ForEach and RandomAccessCollection
I'm trying to build a custom FetchRequest that I can use outside a View. I've built the following ObservableFetchRequest class based on this article: https://augmentedcode.io/2023/04/03/nsfetchedresultscontroller-wrapper-for-swiftui-view-models @Observable @MainActor class ObservableFetchRequest<Result: Storable>: NSObject, @preconcurrency NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate { private let controller: NSFetchedResultsController<Result.E> private var results: [Result] = [] init(context: NSManagedObjectContext = .default, predicate: NSPredicate? = Result.E.defaultPredicate(), sortDescriptors: [NSSortDescriptor] = Result.E.sortDescripors) { guard let request = Result.E.fetchRequest() as? NSFetchRequest<Result.E> else { fatalError("Failed to create fetch request for \(Result.self)") } request.predicate = predicate request.sortDescriptors = sortDescriptors controller = NSFetchedResultsController(fetchRequest: request, managedObjectContext: context, sectionNameKeyPath: nil, cacheName: nil) super.init() controller.delegate = self fetch() } private func fetch() { do { try controller.performFetch() refresh() } catch { fatalError("Failed to fetch results for \(Result.self)") } } private func refresh() { results = controller.fetchedObjects?.map { Result($0) } ?? [] } var predicate: NSPredicate? { get { controller.fetchRequest.predicate } set { controller.fetchRequest.predicate = newValue fetch() } } var sortDescriptors: [NSSortDescriptor] { get { controller.fetchRequest.sortDescriptors ?? [] } set { controller.fetchRequest.sortDescriptors = newValue.isEmpty ? nil : newValue fetch() } } internal func controllerDidChangeContent(_ controller: NSFetchedResultsController<any NSFetchRequestResult>) { refresh() } } Till this point, everything works fine. Then, I conformed my class to RandomAccessCollection, so I could use in a ForEach loop without having to access the results property. extension ObservableFetchRequest: @preconcurrency RandomAccessCollection, @preconcurrency MutableCollection { subscript(position: Index) -> Result { get { results[position] } set { results[position] = newValue } } public var endIndex: Index { results.endIndex } public var indices: Indices { results.indices } public var startIndex: Index { results.startIndex } public func distance(from start: Index, to end: Index) -> Int { results.distance(from: start, to: end) } public func index(_ i: Index, offsetBy distance: Int) -> Index { results.index(i, offsetBy: distance) } public func index(_ i: Index, offsetBy distance: Int, limitedBy limit: Index) -> Index? { results.index(i, offsetBy: distance, limitedBy: limit) } public func index(after i: Index) -> Index { results.index(after: i) } public func index(before i: Index) -> Index { results.index(before: i) } public typealias Element = Result public typealias Index = Int } The issue is, when I update the ObservableFetchRequest predicate while searching, it causes a Index out of range error in the Collection subscript because the ForEach loop (or a List loop) access a old version of the array when the item property is optional. List(request, selection: $selection) { item in VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(item.content) if let information = item.information { // here's the issue, if I leave this out, everything works Text(information) .font(.callout) .foregroundStyle(.secondary) } } .tag(item.id) .contextMenu { if Item.self is Client.Type { Button("Editar") { openWindow(ClientView(client: item as! Client), id: item.id!) } } } } Is it some RandomAccessCollection issue or a SwiftUI bug?

Urgent: Reports of Duplicate Charges via AlipayHK on Apple Pay
We’ve recently observed an escalating number of complaints from AlipayHK users regarding duplicate charges when completing transactions via Apple Pay. While no similar issues have been reported by users of other credit card providers integrated with Apple Pay, the problem appears isolated to AlipayHK transactions. Key Details: Multiple users confirm being charged twice for single transactions. Complaints are increasing in frequency, indicating a potential systemic issue. No overlapping reports from non-AlipayHK payment methods at this time. To safeguard customer trust and ensure seamless payment experiences, we kindly request Apple’s support in: Investigating whether the root cause stems from Apple Pay’s transaction handling. Collaborating with AlipayHK (if necessary) to resolve the issue promptly. Providing guidance on interim measures to prevent further duplicate charges. Could Apple confirm if this is a known issue and share a timeline for resolution? We’re eager to assist in any way possible to mitigate impact on users. Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter.

defaultIsolation option and Core Data
When creating a new project in Xcode 26, the default for defaultIsolation is MainActor. Core Data creates classes for each entity using code gen, but now those classes are also internally marked as MainActor, which causes issues when accessing managed object from a background thread like this. Is there a way to fix this warning or should Xcode actually mark these auto generated classes as nonisolated to make this better? Filed as FB13840800. nonisolated struct BackgroundDataHandler { @concurrent func saveItem() async throws { let context = await PersistenceController.shared.container.newBackgroundContext() try await context.perform { let newGame = Item(context: context) newGame.timestamp = Date.now // Main actor-isolated property 'timestamp' can not be mutated from a nonisolated context; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode try context.save() } } } Turning code gen off inside the model and creating it manually, with the nonisolated keyword, gets rid of the warning and still works fine. So I guess the auto generated class could adopt this as well? public import Foundation public import CoreData public typealias ItemCoreDataClassSet = NSSet @objc(Item) nonisolated public class Item: NSManagedObject { }

iOS 18 (22G5054d) Developer Beta broke Apple CarPlay
My 2025 Hyundai Tucson SEL was doing fine with Apple CarPlay until last night's update, now it refuses to see/use CarPlay, both by bluetooth and by cable. Mind you, was working perfectly fine yesterday, it still sees my wife's phone via bluetooth and my son's phone via cable. The Tucson's last over-the-air update was 5/23/25, as in, nothing has changed with the Tucson, or my other family phones, which leaves only one variable that changed, my iPhone updating to the latest iOS developer beta.

Securely transmit UIImage to app running on desktop website
Hello everyone, I'm trying to figure out how to transmit a UIImage (png or tiff) securely to an application running in my desktop browser (Mac or PC). The desktop application and iOS app would potentially be running on the same local network (iOS hotspot or something) or have no internet connection at all. I'm trying to securely send over an image that the running desktop app could ingest. I was thinking something like a local server securely accepting image data from an iPhone. Any suggestions ideas or where to look for more info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your help.

Best current approach to detecting legacy paid app download (without relying on deprecated APIs)?
I’m trying to determine the most appropriate modern method for detecting whether a user originally downloaded a paid app (prior to transitioning the app to freemium/IAP-based access). Historically, this was done by checking for a valid App Store receipt and using SKReceiptRefreshRequest to ensure a fresh one was available. However, SKReceiptRefreshRequest and many related aspects of StoreKit receipt handling are now deprecated in iOS 17+. The current Apple documentation on receipt validation still refers to SKReceiptRefreshRequest, which makes things unclear. With so many deprecations and the push toward StoreKit 2, what’s the recommended path to: Check for a valid App Store receipt Confirm that the app was originally purchased (as a paid app, not via IAP) Persist this info to exempt the user from paywalling the app in the future I don’t need to validate purchases of IAPs — just to detect a legacy paid app download. Any guidance on best practice for this use case, preferably using non-deprecated APIs (StoreKit 2 or otherwise), would be appreciated.

The possibility of certificates renewal on "master account" without creating new merchant identity certificate and key stores.
Hello! We use Apple's "master account" scheme to register new clients trough API due to the fact that the number of merchant IDs in a developer account cannot exceed 100 records. It's been almost a year since we successfully used the master account ( ex. "merchant.com.xxx") and register clients via Postman. At the moment, the certificates for the master merchant ID start to expire on July 11 which will affect all customers which is under Master ID. We know that when updating certificates at the identifier level(our master id), new universal identity certificate files that we use to send to the merchants (merchant_id.pem, privkey.key) will be generated for authentication on the merchant side, as well as a new keystore. Since many of our clients are integrated with current files and keystores and have live traffic, we would like to know—is it possible to update certificates on the master account without changing the keystores and certificate identities? The impossibility of this will entail a large gap when switching to new certificates. Thanks in advance for your answer.

Shortcut automation to make PDF
Hi! I am using the Automations in shortcuts in macOS 26 dev beta 1 and I have all my shortcuts working except this one. Why?(photo included). All the others are very similar except they do other things not make pdf. They work. Why does this one not. I tried changing the extension to .doc, or .docx instead of doc and docx I tried using if name ends in .docx I tried file filtering nothing. Any ideas? Thanks!

Writing unit tests for AppIntent with a @AppDependency declared
I am trying to write a unit test for an AppIntent and override the AppDependencyManager so I can inject dependencies for the purposes of testing. When I run a test, the app crashes with: AppIntents/AppDependencyManager.swift:120: Fatal error: AppDependency of type Int.Type was not initialized prior to access. Dependency values can only be accessed inside of the intent perform flow and within types conforming to _SupportsAppDependencies unless the value of the dependency is manually set prior to access. App Intent: import AppIntents struct TestAppIntent: AppIntent { @AppDependency var count: Int static var title: LocalizedStringResource { "Test App Intent "} func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { print("\(count)") return .result() } } extension TestAppIntent { init(dependencyManager: AppDependencyManager) { _count = AppDependency(manager: dependencyManager) } } Unit Test import Testing import AppIntents @testable import AppIntentTesting struct TestAppIntentTests { @Test("test") func test() async throws { let dependencyManager = AppDependencyManager() dependencyManager.add(dependency: 5) let appIntent = TestAppIntent(dependencyManager: dependencyManager) _ = try await appIntent.perform() } }

watchOS workout app not reachable from iOS (sometimes)
In general my workout app is reachable from the iPhone when running a workout, even if in the background. However if the watch app restarts (due to crash or being closed via the dock) via handleActiveWorkoutRecovery then it is only reachable when in the foreground, even though a workout is running. Is this expected / desired behaviour? Is the app given a tighter sandbox (having it's "background privileges" reduced) because of the earlier crash? This behaviour occasionally happens without a crash (or being closed via the dock) - all of a sudden it is no longer reachable via the iPhone. It feels like the app is being "sandboxed" like in #1 but there is no crash or any other kind of log indicating any issue. Generally the only remedy is to stop the workout and restart the app. My question is - is this expected? Is there some condition that causes the watchOS to sandbox the app? Or is this a Watch Connectivity bug?

Data Race in Widgets?
I've turned on Swift 6 language mode and noticed that during runtime Xcode gives this warning for a new widget (iOS 17.2): warning: data race detected: @MainActor function at TestWidgetExtension/TestWidget.swift:240 was not called on the main thread struct TestWidget: Widget { let kind: String = "TestWidget" var body: some WidgetConfiguration { AppIntentConfiguration( kind: kind, intent: ConfigurationAppIntent.self, provider: Provider() ) { entry in // LINE 240 TestWidgetEntryView(entry: entry) .containerBackground(Color.white, for: .widget) } } } Is there any way to solve this on my side? Thank you!

Tilde, back tick and Pipe are missing from keyboard
I opened a terminal window this morning and couldn't cd to /home. When I type a tilde, I get a paragraph symbol. Yesterday, my external keyboard could type a Pipe symbol, no such luck today. I ended up having to use hidutil to remap my keyboard and run keystrokes through terminal to restore what worked yesterday. When I look at the available English keyboards, they're all showing a paragraph symbol above the Tab key. Has anyone else run into this sudden keyboard change?

MapKit with MKTileOverlay Crashes After a Time
I'm building a weather map that shows the rain on the map. I'm able to retrieve PNG images that are used as tiles to put onto the map. I then reload all the tiles on the map with each timeframe (tile set for every 10 minutes). I'm able to get the map loaded up and I'm able to place the tiles and reload the data for each time slot. I preload all the PNG data needed for the tiles and store that NSData for them in memory so that they are quick for loading and showing on the map. I have timer's set to reload the overlay with the next set of tiles for each time slot. Giving the view of a moving precipitation map over time (just like you'd see on any weather map.) I have 12 time slots (timestamps) showing every 10 minutes for the past 2 hours. I have it showing each in sequence and then repeating. Over time I get a crash with this error as a Thread 1: signal SIGABRT. Failed to acquire drawable, rendering to temporary texture validateRenderPassDescriptor:782: failed assertion `RenderPass Descriptor Validation MTLRenderPassAttachmentDescriptor MTLStoreActionMultisampleResolve store action at attachment 0 requires resolve texture ' validateRenderPassDescriptor:782: failed assertion `RenderPass Descriptor Validation MTLRenderPassAttachmentDescriptor MTLStoreActionMultisampleResolve store action at attachment 0 requires resolve texture ' Through some searching I've discovered that this seems to be console output from Metal. I assume Metal is used for MapKit to render the overlay tiles? I'm using the same custom overlay where I set the timestamp on it and then tell it to reload. I also reuse the same MKOverlayRenderer as shown here... - (MKOverlayRenderer*)mapView:(MKMapView*)mapView rendererForOverlay:(id<MKOverlay>)overlay { if ([overlay isKindOfClass:[MKTileOverlay class]]) { if (!self.rainRenderer) { self.rainRenderer = [[MKTileOverlayRenderer alloc] initWithTileOverlay:overlay]; self.rainRenderer.alpha = 0.5; } return self.rainRenderer; } return nil; } And here's the function that reloads the overlay... - (void) updateRainFrame { self.currentFrameIndex = (self.currentFrameIndex + 1) % self.timestamps.count; if ((self.currentFrameIndex >= 0) && (self.timestamps.count > self.currentFrameIndex)) { NSLog (@"self.currentFrameIndex = %lu", self.currentFrameIndex); NSString *timestamp = self.timestamps[self.currentFrameIndex]; [self.overlay setTimestamp:timestamp]; [self.rainRenderer reloadData]; } } The time it takes to crash seems arbitrary. Sometimes it's very quick. Less than a minute. But usually it's several minutes. 10 or 20 minutes or more. Feels like some sort of race condition that's occurring. Perhaps ARC is not able to release the images for the tiles quick enough for each overlay reload? That's a wild guess but I think it's something more deeper in Metal as I feel I would see other errors related to memory availability. Some of my searches point to something about MSAA needing to be turned off in Metal to resolve this. However I have no idea how I would do that through MapKit. Any suggestions? Let me know if there is somehow a way to capture more from the crash to give more insight.

CarPlay: no banner or sound for APNs while connected, works on phone (iOS 18.0, UNNotificationCategoryOptions.allowInCarPlay)
Hi everyone! I’m integrating push notifications for a taxi-driver app and ran into a blocking CarPlay issue.

Generally the only remedy is to stop the workout and restart the app. My question is - is this expected? Is there some condition that causes the watchOS to sandbox the app? Or is this a Watch Connectivity bug?

Data Race in Widgets?
I've turned on Swift 6 language mode and noticed that during runtime Xcode gives this warning for a new widget (iOS 17.2): warning: data race detected: @MainActor function at TestWidgetExtension/TestWidget.swift:240 was not called on the main thread struct TestWidget: Widget { let kind: String = "TestWidget" var body: some WidgetConfiguration { AppIntentConfiguration( kind: kind, intent: ConfigurationAppIntent.self, provider: Provider() ) { entry in // LINE 240 TestWidgetEntryView(entry: entry) .containerBackground(Color.white, for: .widget) } } } Is there any way to solve this on my side? Thank you!

Tilde, back tick and Pipe are missing from keyboard
I opened a terminal window this morning and couldn't cd to /home. When I type a tilde, I get a paragraph symbol. Yesterday, my external keyboard could type a Pipe symbol, no such luck today. I ended up having to use hidutil to remap my keyboard and run keystrokes through terminal to restore what worked yesterday. When I look at the available English keyboards, they're all showing a paragraph symbol above the Tab key. Has anyone else run into this sudden keyboard change?

MapKit with MKTileOverlay Crashes After a Time
I'm building a weather map that shows the rain on the map. I'm able to retrieve PNG images that are used as tiles to put onto the map. I then reload all the tiles on the map with each timeframe (tile set for every 10 minutes). I'm able to get the map loaded up and I'm able to place the tiles and reload the data for each time slot. I preload all the PNG data needed for the tiles and store that NSData for them in memory so that they are quick for loading and showing on the map. I have timer's set to reload the overlay with the next set of tiles for each time slot. Giving the view of a moving precipitation map over time (just like you'd see on any weather map.) I have 12 time slots (timestamps) showing every 10 minutes for the past 2 hours. I have it showing each in sequence and then repeating. Over time I get a crash with this error as a Thread 1: signal SIGABRT. Failed to acquire drawable, rendering to temporary texture validateRenderPassDescriptor:782: failed assertion `RenderPass Descriptor Validation MTLRenderPassAttachmentDescriptor MTLStoreActionMultisampleResolve store action at attachment 0 requires resolve texture ' validateRenderPassDescriptor:782: failed assertion `RenderPass Descriptor Validation MTLRenderPassAttachmentDescriptor MTLStoreActionMultisampleResolve store action at attachment 0 requires resolve texture ' Through some searching I've discovered that this seems to be console output from Metal. I assume Metal is used for MapKit to render the overlay tiles? I'm using the same custom overlay where I set the timestamp on it and then tell it to reload. I also reuse the same MKOverlayRenderer as shown here... - (MKOverlayRenderer*)mapView:(MKMapView*)mapView rendererForOverlay:(id<MKOverlay>)overlay { if ([overlay isKindOfClass:[MKTileOverlay class]]) { if (!self.rainRenderer) { self.rainRenderer = [[MKTileOverlayRenderer alloc] initWithTileOverlay:overlay]; self.rainRenderer.alpha = 0.5; } return self.rainRenderer; } return nil; } And here's the function that reloads the overlay... - (void) updateRainFrame { self.currentFrameIndex = (self.currentFrameIndex + 1) % self.timestamps.count; if ((self.currentFrameIndex >= 0) && (self.timestamps.count > self.currentFrameIndex)) { NSLog (@"self.currentFrameIndex = %lu", self.currentFrameIndex); NSString *timestamp = self.timestamps[self.currentFrameIndex]; [self.overlay setTimestamp:timestamp]; [self.rainRenderer reloadData]; } } The time it takes to crash seems arbitrary. Sometimes it's very quick. Less than a minute. But usually it's several minutes. 10 or 20 minutes or more. Feels like some sort of race condition that's occurring. Perhaps ARC is not able to release the images for the tiles quick enough for each overlay reload? That's a wild guess but I think it's something more deeper in Metal as I feel I would see other errors related to memory availability. Some of my searches point to something about MSAA needing to be turned off in Metal to resolve this. However I have no idea how I would do that through MapKit. Any suggestions? Let me know if there is somehow a way to capture more from the crash to give more insight.

CarPlay: no banner or sound for APNs while connected, works on phone (iOS 18.0, UNNotificationCategoryOptions.allowInCarPlay)
Hi everyone! I’m integrating push notifications for a taxi-driver app and ran into a blocking CarPlay issue. When the iPhone is connected to CarPlay (wired or wireless), the push arrives on the phone without any sound and nothing is shown or announced on the CarPlay screen. If I unplug CarPlay, the same push plays the default sound and shows a normal banner on the lock screen, so the payload itself looks valid. Environment iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 18.0 CarPlay head-unit: Xcode 16.2 CarPlay Simulator App built with Flutter 3.22 + firebase_messaging: ^15.2.5 Deployment target: iOS 14.0 Xcode capabilities enabled: Push Notifications, Time-Sensitive Notifications App settings on the device: Allow Notifications -› Sounds ON, Show in CarPlay ON Siri › Announce Notifications › CarPlay: master toggle ON + my app added to the allowed list Driving Focus = Off (same result if it’s On) Native setup in AppDelegate.swift UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization( options: [.alert, .sound, .badge, .carPlay] ) { _,_ in } let carPlayCategory = UNNotificationCategory( identifier: "CARPLAY_ORDER", actions: [], intentIdentifiers: [], options: [.allowInCarPlay] ) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().setNotificationCategories([carPlayCategory]) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self application.registerForRemoteNotifications() APNs payload that I send via FCM { "aps": { "alert": { "title": "New test order", "body": "Location info test" }, "sound": "default", "category": "CARPLAY_ORDER", "interruption-level": "time-sensitive", "relevance-score": 1 } } What could be the problem? Please help me solve the error
