PDFKit PDFPage.characterBounds(at: Int) is returning incorrect coordinates with iOS 18 beta 4 and later / Xcode 16 beta 4.
It worked fine in iOS 17 and earlier (after showing the same issue during the early iOS 17 beta cycle)
It breaks critical functionality that my app relies on.
I have filed feedback (FB14843671).
So far no changes in the latest betas. iOS release date is approaching fast!
Anybody having the same issue? Any workaround available?

It looks like Apple has added some new API(s) to SFSpeechRecognition
My app, which is currently listed on App Store does feature speech recognition.
Yet, trying to use it under iOS 18.0 throws errors:
-[SFSpeechRecognitionTask localSpeechRecognitionClient:speechRecordingDidFail:]_block_invoke Ignoring subsequent local speech recording error: Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1101 "(null)"
What happens is that after several words are transcribed and displayed, the next sentence results in previous words disappearance.
That's probably what that portion of the error text - "Ignoring subsequent local speech recording error: Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1101 "(null)" means.
The problem occurs ONLY when the app is running under iOS 18.0
Even when it's compiled in Xcode 16.0 using iOS 17.5 everything works fine.
Any suggestions?
Hello everyone,
I’m experiencing a crash in my iOS application that’s occurring predominantly on devices running iOS 16.6.0. The crash seems to happen on the main thread during a UI operation, specifically within the UIKitCore framework.

Our app includes showing external web service with WebView or Safari and returning to the app with custom URL scheme or universal link.
When we set "Hide and Require Face ID" feature which was available on iOS 18, neither custom URL scheme nor universal link activated the app.
If we only set "Require Face ID", the deep link worked properly.
Here is what we've tried:
Define custom URL scheme or universal link in the app
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/defining-a-custom-url-scheme-for-your-app
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/supporting-universal-links-in-your-app
Implement external web service with one of the following frameworks
ASWebAuthenticationSession
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices/aswebauthenticationsession/
SFSafariViewController
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/sfsafariviewcontroller
Safari
WKWebView
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkit/wkwebview
On iOS 18 device, install the app and set "Hide and Require Face ID"
Access external web page and tap the link which activates custom URL scheme or universal link
We expected the deep link to work, but the results were:
Custom URL scheme & ASWebAuthenticationSession/SFSafariViewController/Safari
The system shows "Cannot open the page because the address is invalid"
Custom URL scheme & WKWebView
Nothing happens when tapping the link
Universal link
Directed to the server with associated domain file, but the system doesn't call the app which is defined in the associated domain file
We tested the feature with the app built with Xcode16 beta 6, and the device with iOS 18 Seed 8(22A5350a).
Does hide app feature support custom URL scheme and universal link?
After building my app with Xcode 16 beta 6 I'm getting this warning in my AppIntents.
Encountered a non-optional type for parameter: computer. Conformance to the following AppIntent protocols requires all parameter types to be optional: AppIntents.WidgetConfigurationIntent, AppIntents.ControlConfigurationIntent
The intent looks something like this
struct WakeUp: AppIntent, WidgetConfigurationIntent, PredictableIntent {
@Parameter(title: "intent.param.computer", requestValueDialog:"intent.param.request_dialog.computer")
var computer: ComputerEntity
init(computer: ComputerEntity) {
self.computer = computer
}
init() {
}
public static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary {
Summary("Wake Up \(\.$computer)")
}
static var predictionConfiguration: some IntentPredictionConfiguration {
IntentPrediction(parameters: (\.$computer)) { computer in
DisplayRepresentation(
title: "Wake Up \(computer)"
)
}
}
@MainActor
func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog {
}
}
According to the docs though specifying optional is how we say if the value is required or not. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/adding-parameters-to-an-app-intent#Make-a-parameter-optional-or-required
So is this warning accurate? If so, how do I specify that a parameter is required by the intent now?
使用APPIntent 的AppShortcutsProvider方式,最多只能添加10个AppShortcut,超过10个,代码编译就会报错
struct MeditationShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider {
static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] {
AppShortcut(
intent: StartMeditationIntent(),
phrases: [
"Start a (.applicationName)",
"Begin (.applicationName)",
"Meditate with (.applicationName)",
"Start a (.$session) session with (.applicationName)",
"Begin a (.$session) session with (.applicationName)",
"Meditate on (.$session) with (.applicationName)"
]
)
}
}

We have minimum deployments set to iOS 15 in one of the app for both application and widget target.
When install app in simulator or real device using Xcode 15.4, it works fine in iOS15, iOS16, iOS17 and iOS18 beta.
When install app in simulator or real device, using Xcode 16 beta 6, it works fine in iOS16, iOS17 and iOS18 beta but in iOS 15, our app doesn't show in widget gallery.
We are in the process of updating our legacy Spotlight MDImporter to the new macOS Spotlight App Extension.
The transition works well for standard attributes such as title, textContent, and keywords.
However, we encounter an issue when adding custom attributes to the CSSearchableItemAttributeSet.
These custom attributes are not being persisted, which means they cannot be queried using a Spotlight NSMetadataQuery.
Has anyone an idea on how to append custom attributes so that they are included in the indexed file status, as displayed by the shell command mdimport -t -d3 <path>
A sample project illustrating the problem is available here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/t8qg51cr1rpwouxdl900b/2024-09-04-Spotlight-extAttr.zip?rlkey=lg6n9060snw7mrz6jsxfdlnfa&dl=1
Our app uses a 24-hour DeviceActivityMonitor repeating schedule to send users notifications for every hour of screen time they spend on their phone per day. Notifications are sent from eventDidReachThreshold callbacks at 1, 2, 3, etc, hour thresholds to keep them aware of their screen time.
We have recently received an influx of emails from our users that after updating to iOS 17.6.1 their DeviceActivityMonitor notifications are saying their screen time was much higher than what is shown in DeviceActivityReport and their device's Screen Time settings.
These users have disabled "Share Across Devices" - but I suspect the DeviceActivityMonitor is still getting screen time from their other devices even though that setting is turned off.
Has anybody else noticed this, understands what is causing this, or could recommend a fix that we can tell our users to do?
iOS 18 (22A3354) will not offer a option in settings (> Apps > Phone) after calling openSettings to enable live caller id lookup extension.
iPhone and MacBook are in the same network.
The PIRService runs on MacBook and is reachable via iPhone Safari (via http://MacBookPro:8080/).
Hummingbird print log: hb_method=GET hb_uri=/ [Hummingbird] Request.
After deploying the application via Xcode to the iPhone no requests are printed in the terminal.
The extension was added like documented and bundle id is also checked multiple times.
issuerRequestUri in service-config.json is http://MacBookPro:8080/issue.
As far as I can tell, everything has been set up in accordance with the Testing Live Caller ID instructions.
Is there something missing?
Hi! We are having a hard time with the universal link, help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
The universal link doesn't work after installation for some time. A user has to wait for from 5 to a couple of hours after the app is installed on the device.
This has also affected App reviewers since we need the universal link to work for successful login. Each submission will receive a rejection of we cannot login and it will be approved until we kindly ask them to try again.
I believe the JSON is delivered to devices by Apple's CDN system and the fact that it works on most devices most of the time should imply that we have a valid apple-app-site-association setup.
So I am really confused about the wait time, which is giving us trouble with app review and a bad user experience

We have found a large number of memory-related crashes in iOS18, and multiple issues have finally pointed to this crash line xzm_xzone_malloc_tiny_outlined. Do not know how to solve it now
I’m developing a self-management app using Family Controls, but I’ve encountered a FamilyActivityPciker's crash due to an XPC(or UIRemoteView) issue when there are too many tokens(maybe 200+ items) in a category. This makes bad UX, so I’m looking for a workaround.
(I guess that the crash reason is cross process memory limitations, such as App Extension 50MB memory limitation.)
A lot of web domains contribute to increase the number of tokens, However, even after clearing Safari’s browsing history, the tokens displayed in the FamilyActivityPicker remains unchanged.
Is there any workaround that a 3rd party developer can implement to address this issue? prevent FamilyActivityPicker crashes or reduce the number of web domain tokens?
For example, if there’s a way to reset the web domain tokens shown in FamilyActivityPicker from the Settings app, I could offer a help to users.
Does anybody have ideas?
Expanding SNS Category (29 items)
It succeeded.
Expanding Productivity & Finance (214 items)
It failed. The screen froze, then appears blank. When the number of items is around 100, the crash rate is 50%, but when the items are over 200, the crash rate is 100%.
Search Bar Problem
The search bar also has same problem. If the number of search results are small, it works good without any blank, but if there are a lot of search results (200+), the XCP crashes and the screen appears blank.
Code to Reproduce
import SwiftUI
import FamilyControls
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var selection = FamilyActivitySelection()
@State private var isPickerPresented: Bool = false
var body: some View {
VStack {
Button("Open Picker") {
isPickerPresented = true
}
}
.familyActivityPicker(isPresented: $isPickerPresented, selection: $selection)
}
}
Steps to Reproduce
Prepare a category that has 200+ items
Try to open the category in the picker
The screen will freeze, then appears blank.

A message filter extension is only forwarded SMSs by the OS for filtering, iMessages aren't.
But what is the situation with RCS messages? Will they be filterable by a message filtering extension?
Hi,
I'm currently working on an app made originally for iOS 15. On it, I add an observer on viewDidLoad function of my ViewController to listen for changes on the UserDefault values for connection settings.
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(settingsChanged), name: UserDefaults.didChangeNotification, object: nil)
Said values can only be modified on the app's section from System Settings.
Thing is, up to iOS 17, the notification fired as expected, but starting from iOS 18, the notification doesn't seem to be sent by the OS.
Is there anything I should change in my observer, or any other technique to listen for the describe event?
Thanks in advance.
I'm the developer of Camera RawX (avail on the Mac App Store).
I'm working on Camera RawX for iOS to provide Quick Look support for camera RAW files not supported by iOS.
I use the Files app to open a RAW file to invoke Quick Look on my iPad (it is running iOS 17.6.1).
The RAW file in question is a Fuji compressed RAF file.
When I tap on the RAF file, iOS opens the Quick Look window, but my app's Quick Look extension is not called.
If the RAW file in question is a Sigma Foveon X3F file, a file that has no native Apple RAW support, then my Quick Look extension is called and I'm able to display the image in the Quick Look window without issue.
It seems that a system recognized RAW file extension (RAF in this case), is not triggering my Quick Look extension. On the macOS, this works fine without any issue.
The strange thing is that my Thumbnail extension is being called when the RAW files show up in Files. Even if it is a RAF file. So it seems like a bug to me or am I missing something crucial in my Info.plist file?

Since I updated to iOS 18, CallKit-linked caller not display on screen of CarPlay.
CarPlay display only "{App Name} Caller ID".
When iOS version was 17.x, CarPlay displayed caller name of CallKit-linked contact.
I think CarPlay should perform the same function as iOS 17.
Please review it.

I would like to create a MailKit extension that will allow me to manage my existing messages. I would like to move them around form folder to folder and reqad and update their headers to store some metadata that will be used by the extension.
Looking at the documentation for MailKit suggests that I can only implement 4 types of handlers (content blocker, action handler, compose handler and security handler). I can’t see anything in the docs about being able to get a list of messages in the inbox and manipulate them.
Am I missing something?
I’d love to hear from someone who knows more about this topic before I get into a dead-end rabbit hole.
cheers,
