Our game application is developed based on StoreKit 1, and an exception occurs on iOS 26.4: after players complete a payment, the finishTransaction method fails to properly remove the transaction from the SKPaymentQueue; as a result, when players restart the app, the system still triggers the retry process for this transaction (reconciliation of unpaid orders). Has anyone encountered this issue? If there is a solution, we would appreciate it if you could share it with us.

Hey there, Can we bundle our app with our own version of SQLite with extensions that we want. From what I've seen, we aren't allowed to add extensions to the built in IOS SQLite, so would this be the only way to use extensions. I ask this because I want to use the spell fix extension. I couldn't find a lot of people talking about adding SQLite extensions. Thank you!

Dear Apple Support Team, Hello! I am currently developing the in-app subscription functionality using Apple IAP API and have encountered a serious technical issue while processing subscription data. I would like to report this issue to you. Issue Description: When calling the subscription API endpoint, the same OriginalTransactionId returns inconsistent results. Specifically, a particular transaction ID (let's call it TransactionId_A) should belong to the subscription order with OriginalTransactionId_A, but it is currently incorrectly associated with OriginalTransactionId_B. This issue severely affects our ability to accurately manage and process subscription data. Here are the relevant log details for your reference: API Endpoint Requested: https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/subscriptions/{TransactionId_A} (Note: The link is a placeholder for the actual API endpoint.) Log Information on February 21, 2025, at 09:40:09: { "AppAccountToken": "{AppAccountToken}", "BundleId": "{BundleId}", "Currency": "CNY", "Environment": "Production", "ExpiresDate": {ExpiresDate}, "InAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED", "IsUpgraded": false, "OfferDiscountType": "", "OfferIdentifier": "", "OfferType": 0, "OriginalPurchaseDate": {OriginalPurchaseDate}, "OriginalTransactionId": "{OriginalTransactionId_A}", "Price": {Price}, "ProductId": "{ProductId}", "PurchaseDate": {PurchaseDate}, "Quantity": 1, "RevocationDate": 0, "RevocationReason": 0, "SignedDate": {SignedDate}, "Storefront": "CHN", "StorefrontId": {StorefrontId}, "SubscriptionGroupIdentifier": "{SubscriptionGroupIdentifier}", "TransactionId": "{TransactionId_A}", "TransactionReason": "PURCHASE", "Type": "Auto-Renewable Subscription", "WebOrderLineItemId": "{WebOrderLineItemId}" } Log Information on March 21, 2025, at 09:38:49: { "AppAccountToken": "{AppAccountToken}", "BundleId": "{BundleId}", "Currency": "CNY", "Environment": "Production", "ExpiresDate": {ExpiresDate}, "InAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED", "IsUpgraded": false, "OfferDiscountType": "", "OfferIdentifier": "", "OfferType": 0, "OriginalPurchaseDate": {OriginalPurchaseDate}, "OriginalTransactionId": "{OriginalTransactionId_B}", "Price": {Price}, "ProductId": "{ProductId}", "PurchaseDate": {PurchaseDate}, "Quantity": 1, "RevocationDate": 0, "RevocationReason": 0, "SignedDate": {SignedDate}, "Storefront": "CHN", "StorefrontId": {StorefrontId}, "SubscriptionGroupIdentifier": "{SubscriptionGroupIdentifier}", "TransactionId": "{TransactionId_A}", "TransactionReason": "PURCHASE", "Type": "Auto-Renewable Subscription", "WebOrderLineItemId": "{WebOrderLineItemId}" } From the above logs, it is evident that the same transaction (TransactionId_A) returns different OriginalTransactionId values at different times, which is clearly not expected and severely impacts our ability to correctly process and manage subscription data. I hope you can address and investigate this issue as soon as possible. If you need any further information or assistance, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your support! Best regards!

Hello there, I have a problem reaching the CloudKit dashboard. Every time I login, the login successes but then I get the error: An error has caused this web page to stop working correctly. This also happens when I click on the Button CloudKit dashboard. Then I can reload the page, but the same errors occurs again and again. Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much

Just wanted to clarify some expected behaviors here. It seems that there are two distinct behaviors for Live Activity flows for freshly installed apps. When you start a Live Activity for the first time and the user hasn't yet clicked on Allow/Don't Allow in the activity interface, there are two different sequences: Starting a Live Activity locally Request a Live Activity locally via Swift Live Activity starts .pushTokenUpdates is immediately triggered, even if the Allow/Don't Allow buttons appear under the Activity UI Starting a Live Activity via push-to-start Send a push-to-start notification to launch a Live Activity Live Activity starts .pushTokenUpdates is not triggered, and .pushToken returns nil. If a user clicks on Allow in the Activity UI, only then is .pushTokenUpdates triggered.

I've suddenly started seeing hundreds of the same block of four error messages (see attached image) when running my app on my iOS device through Xcode. I've tried Cleaning the Build folder, but I keep seeing these messages in the console but can't find anything about them. Phone is running iOS 26.1. Xcode is at 16.4. Mac is on Sequoia 15.5. The app is primarily a MapKit SwiftUI based application. Messages below: Connection error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.PerfPowerTelemetryClientRegistrationService was invalidated: Connection init failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction."

After the macOS Sequoia update, my app seems to have an issue with Bluetooth communication between macOS and iOS that uses CoreBluetooth for Central-Peripheral communication. Setup: The iPhone (in my case: iPhone 14 Pro with iOS 18.0 (22A3354)) acts as the Central, and the Mac (in my case: 14" MacBook Pro 2023 with macOS 15.0 (24A335)) as the Peripheral. I’ve implemented a mechanism where the Central (iPhone) sends a message to the Peripheral (Mac) every 15 seconds to keep the connection alive (Because it needs to wait for notify characteristic updates). I never noticed this kind of issue before, but with macOS Sequoia I get it permanently. Issue: The connection drops unexpectedly after a period of time (sometimes 20 seconds, sometimes a few minutes) with CBErrorDomain - code 6: The connection has timed out unexpectedly. Sample Code: Peripheral (Mac): ContentView (Peripheral).txt ContentViewModel (Peripheral).txt Central (iPhone): ContentView (Central).txt ContentViewModel (Central).txt Reproduce: I attached sample code including the Central-Sample (for iPhone) and Peripheral-Sample (for Mac). Just run the Peripheral-Sample (after granting Bluetooth permissions). Then run the Central-Sample and select the Mac device in the list After selecting it should connect, discover the service & characteristic and should start writing messages to it. After some time the func centralManager(_ central: CBCentralManager, didDisconnectPeripheral peripheral: CBPeripheral, error: (any Error)?) {should get called with timed out unexpectedly error. Could anyone please look into this issue and advise on whether there’s a known bug or any workaround? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as this impacts the stability of Bluetooth communication between the devices. Thanks in advance. Logs: I also ran the console.app during this issue which got these errors (if this is helpful): console_logs.txt

Hi everyone, I am having issues with all my MacOS devices (3 so far) and push notifications. My app is in development and when i send a Test APN (From the Push Notification Console) to any of my MacOS devices (using the device token), the log is "discarded as device was offline". Fun fact, if i run the command : sudo kill apsd I receive the previously "discarded" Push notification immediately. Is it a known bug or something is wrong in my configuration ? Note : my debugProfile.entitlements is fine and the value is set to "development", i have already reloaded my certificate by cleaning the project and rebuilding (according to ChatGPT) but nothing works... I am using Xcode 26.0.1 and MacOS 26.0.1 on my 3 different MacOS devices all having this issue. Thanks in advance, Tom

Will UVC native support come for the Iphone as well? So, using external cameras with the ipad is greatly beneficial, but for the iphone, it can make it a production powerhouse! So, have there been discussions around bringing UVC support for the Iphone as well? and if so, what were your conclusions?

Since iOS 18.4 and macOS 15.4 updating the calendar of an (ek)event (to another accounts calendar) or detaching an repeating event throws an error while saving: "Access denied" EKEventStore.save(event, span: .thisEvent, commit: true) catch { "Access denied" }

I have a total of 100 asset packs associated with my app but I have archived 5 of them. Unfortunately I am now unable to upload any more asset packs (the reported error is "backgroundAsset limit reached -- This app has already reached the maximum number of active backgroundAssets. Maximum allowed is 100.") I assumed that archiving asset packs would make them inactive (and thus not count against the limit). This seems to not be the case and I'm not sure how I can upload new asset packs.

Hi! I've noticed that the IP_RECVIF socket option, i.e.: int y = 1; setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_RECVIF, &y, sizeof(y)); does not seem to work if the socket is proxied by a NETransparentProxyProvider type network extension: there's no ancillary data in messages received with recvmsg. As soon as I disable the network extension, recvmsg starts returning ancillary data containing the interface name. This seems to break some applications which rely on IP_RECVIF in the presence of a transparent proxy, making it, in fact, not transparent. One such example is Apple's own libresolv, which relies on IP_RECVIF and breaks if there's no ancillary data in the recvmsg result. I don't think that this is the intended behaviour, since IPV6_PKTINFO seems to work fine. I've filed a bug report (FB17586550) about this, however, I would greatly appreciate if someone could point me in the direction of a workaround.

We persist ApplicationTokens in a storage container that ShieldConfigurationExtension has access to. In rare, cases all the ApplicationTokens for a user seem to change. We know this because the Application parameter passed into configuration(shielding application: Application) -> ShieldConfiguration function has a Token that does not match (using == ) any of the ones we are persisting in storage. Interestingly, the persisted ones still work, so I don't believe storage has gotten corrupted or anything. We can use them to add or remove shields, we can use them to display labels of the apps they represent, etc. But they don’t match what’s passed into the ShieldConfiguration extension. If the user goes into the FamilyPicker at this point and selects an app of a token that we are already persisting, the FamilyPickerSelection will have a token matching the new one that is passed into ShieldConfigurationExtension, not the one we persisted when they last selected that app. This leads me to believe the tokens are updated/rotated in some cases. When and why does this happen, and how can we handle it gracefully?

Hi, As a company, we have several apps in the AppStore that contain AppClips. With the latest iOS18 it works without any problems. With all iOS26 betas so far, however, there is always the problem “ASDErrorDomain- Error 507” and the AppClip cannot be opened. You can easily test this by scanning the following QR code with the system camera: You only ever get this error instead of the option to open the AppClip. As the iOS26 beta phase is already at an advanced stage, we are naturally concerned as to whether the problem will be solved.

I'm trying to embed a self-built copy of the WebKit frameworks to a macOS app. Most importantly I hope to get some features to work which Safari offers, but WKWebView in macOS doesn't (getDisplayMedia, Service Workers, WebInspector). Many years ago I was successful in using a self-built WebKit copy in this Mac app, but it seems the WebKit framework got more complex since them, I guess because of WKWebView's architecture. That time I had to open the projects for the main frameworks in Xcode, select the framework bundle in the target and change the "Installation Directory" setting to the path @executable_path/../Frameworks. After building WebKit using the build script, I could use otool -L to confirm the changed installation path, which then was displayed for example as @executable_path/../Frameworks/WebCore.framework/Versions/A/WebCore I tried the same with a current WebKit build: I copied the products for WebKit.framework, WebCore.framework, JavaScriptCore.framework, WebKitLegacy.framework, WebGPU.framework and WebInspectorUI.framework to my app and added it to the "Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded Content" section in the Project's Target/General tab and selected "Embed & Sign" for each framework. In "Build Phases" I made sure that WebCore.framework and WebGPU.framework are only in the "Copy Files" phase (Destination Frameworks) and not in "Link Binary with Libraries", as WebCore is linked through the WebKit umbrella framework and WebGPU gave another error (not sure about how to deal with that framework, as in the system it's in a PrivateFrameworks subfolder). In "Build Settings" I made sure that @executable_path/../Frameworks is entered for "Runpath Search Paths" (it was already probably because of Cocoapods, together with @loader_path/../Frameworks. When I build my app, the system's WebKit version is used. Only when I add the environment variable DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH with value @executable_path/../Frameworks in the run scheme, the embedded self-build WebKit frameworks are used. Because of currently necessary backward compatibility my app can use the legacy WebView or WKWebView. The legacy WebView works perfectly with the embedded WebKitLegacy.framework. But if I try to open any URL in WKWebView, no content is rendered and in the console output I can see: Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Process] 0x10c67d760 - [PID=0] WebProcessProxy::didFinishLaunching: Invalid connection identifier (web process failed to launch) Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Process] 0x10c67d760 - [PID=0] WebProcessProxy::processDidTerminateOrFailedToLaunch: reason=4 Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [ProcessSuspension] 0x10c005040 - [PID=0, throttler=0x10c67d8d8] ProcessThrottler::Activity::invalidate: Ending background activity / 'WebProcess initialization' Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Process] 0x10c67d760 - [PID=0] WebProcessProxy::shutDown: Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Process] 0x7fbe89064020 - [pageProxyID=40, webPageID=41, PID=0] WebPageProxy::processDidTerminate: (pid 0), reason 4 2022-02-14 12:53:01.764074+0100 Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Process] 0x10c67d760 - [PID=0] WebProcessProxy::processTerminated: Safe Exam Browser[21391:145678] [Loading] 0x7fbe89064020 - [pageProxyID=40, webPageID=41, PID=0] WebPageProxy::dispatchProcessDidTerminate: reason=Crash Safe Exam Browser[21391:146842] [SEBOSXWKWebViewController webViewWebContentProcessDidTerminate:<Safe_Exam_Browser.SEBOSXWKWebView: 0x7fbe88f8b1c0>] I have the impression that the web process might fail to launch because I didn't embed all necessary parts of the self-built WebKit (the product folder contains a large number of XPC, dylib and .a files). Or some additional paths have to be adjusted before building WebKit, so that the embedded frameworks/libraries are used and not the system provided ones. I also looked at the bundle of the Safari Technology Preview and can see some similarities but also differences. I would be grateful if anybody could provide me with information how to embed a self-built copy of WebKit into a macOS app. Unfortunately I didn't find any Mac open source browser using an embedded copy of WebKit to get some inspiration from.

I couldn't find any mention in the Wi-Fi Aware documentation https://developer.apple.com/documentation/WiFiAware about the possibilities of the Wi-Fi Aware connection during the app working in the background execution mode (background state). Does the framework keep the connection alive when the app goes to the background state? Is there anything similar concept to CoreBluetooth state restoration available in the case of the Wi-Fi Aware framework?

I am pretty sure iOS 13.4 (beta and later) did support Coded PHY (Long Range). Tested devices are iPhone SE2 and iPhone 11 Pro. However, it seems iOS 14 removed the support of Coded PHY, accidentally or on purpose, I don't know? The same PHY update request returns "1M PHY" in iOS 14, but "Coded PHY" in iOS 13 (13.4 beta and later). Anyone knows why? Samson

I’m testing an auto-renewable subscription on TestFlight. Now the user can't re-purchase the same product – Apple just restores the old (expired) one, and no payment sheet appears. How can I let the same TestFlight user re-subscribe to an expired product? Do I have to create a new productId for every test cycle?

Hello everyone. I use Translation Framework in my application. During development everything was fine, Translation framework worked well, but after two or three days of using the production version (that was published in AppStore and available for others also!) - my application stopped working. Translation framework gives errors: Error sending 1 paragraphs Error Domain=TranslationErrorDomain Code=16 "Translation failed" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Translation failed, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Offline models not available for language pair} Failed to translate input 0; returning error: Error Domain=TranslationErrorDomain Code=16 "Translation failed" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Translation failed, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Offline models not available for language pair} Received unbridged NSError to API, converting to .internalError: Error Domain=TranslationErrorDomain Code=16 "Translation failed" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Translation failed, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Offline models not available for language pair} Once again - it worked when I developed it, it was released on the AppStore, and suddenly it stopped working!

Hello, I’m building a health-related app for both watchOS and iOS, which needs to monitor certain health data (e.g., heart rate, active energy). Before updating to watchOS 26, the queries worked reliably without any issues. However, after adapting to watchOS 26, some users have reported that health data updates stop being delivered. What I’ve observed: HKObserverQuery with enableBackgroundDelivery is set up normally. On WatchOS 26, the query sometimes stops delivering updates entirely after a certain point, and once an update is missed, it may stop delivering further updates completely. Restarting the Apple Watch temporarily restores delivery, but the problem reoccurs after some time. This makes background health data monitoring unreliable for my app. Here’s a simplified version of the code we are using: guard let heartType = HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate) else { return } let query = HKObserverQuery(sampleType: heartType, predicate: nil) { query, completionHandler, error in if let error = error { logEvent("Observer error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } logEvent("Heart rate changed") MyNotificationManager.shared.sendNotification() // Send a local notification completionHandler() } healthStore.execute(query) healthStore.enableBackgroundDelivery(for: heartType, frequency: .hourly) { success, error in if success { logEvent("Background heart rate delivery enabled") } else { logEvent("Failed to enable background heart rate delivery: \(error?.localizedDescription ?? "Unknown error")") } } Could you please clarify: Is this a known issue with HKObserverQuery and enableBackgroundDelivery on watchOS 26? Are there any recommended workarounds or best practices to ensure continuous background delivery of health data? Thank you in advance for your help.
