Team-scoped keys introduce the ability to restrict your token authentication keys to either development or production environments. Topic-specific keys in addition to environment isolation allow you to associate each key with a specific Bundle ID streamlining key management. For detailed instructions on accessing these features, read our updated documentation on establishing a token-based connection to APNs.

I am writing to address a concern regarding the background permission functionality in my app, which is critical for ensuring user safety as they navigate various terrains. This feature also enables users to smoothly record their navigation tracks for review after their activities. Recently, I've noticed that this functionality is not working as seamlessly as before. Additionally, I observed that the app is not categorized under 'health and fitness'—could reclassifying it improve background activity? Before I delve into a detailed code review, I wanted to check if this issue might be related to sync or settings on the App Store side, such as permission configurations, app updates, or other related factors. Or, is it more likely an issue stemming from the app’s codebase?

We updated the apple-app-site-association file two weeks ago and we are only seeing the new content from Apple's CDN serving certain regions such as Texas and Canada. Regions such as Colorado intermittently sees the old content and California has been receiving the old content all the time. Is this a known issue? If yes, when can we expect this to be fixed and where to check the status? If not, can someone in charge of CDN please look into this? Let me know if there is a better place to report this issue and get the support ASAP though. Thank you in advance and happy new year!

I'm working on my first subscription for an app I've built, and can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong with this one whether it's something in Xcode or App Store Connect. Any idea where to start? Somethings to check. TIA.

I am the Lead iOS Developer for The Incc, an upcoming social networking application. The platform offers subscriptions that grant users access to premium content, primarily digital magazines showcasing diverse cultures, alongside standard social media features and additional unique functionalities. I am exploring two specific use cases for our subscription model. Promo Codes with Split Payments: We plan to collaborate with the our influencers (referred to as Mover Shakers) by providing them with promo codes for users to purchase subscriptions. For such purchases, we aim to implement a revenue split model, allocating 10% to the influencer and the remainder to us after Apple’s fees. Gifting Subscriptions: We also wish to enable users to gift subscriptions to others within the app. I understand that the Apple Subscription Service does not natively support these features. What other options do we have to achieve this that are also not against the Apple's guidelines.

我们项目使用了Appclip。之前默认轻App是可以正常打开的。但是最近发现在ios18系统及以上的时候，不能打开Appclip，而是跳转到safari浏览器中。请问该如何设置，可以在ios18以上系统中正常打开默认的Appclip？

I have shortcuts up and running and I have my custom response added to my completion handler since day1. Recently I upgraded to iOS18, and found out the app I develop can not display the custom response. I test the app on iOS17.6, the display of custom response is no problem. The situation is exactly like the problem posted on 2018: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/109324 Can anyone help me or have the same bugs? Thank you so much! Happy 2025

I am writing an app which mainly is used to update data used by other apps on the device. After the user initializes some values in the app, they almost never have to return to it (occasionally to add a "friend"). The app needs to run a background task at least daily, however, without the user's intervention (or even awareness, once they've given permission). My understanding of background refresh tasks is that if the user doesn't activate the app in the foreground periodically, the scheduled background tasks may never run. If this is true, do I want to use a background processing task instead, or is there a better solution (or have I misunderstood entirely)?

Hi, My iphone 12 has been restarting unexpectedly, and often followed by wifi, bluetooth, and airdrop grayed out. I had to force restart/shutdown several times to turn it on again. Found this analytics after crash. Please help if somebody know what this means: ExcUserFault_CategoriesService-2024-12-23-064503.ips

I would like to share my specific use case and seek your guidance on implementing it effectively within iOS: We are developing an iOS application that may run simultaneously on multiple devices near each other. The core functionality involves continuous Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanning to detect peripherals (beacons) in the range of a central device. The scanning needs to function seamlessly across the following states: • Foreground • Background • Locked mode (when the device is locked) Here are the detailed requirements: 1. Scanning Behavior: • The central device should continuously scan for nearby BLE peripherals (beacons). • If a new peripheral comes into range, the application should capture its data, including: • Device Name • MAC Address • Payload Data • RSSI (Signal Strength) 2. Peripheral Out-of-Range Handling: • If a detected peripheral (beacon) moves out of range, it should automatically be removed from the populated list displayed on the app. 3. Peripheral Reappearance: • If a peripheral (beacon) that moved out of range comes back into range, the application should detect it again and repopulate the list with updated data seamlessly. 4. Application State: • This behavior (scanning, detection, and updating) should work regardless of the app’s state: • Foreground • Background • Device Locked FYI, we are using Custom Ruuvi beacons Given the above requirements, I would greatly appreciate any guidance, suggestions, or best practices to implement this use case efficiently while adhering to iOS background execution and Bluetooth limitations.

I have sqlite database. I want to share this database file. It gives error after 4.3mb on old devices. But on new devices larger files can be shared. Is there a sharing limit or is there a ram limit etc. situation.

I am working on a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) project using the nRF52840 Development Kit (DK), which has been reconfigured to simulate an nRF52805 chip. The firmware is based on Nordic Semiconductor's ble_app_hids_keyboard example, with modifications to implement a BLE HID Gamepad. I am using the S113 SoftDevice and have successfully tested the functionality with Android devices. The gamepad is recognized as a HID device, and it works as expected on Android, verified using the hardwareTester website. However, when I connect the gamepad to an iPhone via BLE, the same hardwareTester website does not respond as it does on Android, indicating that the iPhone does not recognize the device as a gamepad. The BLE connection is established successfully, but it seems iOS does not interpret the HID report descriptor or the BLE HID service correctly. I suspect there might be compatibility issues with the HID descriptor or the GATT attributes for iOS-specific BLE HID requirements. I would like to have some help.

I've encountered an issue with Apple Pay in PC Chrome with iOS 18. Below is the scenario and code for reference: Issue Scenario: A button is clicked to initiate the Apple Pay process. A QR code window pops up, which I scan with my phone. As soon as the session is established, the window closes immediately, not allowing the user to select a payment card. No errors appear in the console. Here's the code snippet for handling the Apple Pay button click: const onApplePayButtonClicked = () => { if (!window.ApplePaySession) { return; } log('Apple Pay button clicked'); const request = { countryCode: 'UA', currencyCode: 'UAH', merchantCapabilities: ['supports3DS'], supportedNetworks: ['visa', 'masterCard'], total: { label: 'PoC Merchant Apple Pay', type: 'final', amount: amount.toString(), }, }; const session = new window.ApplePaySession(3, request); session.onvalidatemerchant = async (event) => { try { log('Creating ApplePaySession'); const response = await fetchAppleSessionAPI(event.validationURL, applePayMercantId, { deviceId, refreshToken }); log('validateMerchantResponse', response); session.completeMerchantValidation(response.applePaySessionData); } catch (error) { log('validateMerchantError', error); } }; session.onshippingmethodselected = () => { const newTotal = { label: 'PoC Merchant Apple Pay', type: 'final', amount: amount.toString(), }; session.completeShippingMethodSelection(window.ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS, {}, newTotal); }; session.onpaymentauthorized = async (event) => { log('onpaymentauthorized', event); const result = { status: window.ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS, }; session.completePayment(result); log('TOKEN', event.payment.token); }; session.begin(); }; Troubleshooting Steps Taken: Verified that window.ApplePaySession is available. Checked for any console errors—none found. Confirmed that the QR code scanning and session initiation work as expected. Expected Behavior: After scanning the QR code and establishing the session, the user should be able to select a payment card and proceed with the payment flow. Current Behavior: The window closes immediately after the session is established, preventing card selection. Has anyone else faced this issue or has insights on how to resolve it? Thanks in advance!

Is it ok to have latency about 4 sec? The amount of downloaded data is less than 1 MB. Maybe I need to setup an index for every field requested?

I'm try to monitor all processes by ES client. But I found the process name is different from the Activity Monitor displayed. As shown in the picture below, there are ShareSheetUI(Pages) and ShareSheetUI(Finder) processes in Activity Monitor, but I can only get the same name ShareSheetUI, I thought of many ways to display the name in parentheses, but nothing worked, so there is a way to display the process name like Activity Monitor?

I'm writing a SwiftUI LDAP Browser. I built a command line swift app to do some testing and it works fine. I had to add the certificates from the LDAP server to the system keychain before it would work with TLS/SSL. Then I ported the same code into a SwiftUI app but I cannot get it to connect via TLS/SSL. On the same machine with the same certs it errors with: An unexpected error occurred: message("Can't contact LDAP server") It connect fine with our TLS/SSL. I suspect this may have to do with App Transport Security. Can anyone point me in the right direction to resolve this? App is MacOS only.

Hi everyone, I submitted a request for the Location Push Service Extension entitlement back in November. I received an acknowledgment email from Apple confirming they had received my request, but I never heard back. Assuming the November request might have been lost in the shuffle, I submitted another request in January. It's been a week since then, and I still haven’t received any response. To follow up, I contacted Apple Support with my case number. Unfortunately, it seems they didn’t review the case properly, as the support assistant just sent me generic links about what to do when an app is rejected—which doesn’t apply here. Has anyone else experienced similar delays with this entitlement? Could there be specific reasons for such delays? Any tips on how to escalate this or get it addressed effectively would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!

We use network extension for the VPN connection implementation. In the network extension, we need to call a third-party library to do some check. Before the macOS is upgraded to 15.2, everything is fine. It just stop working after macOS is upgraded to 15.2. I did some debugging, and looks like the api provided by the dylibs is blocked. One system log is shown suspiciously Unable to create bundle at URL (<private>): unable to create file system representation of URL (13) The background is that we did embed the third-party dylibs in the app resources folder and the app extension tries to dlopen the dylibs and call the functions. And actually we do not know how the dylibs are implemented. Since it was working with older macOS, we would like to see if there is any related change on os itself. I have tried to change the places of dylibs, moving them from container app bundle resource folder to app extension resources folder, even the app group folder. Unfortunately it does not work either. Do you guys have any opinions?
