAssets.XVvqfh/Baggage_9DD4E2D3F9C0E68F.movpkg/, NSURL=file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/2DDF9D7C-9197-46BE-8690-C23EE75C9E90/Library/com.apple.UserManagedAssets.XVvqfh/Baggage_9DD4E2D3F9C0E68F.movpkg/, AVErrorFailedDependenciesKey=( “assetProperty_HLSAlternates” ), NSLocalizedDescription=The Internet connection appears to be offline.} This variant load is used to determine available audio tracks, check for Dolby support, and apply user language preferences. After this step, the AVPlayerItem also fails via Combine’s publisher for .status. However, retrying the entire process immediately after (same offline conditions, same asset path, new AVURLAsset) results in successful playback. Assets are represented using the following class: public class DownloadedAsset: AVURLAsset { public let id: String public let localFileUrl: URL public let fairplayLicenseUrlString: String? public let drmToken: String? var isProtected: Bool { return fairplayLicenseUrlString != nil } public init(id: String, localFileUrl: URL, fairplayLicenseUrlString: String?, drmToken: String?) { self.id = id self.localFileUrl = localFileUrl self.fairplayLicenseUrlString = fairplayLicenseUrlString self.drmToken = drmToken super.init(url: localFileUrl, options: nil) } } We use user-selected quality levels to control bitrate and multichannel (e.g. Dolby 5.1) downloads: let downloadQuality = UserDefaults.standard.downloadVideoQuality let bitrate: Int let shouldDownloadMultichannelTracks: Bool switch downloadQuality { case .dataSaver: shouldDownloadMultichannelTracks = false bitrate = 596564 case .standard: shouldDownloadMultichannelTracks = false bitrate = 1503844 case .best: shouldDownloadMultichannelTracks = true bitrate = 7038970 } var selections = multichannelIdentifiedMediaSelections if !shouldDownloadMultichannelTracks { selections = selections.filter { !$0.isMultichannel } } let task = session.aggregateAssetDownloadTask( with: asset, mediaSelections: selections.map { $0.mediaSelection }, assetTitle: title, assetArtworkData: nil, options: [AVAssetDownloadTaskMinimumRequiredMediaBitrateKey: bitrate] ) Seen on devices running iOS 16, iOS 17, and iOS 18. What could cause the initial failure of an otherwise valid, offline-ready FairPlay HLS asset? Could .load(.variants) internally trigger a failed network resolution, even when offline? Is there an internal caching or initialization behavior in AVFoundation that might explain why the second attempt works? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to plan out development of an app and am wondering if it is possible to have user generated content automatically populate into a custom shazamkit catalogue and be able to query this catalogue non-locally? Storing all the submissions locally would obviously not scale.

Some users have reported an error editing portrait photo assets in my app: The operation couldn’t be completed. (CINonLocalizedDescriptionKey error 3.) What is that error? Will affected photos always encounter this error (due to data corruption for example) or can it be resolved in a future iOS update? FB16241301

Hello, I have a command line application that uses iTunesLibrary to "save" the state of what I have listened to. I have it run every night via a LaunchAgent. You can see the source here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json Prior to Sequoia it would run nightly. I'd just have to grant it access to the Music library once, and it would be fine thereafter. However with Sequoia it requires UI interaction to grant it access every time. This makes it no longer run unattended overnight, defeating its purpose. I have the console logs of when this happens. You can see it in my issue tracking it here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json/issues/410 One thing that makes me wonder is that it is a command line application, not a bundle. How do I make a command line application get access to MusicKit / iTunesLibrary, and keep it thereafter? I'd like to get my pre-Sequoia behavior back. I've filed FB15592660 too. I've granted it access to run in the background, as well as access to my Music library (please see attached screenshots).

Use case: When SharePlay -ing a fully immersive 3D scene (e.g. a virtual stage), I would like to shine lights on specific Personas, so they show up brighter when someone in the scene is recording the feed (think a camera person in the scene wearing Vision Pro). Note: This spotlight effect only needs to render in the camera person's headset and does NOT need to be journaled or shared. Before I dive into this, my technical question: Can environmental and/or scene lighting affect Persona brightness in a SharePlay? If not, is there a way to programmatically make Personas "brighter" when recording? My screen recordings always seem to turn out darker than what's rendered in environment, and manually adjusting the contrast tends to blow out the details in a Persona's face (especially in visionOS 26).

Keywords: FairPlay, FPS Certificate, DRM, FairPlay Streaming, license server Hi all, We are currently using FairPlay Streaming in production and already have an FPS certificate in place. However, the passphrase for the existing FPS certificate has unfortunately been lost. We are now considering reissuing a new FPS certificate, and I would like to confirm a few points before proceeding: 1️⃣ If we reissue a new FPS certificate, will the existing certificate be automatically revoked? Or will it remain valid until its original expiration date? 2️⃣ Is it possible to have both the newly issued and the existing certificates valid at the same time? In other words, can we serve DRM licenses using either certificate depending on the packaging or client? 3️⃣ Are there any caveats or best practices we should be aware of when reissuing an FPS certificate? For example, would existing packaged content become unplayable, or would CDN/packaging server configurations need to be updated carefully? Since this affects our production environment, we would like to minimize any service disruption or compatibility issues. Unfortunately, when we contacted Apple support directly, we were advised to post this question here in the Forums for additional guidance. Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

AVCaptureVideoDataOutput.preparesCellularRadioForNetworkConnection requires com.apple.developer.avfoundation.video-data-output-prepares-cellular-radio-for-machine-readable-code-scanning. But I cannot acquire its entitlement. I can't find its entitlement on 'Certificates, Identifiers &amp; Profiles'. Any solutions?

The two ScreenCaptureKit WWDC22 sessions show how to capture with the new framework but the retina factor is hardcoded to 2 in SCStreamConfiguration. When using on a non-retina display, the screencapture is floating on the upper-left corner of the image buffer. There does not seem to be a simple way to retrieve the retina factor from the SCShareableContent data (when configuring the capture). When processing the streaming output, the SCStreamFrameInfo attachment is supposed to have a scaleFactor property but .scaleFactor does not return a value. I have found out that the attachement dictionary contains SCStreamUpdateFrameDisplayResolution. This entry gives me the retina factor but it is not an official SCStreamFrameInfo key. I list the keys to access it. What is the proper way with ScreenCapture to handle the retina factors ?

I bought two "Apple USB-C to Headphone Jack Adapters". Upon closer inspection, they seems to be of different generations: The one with product ID 0x110a on top is working fine. The one with product ID 0x110b has two issues: There is a short but loud click noise on the headphone when I connect it to the iPad. When I play audio using AVAudioPlayer the first half of a second or so is cut off. Here's how I'm playing the audio: audioPlayer = try AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: url) audioPlayer?.delegate = self audioPlayer?.prepareToPlay() audioPlayer?.play() Is this a known issue? Am I doing something wrong?

Hi All. I'm working on Single-Sign-On feature in my application to let customers sign into their TV Provider. I need to add Video Subscriber SSO entitlement (com.apple.developer.video-subscriber-single-sign-on) to the app, but I found out that it's a special entitlement, need to contact Apple to enable it for my Apple account. On https://developer.apple.com/account I navigated to Support -&gt; Contact Us -&gt; Development and Technical -&gt; Entitlements and ask in the email about missing entitlement (ticket ID 102478794279). The support team couldn't help me, they redirected me to the operations team. I've been waiting for a few months now but they inform me to keep waiting. Is there a better way to contact Apple and get Video Subscriber SSO entitlement in an efficient way?

Hello Apple Developer Community, I am seeking clarification on the intended display behavior of HLS audio tracks within the iOS 26 (or current beta) native player, specifically concerning the NAME and LANGUAGE attributes of the EXT-X-MEDIA tag. In our HLS manifests, we define alternative audio tracks using EXT-X-MEDIA tags, like so: #EXT-X-MEDIA:TYPE=AUDIO,GROUP-ID="audio",LANGUAGE="ja",NAME="AUDIO-1",DEFAULT=YES,AUTOSELECT=YES,URI="audio_ja.m3u8" #EXT-X-MEDIA:TYPE=AUDIO,GROUP-ID="audio",LANGUAGE="ja",NAME="AUDIO-2",URI="audio_en.m3u8" Our observation is that when an audio track is selected and its name is displayed in the native iOS media controls (e.g., Control Center or within a full-screen video player's UI), the value specified in the NAME attribute ("AUDIO-1", "AUDIO-2") does not seem to be used. Instead, the display appears to derive from the LANGUAGE attribute ("ja", "en"), often showing the system's localized string for that language (e.g., "Japanese", "English"). We would like to understand the official or intended behavior regarding this. Is it the expected behavior for the iOS native player to prioritize the LANGUAGE attribute (or its localized equivalent) over the NAME attribute for displaying the selected audio track's label? If this is the intended design, what is the recommended best practice for developers who wish to present a custom, human-readable name for audio tracks (beyond the standard language name) in the native iOS UI? Are there any specific AVPlayer properties or AVMediaSelectionOption considerations that would allow more granular control over this display, or is this entirely managed by the system based on the LANGUAGE attribute? Any insights or official guidance on this behavior in iOS 26 (and potentially previous versions) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance.

I am work an app development on an app which request an audio function in background as an alert sound. during debug testing , the function work fine, but once I testing standalone without debugging , The function not work , it will play out the sound when I back to app. does any way to trace the issues ?

In my app I use AVAssetReaderTrackOutput to extract PCM audio from a user-provided video or audio file and display it as a waveform. Recently a user reported that the waveform is not in sync with his video, and after receiving the video I noticed that the waveform is in fact double as long as the video duration, i.e. it shows the audio in slow-motion, so to speak. Until now I was using CMFormatDescription.audioStreamBasicDescription.mSampleRate which for this particular user video returns 22'050. But in this case it seems that this value is wrong... because the audio file has two audio channels with different sample rates, as returned by CMFormatDescription.audioFormatList.map({ $0.mASBD.mSampleRate }) The first channel has a sample rate of 44'100, the second one 22'050. If I use the first sample rate, the waveform is perfectly in sync with the video. The problem is given by the fact that the ratio between the audio data length and the sample rate multiplied by the audio duration is 8, double the ratio for the first audio file (4). In the code below this ratio is given by Double(length) / (sampleRate * asset.duration.seconds) When commenting out the line with the sampleRate variable definition in the code below and uncommenting the following line, the ratios for both audio files are 4, which is the expected result. I would expect audioStreamBasicDescription to return the correct sample rate, i.e. the one used by AVAssetReaderTrackOutput, which (I think) somehow merges the stereo tracks. The documentation is sparse, and in particular it’s not documented whether the lower or higher sample rate is used; in this case, it seems like the higher one is used, but audioStreamBasicDescription for some reason returns the lower one. Does anybody know why this is the case or how I should extract the sample rate of the produced PCM audio data? Should I always take the higher one? I created FB19620455. let openPanel = NSOpenPanel() openPanel.allowedContentTypes = [.audiovisualContent] openPanel.runModal() let url = openPanel.urls[0] let asset = AVURLAsset(url: url) let assetTrack = asset.tracks(withMediaType: .audio)[0] let assetReader = try!
