Hi, I'm relatively new to iOS development and kindly ask for some feedback on a strategy to achieve this desired behavior in my app. My Question: What would be the best strategy for sound effect playback when an app is in the background with precise timing? Is this even possible? Context: I created a basic countdown timer app (targeting iOS 17 with Swift/SwiftUI.). Countdown sessions can last up to 30-60 mins. When the timer is started it progresses through a series of sub-intervals and plays a short sound for each one. I used AVAudioPlayer and everything works fine when the app is in the foreground. I'm considering switching to AVAudioEngine b/c precise timing is very important and the AIs tell me this would have better precision. I'm already setting "App plays audio or streams audio/video using AirPlay" in my Plist, and have configured: AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(.playback, mode: .default, options: .mixWithOthers) Curiously, when testing on my iPhone 13 mini, sounds sometimes still play when the app is in the background, but not always. What I've considered: Background Tasks: Would they make any sense for this use-case? Seems like not if the allowed time is short & limited by the system. Pre-scheduling all Sounds: Not sure this would even work and seems like a lot of memory would be needed (could be hundreds of intervals). ActivityKit Alerts: works but with a ~50ms delay which is too long for my purposes. Pre-Render all SFX to 1 large audio file: Seems like a lot of work and processing time and probably not worth it. I hope there's a better solution. I'd really appreciate any feedback.

https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/768776 Swift concurrency is an important part of my day-to-day job. I created the following document for an internal presentation, and I figured that it might be helpful for others. If you have questions or comments, put them in a new thread here on DevForums.

Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" Swift Concurrency Proposal Index This post summarises the Swift Evolution proposals that went into the Swift concurrency design. It covers the proposal that are implemented in Swift 6.2, plus a few additional ones that aren’t currently available. The focus is here is the Swift Evolution proposals. For general information about Swift concurrency, see the documentation referenced by Concurrency Resources. Swift 6.0 The following Swift Evolution proposals form the basis of the Swift 6.0 concurrency design. SE-0176 Enforce Exclusive Access to Memory link: SE-0176 notes: This defines the “Law of Exclusivity”, a critical foundation for both serial and concurrent code.

SE-0420 Inheritance of actor isolation link: SE-0420, commentary introduces: #isolation, optional isolated parameters notes: This is what makes it possible to iterate over an async stream in an isolated async function. SE-0421 Generalize effect polymorphism for AsyncSequence and AsyncIteratorProtocol link: SE-0421, commentary notes: Previously AsyncSequence used an experimental mechanism to support throwing and non-throwing sequences. This moves it off that. Instead, it uses an extra Failure generic parameter and typed throws to achieve the same result. This allows it to finally support a primary associated type. Yay! SE-0423 Dynamic actor isolation enforcement from non-strict-concurrency contexts link: SE-0423, commentary introduces: @preconcurrency conformance notes: This adds a number of dynamic actor isolation checks (think assumeIsolated(…)) to close strict concurrency holes that arise when you interact with legacy code.

SE-0449 Allow nonisolated to prevent global actor inference link: SE-0449, commentary notes: This is a straightforward extension to the number of places you can apply nonisolated. Swift 6.2 Xcode 26 beta has two new build settings: Approachable Concurrency enables the following feature flags: DisableOutwardActorInference, GlobalActorIsolatedTypesUsability, InferIsolatedConformances, InferSendableFromCaptures, and NonisolatedNonsendingByDefault. Default Actor Isolation controls SE-0466 Swift 6.2, still in beta, has the following additions. SE-0371 Isolated synchronous deinit link: SE-0371, commentary introduces: isolated deinit notes: Allows a deinitialiser to access non-sendable isolated state, lifting a restriction imposed by SE-0327.

SE-0462 Task Priority Escalation APIs link: SE-0462 introduces: withTaskPriorityEscalationHandler(…) notes: Code that uses structured concurrency benefits from priority boosts automatically. This proposal exposes APIs so that code using unstructured concurrency can do the same. SE-0463 Import Objective-C completion handler parameters as @Sendable link: SE-0463 notes: This is a welcome resolution to a source of much confusion. SE-0466 Control default actor isolation inference link: SE-0466, commentary availability: not officially approved, but a de facto part of Swift 6.2 introduces: -default-isolation compiler flag notes: This is a major component of the above-mentioned vision document. SE-0468 Hashable conformance for Async(Throwing)Stream.Continuation link: SE-0468 notes: This is an obvious benefit when you’re juggling a bunch of different async streams. SE-0469 Task Naming link: SE-0469 introduces: name, init(name:…) SE-0470 Global-actor isolated conformances link: SE-0470 availability: upcoming feature flag: InferIsolatedConformances introduces: @SomeActor protocol conformance notes: This is particularly useful when you want to conform an @MainActor type to Equatable, Hashable, and so on. SE-0471 Improved Custom SerialExecutor isolation checking for Concurrency Runtime link: SE-0471 notes: This is a welcome extension to SE-0424. SE-0472 Starting tasks synchronously from caller context link: SE-0472 introduces: immediate[Detached](…), addImmediateTask[UnlessCancelled](…), notes: This introduces the concept of an immediate task, one that initially uses the calling execution context. This is one of those things where, when you need it, you really need it. But it’s hard to summary when you might need it, so you’ll just have to read the proposal (-: In Progress The proposals in this section didn’t make Swift 6.2. SE-0406 Backpressure support for AsyncStream link: SE-0406 availability: returned for revision notes: Currently AsyncStream has very limited buffering options. This was a proposal to improve that. This feature is still very much needed, but the outlook for this proposal is hazy. My best guess is that something like this will land first in the Swift Async Algorithms package. See this thread. SE-NNNN Closure isolation control link: SE-NNNN introduces: @inheritsIsolation availability: not yet approved notes: This aims to bring the currently experimental @_inheritActorContext attribute into the language officially. It’s not clear how this will play out given the changes in SE-0461. Revision History 2025-09-02 Updated for the upcoming release Swift 6.2. 2025-04-07 Updated for the release of Swift 6.1, including a number of things that are still in progress. 2024-11-09 First post.

I recently submitted my app, Hogs, to the App Store, but it was rejected due to references to non-public symbols: _lzma_code _lzma_end I am using the LZMA compression library in my app, and these functions are part of that implementation. Here's a breakdown of my usage: Library Used: liblzma (custom wrapper around LZMA functions) Error Message: "The app references non-public symbols in Payload/Hogs.app/Hogs: _lzma_code, _lzma_end." Steps I’ve Taken: I’ve wrapped the LZMA functions in my own functions (my_lzma_code, my_lzma_end) to prevent direct references. I have checked the build settings and included -lzma in the linker flags. I’ve tried using a custom framework to encapsulate LZMA, but the issue persists. I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions on how to resolve this issue and get my app approved. Is there any workaround or adjustment I can make to avoid using these non-public symbols? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hello, I have integrated LZMA2 compression into my iOS app, Hogs, and successfully implemented compression. However, when attempting to upload the app for TestFlight, I encountered an error: "The app references non-public symbols in Payload/Hogs.app/Hogs: _lzma_code, _lzma_end." These functions are part of the LZMA compression library (specifically LZMA2). Here's a detailed description of the issue: What I Have Done: LZMA2 Integration: I integrated LZMA2 compression into the app and created a wrapper around the LZMA functions (_lzma_code, _lzma_end) to prevent direct references. App Build Configuration: I ensured the LZMA2 library is linked correctly with the -lzma flag in the linker settings. I wrapped the LZMA functions in custom functions (my_lzma_code, my_lzma_end) in an attempt to avoid using the non-public symbols directly. Error Message: During the app submission process, I received the following error: "The app references non-public symbols in Payload/Hogs.app/Hogs: _lzma_code, _lzma_end." Steps Taken to Resolve: Checked if any LZMA functions were exposed incorrectly. Ensured that all non-public symbols were properly encapsulated in a wrapper. Verified linker settings to ensure the proper inclusion of the LZMA2 library. Request: Could anyone provide suggestions or best practices to resolve this issue and avoid references to non-public symbols? Should I use a different method for linking LZMA2 or encapsulating these symbols? Thank You: I appreciate your help in resolving this issue so I can move forward with submitting the app for TestFlight.

We would like to show a user-friendly message but can not. Description: When attempting to create a duplicate passkey using the ASAuthrorizationController in iOS, the Face ID authentication times out SDK does not return a timeout specific error. Instead, it directly returns an error stating that duplicate passkey cannot be created. SDK to first handle the FaceID timeout case and provide a distinct timeout error so we can gracefully manage this scenario before the duplicate passkey validation occurs. Steps to Reproduce: Implement passkey creation flow using ASAuthorizationController. Attempt to register a duplicate passkey (e.g., using the same user ID and challenge). Let FaceID prompt timeout (do not interact with the authentication prompt).

Hi, I'm struggling to understand using Swift-C++ in the same project. I have an existing code-base that makes heavy use of Swift-Objective-C interoperability. We make use of swift classes in our project. When I enable swift-objective c interoperability I am running into numerous build errors in the generated bridging header. I'm trying to understand why these errors exist and what to do to get around them. I have a project that I've set up with some test code, and I'm running into an error here: public class Foo { let name: String public init(name: String) { self.name = name } } public class Bar { let name: String public init(name : String) { self.name = name; } public func getFoo() -> Foo { return Foo(name: self.name); } } In the header file: Unknown type name 'Foo' SWIFT_INLINE_THUNK Foo getFoo() SWIFT_SYMBOL("s:13ForestBuilder3BarC6getFooAA0E0CyF"); This error goes away if I use structs, but for the purposes of porting my codebase, I'd prefer to use classes. Do classes not play nice here? Or am I misunderstanding something. Thanks.

Decrypting Data to String Conversion failure Development environment: Xcode 15.4, macOS 14.7 Run-time configuration: iOS 15.8.1 & 16.0.1 DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM We were using objective C implementation of CCCrypt(see below) in our app earlier which we migrated to swift implementation recently. We convert the byte array that CCCrypt returns into Data, and data to string to read the decrypted value. It works perfectly fine in Objective C, whereas with new swift implementation this conversion is failing, it looks like CCCrypt is returning byte array with few non UTF8 characters and that conversion is failing in swift since Objective C is more tolerant with this conversion and converts the byte array to Data and then to string even though there are few imperfect UTF characters in the array. Objective C CCCryptorStatus CCCrypt( CCOperation op, /* kCCEncrypt, etc. / CCAlgorithm alg, / kCCAlgorithmAES128, etc. / CCOptions options, / kCCOptionPKCS7Padding, etc. */ const void *key, size_t keyLength, const void iv, / optional initialization vector */ const void dataIn, / optional per op and alg */ size_t dataInLength, void dataOut, / data RETURNED here */ size_t dataOutAvailable, size_t *dataOutMoved) API_AVAILABLE(macos(10.4), ios(2.0)); Swift Code CCCrypt(_ op: CCOperation, _ alg: CCAlgorithm, _ options: CCOptions, _ key: UnsafeRawPointer!, _ keyLength: Int, _ iv: UnsafeRawPointer!, _ dataIn: UnsafeRawPointer!, _ dataInLength: Int, _ dataOut: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!, _ dataOutAvailable: Int, _ dataOutMoved: UnsafeMutablePointer!) -> CCCryptorStatus Data to String Conversion String(data: decryptedData, encoding: .utf8) STEPS TO REPRODUCE Able to reproduce on below devices iPhone - 7 OS Version 15.8.1 iPhone 14- Pro OS Version 16.0.2 iPhone 15 iOS 18.0.1 **Decryption method return "Data" and converting into string using ".utf8" but String conversion is failing on above devices and some other devices as well.

I have been trying to integrate a UIKit view into SwiftUI, specifically a WKWebView. However, I keep encountering a does not conform to protocol error. Here's my code: import SwiftUI import WebKit struct SimpleWebView: View { var body: some View { WebViewContainerRepresentable() .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) } } struct WebViewContainerRepresentable: UIViewRepresentable { typealias UIViewType = WKWebView func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView { let webView = WKWebView() if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "index", withExtension: "html") { webView.loadFileURL(url, allowingReadAccessTo: url.deletingLastPathComponent()) } return webView } func updateUIView(_ uiView: WKWebView, context: Context) { // Updates not required for this use case } } I tried this with other views as well, and it turns out this is not WKWebView-specific. The minimum deployment version is iOS 15. Any help would be much appreciated. Let me know if I need to add any more information.

I have an xcode project which has both cpp and swift code. In one of my usecase I am passing primitive type variables from swift to cpp by reference( primitives types list here as per the new cpp-swift interop documentation) swift code: // primitive check code:Bool var x : Bool = true // When we are passing a variable as a Reference, we need to use explicitly use'&' student.PassBoolAsReferenceType (&x) // interop call to cpp code print (x) Cpp code: void Student::PassBoolAsReferenceType(bool &pValue) noexcept { std::cout << pValue << std::endl; pValue = false; } The above code fails during compilation with no clear error message "Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code" However, all the other primitive types that I tested worked for the above code like Int, Float, Double etc. Only the Bool interop fails. Can someone explain why is it not possible for bool? I m using the new interop introduced in swift 5.9.

I'm primarily an AppleScript writer and only a novice programmer, using ChatGPT to help me with the legwork. It has helped me to write a functioning app that builds a menu structure based on the scripts I have in the Scripts directory used in the script menu and then runs the applescripts. When I distribute the app to my desktop and run it, the scripts that access other apps, like InDesign will cause it to launch, but not actually do anything. I included the ids for each app in the entitlements dictionary and have given the app full disk access in system settings, but it's not functioning as I'd expect. I know there are apps like Alfred that allow you to run scripts from a keystroke, but I'm building this for others I work with so they can also access info about each script, what it does, and how to use it from the menu, as well as key commands to run them. Not sure what else to say, but if this sounds like a simple fix to anyone, please let me know.

iOS18.2 / iPhone16 pro / xcode16.2 'traitCollectionDidChange' This function has been deprecated in iOS17. However, when I debugged it, I confirmed that it is not called on iOS17, but it is called on iOS18.2. What is the reason?

iOS18.2 / iPhone 16pro / Xcode 16.2 'traitCollectionDidChange' This function has been deprecated since ios17. However, in ios18, when I changed the app to the background state or changed it to the foreground state again, it was confirmed that the function worked. It hasn't been confirmed in ios17, but why is it only confirmed in ios18?

Given the below code with Swift 6 language mode, Xcode 16.2 If running with iOS 18+: the app crashes due to _dispatch_assert_queue_fail If running with iOS 17 and below: there is a warning: warning: data race detected: @MainActor function at Swift6Playground/PublishedValuesView.swift:12 was not called on the main thread Could anyone please help explain what's wrong here? import SwiftUI import Combine @MainActor class PublishedValuesViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var count = 0 @Published var content: String = "NA" private var cancellables: Set<AnyCancellable> = [] func start() async { let publisher = $count .map { String(describing: $0) } .removeDuplicates() for await value in publisher.values { content = value } } } struct PublishedValuesView: View { @ObservedObject var viewModel: PublishedValuesViewModel var body: some View { Text("Published Values: \(viewModel.content)") .task { await viewModel.start() } } }

Hi There, I have a iOS App which has been published and purely managing data by SwiftData. I use following simple codes everywhere in Views: ... @Query var items: [Item] .... if let firstItem = items.first( where: {...}) { ... Then I encountered crash at Query that _items.wrapperdValue has some errors. Then I tried to split first(where...) into ordinary way: let filteredItems = items.filter(...) if let firstItem = filteredItems.first { ... It runs OK. Is it a bug in SwiftData in 18.2 or I missed some steps to facilitate SwiftData macros?

I have been recently getting the following error seemingly randomly, when an event handler of a SwiftUI view accesses a relationship of a SwiftData model the view holds a reference to. I haven't yet found a reliable way of reproducing it: SwiftData/BackingData.swift:866: Fatal error: This model instance was invalidated because its backing data could no longer be found the store. PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: COREDATA_ID_URL), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation) What could cause this error? Could you suggest me a workaround?

Does SwiftUI now support the ability for a chart to have two different Y Axes? ChaptGPT seems to think it does, but I keep getting compiler errors in XCode.

I’m experiencing a crash at runtime when trying to extract audio from a video. This issue occurs on both iOS 18 and earlier versions.
