Hello everyone, I’m currently developing an app that uses the Family Controls API, specifically the Screen Time API. However, my current entitlement is limited to development mode, which prevents me from publishing my app on TestFlight. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support for production access but wanted to reach out to the community as well and I was referenced to FamilyControls API documentation and I couldn't find anything related to my case. Has anyone successfully upgraded their entitlement from development-only to production? Any insights on the process, tips for communicating with Developer Support, or guidance on ensuring full compliance with the Family Controls guidelines would be extremely helpful.

PLATFORM AND VERSION: iOS Development environment: Xcode 15.3, macOS 14.7.1 (23H222) Run-time configuration: iOS 18.3.1 DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM: Our app uses NEHotspotConfigurationManager with joinOnce set to false to connect to an IoT device's Wi-Fi hotspot. Later, we programmatically disconnect from this hotspot. We are wondering if, after this programmatic disconnection, there is a possibility that the iPhone will automatically reconnect to the hotspot (even when our app is not running). Does it matter if the hotspot's SSID is hidden or not? This concern arises because the iPhone is already familiar with the hotspot's network configuration. Our testing indicates that this does not happen, but we want to be certain. This is a behavior we do NOT want to occur. We set joinOnce to false because we experience connectivity issues with the IoT device when joinOnce is true (there are several discussions in forums regarding issues with setting it to true). Thank you. Thanks.

The example database/server provided by Apple for Live Caller ID contains a hardcoded database with a tiny number of pre-defined numbers. However, its not expected to be representational of an live real world usage server. But the question is how can that be accomplished if its a requirement that the data be KPIR encrypted? In real world scenarios, the factors that effect whether a number should be blocked or not are continually changing and evolving on a minute-by-minute basis and new information becomes available or existing information changes. If the database supports tens of millions or hundreds of millions of constantly changing phone numbers, in order to meet the requirements of the Live Caller ID being KPIR encrypted, that would imply the database has to re-encrypt its database of millions endlessly for all time. That seems unfeasable and impractical to implement. Therefore how do the Apple designers of this feature envisage/suggest a real-world server supporting millions of changing data should meet the requirement to be KPIR encrypted?

Hello, I'm buiding a macos app where I bundled a command line tool (Python) with my app. I put the tool in ****.app/Contents/MacOS folder, but it seems like the tool can not execute/read/ access. I don't know if a sandbox app can access/create a folder inside ****.app/Contents folder??? If not where can I put the tool that can access from my macos app? Any idea would be appreciated!

We have developed a DNS filter extension that works for most applications, but it does not receive all DNS queries. In particular, if we have our extension installed and enabled, we see Safari browsing cause local DNS servers to be used instead of going through our extension. What is the logic for how DNS servers vs. extensions are chosen to resolve DNS queries?

On my macOS 15.x device, frequently encountering the error: Error Domain=com.apple.wifi.apple80211API.error Code=-528342014 "tmpErr" when connecting to an EAP WiFi network using CWWiFiClient. Restarting the device temporarily resolves the issue, but it reoccurs after some time. What could be causing this, and how can it be resolved programmatically?

Hello, We are experiencing slow launch time indicators in our performance monitoring tools(Crashlytics/DataDog/Xcode), and trying to understand what is the best approach to reduce it. Currently, cold launch takes ~900ms on iPhone 16 Pro , but ~2s on iPhone 11. Profiling app launch detected that most of the time is spend on loading the libraries. Our app is massive, we use a total of ~40 3rd parties libraries + 10 internal libraries. We enabled the "mergeable libraries" XCode new feature however the app launch is as written above. We also postponed some of the work in didFinishLaunch, which help a bit... But maybe we are trying to achieve the impossible? Could it be that large apps just can't reach the golden 500ms goal? Currently we are trying to create an "umbrella" library for all the third parties in order to force them to become part of the mergeable libraries. We would like to know if, are we on the right track?

Hi, Need input on making ICEcard app paid version , requirements. The app is presently live for India and shortly will be for global. This app is for primary health information which is critical in case anyone faces emergency. Will it have any regulatory concerns ? https://apps.apple.com/in/app/ice-card-app/id6736453602

I have an iPhone app which relies heavily on TCP/IP communication in the local network. Therefore, the application starts a server socket and accepts incoming connections. This worked flawlessly for a long time and we had no problems with this. Problem In the last days however, we observed that for some iPhones with the server role other devices cannot connect to the server of our app. The server does not accept incoming connections on the devices IP address and the client times out. Environment Both iPhones (the server and the client) are in the same network with 192.168.1.0 address range and 255.255.255.0 subnet mask. The server has the IP 192.168.1.11 and the client has 192.168.1.22. This is a normal home WiFi network with no special firewall rules. Both devices have mobile data disabled and the "access local network" permission is granted. The server socket is bound to all interfaces (0.0.0.0). More technical symptoms When the server iPhone is in this faulty state, it seems like it somehow has two ip addresses: 192.168.2.123 and 192.168.1.11 The WiFi preferences show the (correct) .1.11 ip address. The Apps however see the (wrong) .2.123 ip address. I cannot explain where the other ip address comes from and why the device thinks it has this ip address. I've collected interface diagnosis information on a faulty iPhone and it listed the following interfaces and IPs: en0 -> 192.168.2.123 lo0 -> 127.0.0.1 pdp_ip0 (cellular) -> 192.0.0.2 pdp_ip1 to pdp_ip6 (cellular) -> -/- ipsec0 to ipsec6 (vpn) -> -/- llw0 (vpn) -> -/- awdl0 -> -/- anpi0 -> -/- ap1 -> -/- XHC0 -> -/- en1 and en2 (wired) -> -/- utun0 to utun2 (vpn) -> -/- The correct ip of the device is not listed anywhere in this list. A reboot helped to temporarily fix this problem. One user reported the same issue again a few hours later after a reboot. Switching off WiFi and reconnecting does not solve the problem. This issue occurred on several iPhones with the following specs: iOS Version 18.1.1, 18.3.1 iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 15 Pro The problem must be on the server side as the client can successfully connect to any other device in the same network. Question(s) Where does this second IP come from and why does the server not accept connections to either ip even though it is bound to 0.0.0.0? Are there any iOS system settings which could lead to this problem? (privacy setting, vpn, ...) What could be done to permanently fix this issue?

Hello, Relatively new to AppleScripts in current gen (I've used it back in 2010s) and would like some help if someone can point me in the right direction. Is AppleScript the best/only way to interact with Notes application? (I'm on Sequioa) 1.1 I've tried to use LLM to generate a Swift app, but it still calls out to AppleScripts, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something. 1.2 If I'm going down a rabbit hole, I'd like to stop since I want to finish this quick task and move on and or fall deeply in love with AppleScripts... whichever comes first. Is There a better way to write notes? Script Editor is still a minimal IDE, I'd love to find something that will do some auto completion/suggestions because the documentation in the Script Editor is still a tad weak. (I'm used to interpreted languages like bash, ruby, etc...) where if I don't understand something I just dig into the code instead of turse documentation that just exposes public end points and does not tell you much more :( My problem: I'd like to set up a cron that periodically checks my notes, and cleans up the shared notes. Basically it's a shared set of notes that have checklist on it and cleans up. (weekly chores etc...) I want to read the notes, find out which ones have been marked checked. Reset the ones that are done, leave unfinished ones alone and reset the old ones. This is how far I've gotten: let appleScript = """``` tell application "Notes" set targetNote to note "\Test" of default account return body of targetNote end tell That works like a charm, Kind of dumb because I rather use and ID of the note not the name :( It returns the following <div><b><span style=\\"font-size: 24px\\">Test</span></b></div> <div><br></div> <ul> <li> Not Done</li> <li>Done</li> <li>Not Done yet</li> </ul> <div><br></div> <div>Single line</div> Which is a good start! Issues: There is no way to tell which Item is marked "Checked" and which one is not :( Any helps is greatly appreciated!

When a user first downloads my application they are prompted to sign into their apple account via a pop up. I have not had this pop up previously, I believe the change occurred after iOS18. I have functions that do a few things: Retrieves userRecordID Retrieves a userprofile(via userrecordid) from cloudkit.

I'm looking to integrate call / text / facetime history into my app while maintaining the necessary security for the end user. I only need date stamp and contact link or name of the person communicated with, no access to content of messages etc. How would this be accomplished?

I completed the CallKit Demo with the same code. When I changed to LiveCommunicationKit, the code goes perfectly when the app is in foreground, but it crashed in background. If I changed the reportIncoming method from LCK to CallKit, it goes well. What is the reason? I changed the method from func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didReceiveIncomingPushWith payload: PKPushPayload, for type: PKPushType, completion: @escaping () -> Void) to func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didReceiveIncomingPushWith payload: PKPushPayload, for type: PKPushType) async it crashed before show the print "receive voip noti". Here is the core code: var providerDelegate: ProviderDelegate? func pushRegistry(_ registry: PKPushRegistry, didReceiveIncomingPushWith payload: PKPushPayload, for type: PKPushType, completion: @escaping () -> Void) { if type != .voIP { return } guard let uuidString = payload.dictionaryPayload["uuid"] as? String, let uuid = UUID(uuidString: uuidString), let handle = payload.dictionaryPayload["handle"] as? String, let hasVideo = payload.dictionaryPayload["hasVideo"] as? Bool, let callerID = payload.dictionaryPayload["callerID"] as? String else { return } print("receive voip noti: \(type):\(payload.dictionaryPayload)") if #available(iOS 17.4, *) { // This code is only goes perfectly when the App is in foreground var update = Conversation.Update(members: [Handle(type: .generic, value: callerID, displayName: callerID)]) if hasVideo { update.capabilities = [.video, .playingTones] } else { update.capabilities = .playingTones } Task { @MainActor in do { print("LCKit report start") try await LCKitManager.shared.reportNewIncomingConversation(uuid: uuid, update: update) print("LCKit report success") completion() } catch { print("LCKit report failed") print(error) completion() } } } else { // It went perfectly providerDelegate?.reportIncomingCall(uuid: uuid, callerID: callerID, handle: handle, hasVideo: hasVideo) { _ in completion() } } @available(iOS 17.4, *) final class LCKitManager { static let shared = LCKitManager() let manager: ConversationManager init() { manager = ConversationManager(configuration: type(of: self).configuration) manager.delegate = self } static var configuration: ConversationManager.Configuration { ConversationManager.Configuration(ringtoneName: "Ringtone.aif", iconTemplateImageData: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "IconMask").pngData(), maximumConversationGroups: 1, maximumConversationsPerConversationGroup: 1, includesConversationInRecents: true, supportsVideo: false, supportedHandleTypes: [.generic]) } func reportNewIncomingConversation(uuid: UUID, update: Conversation.Update) async throws { try await manager.reportNewIncomingConversation(uuid: uuid, update: update) } } final class ProviderDelegate: NSObject, ObservableObject { static let providerConfiguration: CXProviderConfiguration = { let providerConfiguration: CXProviderConfiguration if #available(iOS 14.0, *) { providerConfiguration = CXProviderConfiguration() } else { providerConfiguration = CXProviderConfiguration(localizedName: "Name") } providerConfiguration.supportsVideo = false providerConfiguration.maximumCallGroups = 1 providerConfiguration.maximumCallsPerCallGroup = 1 let iconMaskImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "IconMask") providerConfiguration.iconTemplateImageData = iconMaskImage.pngData() providerConfiguration.ringtoneSound = "Ringtone.aif" providerConfiguration.includesCallsInRecents = true providerConfiguration.supportedHandleTypes = [.generic] return providerConfiguration }() private let provider: CXProvider init( { provider = CXProvider(configuration: type(of: self).providerConfiguration) super.init() provider.setDelegate(self, queue: nil) } func reportCall(uuid: UUID, callerID: String, handle: String, hasVideo: Bool, completion: ((Error?) -> Void)? = nil) { let callerUUID = UUID() let update = CXCallUpdate() update.remoteHandle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: callerID) update.hasVideo = hasVideo update.localizedCallerName = callerID // Report the incoming call to the system provider.reportNewIncomingCall(with: callerUUID, update: update) { [weak self] error in completion?(error) } } }

I am getting recurring errors running code on macOS 15.1 on arm that is using a volume mounted from a machine running macOS 14.7.1 on x86. The code I am running copies files to the remote volume and deletes files and directories on the remote volume. The files and directories it deletes are typically files it previously had copied. The problem is that I get permission failures trying to delete certain directories. After this happens, if I try to list the directory using Terminal on the 15.1 system, I get a strange error: ls -lA TestVAppearances.app/Contents/runtime-arm/Contents total 0 ls: fts_read: Permission denied If I try to list the directory on the target (14.7.1) system, there is no error: TestVAppearances.app/Contents/runtime-arm/Contents: total 0

As of iOS 18.1 being released we are having issues with our users experiencing issues with our app that relies on strobing the device torch. We have narrowed this down to being caused on devices with adaptive true-tone flash and have submitted a radar: FB15787160. The issue seems to be caused by ambient light levels. If run in a dark room, the torch strobes exactly as effectively as in previous iOS versions, if run in a light room, or outdoors, or near a window, the strobe will run for ~1s and then the torch will get stuck on for half a second or so (less frequently it gets stuck off) and then it will strobe again for ~1s and this behaviour repeats indefinitely. If we go to a darker environment, and background and then foreground the app (this is required) the issue is resolved, until moving to an area with higher ambient light levels again. We have done a lot of debugging, and also discovered that turning off "Auto-Brightness" from Settings -> Accessibility -> Display & Text Size resolves the issue. We have also viewed logs from Console.app at the time of the issue occurring and it seems to be that there are quite sporadic ambient light level readings at the time at which the issue occurs. The light readings transition from ~100 Lux to ~8000 Lux at the point that the issue starts occurring (seemingly caused by the rear sensor being affected by the torch). With "Auto-Brightness" turned off, it seems these readings stay at lower levels. This is rendering the primary use case of our app essentially useless, would be great to get to the bottom of it! We can't even really detect it in-app as I believe using SensorKit is restricted to research applications and requires a review process with Apple before accessing? Edit: It's worth noting this is also affecting other apps with strobe functionality in the exact same way
