Cyber Stalking from Criminal Organization
This is unique situation, save your rhetoric calling me crazy unless you’re willing to look at the evidence I’ve collected over the last 2 years. My entire family is being stalked and harassed by a DOD Contractor named Galapagos Federal Systems. They are literally using our identities to and accounts they’ve created to run Amazon Marketplace Business Accounts as sellers. They have amended my tax returns and they have hijacked my domain, which is MauiEasyRiders.Com. It’s pretty easy to see that they’ve hikacked my domain as they are using more than 20 ports around the clock, and I had to walk away from my business of 15 years because of a DDoS attack that is literally impossible to escape. These people are the lowest of the low. They have 250 million dollars in DODcontracts and they are registered as a small section 8a Native Hawaiian owned business, regardless of the fact that the owner is not Hawaiian and not from Hawaii, and the business was formed in Delaware. Their headquarters is literally a house in a neighborhood with nothing but a big ass can in the driveway, no traffic, no offices, just spook government hacks. I’ve mailed a complaint to the DOD hotline, been to the FBI in person, filled out all the forms online for every possible agency, filed police reports, nobody will even glance at the data I’ve accumulated and meticulously detailed, both in pdf format and on paper. They’re using my mothers identity and the identities of my two adult sons. It’s ridiculous. I literally have 90 Ip addresses in my DNS Leak Test and my home WiFi is hosting 190 IP Addresses. They have a Cisco business account in my name with over two hundred ASA and Fire IO devices that are years out of date. I have their exploit data, names, email addresses, absolutely everything I could possibly need that anyone investigating fraud would ask for, yet these parasites continue to carry out their crimes as if the law doesn’t apply to them. The only thing I have not tried is going to my Representatives from Washington in person. Anyone have any ideas? I’m happy to share data if anyone is interested in seeing it, even if you’re not interested in helping I’m happy to share all the info I can on their fraud. Thanks in advance!

Broken YouTube audio at anything other than 1x speed
Since updating to tvoS 26.1/2 YouTube audio breaks when playing videos at anything other than 1x speed. At 1.25x or higher, the audio is "static-y" and distorted almost immediately. Strangely, AirPods work fine, it only happens with other audio outputs. Anyone else experiencing this, or have a fix? tvOS: 26.2 (23J582) YouTube app: 4.51.08 Speed Output Static 1x TV speakers No 1x HomePods No 1x AirPods Pro 3 No 1.25x TV speakers Yes 1.25x HomePods Yes 1.25x HomePods Mini Yes 1.25x Sonos One Yes 1.25x AirPods Pro 3 No

App Review 5.2.1 Ownership Rejection — Product Name vs Legal Entity Confusion (Advice Needed)
Hi everyone, I’m running into repeated App Store rejections under Guideline 5.2.1 (Ownership) and would appreciate advice from anyone who’s navigated this successfully. Context: • The app is called FitQuest: AI Health Coach • FitQuest is a product/brand name, not a legal entity • The legal owner and operator is PandeyInvestment LLC • The Apple Developer account is under PandeyInvestment LLC • There are no third-party brand affiliations or white-label use • The app was built using a third-party app builder (web-to-native wrapper) What I’ve already provided to App Review: • Official LLC formation documents • A signed ownership & authorization letter explicitly stating: • FitQuest is a product owned by PandeyInvestment LLC • PandeyInvestment LLC is solely responsible for the app, services, and data • Clear explanations in Resolution Center replies Despite this, Apple continues to respond that the app “appears to be created from an app generation service and not directly submitted by the owner/provider of the business or service,” and asks again whether FitQuest is a business entity. My questions: 1. Is Apple expecting the app name to exactly match the legal entity name in cases like this? 2. Has anyone resolved a similar issue without creating a separate DBA or renaming the app to the LLC name? 3. Are there specific metadata fields (Seller Name, Copyright, Support URL, etc.) that reviewers rely on more heavily for ownership verification? 4. Is there additional documentation Apple typically accepts beyond LLC registration + signed authorization? Any guidance or firsthand experience would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Feedback concerning submission.
Hello all! My name is Luke, and I'm a 14 year old with a idea for SSC. This is my first SSC submission ever. I would like some feedback concerning a question. My app is an AI powered academic planner that helps you and your life. I won't give too much away, but I believe it's a really helpful concept. It uses a mini on-device LLM (built with simple if this word typed then do this logic) to help organize assignments. This is a real business I am building, and I put inside of my app simulated features such as the app saying "scanning your Google Classroom..", would this go against any terms and make the app less likely to win? I also have my app fully polished, and feels like an actual app and finished product, with demo assignments pre-loaded, and most stuff is placeholders. Should the app be more like a guided simulator? Such as "click here to see how this will be simulated in a final release" or again should it be polished? I just want some feedback, since I only have 3 minutes, and the app needs to be offline, I just want to improvise. Hopefully I can get some feedback from the community, and/or ex-winners! Thanks all! And good luck! :) - Luke

Is it safe to manually edit Package.swift (iOS Version & Orientation) for SSC 2026?
Hi everyone, I am working on my submission for the Swift Student Challenge 2026 using a Swift App Playground (.swiftpm). The default project was set to iOS 16, but I manually edited the Package.swift file to change the minimum version to iOS 18.0 so I can use the latest APIs. I also modified the supportedInterfaceOrientations to lock the app to Portrait mode only. I know the file contains a warning saying "Do not edit it by hand," so I am worried about two things: Disqualification: Will manually changing the iOS version from the default 16.0 to 18.0 cause any issues with the submission validator or the judging environment? Orientation: Is it acceptable to strictly force .portrait mode for the challenge, or are we required to support landscape/responsive layouts for the judges' iPads? I want to make sure these manual changes won't technically invalidate my playground. Thanks for your help!

App Idea Requires Sign-In
Hello Apple Developer community! While reading the SSC Full Terms and Conditions, I noticed that "Your app playground requires sign in" is a term for disqualification. If our app idea requires sign in for personalization and security, can we submit a prototype without the sign in feature and add it later before publishing the app? Or should we steer clear of app ideas that require sign in altogether?

Wallet authentication rejected. Any recommended approach?
Hello, Our messaging app was rejected with guidelines 4.0 and 4.2.3 for using wallet authentication. Rejection reasons: "App uses web browser to sign in" we use deep links to native wallet apps, but they fallback to browser when wallets aren't installed "Requires users to download external apps" (Phantom/Solflare/Backpack wallets) Our situation: Wallet authentication is identity verification users sign with their private key There's no username/password alternative - the wallet address IS the identity Similar Web3 apps are approved on the App Store. Or like similar to whatsapp using phone number as the authentication to start with. What's the recommended implementation for wallet-based auth on iOS? Should we just provide a demo mode for reviewers like they suggested for? If so, how do we handle features requiring a real wallet. And can we remove that on later versions of the app? Is there a way to satisfy these guidelines while maintaining wallet authentication? Thank you.

Swift student challenge- help
To whoever is bothered enough to help (trust me, I get the feeling if you're not), I want to enter the swift student challenge either this year or next year, depending on how things play out. Anyway, I just wanted to know two things: 1) how long on average it takes to build a project which won distinguished winner and 2) whether any distinguished winners could send me the playgrounds they built. To be clear, I do not want the code, I just want to know what you did, what you called the playground, a list of some features it had, how long it took, just to help me prepare, because YouTube doesn't have much of that. Thanks :)

Swift Playgrounds iOS 26 support
My app uses Foundation Models and Apple Pencil. The app runs great through Xcode; however, due to Apple Pencil support, it has to be run on a physical device. However, Swift Playgrounds on iPad doesn't support iOS 26. I was just wondering if this is something that can be mentioned in submission notes. eg. The app needs to be compiled in Xcode but run on a physical device.” Or should we expect iPadOS 26 support for Swift Playgrounds by the time of submission? Thank you!

Whether SSC can be connected to the iPad real machine with Xcode to run the evaluation
👋Hi This problem is related to SSC. I remember that the form submitted last year needed to be filled in with Xcode or Playground test, and it seems that it was also mentioned: • If you use Xcode, the judges may use Simulator to run. • If you use Playground, it's a real machine. But my work this time will encounter two limitations: It will use the framework/API only available in iPadOS 26 (so if it is a Playground environment, it may not run, playground can't use iPadOS 26 SDK) It will also use some content that must be real to run (such as ARKit), which means that Xcode Simulator is not good. So I would like to ask: Does this year's review allow you to compile and connect the iPad to the real machine? Or did I misremember last year's regulations? If the judge's environment is fixed (for example, only Playground or only Simulator), how should I adjust the submission method or implement the scheme? Looking forward to your reply, thank you.

Membership
Hello, I am a developer from Russia, I recently paid for a subscription to apple developer. 8,990.00 Russian rubles were debited from me. The subscription is displayed in my active subscriptions from my apple account. It shows in the application that the enrollment through the application is not working. The payment receipt was sent to the post office when, how much, and for how long everything about the subscription is. Tell me what are my next steps, how much should I reap?

Enrollment charged 4 times
I am frustrated with the slow response from the support. I kept paying 4 times for my developer account from 31/12 (3 days ago) and my bank card actually got charged €396. It was because when I logged in, I kept seeing the button Purchase now, although I paid previously. I thought the payment did not come through. Does anyone face the same issue before? What is the best way to reach the support people? Thanks.
