Subject: Assistance Needed with Enabling Speech Recognition Entitlement for iOS App
Hi everyone,
I’m seeking guidance regarding the Speech Recognition entitlement for my iOS app using Capacitor. Our App and we submitted a request to Apple Developer Support four days ago, but have not yet received a response.
🧩 Summary of the issue:
Our app uses the Capacitor speech recognition plugin (@capacitor-community/speech-recognition) to listen for native voice input on iOS.
We have added both of the required keys in Info.plist:
NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription
NSMicrophoneUsageDescription
We previously had a duplicate microphone key, which caused the system to silently skip the permission request. After removing the duplicate, we did briefly see the microphone permission prompt appear.
However, in our most recent builds, the app launches without any prompts, even on a fresh install. The plugin reports:
available = true
permissionStatus = granted
Despite this, no speech input is ever received, and the listener returns nothing.
We believe the app is functioning correctly at a code level (plugin loads, no errors, correct Info.plist), but suspect the missing Speech Recognition entitlement is blocking actual access to the speech system.
🔎 What we need help with:
How can we confirm whether the Speech Recognition entitlement is enabled for our App ID?
If it’s not enabled, is there a way to escalate or re-submit the request? Our app is currently stuck until this entitlement is granted.
Thank you for your time and any guidance you can offer!

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out the behavior of AssetPackManager.shared.remove(assetPackWithID: ).
I'm working with MapKit tiles and currently working on trying projecting them correctly which involves serving the AssetPack locally, downloading, checking alignment, and then deleting and changing.
My question is that remove(assetPackWithID: ) completes successfully and the asset pack is removed. This is confirmed by trying to remove the AssetPack again which throws an error.
However, the asset is still appearing on MapKit after the removal. This is a bit odd as this persists not only with force killing, but also restarting the device.
Please advise on how to properly remove an AssetPack.
Thank you

Just recently, any pkg file that I create with pkgbuild will install the Payload's application as a zero-byte file in the /Applications directory. This has been working for years without issue for me.
Here are the commands I am using with company specific items replaced:
pkgbuild --analyze --root MyApplicationRootDirectory standalone.plist
plutil -replace BundleIsRelocatable -bool NO standalone.plist
pkgbuild --identifier MyIdentifier --version 1.0 --install-location /Applications --root MyApplicationRootDirectory --component-plist standalone.plist --sign 'Developer ID Installer: MyCompany (MySignId)' --timestamp installer.pkg
Any ideas on what could be causing the issue?
I have verified the following:
The application being added to the pkg is both signed and notarized using the correct Developer ID Application certificate.
The resultant pkg file is both signed and notarized using the Developer ID Installer certificate.
Verified the pkg contents using "pkgutil --expand" to dump the contents.
Verified the pkg's Payload contents by extracting the data using "cat Payload | gunzip | cpio -1". This results in an application file that is a binary match for file added in the "pkgbuild --root" argument.
My application is the only file within the directory passed to the "pkgbuild --root" argument.
There are no warnings in the System Settings / Privacy & Security Panel when running the package installer.
I have a valid Mac Developer account.
I am building the application and the pkg file on the same computer.
Thank you for any insight.
I have two feedbacks now where I’ve been requested additional info, and provided it, but the feedback still has an “unread” dot, and is still in the “Requests” folder. I’ve asked multiple times to clear this status in one of those feedbacks (FB14888965), but got no response.
Not the end of the world as long as the engineers are notified, but iirc the dot would disappear as soon as I replied.
Simply opening Simulator app (26.0) causes high CPU usage on macOS Tahoe (26.1).
ReportCrash process usage is very high throughout and causes the system to heat up pretty soon.
Looking into Console app for the logs found MercuryPosterExtension process is keep on crashing. (Check under Crash Reports)

Share the Simulator Diagnose report while reporting, Thanks.
I have raised a ticket/feedback with Apple. I request all of you to raise one too so this gets fixed soon.

I was just having a look at some crash reports downloaded by Xcode, and I noticed the same wrong pattern I already mentioned here: the crash reports indicate that method A calls method B, which is impossible.
In the first crash report below, method MainViewController.showSettings seems to be called by ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder, which is impossible. ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder is a context menu action in a modal window, and MainViewController.showSettings is in a completely different window and the two methods have no relation whatsoever.
In the second crash report below, MainViewController.setSortMode is triggered by the press of a button (and nothing else) but seems to be called by OtherViewController.copy that can be triggered by a context menu (or keyboard shortcut). The two methods have no relation whatsoever. The rest of the stack trace confirm that it's indeed the button that was pressed.
This seems to me like a quite serious bug in how macOS creates crash reports.

Hello, I am experiencing crash on TopShelf and I checked all the crashlogs, but I don't know how to interpret it.
I see only addresses in the trace logs, so it's really hard to understand what's going on. Is there a way how to symbolicate frames 5 - 17?
Does anybody have an idea, what can be wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Our app has an old codebase, originating in 2011, which started out as purely Objective-C (and a little bit of Objective-C++), but a good amount of Swift has been added over time as well. Lots of Objective-C and Swift inter-op, but in general very few 3rd party libraries/frameworks. Like many other codebases of this size and age, we have a good amount of accumulated tech debt. In our case, that mostly comes in the form of using old/deprecated APIs (OpenGL primary amongst them), and also using some ‘tricks’ that allowed us to do highly customized UI popups and the like before they were officially supported by iOS, but unfortunately are still in use to this day (i.e. adding views directly to the UIWindow such that that are ‘on top’ of everything, instead of presenting a VC). Overall though, the app is very powerful and capable, and generally has a relatively low crash rate.
About two months ago, we started seeing some new crashes that seemed to be totally unrelated to the code changes that were made at the time. Moreover, if a new branch with a feature or bug fix was merged in, the new crash would either disappear entirely, or move somewhere else. These were not ‘normal’ crashes either - when hooked up to the debugger in Xcode, often times the crashes would happen when calling into system library (e.g. initializing a UIColor object).
Some of the steps taken to try and mitigate or eliminate these crashes include:
Rolling back merges
Often worked, but then most future merges would cause a new and different crash to appear
Using the TSan and ASan tools to try and diagnose thread or memory issues
TSan reported a couple of issues near launch that have been fixed, and there are others in some areas of the app, but they have been around a long time and don’t appear to correlate with any recent changes, nor did fixing the ones at launch (and throughout testing to try and reproduce crashes) result in elimination of the new crashes
ASan does not identify any issues
Modifying the code changes in a branch before merging it in
In one case where the changes were limited to declaring ‘@objc static var: Bool’ in a Swift class and setting a value to it in a couple of places, simply removing the @objc from the declaration would result in the crash going away. Since the var had to be exposed to Objective-C, it was eventually moved to a pure Objective-C class that already existed and is a singleton (not ideal, but it’s been around a long time and has not yet been refactored) in order to preserve the functionality and the crash was no longer reproducible
Removing all 3rd party libraries or frameworks
Not a long-term solution, and this mostly worked in that the crashes went away, but it also resulted in removal of long-existing features expected by our users
Updating 3rd party libraries and frameworks when possible (there were some very old ones)
Updating these did not have any effect on the crashes, except that the crashes moved around in the same way as when merging in a branch, and again, where the crash actually occurred was uncorrelated with the library/framework that was updated
Changes to the App’s Build Settings in Xcode
Set supported/valid architectures to arm64 exclusively
Stripping of all architectures other than arm64 from 3rd party binaries
Cleaning up of old/outdated linker flags
Removal of other custom build flags that were needed at one point, but are no longer relevant
Generally trying to make all the build settings in our (quite old/outdated) app match those of a newly created iOS app
Code signing inject base entitlements is set to YES
Removal of old/deprecated BitCode flag
These changes seemed to help and the codebase was more ‘stable’ (non-crashing) for a while, but as we tried to continue development, the crashes would reappear
Getting crash reports off of test devices and analyzing them based on the various documents about crash reports provided by Apple
This was helpful and pointed to new things to investigate, but ultimately did not help to identify the root cause of these crashes
Throughout all of the above, the crashes would come and go, very reproducibly for a given branch being merged in, but if a subsequent branch is merged in, the crash may go away, or simply move somewhere else - sometimes it would crash in our code that calls other parts of our code, and other times when calling system frameworks (like the UIColor example above). One thing that is consistent though, is that the crash would never happen anywhere near the code that was changed or added by a branch that was merged in.
Additional observations when trying to figure out the cause of these crashes:
Sometimes the smallest code change would result in a crash happening or not
The crash reports generated on-device vary quite a bit in terms of the type and reason for the crash
All crashes have an Exception Type of EXC_BAD_ACCESS, but vary between (SIGABRT) (SIGBUS) (SIGKILL) (SIGSEV)
The crashing thread is often (but not always) on Thread 0 (main thread), and often the first line in the backtrace would be just ‘???’, sometimes followed by a valid memory address and file, but often times just ‘0x0 ???’
Most crash reports have an exception subtype of KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE
Many also state that the Termination Reason is ‘CODESIGNING 2 Invalid Page’
This in particular was investigated thoroughly, including looking at the Placing Content In A Bundle document but after further changes to ensure that everything is in the right place, the crashes were still observed
Another odd thing in most of the crash reports is in the Binary Images section, there is a line that once again is mostly ???s or 000s - specifically ‘0x0 - 0xffffffffffffffff ??? unknown-arch <00000000000000000000000000000000> ???’
The crashes occur on different physical devices, typically the same crash for a given branch, and regardless of iOS version
This includes building from different Macs. We did observe some differences between versions of Xcode (crashed similarly when built from an older version of Xcode, but not from a newer one), but we recently had all developers ensure they are running Xcode 16.4 - we also tried Xcode 26, but the crashes were still observed
Overall, it seems like there is something very strange going on in terms of how the App binary is constructed such that a small code change somehow affects the binary in such a way that memory is not being accessed correctly, or is not where it is expected to be. This level of what appears to be a build-time issue that manifests in very strange run-time crashes is both confusing and difficult to diagnose. Despite the resources provided by Apple for investigation and diagnosis, we cannot seem to find a root cause for these crashes and eliminate them for good.
I have one iOS device running iOS 16.7.10. When I run xcrun devicectl list devices I can't see that device at all. Is that know limitation (devicectl only work in iOS 17 and above) or is something wrong with my setup.
Also is there some documention about devicectl. I can't seem to find anything about in the offical apple sites.

Hi everyone,
We’re testing the new iOS 26 capability, Performing Fast Account Creation with Passkeys, using the sample project provided here: Performing Fast Account Creation with Passkeys.
When running the project on the iOS 26 simulator and tapping the "Sign Up" button, we encounter the following error:
The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError error 1010.)
From the header file, this error is described as:
/// ASAuthorizationError.h
/// This error signals that the device is not currently set up to create passkeys.
ASAuthorizationErrorDeviceNotConfiguredForPasskeyCreation AS_API_AVAILABLE(ios(19.0), macos(16.0), visionos(3.0)) = 1010,
We’ve tested this on both Xcode 26 Beta 1 and Beta 2, and the error persists on the simulator in both versions.
However, when testing on a physical iOS 26 device, everything works as expected, just like in the WWDC demo.
Could this issue be related to missing simulator settings? Or is it a potential bug in the simulator? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
I have an Xcode project setup as follows:
3 static libraries
1 framework target, whose Mach-O type is set to Dynamic Library
main app target (iOS app)
The target dependencies are as follows:
In framework's build phase [Link with libraries], I have the 3 libs statically linked.
In the main app's build phase [Link with libraries], I have only the framework, which is dynamically linked.
As per my understanding:
The libs are statically linked to the framework. So, the framework binary would contain code from all the libs.
The framework is dynamically linked to the main app (iOS app in this case). So, the main app's binary only has a reference to the framework's binary, which would be loaded in the memory at runtime.
Assuming my understanding is correct, I'm stuck with the following problem:
All 3 libs build successfully
The framework builds successfully
The main app target doesn't build. The compilation is successful, but the build fails with linker errors.
Please let me know if I am doing something incorrectly, or if a configuration is missing. Below are more details:
The linker gives the following error:
Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:
"StringUtils.GetStr() -> Swift.String", referenced from:

And the command shown in the logs for linking phase is:

I've been messing around with converting my app icons to use Icon Composer. My app has multiple app icons, but I've noticed that I cant seem to set .icon files using the alternate app icon api. I believe this is due to the requirement that alternate app icons live in the Assets Catalogue but .icon files go anywhere in your project. Is there any plan to support this? Or am i missing something?
I was able to successfully set a .icon file for the primary app icon.
I'm trying to download the iOS 26 restore image for my iPhone 14 Pro Max, which is my test device. However, when I attempted to install it directly via the over-the-air (OTA) update, the iPhone rebooted to the iOS 26 "Welcome" screen, but with no touch functionality—the screen was completely unresponsive.
I restored the device back to iOS 18.5 and tried the OTA update again, but once more, the touch screen stopped working upon completion.
Now, I am trying to download the iOS 26 restore image from the official developer page (https://developer.apple.com/download/#ios-restore-images-ipad-new) to install it manually using my Mac. However, I've run into a problem with the download links:
The link for the iPhone 14 Pro Max (iOS 26) restore image actually downloads the iPhone 14 Pro (iOS 18.5) image.
Conversely, the link for the iPhone 14 Pro seems to provide the correct iPhone 14 Pro Max (iOS 26) image.
The issue is that when I try to restore my iPhone using this seemingly correct file, I receive an error that the firmware file is not valid or compatible. I suspect it's not being properly signed by Apple for my device during the restore process.
Does anyone have the correct, official download link for the iOS 26 restore image for the iPhone 14 Pro Max? How can I fix these errors?
I just noticed that when you check the online documentation for Foundation using the delicious Objective-C flavor, some values are no more the expected ones:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/filemanager/copyitem(at:to:)?language=objc#return-value
true if the item was copied successfully or the file manager’s delegate stopped the operation deliberately. Returns false if an error occurred.
Considering that a BOOL used to be YES or NO for the last quarter of a century, I have the following question:
[Q] What is the idea behind the disturbing changes of the Objective-C documentation?
For my app Find Any File, of which both releases and TestFlight betas were released many times, the TestFlight page tells me that several users have submitted crash reports. And I'm sure the same is true for the MAS releases:
(Yes, this shows quite recent ones, but I've seen similar supposed crash report submits in this list before.)
However, the actual "Crashes" listing on the appstoreconnect sites hasn't show any new crash reports for many months now:
(This is the entirety of crash reports I can get listed, even when removing all filters.)
Something appears to be stuck, on Apple's end.
The same issue is with Xcode's Organanizer window, for "Crashes": It also used to list only the same very old reports and nothing since May 2024. And just now, when I retried this in Xcode, I'm shown a weird error message I never saw before:
Error Downloading Crashes List
An error occurred… Access Restricted with adam id: 1207815783
And yes, I'm logged in just fine, under Prefs / Accounts.
How am I going to get this investigated? I had already sent an email about this to the Review team, who didn't react to it at all. DTS is only for Code level support, which this isn't.
Any help?

"ITMS-91061: Missing privacy manifest - Your app includes “Contents/Frameworks/FlutterMacOS.framework/Versions/A/FlutterMacOS”, which includes Flutter, an SDK that was identified in the documentation as a commonly used third-party SDK. Starting February 12, 2025, if a new app includes a commonly used third-party SDK, or an app update adds a new commonly used third-party SDK, the SDK must include a privacy manifest file or you won’t be able to submit the app for review in App Store Connect. Please contact the provider of the SDK that includes this file to get an updated SDK version with a privacy manifest. For more details about this policy, including a list of SDKs that are required to include signatures and manifests, visit: https://developer.apple.com/support/third-party-SDK-requirements.

Please suggest a solution to solve this issue as early as possible , because February 12th onwards we will get blocked to release new versions
Up to now I've been building my x64 binaries on Sequioa specifying a target macOS level of 13.4. That worked fine.
In an attempt to debug a problem that was causing some pain I created a 13.4 x64 build environment and tried to build the code there.
This code:
using CacheKeyType = std::filesystem::path;
using CacheValueType = std::tuple<LoadedImage, int, bool>; // <image, lastUse, currentlyLoading>
using CacheType = std::unordered_map<CacheKeyType, CacheValueType>;
friend class ThreadLoader;
static inline constexpr int16_t MAXIMAGESINCACHE = 20;
static inline constinit std::atomic_int age{ 0 };
static inline std::shared_mutex rwMutex{};
static inline CacheType imageCache{};
got me the following errors:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX13.3.sdk/usr/include/c++/v1/__hash_table:838:5: error: static_assert failed due to requirement 'integral_constant<bool, false>::value' "the specified hash does not meet the Hash requirements"

2 errors generated.
Which isn't "mega-helpful" :(
I thought that specifying:
set(CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 13.4 CACHE STRING "Minimum operating system version for deployment" FORCE)
would have made the compilations use the same headers as for Ventura above, but it seems not?
Is this to be expected?

Hello,
I'm checking to see if anyone else is experiencing an issue downloading the latest beta simulator.
When I try to download the iOS 26 beta 5 simulator in Xcode, the download fails instantly. There is no progress, just an immediate error with no message other than the code itself: DVTDownloadableErrorDomain Code: 41.
I've already restarted both Xcode and the Mac multiple times. I have also tried downloading on different networks to rule out a firewall issue.
