I am the Lead iOS Developer for The Incc, an upcoming social networking application. The platform offers subscriptions that grant users access to premium content, primarily digital magazines showcasing diverse cultures, alongside standard social media features and additional unique functionalities. I am exploring two specific use cases for our subscription model. Promo Codes with Split Payments: We plan to collaborate with the our influencers (referred to as Mover Shakers) by providing them with promo codes for users to purchase subscriptions. For such purchases, we aim to implement a revenue split model, allocating 10% to the influencer and the remainder to us after Apple’s fees. Gifting Subscriptions: We also wish to enable users to gift subscriptions to others within the app. I understand that the Apple Subscription Service does not natively support these features. What other options do we have to achieve this that are also not against the Apple's guidelines.

Six months ago I wrote FB14122473, detailing how the built-in CDC (or FTDI) VCP serial port driver is limited to 3 Mbps or less. Thing is, there are some FTDI devices that can do 12 Mbps (maybe more), and I have devices I need to communicate with at 4 Mbps. I had to use the FTDI SDK to be able to communicate with these. I was hoping this post might help draw attention to that bug report.

Subject/Title: Critical SKAdNetwork Attribution Failures (Bug Type: 237, Failure Type: 1201 in ASDErrorDomain) Issue Summary We are encountering repeated SKAdNetwork attribution failures (failureType: 1201 in ASDErrorDomain) for ad impression events processed through the ad network mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork. These failures are causing significant revenue losses, as ad impressions are not being properly attributed to installs. The issue occurs across multiple campaigns and involves both SKAdNetwork API 3.0 and 4.0, suggesting a systemic problem with attribution validation or network communication. This problem is critical as it disrupts advertisers’ ability to track conversions, optimize campaigns, and allocate budgets effectively. Technical Details Key Logs: Below are anonymized samples of the failed SKAdNetwork events: Log Sample 1 (Failure): { "bug_type": "237", "timestamp": "2025-01-07 22:49:15.00 -0500", "os_version": "iPhone OS 18.2.1 (22C161)", "roots_installed": 0, "incident_id": "78523BD9-1F58-4738-B526-8A8A63203214" } { "advertisementStoryId": "3D2E7EBB-1A57-4DF8-9375-2C465F423038", "apiVersion": "3.0", "eventType": "adImpression", "resultType": "finalized", "anonymous": true, "failureType": 1201, "failureDomain": "ASDErrorDomain", "clientEventId": "0F456623-584F-4913-BBD3-C3FD1219D104", "os": "iOS", "topic": "xp_amp_skad_perf", "adType": "app", "adNetworkId": "mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork", "eventTime": 1736305200000, "osBuildNumber": "22C161", "hardwareFamily": "iPhone", "api": "SKAdNetwork" } Log Sample 2 (Failure): { "bug_type": "237", "timestamp": "2025-01-07 22:49:15.00 -0500", "os_version": "iPhone OS 18.2.1 (22C161)", "roots_installed": 0, "incident_id": "0CBF612D-F0D9-449E-A34E-DE2DB92BEC0D" } { "advertisementStoryId": "946E568C-D2C1-478F-BFF3-4996C48F9B39", "apiVersion": "3.0", "eventType": "adImpression", "resultType": "finalized", "anonymous": true, "failureType": 1201, "failureDomain": "ASDErrorDomain", "clientEventId": "1A3D48FB-4452-4FD8-BB25-1195470A53DC", "os": "iOS", "topic": "xp_amp_skad_perf", "adType": "app", "adNetworkId": "mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork", "eventTime": 1736298000000, "osBuildNumber": "22C161", "hardwareFamily": "iPhone", "api": "SKAdNetwork" } Log Sample 3 (Success Example for Comparison): { "bug_type": "237", "timestamp": "2025-01-07 22:49:15.00 -0500", "os_version": "iPhone OS 18.2.1 (22C161)", "roots_installed": 0, "incident_id": "BFEAC86B-8195-4DB0-96FF-2028107256AD" } { "advertisementStoryId": "946E568C-D2C1-478F-BFF3-4996C48F9B39", "apiVersion": "3.0", "eventType": "adImpression", "resultType": "finalized", "anonymous": true, "clientEventId": "F6265488-E0FB-448A-A406-3F7254BCA9D7", "os": "iOS", "topic": "xp_amp_skad_perf", "adType": "app", "adNetworkId": "mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork", "eventTime": 1736294400000, "osBuildNumber": "22C161", "hardwareFamily": "iPhone", "api": "SKAdNetwork" } Failure Details: Failure Type: 1201 Failure Domain: ASDErrorDomain Ad Network ID: mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork API Versions Affected: 3.0, 4.0 Timeframe of Failures: All logs occur within 2025-01-07 22:00:00 UTC to 23:00:00 UTC. Environment: OS Version: iOS 18.2.1 (Build 22C161). Device Type: iPhone (hardwareFamily: iPhone). App Configuration: Includes the ad network ID in the Info.plist under SKAdNetworkItems. Impact Details Financial Loss: Based on failure rates, we estimate $20–$65/day per advertiser for small campaigns and $75–$375/day per advertiser for larger campaigns. If 100 advertisers are affected, daily losses range from $2,000–$37,500. Over a week, losses could exceed $70,000 to $262,500 or more. Operational Impact: Advertisers cannot track installs or optimize campaigns, leading to inefficient ad spending and potential budget reallocation to other networks. Damaged trust between advertisers and the ad network. Reputation Risk: Continued failures harm the credibility of the SKAdNetwork framework, critical in a post-ATT (App Tracking Transparency) ecosystem. Steps to Reproduce Serve an ad impression through the ad network mj797d8u6f.skadnetwork. Monitor SKAdNetwork attribution for that impression. Observe repeated failures (failureType: 1201) despite the resultType: finalized status. Recommendations for Investigation Attribution Timeout: Verify if these failures stem from delayed responses or missed attribution windows. Ad Network Configuration: Confirm the ad network’s integration complies with SKAdNetwork API 3.0 and 4.0 requirements. Infrastructure Review: Investigate potential bottlenecks or failures in Apple’s attribution servers (ASDErrorDomain) or communication delays.

I have an app written in swift. It has multiple pods dependencies installed. When the app is generated with Xcode 15.4 the size of app is ~148Mb and when the same app is generated with Xcode 16.2 the size is ~246MB When I extracted and analysed the app, it was observed that one of the framework installed via pods Dependencies("DocumentReaderCore") was consuming more size(42.9 MB vs 215 MB) the DocumentReaderCore present in the Payload/.app/Frameworks/DocumentReaderCore.framework/DocumentReaderCore was of type linux executable when generated using Xcode 15.4 vs the other was od document type and size was 215MB.

I have written an App with a fileIpmorter modifier. I used TestFlight to pass it to friend for a test. The App works fine until my friend uses the fileImporter function: He can select the file to import (simple csv file), the fileImporter closes without having read out the csv file! I was able to analyze that the do-catch-block within the fileImporter modifier throws an error at the mac of my friend. The App behaves totally different to my Mac: On my Mac it works perfectly: the csv file is read out and the data can be used within the APP. Why does it behave like this? Why does this happen to the mac of my friend but not on mine? More strange: The Apple team is not able to even use the csv-file I passed them in the App Store Connect process: They are not able to select the file in the downloads folder. All three used MAC´s with three different behaviors? - How comes?

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?

Hello, I've been encountering some challenges while working with NWConnectionGroup and NWMulticastGroup for multicast operations on iOS. I have a few doubts and issues that I would like to address: 1. NWMulticastGroup Initialization It seems that when initializing NWMulticastGroup, only one NWEndpoint can be passed, and attempting to pass multiple endpoints results in failure. Can someone confirm if this behavior is correct? 2. Interface Level Control Upon initializing NWConnectionGroup, it appears that packets are received on all interfaces without the ability to control this at the interface level. Is this correct? If not is there a way to configure NWConnectionGroup to receive packets on all interfaces? 3. Sending Behavior During the send operation, it appears that the data is sent through any one of the available interfaces, and there doesn't seem to be an option to configure it to send through all available endpoints. Is there a way to enable sending data through all available endpoints? Any insights, guidance, or solutions to these issues would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone else encountered similar problems or found workarounds for these limitations? Thank you for your assistance and support. Thanks, Harshal

I have a workout app which I am testing on device currently via TestFlight. The generated workout (tennis and indoor) shows in the fitness app with correct HR and duration. However, when I go to my Strava app, it does not show in the list of workouts for importing. (note, activities tracked using the regular tennis mode on the Apple Watch show fine) I have also concurrently reached out to Strava support to see if there's anything they can offer support for. However, does anybody here have any knowledge/experience of the requirement? Or whether this is a limitation of an application deployed via TestFlight? I have a terrible feeling I am chasing ghosts, and it may be a TestFlight limitation for exporting workouts? Thanks

Our macOS app has one in-app purchase (IAP) implemented using StoreKit 1. It works for us and beta testers but App Review get SKErrorDomain Error Code 0 / ASDErrorDomain Code 500 / AMSErrorDomain 305 on first attempt to make the in-app purchase. However, the purchase succeeds at second attempt. We've looked through our entire IAP related code and App Store Connect setup but can’t find the reason. It's a standard implementation: LegacyPaymentQueueObserver for SKPaymentQueue observation. AppDelegate for initiation of payment queue observation on app launch LegacyStoreKitPurchasableProduct for initiating a purchase and listening for the result LegacyStoreKitProductsRequester for how we load the product before user can make in-app purchase. It happens this way: PreviewResultsViewModelcalls loadProducts()on an instance of StoreKitPurchaseManager, which asks an instance of LegacyStoreKitProductsRequesterto requestProducts(forIdentifiers:) Any guidance to resolve this would be appreciated.

I have a driver project where I'm opening and closing a connection to a custom driver. If I do what I think I need to be doing to unmap the memory, when I try to open the service again, it fails. If I skip the step where I do that unmapping, the service opens successfully. If I call unmap() before trying to call openConnection() again, it will fail with a -308 error return code. If I skip that call to unmap(), it works and I'm able to communicate with my device. Here's the code where I open the service: public func openConnection() throws { guard !isOpen else { return } // Open device var connection: io_connect_t = IO_OBJECT_NULL var result = IOServiceOpen(device, mach_task_self_, 0, &connection) if result != kIOReturnSuccess { NSLog("Failed opening device with error: 0x%08x.\n", result); throw NSError.cdc_kernelReturnErrorWithError(result) } defer { IOConnectRelease(connection) } if device == IO_OBJECT_NULL || connection == IO_OBJECT_NULL { throw NSError.cdc_kernelReturnErrorWithError(result) } let receiveDataMappedMemory = ClientDriverMappedMemory(connection: connection, memoryType: MappedMemoryType_ReceiveDataBuffer) try receiveDataMappedMemory.map() let transmitDataMappedMemory = ClientDriverMappedMemory(connection: connection, memoryType: MappedMemoryType_TransmitDataBuffer) try transmitDataMappedMemory.map() // Setup async notification IONotificationPortSetDispatchQueue(dataReceivedPort, dataReceivedQueue) let callbackPort = IONotificationPortGetMachPort(dataReceivedPort) let input = DataStruct(foo: 0, bar: 0) var output = DataStruct(foo: 0, bar: 0) var outputSize = MemoryLayout<DataStruct>.size // Trampoline to C function because I don't quite know how to make this work in Swift result = setupCallback(self, connection, callbackPort, input, &output, &outputSize) if result != kIOReturnSuccess { NSLog("Error registering async callback with driver: \(result)"); throw NSError.cdc_kernelReturnErrorWithError(result) } self.connection = connection self.receivedDataMappedMemory = receiveDataMappedMemory self.transmitDataMappedMemory = transmitDataMappedMemory } map() and unmap() functions: - (BOOL)mapWithError:(NSError **)error { error = error ?: &(NSError * __autoreleasing){ nil }; kern_return_t result = IOConnectMapMemory64(self.connection, self.memoryType, mach_task_self(), &_address, &_size, kIOMapAnywhere); if (result != kIOReturnSuccess) { *error = [NSError cdc_kernelReturnErrorWithError:result]; return NO; } self.mapped = YES; return YES; } - (BOOL)unmapWithError:(NSError **)error { error = error ?: &(NSError * __autoreleasing){ nil }; kern_return_t result = IOConnectUnmapMemory64(self.connection, self.memoryType, mach_task_self(), _address); if (result != kIOReturnSuccess) { *error = [NSError cdc_kernelReturnErrorWithError:result]; return NO; } self.mapped = NO; return YES; } Any insights? What all should I be doing to close the service? Why would the unmapping create this issue or what else could the -308 error be indicated has gone wrong?

Hi, I have requirement in iOS where application needs to run in the background It can be a simple hello world program running in the background. could you shed some light on what is the expected behaviour and is it allowed in iOS.

When user opened my application, it crashed immediately. This is crash log message from firebase. com.apple.CFNetwork.Connection EXC_BAD_ACCESS KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS After restarting iPhone, user can use my application without crash. I cannot reproduce this crash from other device. Here are .ips crash log that I changed to .txt. crashLog-2024-12-26-182447.txt crashLog-2024-12-26-182449.000.txt crashLog-2024-12-26-182535.000.txt crashLog-2024-12-26-182535.txt Do you have any idea to fix this?

I have a SwiftData model where I need to customize behavior based on the value of a property (connectorType). Here’s a simplified version of my model: @Model public final class ConnectorModel { public var connectorType: String ... func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() { ... } } I’d like to implement doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType in a way that allows the behavior to vary depending on connectorType, and I want to follow best practices for scalability and maintainability. I’ve come up with three potential solutions, each with pros and cons, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on which one makes the most sense or if there’s a better approach: **Option 1: Use switch Statements ** func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() { switch connectorType { case "HTTP": // HTTP-specific logic case "WebSocket": // WebSocket-specific logic default: // Fallback logic } } Pros: Simple to implement and keeps the SwiftData model observable by SwiftUI without any additional wrapping. Cons: If more behaviors or methods are added, the code could become messy and harder to maintain. **Option 2: Use a Wrapper with Inheritance around swiftdata model ** @Observable class ParentConnector { var connectorModel: ConnectorModel init(connectorModel: ConnectorModel) { self.connectorModel = connectorModel } func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() { fatalError("Not implemented") } } @Observable class HTTPConnector: ParentConnector { override func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() { // HTTP-specific logic } } Pros: Logic for each connector type is cleanly organized in subclasses, making it easy to extend and maintain. Cons: Requires introducing additional observable classes, which could add unnecessary complexity. **Option 3: Use a @Transient class that customizes behavior ** protocol ConnectorProtocol { func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType(connectorModel: ConnectorModel) } class HTTPConnectorImplementation: ConnectorProtocol { func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType(connectorModel: ConnectorModel) { // HTTP-specific logic } } Then add this to the model: @Model public final class ConnectorModel { public var connectorType: String @Transient public var connectorImplementation: ConnectorProtocol? // Or alternatively from swiftui I could call myModel.connectorImplementation.doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() to avoid this wrapper func doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType() { connectorImplementation?.doSomethingDifferentForEveryConnectorType(connectorModel: self) } } Pros: Decouples model logic from connector-specific behavior. Avoids creating additional observable classes and allows for easy extension. Cons: Requires explicitly passing the model to the protocol implementation, and setup for determining the correct implementation needs to be handled elsewhere. My Questions Which approach aligns best with SwiftData and SwiftUI best practices, especially for scalable and maintainable apps? Are there better alternatives that I haven’t considered? If Option 3 (protocol with dependency injection) is preferred, what’s the best way to a)manage the transient property 2) set the correct implementation and 3) pass reference to swiftdata model? Thanks in advance for your advice!

Please confirm. thank you

I have been struggling to test the IAP response but it is returning empty. I am now in the very beginning of one app, and I don't want to submit the contacts and banking and tax stuff that early. are these necessary for even testing IAP results locally? I think it does not make sense if I have to.
