Hi developers,
I have a question if it is possible to open in my application not main window but a specific ViewController, when application is installed but not running.
When the application is running in background and I scan QR code, then specific ViewController is opened over SceneDelegate and method 'userActivity'. But this does not work when the application is only installed, but not running.

Is there a way to detect an incoming call with a React Native app? I have a fitness app and would like to pause the workout during the phone call.
Does iOS provide a callback when a notification is manually removed from the notification tray ?
I have been working to implement Apple's Live Caller ID feature, which requires setting up a relay server. Following Apple's guidelines, I submitted a request through the provided link to utilize Apple's relay server. However, it's been three weeks, and I have yet to receive a response. I contacted Apple Support, but they indicated that this is a technical matter beyond their scope.
Has anyone successfully received confirmation from Apple regarding the use of their relay server for Live Caller ID? If so, could you share your experience or any advice on how to proceed?

Thank you.
When using CallKit in my flutter app audio(both mic and speaker) stop working. When not using call kit to answer calls the app work fine. I am using the flutter flutter_callkit_incoming to use callkit and flutter_webrtc for the telephony. Flutter_callkit_incoming has some boilerplate code code include sections to uncomment when using webrtc and I have seen multiple fixes to suggest to make sure the to configure sharedAudioSession before the callkit is sent. Neither of this approaches seemed to have worked.
My app monitors users heart beats and if critical reading is noticed, it auto -dials 911 for emergency and ambulance help.
I was under the impression that auto-dial may not be permitted or possible on the platform.
Can anyone confirm and provide any additional guidance on if it is possible in the newer SDK/API stack or using any 3rd party service ?
Thank you in advance!!

To receive server notifications from the App Store, follow the instructions in Enabling App Store Server Notifications. If your server doesn’t receive any notifications, check your server logs for any incoming web request issues, and
confirm that your server supports the Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 protocol or later. If you implement version 2 of App Store Server Notifications, call the Get Notification History endpoint. If there is an issue sending a notification, the endpoint returns the error the App Store received from your server.
If your issue persists, submit a Feedback Assistant report with the following information:
The bundleId or appAppleId of your app
The date and time your issue occurred
The raw HTTP body of your notification
The affected transactionId(s) if applicable
The version of App Store Server Notifications (i.e., Version 1 or Version 2)
The environment (i.e., Production or Sandbox)
To submit the report, perform these steps:
Log into Feedback Assistant.
Click on the Compose icon to create a new report.
Select the Developer Tools & Resources topic.
In the sheet that appears:
Enter a title for your report.
Select “App Store Server Notifications” from the “Which area are you seeing an issue with?” pop-up menu.
Select “Incorrect/Unexpected Behavior” from the “What type of feedback are you reporting?” pop-up menu.
Enter a description of your issue.
Add the information gathered above to the sheet.
Submit your report.
After filing your report, please respond in your existing Developer Forums post with the Feedback Assistant ID. Use your Feedback Assistant ID to check for updates or resolutions. For more information, see Understanding feedback status.

I have created a configuration profile which basically just turns off notifications for Shortcuts app but I am unable to install it on my iPhone as I am getting the following error “This profile can be installed on a supervised device only” can someone please help me with this? Would also appreciate if you have another way to turn off shortcuts notifications permanently since when I turn it off via screen time it keeps turning itself ON every couple of days.

My question is simple, I do not have much experience in writing swift code, I am only doing it to create a small executable that I can call from my python application which completes Subcription Management.
I was hoping someone with more experience could point out my flaws along with giving me tips on how to verify that the check is working for my applicaiton. Any inight is appreciated, thank you.

Hello Apple Developer Team,
Based on the mandate to update the APNs certificate by February 24, 2025 for certificate-based authentication, a question from the team has been brought up that maybe Apple or the community can help answer. Since our implementation uses token-based authentication, I’m seeking clarification on a couple of points:
1. Does the certificate update affect token-based connections at all?
2. What is the rationale behind updating certificates for certificate-based authentication, and are there any implications or benefits for developers using token-based authentication?
Understanding these details will help us ensure our system remains compliant and optimally configured. Any guidance or further clarification you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
I have been trying to investigate some of the kernel crashes I have noticed on my IOS crash logs. Some of these are in device driver software for the peripheral interfaces.
Given that the driver code executes with kernel privileges, these kind of crashes leave the device vulnerable to remote code injection, with no user interaction required in some cases.
Crash Report from IOS 18.2.1
If Apple can provide the symbol table for IOS 18.2.1 blue tooth driver and source code, I can gladly help investigate this further.
I would like to explore developing apps to integrate with Matter, but it seems that there are limited code examples available.
To start with I would like to create a MacOs or iOS application to control a Matter device like a light bulb. I would as an example just like to know how to turn the light on or off.
Where should I start?
Our app receives real-time GPS and aircraft data from devices via UDP broadcast and/or multicast on a WiFi network created by the device.
We have identified that the iPhone or iPad will just stop receiving UDP broadcast/multicast data for an interval of time. In general, it appears after roughly every 128KB of data is received.
In the attached screenshot from Xcode instruments, you can see the data reception alternating on/off.
We have verified with Wireshark that the data is still flowing during that entire time period. And by tracking bytes received the app ultimately receives about 55% of the bytes, which tracks with the Network graph.
We have used different approaches to the network code, including GCDAsyncUdpSocket, BSD Sockets, and the Network framework. We've tried it on background threads and the main thread. Tested it on iPads and iPhones. All produce the same result. The data is just never reaching the app code.
Any insight on what may be temporarily disabling data reception?
hello
I am testing the use of network extension. When we use dnsproxy to proxy DNS requests,
we will send you a message that the udp pcbcount of your system continues to increase.
For example
for ((i=1; i<=99999; i++));do
echo "Attempt $i:"
dig google.com
done
when the dig command is used continuously,
the dig command will show the following errors when pcbcount reaches a certain number.
isc_socket_bind: address not available
Can you help us determine what the problem might be? thank you
So i am pretty new to Xcode, but i have been using Python and other language for some while. But I am quite new to the game of view and view control. So it may be that i have over complicated this a bit - and it may be that I have some wrong understanding of the dependencies and appcontroller (that i thought would be a good idea). So here we have a main file we call it app.swift, we have a startupmanager.swift, a appcoordinator and a dependeciescontainer. But it may be that this is either a overkill - or that I am doing it wrong.
So my thought was that i had a dependeciecontainer, a appcoordinator for the views and a startupmanager that controll the initialized fetching. I have controlled the memory when i run it - checking if it is higher, lower eg - but it was first when i did my 2 days profile i saw a lot of new errors, like this: Fikser(7291,0x204e516c0) malloc: xzm: failed to initialize deferred reclamation buffer (46). and i also get macro errors, probably from the @Query in my feedview.
So my thought was that a depencecie manager and a startupmanager was a good idea together with a app coordinator.
But maybe I am wrong - maybe this is not a good idea? Or maybe I am doing some things twice? I have added a lot of prints and debugs for checking. But it seems that it starts off to heavy?

I have been working on adding a badge number count to my app, but have run into a really weird edge case. If I have a badge number on my app, delete the application and then re-install it, the badge number still persists on the app icon until I first open the app. I tried looking to see if there is a lifecycle method that is triggered upon uninstalling an app as well as if there is a specific userDefaults attribute to check in order to clear the badge, but I can't find any clear solutions. Does anyone know of a fix to this issue?
I'm using the NEHotspostConfigurationManager to join the WiFi network of a configured accessory.
While this is all nice and dandy, I wonder why I'm still connected to said WiFi when I (force-)close the app. Wouldn't it be more useful to reconnect to the last network before?

The code below using LookAroundPreview works fine on iOS (showing the preview image with a button saying "Look Around" at the top to enter full screen with navigation), but on macOS (15.3) there is no button and no way to navigate the view. Is this a bug or is there something I need to do differently on macOS? I have also tried using AppKit with MKLookAroundViewController and I don't seem get the button to launch full screen there either.
import SwiftUI
import MapKit
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
LookAroundPreviewView(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 37.33182, longitude: -122.03118))
.frame(width: 300, height: 200)
}
}
struct LookAroundPreviewView: View {
let coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D
@State private var scene: MKLookAroundScene?
@State private var errorMessage: String?
var body: some View {
Group {
if scene != nil {
LookAroundPreview(scene: $scene, allowsNavigation: true)
} else if let errorMessage = errorMessage {
Text("Error: \(errorMessage)")
.foregroundColor(.red)
} else {
ProgressView("Loading Look Around Preview...")
}
}
.task {
do {
let request = MKLookAroundSceneRequest(coordinate: coordinate)
let fetchedScene = try await request.scene
scene = fetchedScene
} catch {
errorMessage = error.localizedDescription
print("Error loading Look Around scene: \(error)")
}
}
}
}
Hello everyone,
I would like to use AppleScript to transform a .csv file.
To make things easier to understand, I'm attaching two files:
1- The original file in csv format
2- The file as I'd like it to look after I've run it through the script.
Here are the steps involved
1-Open the file in numbers (Note: the file is located in the download folder).
2-Delete the first 6 lines
3-Delete all font styles and cell colors
4-Combine all cells in the nature of operation column of the same operation belonging to the same date in the first cell of the operation, deleting all spaces in the text is not necessary for each operation.
5- Delete all empty lines.
I hope I've made my request clear.
If any of you have the knowledge to do this, if it can be done at all, I'd be very grateful for their help in writing the script.
Thank you in advance.
