The functionality of authorizationStatus and requestAuthorization is completely broken. I'm using Xcode 15.3 and iOS 17.4.
Does anyone have a solution?
authorizationStatus doesn't behave as promised
Revoking authorization in the system-wide settings does not change the authorizationStatus while the app is not closed. Calls to center.authorizationStatus will still return .approved instead of .denied.
Even closing and relaunching the app after revoking authorization does not work: authorizationStatus is then .notDetermined when it should be .denied.
Tapping "Don't Allow" in the alert shown after an initial call to requestAuthorization leaves the authorizationStatus unchanged, i.e. at .notDetermined. This is contrary to the promised outcome .denied (defined as: "The user, parent, or guardian denied the request for authorization") and contrary to the definition of .notDetermined (defined as: "The app hasn’t requested authorization", when it just did).
Same issue when first tapping "Continue" followed by "Don't Allow" on the next screen.
As a consequence of authorizationStatus being broken, its publisher $authorizationStatus is worthless too.
requestAuthorization doesn't behave as promised
This is most likely a consequence of the corrupted authorizationStatus: when revoking authorization in the system-wide settings, a call to requestAuthorization opens the authorization dialogue instead of doing nothing. It is thus possible to repeatedly ask a user to authorize Family Controls.
Code sample
To reproduce, create a new SwiftUI app, add the "Family Controls" capability and a button executing the following task when tapped:
let center = AuthorizationCenter.shared
var status = center.authorizationStatus
print(status)
do {
try await center.requestAuthorization(for: .individual)
print("approved")
} catch {
print("denied")
}
status = center.authorizationStatus
print(status)

While developing our driver, we've noticed that the *.ips report that contains the stacktrace of the crash is not always generated. I'm wondering why this report may not get generated, or if there's anything specific to do to guarantee it gets generated.
Hi there 👋🏻
We are facing an issue that started on 24 June 2025 where some users that have an active subscription with an offer are not being able to use/restore their subscription since Transaction.currentEntitlements is empty.
We have tried to call the server with this endpoint https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get-transaction-history and it's returning the correct transactions correctly.
Any idea what is happening?
The error below started today 10/17/2024 (on iOS 18.1 beta 5/6/7 at least) in StoreKit sandbox testing. Outside code/app, I can't even login to the test account in settings->AppStore->Sandbox Account (goes through email/phone confirmation and then silently fails).
Tried a different password for a new sandbox test account with no success...Anyone experiencing this?
P.S. Status page (https://developer.apple.com/system-status/) shows some related outage from two days ago, but no current problem.

The most recent KDK for MacOS Sequoia that appears in the Downloads is for MacOS 15.5 (24F74), but the current version of MacOS Sequoia is 15.6 (24G84) and 15.7 (24G207) is in RC. Is there an ETA for the KDKs for 15.6 (24G84) and 15.7 (24G207) to be made available to download? Many thanks for any help.
Please help! I have a subscription IAP failing on tvOS 18.2 at:
func makePurchase(_ product: Product) async throws
{
let result = try await product.purchase() //ERROR OCCURS HERE (See error message below)
...
Xcode Console message: "Could not get confirmation scene ID for [insert my IAP id here]"
The IAP subscription was working fine on 18.1 and earlier, and the same IAP and code is also running fine on iOS 18.2. The tvOS error on 18.2 happens both in production and sandbox.
Are there any changes to StoreKit 2 which might cause this error?
Hello,
I'm trying to create a widget using the WidgetKit framework. In this part, I'm using Intents along with a DynamicOptionsProvider. As shown in the Medium article below, I want to present multiple options when "Edit Widget" is tapped:
https://levelup.gitconnected.com/swiftui-configurable-widget-to-let-our-user-choose-4a54e398f42f
However, in this example, the options are provided statically. What I want to achieve is to display a list of devices based on the selected HomeId after the user selects a Home. I’ve set up the interface accordingly, but when I select a Home, the device list does not update.
How can I make this work? The two options should be dependent on each other.
Hello there, I have a problem reaching the CloudKit dashboard. Every time I login, the login successes but then I get the error: An error has caused this web page to stop working correctly. This also happens when I click on the Button CloudKit dashboard. Then I can reload the page, but the same errors occurs again and again. Can someone help me with this problem?
Thank you very much
Hello,
I’m reaching out to gather information regarding the upcoming changes to APNs certificates that are set to be implemented in the beta at the end of January 2025.
Specifically, I would like to understand the following:
What will be the practical impact of these changes on apes apis ?
What actually needed to be done at trust store for this changes, and how will it affect our current setup?
What steps do we need to take to update the certificates on our servers?
it’s crucial for us to address these changes in advance and keep our customers informed.
Thank you for your help!
Since iOS 18.4 and macOS 15.4 updating the calendar of an (ek)event (to another accounts calendar) or detaching an repeating event throws an error while saving:
"Access denied"
EKEventStore.save(event, span: .thisEvent, commit: true)
catch {
"Access denied"
}
My app features two kinds of widgets, let's call them kind A and kind B.
I have both A and B widgets on my Home Screen. When I tap the button on widget A (associated with App Intent), I expect widget B to also reload.
However, if you call WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() inside the perform() method of the AppIntent, the timeline of widget B does not reload immediately. This issue only occurs on a physical device and is not consistently reproducible. On a simulator, however, widget B reloads as expected.

Hi! I've noticed that the IP_RECVIF socket option, i.e.:
int y = 1;
setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_RECVIF, &y, sizeof(y));
does not seem to work if the socket is proxied by a NETransparentProxyProvider type network extension: there's no ancillary data in messages received with recvmsg. As soon as I disable the network extension, recvmsg starts returning ancillary data containing the interface name.
This seems to break some applications which rely on IP_RECVIF in the presence of a transparent proxy, making it, in fact, not transparent. One such example is Apple's own libresolv, which relies on IP_RECVIF and breaks if there's no ancillary data in the recvmsg result.
I don't think that this is the intended behaviour, since IPV6_PKTINFO seems to work fine. I've filed a bug report (FB17586550) about this, however, I would greatly appreciate if someone could point me in the direction of a workaround.
Hello forum,
Hope all is great!
I have a shortcut automation which uses the transaction trigger. Since updating to ios 18 the transaction trigger does not work anymore.
Whenever a transaction is done, the “Running your automation” notification does not show up and the automation does not work.
To share with you the steps I’ve done so far:
1.Remove the automation and do it again
2.Remove the card from apple pay
3. Delete and install again the shortcut app
4. Turned on and off the phone
I can confirm the automation works on my other iPhone with the latest version of IOS 17.
Would really appreciate if anyone has any insights about that, or if this happened to you as well.
Cheers!

I am trying to implement a third party passkey credential provider and I have been able to successfully setup the project for that. Below is a sample code which I am using -
let passkeyRegistrationCredential = ASPasskeyRegistrationCredential(relyingParty: self.request?.credentialIdentity.serviceIdentifier.identifier ?? "", clientDataHash: self.request?.clientDataHash ?? Data(), credentialID: Data(credentialId), attestationObject: Data(attestationBytes)
self.extensionContext.completeRegistrationRequest(using: passkeyRegistrationCredential)
The attestationBytes object that I am generating and sending back to RP seems to work only if I set the "fmt" to "none", which basically requires "attStmt" to be sent as an empty value as per WebAuthn spec - https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-none-attestation
When trying to set the "fmt" to "packed" in attestation object and creating a self signed "attStmt" consisting of "alg" and "sig" key-values referring - https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-packed-attestation, it does not seem to work. The RP throws an error. I do not have "x5c" object as that supposedly is not mandatory in case of self attestation. I have "authData" also as part of the response properly setup.
Is it not possible to use packed attestation or am I missing something in creating the attestation object? Also, does Apple modify the response being sent in the background before sending to RP if packed fmt is used?

Hello,
The purpose of "Screen Time Passcode" under Settings/Screen Time is to protect Screen Time preferences and it is asked every time the user updates Downtime, App Limits, Content & Privacy Restrictions and so on.
But the private passcode is not requested if the user disables Screen Time for a particular app (only Face ID or phone passcode is requested, but not the private Screen Time passcode).
I think this is a mistake, I think the purpose of a private Screen Time passcode is to protect all settings, including apps that use this API, right?
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you.
Hello,
I received this message below. I reached out to support but they said they can not help with something this specific. Any organization in the same boat? Which of the certificates in the provided link should I use?
Hello,
We’re reaching out with a final reminder that the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. APNs updated the server certificates in sandbox on January 21, 2025. APNs production server certificates will be updated on February 24, 2025. To continue using APNs without interruption, you’ll need to update your application’s Trust Store to include the new server certificate: SHA-2 Root: USERTrust RSA Certification Authority certificate.
To ensure a smooth transition and avoid push notification delivery failures, please make sure that both old and new server certificates are included in the Trust Store before the cut-off date for each of your application servers that connect to sandbox and production. At this time, you don’t need to update the APNs SSL provider certificates issued to you by Apple.
Hi,
On iOS 26 beta, calls can no longer be reported by swiping left on a call.
This is unfortunately a breaking change.
I have submitted a report on this on June with Feedback Assistant: FB17893517
I hope it will get some more exposure by posting here.
I am getting the subject error while simulating Free trial. It is in console.
Free trial proceeds but I cant figure out the error meaning.
I could not find anything similar on the net or documentation.
iOS 18.1 StoreKit2 SwiftUI
Has anyone had similar issue that could advise ?
I can reproduce the bug that CallKit doesn't active audiosession after the outgoing call put on hold because of an incoming call.
VoIP calling with CallKit
Steps to reproduce:
Download SpeakerBox example app from the link above and start it with XCode
Start a new outgoing call
Call your phone from other phone
Hold and Accept the call
After a few secs finish the call from the other phone
The outgoing call will be still on hold
Click on the call and click Toggle Hold
The call won't be active again because the audiosession is activated.

It looks like ExtensionKit (and ExtensionFoundation) is fully available on iOS 26 but there is no mention about this in WWDC.
From my testing, it seems as of beta 1, ExtensionKit allows the app from one dev team to launch extension provided by another dev team. Before we start building on this, can someone from Apple help confirm this is the intentional behavior and not just beta 1 thing?
