I tried dragging an apns file for a live activity into my simulator to begin a Live Activity. It didn't do anything. I didn't see it mentioned in the wwdc videos either. So I'm wondering if this experience is not yet developed, or maybe I'm doing something incorrectly?

Hello, I am doing the SwiftUI tutorial with Xcode 16.2 For the watch app the simulator working fine but the preview keep saying “This app cannot run on the selected target device.” while the preview is working …… For the macOS part the simulator working fine but the preview is totally broken with -> ”ContentView.swift” not found in any targets.

ive been using the mac m1 for almmost a year and it used to run vision pro simulator on xcode 15 quite smoothly but now its quitting unexpectedly showing errors in loading the realtiykit content

When I try to build my project in Xcode (from Unity AR) project, it throws me these errors: I feel like I've tried everything to make the LaunchScreen work. I downloaded xcode the night I tried running this build, so the whole deleting and redownloading and restarting everything didn't work. I've tried making sure my macbook and terminal are fully up to date. I literally can't find a solution! Please help!! I will also say, I'm fairly new to App building, Xcode, and Unity. But this does seem like a barrier that is stopping me from testing my project.

I'm trying to evaluate if we can support AR navigation with MapKit. The feature is supposed to be available for users in US. I tried to run the sample on my iPhone: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/tracking-geographic-locations-in-ar?language=objc But I'm in a location that ARGeoTrackingConfiguration.checkAvailabilityWithCompletionHandler: always return false. I think ARGeoAnchor isn't supported in my location. I tried to use simulated locations by Adding a gpx file when launching the app. Enabling Xcode -> Debug -> Simulate Location -> New York, NY, US But the availability for ARGeoAnchor is still false. Is that possible for me to develop the ARGeoAnchor feature outside of the covered areas?

Have been trying to enroll in the Apple developer program, but every time after filling out all the forms and agreeing to the agreements, I'm being prompted with, "We are unable to process your request" repeatedly. I wanted to know what is the issue and how to fix it so I can properly enroll in the developer program

Hi, is there documentation on how to write a deep link that will open Xcode on a given file, and optionally a line number? I know about xed, and I would like exactly that functionality, but in link form, so that I can link to a certain file from an app such as Obsidian or from a README.md file. I checked Xcode's Info.plist and it understands several URL schemes, the most promising of which is xcode://, which successfully launches the app, but no matter what I tried, I get an error dialog telling me that Xcode did not understand the URL. Any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Victor

We have recently developed the iwatch app. We will package the APP + iwatch app and publish it in testfight for test download. However, we often find that after the mobile app is downloaded, the iwatch app is also on the iwatch System application inside display. Click install is always in the installation. It has not been installed. Especially when the phone we tested is paired with several watches. Or delete the mobile APP and download it again to recover. But some situations still cannot be recovered. May I ask why it is always installed? We have confirmed that there is no problem with the network, and the pairing connection between the watch and the mobile phone is normal. This problem has caused us a lot of trouble. I wonder if this will happen in the app store. Please give the official reply

I have a Mac Mini (M4) running macOS Sequoia 15.3.1. I very recently downloaded and installed the current version of XCode from the app store. I have not added any extensions - it's a vanilla, un-customized, un-enhanced installation. I have two user profiles (accounts) on my Mac: one Administrator and one Standard, each using a different apple account. I am using the Standard user account to learn XCode. When I attempt to set up a project, I get an error message when Xcode initially tries to save the (provided) project template file. The error states: "Failed to save Project2.xcodeproj. The backing file has been modified outside of XCode." I am using a NAS drive to store my project file. I have also tried saving it to the Desktop. It makes no difference to the error wherever the file is being saved. Similarly, I tried changing the Standard user account to an Administrator account to see if it was a privileges problem. Again, it made no difference to the error message. (So I changed the account back to a Standard user). I have tried googling the error but I only find references to problems related to extension/add-in products to XCode: none of which have I added to my XCode installation. I am attaching screenshots of the steps through the project creation process. Hopefully someone can tell me what I am doing wrong or what the problem is. Thank you.

I am currently using Xcode 16 (16A242d) and testing on an iPhone 7 running iOS 12.1.3. However, when I try to launch the app on the device, it crashes immediately.

I am developing a game that has 3 team members. I can manually start up 3 simulators and run the game for developing/testing but seem like there should be a simple way to click build/run and have it launch on all three automatically. Does anyone know how to do this or if its even possible without writing some scripts?

I work on an app that has the com.apple.developer.mail-client entitlement. We're interested in trying out Xcode Cloud, and one of the project and workspace requirements is to use automatic code signing. We do not do this at the moment because it's not compatible with the additional entitlement. My understanding is that we can migrate to automatic code signing if we migrate the additional entitlement to a capability and that to accomplish this our account holder needs to submit a request (see the last section of that page). We submitted the request a little over 3 weeks ago, but so far we haven't heard any updates. We also tried reaching out directly to the email address linked in the com.apple.developer.mail-client docs, but have not heard back. We're now posting here to see if anyone can provide some guidance on whether there are other steps to complete or contacts to whom we should reach out. Thanks!

Hello! I'm experiencing a persistent SwiftCompile warning that I haven't been able to resolve for several months: <unknown>:0: warning: default will never be executed Observations: Appears randomly across different files during the build. No source location or line highlighting is provided. Persists across clean builds and project reopenings. Occurs in both Xcode Cloud and local builds. What I’ve tried: Ensuring all switch statements on enums explicitly handle every case. Removing default cases from fully covered enum switches. Refactoring optional enum handling (e.g., using if let instead of switch). None of these resolved the issue. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Project details: Xcode: 16.2 Swift: 6 iOS Target: 17.0+ UI: SwiftUI-only (no UIKit) Dependencies: SwiftPM

Hello, I've noticed that many people on the forum are experiencing issues enrolling in the Apple Developer Program. I’m facing the same problem—I can't complete my enrollment using my MacBook Pro. When I try to enroll through the Apple Developer app, I get an error saying, "Enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple ID." So, I tried using Safari instead. I submitted all my personal information and credit card details and initiated the order. However, no transaction was processed from my bank account, and I received an email stating that I would be notified when my order and items are ready. When I check the Apple Developer portal, my enrollment status is Pending, and I see a message prompting me to complete the purchase, as if I need to make a new payment. I don’t understand why Apple makes it so complicated just to subscribe to the Developer Program. Why can’t I use my MacBook Pro for enrollment? Why does the Developer portal ask me to complete the purchase even though I already submitted my payment details? Why is the process so confusing? Any help or clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

What I want? I expect to use xcrun devicectl device process launch --device <uuid> <bundle-identifier> --payload-url <URL> to launch my app and pass the specified URL as I usually do in iPhone. What I do? Let's say the app A which I'm developing. I try to use UIApplication.open(:options:completionHandler:) in another app to open the app A with registered schema. And whether app A is cold launch or background resumption, app A can go foreground with receiving URL. If I use xcrun devicectl as above described, app A can still be opened. However, app A can't receive URL which I pass through --payload-url option. That's different from in iOS. BTW: I as well try YouTube with UIApplication.open and xcrun devicectl, the former way work, the latter way not work.

Hi, I have been attempting enroll in Apple Developer program with my organization. As part of the enrollment process, legal authority must be approved by a member of my organization. We have attempted submitting the approvals a couple times with no success. Recently we had an error on screen saying %%USE_I18N_STRING_ERROR%% and Verification Unsuccessful. Would you be able to check the status of my application and if there is anything we need to do for verification? Thank you for your time and help! -Bob

Hi. For over 1.5 months, I am trying to opt in apple developer program for my company. Couple of times, I got informed that I have missing documents like shown below. • Applicant’s employment verification • Applicant’s employee badge or business card • Business documents for COMPANY_NAME I have provided employment verification and business documents, but I don't have any employee badge or business card so instead, I've provided my own id card's photo. Apple keeps sending me same email regarding missing documents. What I am missing here? What should I do if i don't have employee badge or business card? Thank you

Dear Apple Support Team, I am Tianwei Yue. I received your email this morning regarding the immediate termination of our Apple Developer Program License Agreement and Apple Developer Agreement, citing alleged fraudulent behavior and violations of certain terms. We are both surprised and deeply anxious about this decision. Firstly, the email mentioned that if we wish to file an official complaint under the applicable Platform Regulation, we could contact you via “Contact Us”. However, when I logged in with my account and clicked the “Contact Us” link, the system responded with “You’re not eligible to make this request.” We would appreciate guidance on how to properly submit an official complaint or if there is an alternative way to reach out for assistance. Secondly, I would like to emphasize that the “mathos ai” application operated under this account currently has over 3 million active users. Our application has consistently maintained a high user rating of 4.6 and a record of excellent service. The immediate deletion of our account has rendered the service inaccessible to a large number of customers who use Apple products, severely impacting their experience. We believe that this decision does not align with the shared values of customer care that both Apple and we have always upheld. We have always been proactive in handling user accounts, refunds, and payment issues, and we continuously strive to provide high-quality service to our users. Consequently, we are puzzled by the reason for the account suspension and believe that there might be some misunderstanding or miscommunication. We sincerely hope to connect with the relevant Apple personnel to understand the issue in detail and provide any necessary additional information to resolve any concerns and restore our service. Thank you very much for taking the time to read our email. We look forward to your prompt response so that we can resolve this issue and jointly safeguard the interests of our valued customers. Sincerely, Tianwei Yue
