CoreML model cache causes fake hard drive memory usage
Hi, I experiment by creating and compiling a lot of CoreML models and I have the issue that this causes a lot of disk usage, but when I try to delete everything (I search in the disk for possible CoreML cache directories) the disk space is not actually freed up. This is a picture of my disk usage according to what is shown inside of Settings>General>Storage and the Disk Utility app. I am running on macOS 15.7.5

Markup Tool: Support for persistent tool presets (color, stroke, fill settings)
Markup Tool: Support for persistent tool presets (color, stroke, fill settings) I use Markup heavily for work — up to 20 images per day, always with the same settings: red arrow or rectangle, no fill, specific stroke width. The problem has two parts: Part 1 – Markup resets everything: Every time Markup is opened, all settings reset: tool, color, fill, stroke width. This means 3–4 manual steps per image, adding up to 80 unnecessary interactions per day. Part 2 – The default red is unusable: The red in Apple’s color palette is muted and too pale for clear, high-contrast annotations. I have to open the color wheel every single time to manually select a proper, vivid red. The copy/duplicate workaround only helps within one image — as soon as a new photo or screenshot is opened, everything starts over from scratch. Markup has no memory between different images. Switching to a third-party annotation app is not a solution — the entire advantage of Markup is its native integration directly within the Photos app, without switching apps. And Markup cannot be configured in depth through Shortcuts either — color, fill, and stroke width are not controllable there. The attached images: Image 1 shows the entry point in the Photos app. Image 2 shows Markup open with the current color palette. The blue-outlined fields do not indicate colors to be replaced — they mark the position where personally configured tool presets should appear: not individual colors, but fully pre-configured tools with color, stroke width, and fill setting already saved, ready to use with a single tap. My suggestion: Tool presets — configure once, saved permanently, available directly in the Markup toolbar. No need to re-configure color, fill, or stroke width for every new image. iOS already remembers last-used settings in many areas: camera mode, emojis, colors in Notes, Pages, and Keynote. Markup behaves as if it’s being opened for the first time, every time. This inconsistency costs me measurable time every single day.

The callback is not triggered when the app is launched from a terminated state via the notification action
Platform and Version Platform: iOS iOS Version: 17.0+ Development Environment: .NET MAUI (C#, .NET 9) Network Layer: HttpClient with HttpClientHandler Description of the Problem We are facing an issue where HttpClientHandler.ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback is not being invoked when the app is in a terminated (kill) state. In normal app lifecycle states (foreground/background), the callback is triggered as expected and allows us to handle server certificate validation (e.g., for certificate pinning or custom validation logic). However, when the app is in a killed state and is relaunched due to a notification action, the callback does not execute. We would like to understand: Why ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback is not invoked in this scenario Whether this behavior is expected within iOS networking/runtime constraints Any recommended approach or workaround to ensure certificate validation still occurs when handling notification-triggered flows from a terminated state Steps to Reproduce Ensure the app is force-terminated (kill mode) Configure a push notification with category: "INVITE_CATEGORY" Include custom notification action buttons Tap one of the custom actions This triggers app launch and network call using HttpClient Expected Behavior ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback should be invoked during the network request initiated after tapping the notification action, allowing custom certificate validation.

Workarounds for Xcode previews errors: Cannot preview in this file - Failed to Launch
I have started to have issues with SwiftUI previews of iOS apps with projects under the Documents folder. I have experimented that in Xcode 26.4 and I am still seeing it in 26.5. The error is: Cannot preview in this file. Failed to launch xyz.abc.TestApp Looking at the diagnostics, Xcode gets a permission denied error when trying to open /Users/me/Documents/path/to/TestApp/DerivedData/TestApp/Build/Intermediates.noindex/TestApp.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/TestApp.build/Objects-normal/arm64/ContentView.1.preview-thunk-launch.o Error details below. Note that I have set DerivedData folders relative to the projects' roots. Additional information: I get errors on freshly created iOS projects, just trying to preview the default ContentView. Xcode has full disk access set in System Preferences > Privacy & Security. I have cleaned build folders, deleted the simulators, Xcode itself, cleared various caches, restarted and reinstalled Xcode to no avail. Checking Editor > Canvas > Use Legacy Previews Execution did not fix it either. Apps run fine in Simulator. System info: macOS 26.4.1, Xcode 26.5 (17F42), MacBook Pro M1 and Mac Studio M2 Max. I have found two ways to fix the problem while keeping DerivedData relative to the project's root: create the project in some other “unprotected” directory (/Users/me/Developer in my case), or uncheck Editor > Canvas > Automatically Refresh Canvas. Either way makes previews work again. Possibly related: SwiftUI preview not working in Xcode 26 when “Automatically Refresh Canvas” is enabled Xcode 13.2.1 - Simulator works, Preview doesn't Excerpt from diagnostics: | | [Remote] JITError | | | | ================================== | | | | | [Remote] CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile: Could not load object file during preview: /Users/me/Documents/TestApp/DerivedData/TestApp/Build/Intermediates.noindex/TestApp.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/TestApp.build/Objects-normal/arm64/ContentView.1.preview-thunk-launch.o | | | | | | path: /Users/me/Documents/TestApp/DerivedData/TestApp/Build/Intermediates.noindex/TestApp.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/TestApp.build/Objects-normal/arm64/ContentView.1.preview-thunk-launch.o | | | | | | ================================== | | | | | | | [Remote] XOJITError | | | | | | | | XOJITError: '/Users/me/Documents/TestApp/DerivedData/TestApp/Build/Intermediates.noindex/TestApp.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/TestApp.build/Objects-normal/arm64/ContentView.1.preview-thunk-launch.o': Operation not permitted

Protecting sensitive data in memory.
I am developing a library called MemoryCryptor for macOS. Its purpose is to protect sensitive data of the calling process (including launchd daemons), e.g. user passwords and other secrets, from being written to disk or read directly by debuggers or malware. This is a mandatory security requirement from our internal Security Team. On Windows we rely on DPAPI, which stores a per‑process cryptographic key outside the calling process’s address space, ensuring that key material and ciphertext never coexist in the same memory space. I have evaluated the following macOS options, but each presents limitations for our threat model: Secure Enclave (CryptoKit.framework). Keys generated using the Secure Enclave are not bound to the creating app. The dataRepresentation of a PrivateKey resides in the caller’s memory, allowing another process that can read a memory dump on the same machine to decrypt the data. Keychain API. Keys are always loaded into the calling process’s address space before any cryptographic operation, exposing them to memory‑dump attacks. Separate helper via XPC. While this could isolate key material, it requires full control of IPC implementation - plaintext may remain in the implementation's internal buffers. Given these constraints, are there any macOS‑native mechanisms or recommended architectures that allow us to keep cryptographic keys completely out of the calling process’s memory while still performing encryption/decryption on behalf of that process? Any guidance, best‑practice references, or alternative APIs would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance.

Overlay window above all windows, even when moving spaces
Hi! I would like to overlay a macOS application window above all windows, even when moving spaces or moving to a fullscreen app, similar in function to the DropOver app for macOS. What I have tried: Overwriting the default app delegate in SwiftUI and creating the NSWindow myself. Then setting the window.collectionBehavior to [.canJoinAllApplications, .canJoinAllSpaces, .fullScreenAuxiliary] and the window.level to .floating or .statusBar. This works for moving between Spaces, but still does not display above apps in fullscreen mode. I also registered a notification observer for NSWorkspace.activeSpaceDidChangeNotification, where I call window.orderFrontRegardless() to always have my window frontmost. Still not displaying above fullscreen apps. What am I missing to make this work? Best regards

Please Help, Pending Termination Notice After App Stuck in Review
HI, Following up on this thread, the situation has escalated significantly. After my app was stuck in review for nearly 2 months, I received a Pending Termination Notice on my entire developer account citing section 3.2(f), concept or feature switch schemes. All of my apps have been removed from the App Store, including apps that were already live and had not been submitted or modified in any way. The notice states that automation may have been used as part of the review process, and I received the exact same notice for every single app on my account, which suggests this was a blanket automated action rather than a specific finding per app. I have already submitted individual app appeals and a full account reinstatement request through the official channels. I am an independent developer based in France under the Small Business Program and this account represents years of work. I would kindly ask if this can be looked into and escalated to the appropriate team. I am happy to provide any information needed. THANK YOU

App pending review for 8+ days with no feedback – Apple ID 6743547441
Hello Apple Review Team and Community, I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding our app (Apple ID: 6743547441), which has been stuck in the "Pending Review" status since May 5th — now more than 8 days with no updates or feedback. I fully understand that review times can vary and that the queue may currently be experiencing higher-than-usual volume, and I truly appreciate the hard work the review team puts in. I am not looking to escalate — I simply want to make sure everything is in order on our end. Could anyone kindly help confirm whether: There is a specific issue or blocker with this submission that requires our attention Any additional information, documentation, or clarification is needed from our side Or whether the app is simply still awaiting reviewer assignment We are happy to provide any further details or make any necessary adjustments as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for your time and support. We look forward to hearing from you. Best regards

Do interactive LiveActivityIntent buttons keep the Lock Screen awake like Now Playing controls?
I am developing an iOS app using ActivityKit Live Activities with interactive buttons based on LiveActivityIntent. The implementation works correctly: LiveActivityIntent.perform() executes correctly. The Live Activity updates visually. MediaPlayer actions are triggered successfully. The app does not open when tapping the buttons. Repeated taps correctly update the Live Activity state. However, I observed a behavior difference on the Lock Screen: Now Playing controls keep the Lock Screen awake while interacting repeatedly. Apple Stopwatch/Timer controls also keep the Lock Screen awake while interacting. My app’s Live Activity fades to black after around 5–7 seconds even while the user continues tapping the Live Activity buttons. I also tested a third-party timer app with Live Activity buttons and observed the same fade-to-black behavior. I additionally tested: repeated Activity.update(...) calls after each tap; visual state updates after every interaction; multiple consecutive interaction updates. None of these prevented the Lock Screen from dimming/fading to black. So my question is: Is this expected behavior for third-party Live Activities using LiveActivityIntent? Or is there any recommended way to keep the Lock Screen interaction session active while the user is continuously interacting with Live Activity buttons? I am especially interested from an accessibility perspective, because short interaction windows can make repeated Lock Screen interactions more difficult for users with motor impairments or slower interaction patterns.

Apple Developer Program Enrolment
My Apple Developer Program enrolment been pending since April 2026. I have received no response from Apple since around 2 weeks. I have also contacted support last week but received no response from them as well. I had initially submitted by identity/company verification documents 2 weeks back. However, I still kept getting weekly reminders to upload documents. I have now uploaded the documents for the second time as after the first time I did not receive any confirmation for the submission. I am unable to request for call/phone support. My enrollment ID: QDH59Y57T7 My Case ID: 102887512171 Is there anything else I need to provide? Has anyone else encountered this problem? And what should I do? Thank you.

I additionally tested: repeated Activity.update(...) calls after each tap; visual state updates after every interaction; multiple consecutive interaction updates. None of these prevented the Lock Screen from dimming/fading to black. So my question is: Is this expected behavior for third-party Live Activities using LiveActivityIntent? Or is there any recommended way to keep the Lock Screen interaction session active while the user is continuously interacting with Live Activity buttons? I am especially interested from an accessibility perspective, because short interaction windows can make repeated Lock Screen interactions more difficult for users with motor impairments or slower interaction patterns.

Apple Developer Program Enrolment
My Apple Developer Program enrolment been pending since April 2026. I have received no response from Apple since around 2 weeks. I have also contacted support last week but received no response from them as well. I had initially submitted by identity/company verification documents 2 weeks back. However, I still kept getting weekly reminders to upload documents. I have now uploaded the documents for the second time as after the first time I did not receive any confirmation for the submission. I am unable to request for call/phone support. My enrollment ID: QDH59Y57T7 My Case ID: 102887512171 Is there anything else I need to provide? Has anyone else encountered this problem? And what should I do? Thank you.
