I develop and build the DeepSkyStacker application on an M4 Mac Mini. A user reports that with a given set of data files and application settings, that it crashes on his M4 MAX. He sent me his data files, and I can't provoke a crash on my M4. He also sent an App Crash report file which I attach. Any insight into the likely cause of the problem will be appreciated (yes, I know it is a segfault in code called from Avx256Stacking::pixelPartitioning - probably a lambda ...). dss-6.1.3-crash.log

Hello Apple Developer Community, I am planning to participate in the Swift Student Challenge 2026. However, while reviewing the application form, I noticed that my country of residence is not listed in the address dropdown menu. I would like to clarify the correct way to proceed in this situation to avoid disqualification: Is it permissible to use the address of a relative who lives in a supported region as my contact address? Is filling out the shipping address mandatory for the initial submission, or is there an option to proceed without it? I want to ensure I fully comply with the Terms and Conditions. Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello everyone, I have already submitted my app playground for the Swift Student Challenge. After submission I noticed a few things I would like to improve and fix. Is it possible to withdraw my current submission and then immediately resubmit an updated version? Any clarification (especially from Apple staff or anyone who has done this before) would be very helpful. Thank you!

I’m building a Swift Playgrounds app (.swiftpm) in Xcode 26.2 and I consistently see this warning, even on brand-new Swift Playgrounds apps created from the default template: “Skipping duplicate build file in Compile Sources build phase: /Users/.../.swiftpm/Media.xcassets” Everything builds and runs normally and all images/assets appear correctly, so it seems like it’s just an annoying warning. I’ve checked for duplicates and don’t see the asset catalog listed twice, but the warning still appears whenever I add an asset catalog to any playground project in Xcode. Is this warning safe to ignore for submission, and it won’t affect Swift Student Challenge eligibility?

I hope you’re having a fantastic New Year and that your apps are doing great! This is my first time entering SSC , and I’m excited to share that I’m developing a screen timer app. The idea is to encourage you to take breaks by suggesting a run or workout instead of spending too much time on your screens. I was wondering, have anyone else included short videos or animations in their entries before? Also, could my screen time timer be running in the background? I know there are some limitations with integrations like HealthKit and Screen Time, which is why I’m using a regular countdown timer on the App Store as a prototype. I’m just trying to clarify the rules below to make sure that it’s all good to go : “If your submission includes any open source software, music, photos, artwork, or any other content that you do not have ownership rights in, you agree to (a) comply with all applicable licensing terms and copyright obligations and (b) provide an explanation of why it was used.” And regarding any tracking stuff in the disqualification section, whereas nothing in the app should include: “You track and/or insert analytics code in your App Store meant to identify or track judges’ activity while they review your App Store.” But my app will only have a simple timer in it.

I am building my app for iPhone users generally, and realized that maybe I should have had the iPad in mind since I read somewhere that the submissions will be judged on iPad. Should I be testing and tweaking on iPad now or can it be somehow ran on iPhone?

Hello, I built my app in Xcode and used IOS 26 latest frameworks like Foundation Models. But some of this frameworks don't work properly in Swift Playground(MyApp.swiftpm) and cause crashes. My question is can I submit a MyApp.xcodeproj file and choose Xcode 26 as a software to run my app ? Thank you in advance.

Leider ist bei der Beta 2 iOS 26.4 immer noch so das dass öffnen der App Store sehr langsam ist und teilweise sehr lange braucht bei suchen von Apps.

I am looking through the rules and terms and it just says Xcode submissions will be run on a simulator. Does this mean Mac Catalyst or can it be run on a iPad VM? Or more so should we specify in the comments on where to run it. Thank you!

I installed the new 26.4 ios and now can't compose or reply to emails on the Gmail app. I tried restarting my phone and uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but nothing helps. How can I fix this?

My swift student challenge submission is an iPad app built in Xcode and I'm planning on selecting the Xcode 26 option for testing in the dropdown provided in the application. Just have to confirm that the run destination for the playground in Xcode will be an iPad simulator right? Recently I have seen many participants post their submission screenshot for iPhone renders so just wanted to confirm the run destination. Thank you👾

Has anyone gotten Postgres to run in a sandboxed app? I am compiling Postgres 18 myself from source and have tried to patch it so it doesn't use sysv (shmem) but it apparently has all kinds of invocations of sysv and once it's sandboxed has issues, e.g.: 2026-02-24 18:26:05.014 EST [4384] FATAL: semctl(65596, 16, SETVAL, 536) failed: Operation not permitted Does anyone know of a way to either make the sandbox relax or make Postgres compatible with sandboxing? I have tried passing flags to initdb to use POSIX semaphores but it always wants to use sysv so I'm finding myself super deep in the weeds of the Postgres source code.

Hi everyone, I’m considering integrating External Payments into my iOS app. I’ve done some research, but I’m finding it difficult to pinpoint the exact commission rates for different regions. For those of you who have already implemented external payment links: Could you share what the actual fees paid to Apple look like in your specific Geos (e.g., US, EU, or others)? Does the total cost—including Apple's commission and the payment processor's fee (like Stripe)—end up being significantly lower than the standard 15-30% IAP?

Updated iOS to 26.4. Gmail folders have disappeared in Apple Mail. Can‘t transfer email messages to folders as consequence. Any ideas?

I'm making my app in Xcode (as an app playground). I understand that the app will be run in a simulator when being evaluated if I choose the Xcode option on the submission form. However, my app looks significantly better on iPhones than on iPads. Is there a way for me to specify which device to use that will be respected by judges? What about device orientation? Thanks.

After updating to another beta of High Sierra, my internal hard drive became read-only somehow. I have a user home directory on that and many things have stopped working. I tried re-installing the OS, but it didn't help. I'm out of options by now. Anyone has ideas how can I fix that?
