I'm reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing issues with the Live Caller ID feature on iOS. We recently encountered a problem where the feature stopped working entirely. Here's a brief overview of the situation: We were monitoring test traffic on our backend and noticed everything came to a halt around 1:00 AM UTC on November 15th. After this time, any attempts to reach our backend through calls failed completely. I tested this across multiple devices running iOS 18.2 and iOS 18.0. I used both TestFlight builds and development builds via Xcode, which should communicate directly with our backend. I experienced the problem on our main application as well as a dedicated test app. To troubleshoot further, I even set up a local server on localhost and tried directing requests there, but the requests did not reach the local server when a call was received. Further debugging in Console.app revealed the following error: identity request returned error: Error Domain=com.apple.CipherML Code=400 "Error Domain=com.apple.CipherML Code=401 "Unable to request data by keywords batch: failed to fetch token issuer directory" However, when I manually tried to hit our server endpoint using curl, the request successfully reached the server: curl https://our_server/something hb_method=GET hb_uri=/something [Hummingbird] Request -- log on backend This suggests that while our backend is responsive, the requests from the iOS client side are simply not being initiated.

Hey, I am just about to prepare my app for Swift 6, and facing the issue that UserDefaults is not Sendable. The documentation states that its thread safe, so I am wondering, why is it not marked as Sendable? Was it just forgotten? Is it safe to mark it as nonisolated(unsafe) or @unchecked Sendable?

if #available(iOS 16.0, *) {       print("donated")       let intent = BasicIntent()       IntentDonationManager.shared.donate(intent: intent)    } Trying to test if donations work with the new App Intents framework. Donating the shortcut once a user taps a button. The shortcut is not appearing on the lock screen. Everything else is working as expected. The Shortcut is appearing in the Shortcuts App and is working via Siri. In developer settings I have Display Recent Shortcuts -> On Display Donations on Lock Screen -> On Allow Any domain -> On Allow Unverified sources -> On Running iOS 16.2, iPhone 11.

For login purposes, we may want to try automatically checking to see if an email address is set up in certain databases. It looks like the preferred way to do this is via ABAddressBook.shared().me(), then get the right key via in the properties? This, however, is treated as accessing the whole address book and brings up a confirmation dialogue. However, as I thought about it, that might not be the real way we'd want -- we'd want to go through Active Directory, perhaps? Am I making any sense, or just being incoherent? 😄

Hello, I think it is quite a common use-case to open the parent app that owns the ShieldActionDelegate when the user selects an action in the Shield. There are only three options available that we can do in response to an action: ShieldActionResponse.none ShieldActionResponse.close ShieldActionResponse.defer It would be great if this new one would be added as well: ShieldActionResponse.openParentApp While finding a workaround for now, the problem is that the ShieldActionDelegate is not a normal app extension. That means, normal tricks do not work to open the parent app from here. For example, UIApplication.shared.open(url) does not work because we can’t access UIApplication from the ShieldActionDelegate unfortunately. NSExtensionContext is also not available in the ShieldActionDelegate unfortunately, so that’s also not possible. There are apps however, that managed to find a workaround, in my research I stumbled across these two: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/applocker-passcode-lock-apps/id1132845904?l=en-GB https://apps.apple.com/us/app/app-lock/id6448239603 Please find a screen recording (gif) attached. Their workaround is 100% what I’m looking for, so there MUST be a way to do so that is compliant with the App Store guidelines (after all, the apps are available on the App Store!). I had documented my feature request more than 2 years ago in this radar as well: FB10393561

I created in my Objective-c project the AgeRange check for a special function. It is working well on an iPhone. Now I used my Mac and added my app to the TestFlight on my macOS Tahoe 26.1 Here it is directly crashing. But how can I debug an Application which is created for iPhone and iPad with Xcode? I cannot use the target myMac when running a debugging mode. So how is the debugging working for such Apps?

All of my apps stopped working with WeatherKit this morning. They all return an "Error Domain=WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors Code=2" error. I am certain that the WeatherKit capability added (in project) and enabled as a Capability & App Service (on developer portal for the identifier). All other iCloud features of my apps are working as expected. I have also done all the normal troubleshooting using codesign / security cms, etc. to verify entitlements. I created the following simple project to verify the integration. import WeatherKit import CoreLocation struct ContentView: View { @State private var temp: Measurement<UnitTemperature>? = nil var body: some View { VStack { if let t = temp { Text("\(t.value.rounded())°\(t.unit.symbol)") } else { Text("Fetching…") .task { let service = WeatherService() do { let location = CLLocation(latitude: 50.318668, longitude: -114.917710) let weather = try await service.weather(for: location, including: .current) temp = weather.temperature } catch { print("Error:", error) } } } } } } Any ideas what may be happening?

Hello Apple Developer Community, I’m working on integrating Siri into my React Native app using native iOS code and bridging to React Native. I’ve followed the necessary steps to set up Siri support, including: Adding the Siri capability. Adding Siri usage descriptions in Info.plist. Using AppIntent and AppShortcutsProvider to define shortcuts. However, I’m facing the following issues: Siri Prompts for Confirmation When a user says a phrase, Siri asks, "Turn on 'MyApp' shortcuts with Siri?" instead of directly recognizing the phrase. Is this expected behavior? If so, how can I reduce friction for users and make the experience more seamless? Inconsistent Behavior for Existing Users For users updating to a version with Siri support: When the app is closed, Siri says, "MyApp hasn't added support for that with Siri." When the app is open, Siri prompts, "Turn on shortcut for MyApp?" and rest all working fine Why does Siri not recognize the shortcut when the app is closed, even though the shortcut is defined in AppShortcutsProvider? How can I ensure that Siri recognizes the shortcut regardless of whether the app is open or closed? Other than using AppIntent and AppShortcutsProvider should i try Donating shortcuts(will that helps for updated user case). Please help me on this

I’m encountering an issue while reading/writing shared preferences using UserDefaults with an App Group in my iOS Message Extension. The following error appears in the console: `Couldn't read values in CFPrefsPlistSource&lt;0x3034e7f80&gt; (Domain: [MyAppGroup], User: kCFPreferencesAnyUser, ByHost: Yes, Container: (null), Contents Need Refresh: Yes): Using kCFPreferencesAnyUser with a container is only allowed for System Containers, detaching from cfprefsd. I have correctly enabled the App Group in both my containing app and the Message Extension, and I am using UserDefaults(suiteName:) to access shared preferences. However, I keep getting this error when trying to read/write values. Has anyone encountered this before? How can I properly configure my app group preferences to avoid this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi. The WWDC video of the v2 weatherkit api showed some examples for the REST API. However, they were very limited. The documentation for the REST API is currently for the v1 weatherkit API. When will the documentation for the v2 API be released? There are some new features of the v2 that I would really like to use, but I can't without knowing the new v2 REST API specifications. Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, I have an app on the App Store built around WeatherKit and it was working fine, up until this morning when I started seeing errors when using the app. When debugging using Xcode I see the familiar error Failed to generate jwt token for: com.apple.weatherkit.authservice with error: Error Domain=WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors Code=2 "(null)" which, according to what I've read on the forums looks like an authentication error. Attaching a network debugger to the Simulator, I saw this error: This I have tried: Verify that WeatherKit is enabled on both Capabilities and App Services tabs on the Dev Portal. Toggle on/off this value and regenerate Provisioning Profiles Uninstall/reinstall Checking that I have API available calls. Nothing. If I create a new Bundle ID and sign with that, it works correctly. But this is not an option since that will force all my customers to download everything from scratch. I am getting emails from customers demanding money back and I can't figure out what has happened. The only thing I can think of, is that I started developing an Apple Watch app to complement the iOS app, but that was last week and everything was working fine.

Observed few times that providerDidBegin(_:) delegate never called for the complete app session after app init(as part of this CXProvider registered) which was built with SDK 26 and running on iOS 26. This issue observed multiple times with our testing. Since there is no providerDidBegin:, client is marking CallKit as not ready and never report any calls for VoIP APNS and ended up in app crash due to "[PKPushRegistry _terminateAppIfThereAreUnhandledVoIPPushes]" Please refer for sysdiagnose logs : FB19778306

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?

On macOS 26, I've run into a situation when a user “customizes” a folder icon with Finder by assigning/changing an SF Symbol or an emoji, QLThumbnailGenerator keeps returning the stale initially retrieved folder icon (no matter whether it had been customized or not) until my app quits. After the app is re-launched, the icon is correctly retrieved once again. let generator = QLThumbnailGenerator.shared let size: CGSize = CGSize(width: 64, height: 64) let request = QLThumbnailGenerator.Request(fileAt: url, size: size, scale: NSScreen.main!.backingScaleFactor, representationTypes: .icon) request.iconMode = true do { let thumb = try await generator.generateBestRepresentation(for: request) thumb.nsImage.size = size return thumb.nsImage } catch { print("generateThumbnail: \(error)") return nil } It seems like the QuickLook Thumbnailing cache does not invalidate automatically upon folder customization. Is there any way to manually invalidate the QuickLook Thumbnailing cache?

I have two call directory extensions, each with InfoPlist.strings in en.lproj and nb.lproj directories. In these files I've defined CFBundleDisplayName for both locales. These names are displayed under Settings -> Phone -> Call Blocking & Identification. On iOS 12.2 the names are displayed correctly in both Norwegian and English. Testing on iOS 15.3 the English names are displayed even when device language is set to Norwegian. Worth noting: When updating the English versions of CFBundleDisplayName this is immediately reflected in Call Blocking & Identification page with Norwegian device language. As this feature requires a real device, I'm unable to test on iOS 13 and 14.

The documentation says: The caching behavior of the NSURL and CFURL APIs differ. For NSURL, all cached values (not temporary values) are automatically removed after each pass through the run loop. You only need to call the removeCachedResourceValueForKey: method when you want to clear the cache within a single execution of the run loop. The CFURL functions, on the other hand, do not automatically clear cached resource values. The client has complete control over the cache lifetimes, and you must use CFURLClearResourcePropertyCacheForKey or CFURLClearResourcePropertyCache to clear cached resource values. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsurl/removeallcachedresourcevalues()?language=objc Is this really true? In my experience I've had to explicitly remove cached resource values via -removeAllCachedResourceValues or removeCachedResourceValueForKey: otherwise the URL contains stale values. For example on a URL that no longer exists I attempted to read NSURLIsHiddenKey and the last value was already cached. Instead of getting a NSFileNoSuchFileError I get the old cache value unless explicitly call -removeCachedResourceValueForKey: first and I'm fairly certain the value was cached on a previous run loop churn.

An issue with the CallKit UI, specifically regarding the functionality of the speaker button. When a user initiates a video call with CallKit and then, using the existing CallKit session, initiates an audio call, there are no issues with CallKit or the audio. However, if the user terminates the video call from the CallKit UI, the active CallKit session ends. To resume the ongoing audio call, we report a new CallKit call upon the end call trigger. While there are no issues with this reporting, the CallKit UI does not provide an audio route for the built-in receiver, and the speaker button remains unresponsive. IPA was build on SDK 18 and running on iOS beta 26. Issue is NOT seen with SDK18 and running iOS 18.x or lower devices. Feedback - FB18855566

Starting with iOS 18.3, we are getting infrequent crash reports somehow related to web sockets. Are there any new caveats we should be aware of or is it just a CFNetwork bug?

I have a SwiftUI document-based app that for the sake of this discussion stores accounting information: chart of accounts, transactions, etc. Each document is backed by a SwiftData DB. I'd like to incorporate search into the app so that users can find transactions matching certain criteria, so I went to Core Spotlight. Indexing & search within the app seem to work well. The issue is that Spotlight APIs appear to be App based & not Document based. I can't find a way to separate Spotlight data by document. I've tried having each document maintain a UUID as a document-specific identifier and include the identifier in every CSSearchableItem. When performing a query I filter the results with CSUserQueryContext.filterQueries that filter by the document identifier. That works to limit results to the specific file for search operations. Index updates via CSSearchableIndexDelegate.reindex* methods seem to be App-centric. A user may have file #1 open, but the delegate is being asked to update CSSearchableItems for IDs in other files. Is there a proper way to use Spotlight for in-app search with a document-based app? Is there a way to keep Spotlight-indexed data local within the app & not make it available across the system? I.e. I'd like to search within the app only. System-level searches should not surface this data.

On iOS 18 and lower version, my application supports automatically switching to [System settings - Personal Hotspot] directly. But on iOS 26, my application will be redirected to [System settings- Apps]. Does iOS 26 disable the behavior of directly jumping to the system hotspot page? If support, could you share the API for iOS 26?
