we’re looking to get some clarification around how the hourly forecasts should be interpreted to ensure we’re using your data in the correct manner. If you could provide the answers to the following questions would be extremely helpful: 1. What do the data points (e.g temperature) in the hourly forecast represent for a future hour? Do they represent the expected average over that future hour or do they represent the forecast for the point in time at the top of the hour? 2. What do those same data points represent in the hourly forecast for an hour which has already begun? e.g. it’s 8:30 and we pull the hourly forecast and the 8:00 hour is still returned. Which of the following would be the correct interpretation for the values returned for the 8:00 hour: The values represent the forecast for the point in time at the top of the 8:00 hour (if this is the case we would expect it to stop updating) The values represent the current forecast i.e. what the weather is right now The values represent the average over the remaining portion of the 8:00 hour The values represent the average over the full 8:00 hour including both the portion which has already elapsed and the portion which is still to come 3. What does the data represent after the hour (i.e. looking at historical hours)? Is it: The last forecast made within the hour? If so, is that point-in-time or average for the hour (as explained above)? The actual weather for that hour (using some non-forecast measure of real weather)? If so, again is that point-in-time at top of hour / point-in-time at end of hour / average over the hour?

Is it possible to integrate a button in an app that displays advertisements to support charities -without offering any direct reward to the user?

Hi Devs, I’ve created an app intent shortcut for our Best Buy app. This shortcut is visible on iOS 17.2 and later. However, I’ve marked it to support iOS 16+ as shown below: import AppIntents @available(iOS 16.0, *) struct LaunchIntent: OpenIntent { why we are not able to see shortcuts for iOS 16?

Hi All, I have created a Push Notification certificate from my Apple Developer account. After downloading the aps.cer file and adding it to my Keychain, the certificate was added successfully, but the private key is missing. Has anyone encountered a similar issue in the past? What could be causing this problem?

I have an iOS app that installs a Content Filter in order to block certain types of content at the network/socket level. The Family Controls framework stipulates that this can only be done successfully on a FamilyControlsMember.child account type (or on a supervised device). Our initial release has been really successful, but I would say that perhaps 75% of our users are .individual (probably over 18). Perhaps a topic for another forum post is to discuss how Apple's policy here doesn't seem to be meeting a real need here for non-minors, but I'll leave that alone for now. The problem we're facing is that as far as I can tell, the only way to determine if someone has the right account type is to initiate an authorization request using AuthorizationCenter.shared.requestAuthorization(for:) and then inspect the error. I think it could really help the usability of the app if we could detect the account type and preemptively show a helpful message if the authorization could not succeed, and recommend some alternatives. But I've looked so far in vain for some way to do this. Is there any api in Family Controls (or elsewhere) that can query the system for this information? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to implement live caller id PIR server in python and I have an issue related to evaluation key config. I don't receive the POST /key request even if I try to install the extension on new device and I had this error in device system logs: error 11:21:30.663022+0200 ciphermld requestData(byKeywords:shardIds:clientConfig:) threw an error: CipherML.CipherMLError.missingSecre t Ke y I think the reason why the evaluation key is not generated is related to this error but I'm not sure. It might be also related to HE params - I tried with the same params as in swift server example with plaintext_modulus=17 and it works, but for plaintext_modulus=65537 on the same device the system doesn't send me the evaluation key. Is there a limitation that restricts the evaluation key generation for some HE params? There is how the entire config object that I retrieve looks like: { "configs": { "Live-C aller-ID-Lookup.

I'm working with the Apple Watch's acceleration data and have referred to the document Identify the coordinate axes of the device. According to this document, the X-axis points to the right side of the watch, the Y-axis points towards the top side, and the Z-axis points towards the user. However, when I place the watch on a flat surface and move it horizontally to the right, I observe that the X-axis acceleration is negative. Similarly, when I move the watch vertically upwards, the Y-axis acceleration also shows a negative value. Is this expected behavior, or am I misunderstanding something about the coordinate system or acceleration readings?

Am showing daily screen-time of a user in my app in Device Activity Report Extension. The only way to get that is to sum up all the activityDuration of apps/categories/domains. But it differs a lot from phone's settings screen-time, why? I have debugged in details and counted manually the time spent on each app and it turned out that the calculation is appearing correctly in my app but Phone settings showing quite less time on top (Day).

Hi folks, We are trying to develop a widget on iPhone control center. We follow the Apple design guideline to export our resource file using custom icon and the button icon always show on debug build. However, when we deploy to TestFlight, under some scenario, such as app upgrade, we found that the icon image disappear occasionally. Anyone could help? Thank you in advance!

I've noticed that very consistently the Weatherkit API times out when I make a large(-ish) number of calls at 7am east coast time. If I make x calls between 7:00:00 and 7:01:00 about half of them time out (as do retries.) If I make 2x the calls between 7:15:00 and 7:16:00 there are close to zero time outs. I've looked at the logs, at the calls per second, etc., and there is no difference between 7 and 7:15. So, I'm not hitting a rate limit. It seems like Weatherkit itself just can't handle the traffic at peak times. Is there any other explanation? Does Apple intend to make sure the API can handle all the traffic they are getting paid to handle?

Hi I am developing a game app with Epic Unreal Engine. I am testing this as testFlight these days. My problem is “launch URL” what a function in Unreal Engine. This is a function that allows user to search the Internet with the entered URL. It worked well before. But not now. I don't know when it did start not working. It's like after the iPhone IOS update or the Xcode update. Mac sequoia 15.1.1 Xcode 16.2 ( Unreal Engine 5.4.4 ) IOS is 18.2. but It didn't work since the just previous version. Any advice can I get?

So what's the point of being able to block unto 50 apps per ManagedSettingStore via store.application.blockedApplications (which works fine) until removing the blocked apps or clearing the store. Where the following occurs if you have a social networking group with more than 9 apps only 9 apps will go back into the group and all the others will go onto the springboard all jumbled if you end up with an empty group then tap into the group, it is removed then during the reset all apps are placed back on to the springboard

Is there a way to increase the frequency of UWB background ranging?

We are planning to use our internal IdP (PingFederate) for authentication of end users in their iOS apps using ASWebAuthenticationSession. Initial tests are successful, but the user is prompted for every login (and logouts) with a consent dialogue box: “AppName” wants to use “internal domain-name” to Sign In This allows the app and website to share information about you. Cancel Continue” Let’s say that our top-level domain is “company.no”, where our IdP is placed at “idp.company.com”. I have seen examples where the Associated domains entitlement points to the idp as a webserver for serving the JSON output AASA file. In this case that would be: authsrv: idp.company.com Anyone with experience implementing this structure with the IdP as webserver for serving the JSON output? Our problem is that trying to use the IdP as webserver for this purpose is that it is very complicated to modify the IdP’s webserver configuration. Also, this modification needs to be re-done every time we need to upgrade the IdP. My question is therefore also related to the options of which webserver to install the AASA file on. Has anyone installed the file on a generic webserver on the toplevel domain like “webserver.company.com” ?

Hi Team, We’re encountering a device-specific issue with our SMS Message Filter extension. The extension works as expected on an iPhone 11 running iOS 16.6, but it does not trigger on an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 16.7. Key Observations: The extension is implemented using ILMessageFilterExtension and calls messageFilterOffline(appGroupIdentifier:for:) from our shared library. The App Group is properly configured and accessible across the app and extension. The extension is enabled under Settings > Messages > Unknown & Spam. There are no crashes or error logs reported on the affected device. The issue is consistently reproducible — it works on one device but not the other. We’re wondering if this could be a regression or a device-specific behavior change introduced in iOS 16.7. Has anyone encountered similar inconsistencies in Message Filter extensions across different iOS versions or device models? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I currently create a AppIntent that contains a custom AppEntity, it shows like this struct GetTimerIntent: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Get Timer" @Parameter(title: "Timer") var timer: TimerEntity func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { .result(value: timerText(timer.entity)) } static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Get time of \(\.$timer)") } func timerText(_ timer: ETimer) -> String { // Implementation Folded } } struct TimerEntity: AppEntity { var entity: ETimer static let defaultQuery: TimerQuery = .init() static var typeDisplayRepresentation: TypeDisplayRepresentation { TypeDisplayRepresentation(name: "Timer") } var id: UUID { entity.identifier } var displayRepresentation: DisplayRepresentation { DisplayRepresentation(title: "\(entity.title)") } } To get the timers, I create a TimerQuery type to fetch them from SwiftData containers. struct TimerQuery: EntityQuery, Sendable { func entities(for identifiers: [UUID]) async throws -> [TimerEntity] { print(identifiers) let context = ModelContext(ModelMigration.sharedContainer) let descriptor = FetchDescriptor<ETimer>( predicate: #Predicate { identifiers.contains($0.identifier) }, sortBy: [.init(\.index)] ) let timers = try context.fetch(descriptor) print(timers.map(\.title)) return timers.map { TimerEntity(entity: $0) } } } Everything looks make sense since I code it. When I'm testing, the console jump No ConnectionContext found for 105553169752832 and I can't get my datas. How can I solve this issue?

My ASA file is located here https://staging.docyt.com/apple-appsite-association It downloads fine. It does not have .json extension and neither does it reside inside the ./well-known folder. Should it work? Because opening the link https://staging.docyt.com/reset-password is not opening the app installed via TestFlight . Installing via XCode however works fine. Please help

Is there a way to distinguish physical mouse/keyboard input from remote control mouse/keyboard input on Mac? Or even better, is there a way to detect if my Mac is being remotely controlled?

This is easy to reproduce，in dark mode, 2 UIViewControllers A and B, A present B. code: class AAA: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() navigationItem.title = "AAA" view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground } override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) { present(UINavigationController(rootViewController: BBB()), animated: true) } } class BBB: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() navigationItem.title = "BBB" view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground } override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) { dismiss(animated: true) } } before present: after present: Obviously, the backgroundColor of the view has changed. I guess it's because view's backgroundColor is the same as the the window, so changed the color to distinguish between the controller and the background, but this brought unexpected changes which is confusing. I want to know how this happened and how I can manually control it
