As l proceeded through the enrollment/membership. I found the price is fixed for US$99. At the end. What about Renewal. Is there any cost reduction for Apple Developers?

Hi, I've seen some apps that can have the widget background truly transparent ( not screenshot, code-level transparent) How did they do that? Is that allowed to publish in App Store?

Hello, My developer account was closed last week. In a conversation with Apple support, I was informed that the account was closed due to “inactivity”, but the account has always been in regular use and I was preparing to release an app last week. Now all my work is at a standstill because the account is “Acount Holder” and Apple Turkey Support team states that this account will never be reopened and that there is no support service for Developer account in Turkey. I asked for support for the Developer account globally, but they couldn't find it either. What can I do about this? My account was not inactive and I was constantly testing my apps via testflight and I submitted the latest version last week. Which department should I contact?

Hi Community! I have enrolled for an Apple Developer Account. Only 4 hours left until the 48-hour deadline runs out. On the account page it says pending in orange when I click on my name, but it also says that I need to complete payment. I have received an invoice and receipt from Apple confirming that it’s paid, so I’m not planning to pay again. Does this sound like everything is correct and I can just look forward to it, or does it sound like something is wrong? From people’s experience here, does it often take more than 48 hours? Petter

This wasn't happening until I updated Xcode to 16.2 (I'm using Sequoia 15.2). When I run any Mac app, I get these errors: Can't find or decode reasons Failed to get or decode unavailable reasons Can't find or decode disabled use cases I even got these errors running "Hello, world" which tells me that either I need to reinstall or there is a bug. Thanks for any help, -Ashley

Hey everyone, First time posting on here. I updated my iPhone 15Pro to 18.4 this morning march 5th, and almost immediately my phone started bugging. Safari won’t load, neither will some of my apps that are heavily data based like Mail. I tried WiFi and data, no difference, I tried different WiFi connections and even a hotspot. Siri and chatGPT also won’t load BUT instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, X, and threads are working perfectly fine. Most games won’t load either. I tried to use a VPN and it has allowed me to access everything that is down Including Siri. This is a temporary solution, hopefully there is a more permanent fix. Thank you all in advance.

Hi - I've been using logic for a few years now. Three days ago I whilst opening it, a pop up said MIDICORE was not working and I haven't been able to fix it since. I read online that booting up in safe mode + opening audio MIDI set up would fix it, thing is audio MIDI set up wont load up. Anyone knows how I can fix it? I am on the verge of tears as I cannot seam to find any information online about audio MIDI set up not opening. And I cannot seam to fix the MIDI issue without it. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m developing an app for managing internet services, which includes features like controlling modems, paying internet bills, purchasing internet packages, buying cameras, subscribing to FSafety (modem management), UltraFast (boosting internet speed for gaming), and selling health-related devices like blood glucose monitors, as well as other telecom-related products. I have some questions about Apple’s review process and payment policies: Do features like paying internet bills, buying internet packages, purchasing cameras, subscribing to FSafety and UltraFast violate any of Apple’s policies (App Store Review Guidelines)? If my app doesn’t violate any policies, how would Apple charge for these transactions, and what is the fee structure? If I use an external payment gateway (not Apple’s) for transactions like paying bills or buying products, would I need to provide additional documentation for my app to be approved on the App Store? What is the review process for apps with external payment features? Is there anything special I need to do when submitting the app to the App Store? I would appreciate any insights from those who have experience with developing apps that include payment functionality. Thanks so much!

Beta Update Feedback: iOS 18.3 The iOS 18.3 beta update has been a deeply frustrating experience due to numerous critical issues that severely impact the device's functionality. Below is a detailed report of the problems encountered: All major social applications, including WhatsApp, Instagram, and Photos, consistently crash. When launching these apps, the screen often turns dark before reverting to the home screen. This issue persists across other third-party and native apps, making the device unusable for basic tasks. The system frequently hangs, failing to process basic operations effectively. Restarting the device is often the only temporary solution; however, even after multiple restarts, the issues remain unresolved. Significant charging drops are observed, and the device intermittently fails to recognize the charger. Charging efficiency has drastically decreased, creating inconvenience for daily usage. The Photos app is riddled with bugs, making it nearly impossible to use. Basic functions such as viewing, editing, or sharing photos do not work properly. Every aspect of the update feels unstable, with issues cropping up in every corner of the system. The phone’s functionality has deteriorated, so it no longer performs as expected. Device Affected: iPhone 13 Impact Level: Severe This update has caused immense frustration and has made the iPhone 13 difficult.

Hello, I’m developing my project for the Swift Student Challenge and I have some questions about the platform it will be tested on. If I create an iOS app that uses ARKit, for example, will it be evaluated on a real iPhone or only in a simulator on a Mac? I ask this because some functionalities, such as camera-based augmented reality, don’t work properly in the simulator. I’d like to better understand the guidelines to ensure my project functions correctly during the evaluation. Thank you!

Hi I was thinking, wouldn’t it be awesome if Apple had a stock app? I know, it might sound crazy, but honestly, it would be a fantastic addition to their finance section! Imagine having a wallet, Apple credit card, and a stock app all in one place. In my opinion, that could totally revolutionize everything!

Hi there - I have an Issue everytime an app uses the Frontcamera, it crushes. I tried all the basic steps to help such as newstart of the phone, newest updates of the apps, reset all settings etc. nothing helps. I am now in IOS 26.1. Any Ideas?

Hello Apple Arcade Team, My partner and I are indie developers building premium spatial games for Apple platforms. We’ve created Cup Pong Galaxy, a 100% spatial game written specifically for Apple Vision Pro and we’d love to have it considered for Apple Arcade. ***** At-a-glance ***** Title: Cup Pong Galaxy Platform: Designed from the ground up for Vision Pro (spatial gameplay) Status: Approved for distribution on the App Store (release on hold pending Arcade interest) TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/aCBcUUJb (fully functional build) Game Footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGoJTfUwTdg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPExWW94ZvQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJOKXVhRShA ***** Why it stands out for Apple Arcade ***** Original spatial mechanics: Natural throwing using custom hand gestures and a physics-accurate ping pong system built for Vision Pro. Innovative collision system: Each animated alien has per-body-part collision objects that follow the armature's animation, allowing ping pong balls to bounce realistically off arms, legs, and heads. Epic scale: 10 unique worlds with over 50 animated 3D alien characters, 150+ unique 3D obstacles, and 100 total levels. Boss fights: Defeat bosses by hitting specific body parts with ping pong balls in full 3D space — we haven’t seen this implemented elsewhere on the App Store. Cinematic world progression: Animated 3D level maps and victory scenes as players conquer worlds. ***** Business/fit ***** No ads or in-app purchases; prepared to align with Apple Arcade guidelines. Actively adding Game Center integration. We’ve started work on a second VisionOS game and would love to understand what makes a game a great fit for Arcade. We’d be grateful if you could review Cup Pong Galaxy and let us know if there’s interest or point us to the correct person/process for Apple Arcade submissions. Any feedback is welcome — it will help us improve our next VisionOS game as well. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Apologies if this is the wrong place, I'm trying to enroll as a developer with my company. A long time ago I was invited to join, but had let the invitation expire. I'm working with my manager to try and get another email sent out inviting me into the program, but I'm not receiving anything in my inbox. Is there a known bug here? Is there something else that needs to be done to send out a second invite?

After updating to the newest beta on my iPhone 16 I'm stuck on this screen after accepting the terms: No Internet Connection Setup and activation of Apple Intelligence is unavailable when your device is offline. Connect to the internet and try again. I tried several different networks and 5G but no luck..

HAVE ANY ONE EXPERIENCE PASS KEY DEVICE PROMPTS RANDOMLY ON BETA IOS SOFTWARE >?

My iPhone 11 has iOS 18.4 Beta and my new iPhone 16e isn’t supported for iOS 18.4 Beta (for now) and is on iOS 18.3.1 Beta. If anyone knows when it’ll be supported please let me know.

Ok, so I’ve downloaded iOS 26 for the iPhone and iPad and there are a couple of points bugging me. Why oh why would somebody think that it was a good idea to remove the ability to scroll through photos in a folder in files? Where in their tiny minds did they think that opening a photo, viewing said photo, then closing photo to then open the next photo in sequence was a better or more productive way than just swiping left and right? I mean, seriously!!! And why the need for a separate Preview app when it worked fine opening files in the Files app?! I deleted the Preview app from my iPhone to see what difference it would make, but alas it made things worse. Now, because there’s no Preview app, Files wants to open my photos in an image editing app called Afterlite! I checked settings for the files app, and the only options I have for opening photos are Afterlite (which it’s decided to make default), the Photoshop app, or iMovie! Does anyone have any ideas how to get photos stored in the Files app to open IN the Files app or at least the Photos app? Just when I thought they’d come to their senses and sorted out that god awful iOS 18 Photos app, they go and do something like this! Also, can someone explain to me what the point is of having a month and year view in the Photos app? When I sort by month and pick a particular month or date in a month, instead of showing just those images taken that month, it just takes you back to the view with ALL of your photos? Surely if you have thousands of photos on your device and you want to see only photos on a particular date, it would make sense to show only the photos from that date. Even if it generated automatic albums under the album view for each month and year that would be something!

Only after buying a new iPhone 16e today 3/2 did I realize I couldn’t migrate the apps on my old iPhone SE, which was running beta 18.4. Yay, Apple. Thoughtful of you to introduce new hardware when the software isn’t yet released.
