Fairplay 4.x Certificate Revocation
I created a fairplay.cer file using the below commands : openssl genrsa -out private_key.pem 1024 openssl req -new -key private_key.pem -out request.csr Here, I manually entered the Country, Organization, etc. I was supposed to use the below commands to make the same : openssl genrsa -aes256 -out privatekey.pem 1024 opensslreq-new-sha1-keyprivatekey.pem-outcertreq.csr-subj "/CN=SubjectName /OU=OrganizationalUnit /O=Organization /C=US" Owing to this, I am unable to create a .p12 file through Keychain Access. I thus want to generate a new fairplay.cer file for Fairplay 4.x. I want to revoke the certificate in order to generate a new one (as it has a limit of 1 certificate for Fairplay) Requesting developer support from Apple. Have raised multiple requests over the past 4 days.

Unable to Add Font to Asset Catalog as a Font Set (Appearing as "Data")
Hi Support Team, I am new here. I am unable to add my fonts to the asset catalog there is no option to add new font set when I click the plus sign. When I drag my files in they show up as data. I have a Contents.json in the font folder called BeVietnamProFont.font. Is there something I am doing wrong? Thanks SO much! { "info": { "version": 1, "author": "xcode" }, "properties": {}, "fonts": [ { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Black.ttf", "weight": "black", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-BlackItalic.ttf", "weight": "black", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Bold.ttf", "weight": "bold", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-BoldItalic.ttf", "weight": "bold", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-ExtraBold.ttf", "weight": "heavy", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-ExtraBoldItalic.ttf", "weight": "heavy", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-ExtraLight.ttf", "weight": "ultralight", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-ExtraLightItalic.ttf", "weight": "ultralight", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Light.ttf", "weight": "light", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-LightItalic.ttf", "weight": "light", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Regular.ttf", "weight": "regular", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Italic.ttf", "weight": "regular", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Medium.ttf", "weight": "medium", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-MediumItalic.ttf", "weight": "medium", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-SemiBold.ttf", "weight": "semibold", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-SemiBoldItalic.ttf", "weight": "semibold", "style": "italic" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-Thin.ttf", "weight": "thin", "style": "normal" }, { "filename": "BeVietnamPro-ThinItalic.ttf", "weight": "thin", "style": "italic" } ] } ![]("https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/56835f04-d1c1-468f-808b-9a786562d367" "title=Screenshot 2025-07-13 at 1.05.05 PM.png ;width=539;height=630")

Development and testing on different machines
Hi developers, I'm searching for a kind of way of working to develop my apps on a different machine than testing and final building. For development I have a MacBook Pro m4 and for testing I want to outsource this to a Mac mini m1. I was searching for a solution and also contacted the support, but the answer wasn't really helpful. Any ideas how to setup this configuration to automate this kind of tests? Thanks a lot!

Persistent Sandbox Denials When Building with Capacitor and CocoaPods in Xcode
I am a solo developer building a cross-platform voice assistant app using Capacitor (with HTML, JS) and Xcode for the iOS version. The app is called "Echo Eyes," and it already functions well as a Progressive Web App (PWA). However, the iOS build has been completely blocked due to persistent sandbox permission errors from macOS during the CocoaPods framework embedding phase. This issue has caused severe disruption to my project and personal well-being, and I am writing to formally request assistance in identifying a clear solution. I am not a beginner and have followed all known best practices, forums, and Apple guidance without success. What I’ve Built So Far: Fully working PWA version of the app (voice input, HTML/JS interface) Capacitor initialized with ID: com.echo.eyes.voice Capacitor iOS platform added with CocoaPods App runs fine until Xcode reaches: [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks The Exact Problem: Sandbox: bash(12319) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Shared/projects/Echo_Mobile/ios/App/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-App/Pods-App-frameworks.sh Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code Clarification: This is not an HTML/JS issue. The failure occurs in Xcode long before web assets are embedded into the bundle. The shell script /Pods-App-frameworks.sh cannot be read due to macOS sandbox restrictions. Everything I’ve Tried: Gave Xcode and Terminal Full Disk Access Ran: sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine on the entire Pods directory Added /bin/bash and /bin/sh to Full Disk Access (after confirming the exact shell via $SHELL) Attempted to disable Gatekeeper via Terminal: sudo spctl --master-disable (confirmed not effective without GUI toggle) Tried relocating project to /Users/Shared/projects/ Cleaned build folder, removed derived data, reinstalled pods Debugged shell usage with: echo "▶️ Embedding under shell: $SHELL" in the [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks script Attempted to grant shell access to Documents Folder, Desktop, and more via Files & Folders Current State: Despite following all known and recommended steps, Xcode continues to return the same sandbox error. The shell script that embeds the CocoaPod frameworks is denied permission to read its own contents by macOS. What I Am Asking For: Is this a known issue in current versions of macOS or Xcode regarding sandbox denial for shell execution inside Pods? Is there a recommended method to grant /bin/bash or /bin/sh permission to read and run these scripts under Xcode without compromising system security? Is moving the project outside /Users (e.g. to /Projects) the only real workaround? Are there official Apple workarounds or entitlements available for developers encountering this? Personal Note: This issue has caused significant emotional and physical distress. I’m building this app as a personal healing tool and companion. I’ve poured months of work into this and done everything I can to follow Apple’s development guidelines. I’m not asking for hand-holding — only a clear, respectful response confirming whether this is expected behavior and what can be done to resolve it. Thank you for your time and understanding.

Trouble setting up watches to use TestFlight that are AWFK configured
I am developing a simple watch app and I use my personal watch for development with Xcode. Personal watch is series 10 gps only. I have two other watches that I want to use for testing the app, but not needing them to be connected to Xcode. The test watches have cellular option, and I need a cell plan per watch because the watches need to be standalone, not counting initial setup. To get the standalone cell plan the watches need to be configured using AWFK. Here is what I have tried/current issues. I switch between all three watches on my phone using the watch app. Originally tried to put test watches in developer mode, thinking I would connect to Xcode, developer mode is not available when watch is setup using AWFK. Pushed the watch app to apple connect, setup TestFlight group, added the test users and my phone user, accepted invites TestFlight is installed on my phone, I see the testflight setup for the watch app I set a test watch using watch app on the phone, run install for the test app from TestFlight on the phone, spinner moves for awhile then goes back to Install. I am not able to get the watch app installed on the test watches from the phone. Is what I am attempting to do supported? I haven't found much specific documentation on this. If I pair the test watches as regular watches, set them to developer mode, can I pair them again as AWFK and will developer mode survive the switch? Or is there something really simple that I'm overlooking? Appreciate any help that can be extended.

Game Porting Toolkit brew install issue
Hi, I’m having trouble installing GPT 1.1 on macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 using Xcode Command Line Tools 16.0. I downloaded Evaluation Environment for Windows Games 2.1, mounted the image, and opened the README file. Then, I followed Option 2 to build the environment from scratch: Set up your development and Homebrew environment Ensure you are using Command Line Tools for Xcode 15.1. You can download this older version from: https://developer.apple.com/downloads Note: There is a header file layout change that prevents using newer versions of the macOS SDK. softwareupdate --install-rosetta arch -x86_64 zsh /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" which brew brew tap apple/apple http://github.com/apple/homebrew-apple brew -v install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit At first, I noticed that I needed to use CLT 15.1, which is not supported on later macOS versions (including mine). Even when I tried using 15.3 (which is somehow supported), I received a message stating that I needed CLT v16.0 or higher to install GPT. After following all the steps and waiting for the installation to complete, I got the following error: ==> Installing apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit ==> Staging /Users/tycjanfalana/Library/Caches/Homebrew/downloads/7baed2a6fd34b4a641db7d1ea1e380ccb2f457bb24cd8043c428b6c10ea22932--crossover-sources-22.1.1.tar.gz in /private/tmp/game-porting-toolkit-20250316-15122-yxo3un ==> Patching ==> /private/tmp/game-porting-toolkit-20250316-15122-yxo3un/wine/configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/game-porting-toolkit/1.1 --disable-win16 --disable-tests --without-x --without-pulse --without-dbus --without-inotify --without-alsa --without-capi --without-oss --without-udev --without-krb5 --enable-win64 --with-gnutls --with-freetype --with-gstreamer CC=/usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang CXX=/usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang++ checking build system type... x86_64-apple-darwin24.3.0 checking host system type... x86_64-apple-darwin24.3.0 checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang checking whether the C compiler works... no configure: error: in `/private/tmp/game-porting-toolkit-20250316-15122-yxo3un/wine64-build': configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details ==> Formula Tap: apple/apple Path: /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/apple/homebrew-apple/Formula/game-porting-toolkit.rb ==> Configuration HOMEBREW_VERSION: 4.4.24 ORIGIN: https://github.com/Homebrew/brew HOMEBREW_PREFIX: /usr/local Homebrew Ruby: 3.3.7 => /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/vendor/portable-ruby/3.3.7/bin/ruby CPU: 14-core 64-bit westmere Clang: 16.0.0 build 1600 Git: 2.39.5 => /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/git Curl: 8.7.1 => /usr/bin/curl macOS: 15.3.1-x86_64 CLT: 16.0.0.0.1.1724870825 Xcode: N/A Rosetta 2: true ==> ENV HOMEBREW_CC: clang HOMEBREW_CXX: clang++ CFLAGS: [..] Error: apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit 1.1 did not build Logs: /Users/xyz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/00.options.out /Users/xyz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/01.configure /Users/xyz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/01.configure.cc /Users/xyz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/wine64-build If reporting this issue, please do so to (not Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/homebrew-core): apple/apple In config.log, I found this: configure:4672: checking for gcc configure:4704: result: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang configure:5057: checking for C compiler version configure:5066: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang --version >&5 clang version 8.0.0 Target: x86_64-apple-darwin24.3.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin configure:5077: $? = 0 configure:5066: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang -v >&5 clang version 8.0.0 Target: x86_64-apple-darwin24.3.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin configure:5077: $? = 0 configure:5066: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang -V >&5 clang-8: error: argument to '-V' is missing (expected 1 value) clang-8: error: no input files configure:5077: $? = 1 configure:5066: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang -qversion >&5 clang-8: error: unknown argument '-qversion', did you mean '--version'? clang-8: error: no input files configure:5077: $? = 1 configure:5066: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang -version >&5 clang-8: error: unknown argument '-version', did you mean '--version'? clang-8: error: no input files configure:5077: $? = 1 configure:5097: checking whether the C compiler works configure:5119: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/bin/clang [...] dyld[15547]: Symbol not found: _lto_codegen_debug_options_array Referenced from: <E33DCAC4-3116-3019-8003-432FB3E66FB4> /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/ld Expected in: <43F5C676-DE37-3F0E-93E1-BF793091141E> /usr/local/Cellar/game-porting-toolkit-compiler/0.1/lib/libLTO.dylib clang-8: error: unable to execute command: Abort trap: 6 clang-8: error: linker command failed due to signal (use -v to see invocation) configure:5123: $? = 254 configure:5163: result: no configure: failed program was: | /* confdefs.h */ | #define PACKAGE_NAME "Wine" | #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "wine" | #define PACKAGE_VERSION "7.7" | #define PACKAGE_STRING "Wine 7.7" | #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "" | #define PACKAGE_URL "" | /* end confdefs.h. */ | | int | main (void) | { | | ; | return 0; | } configure:5168: error: in `/private/tmp/game-porting-toolkit-20250316-15122-yxo3un/wine64-build': configure:5170: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log` for more details Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Help Analyzing Crash Logs – Auto Layout Threading Violation, Memory Pressure, CPU Usage
We're facing critical stability issues with a Xamarin-based iOS warehouse management app and need expert validation of our crash log analysis. We’re seeing recurring issues related to: Auto Layout Threading Violations Memory Pressure Terminations CPU Resource Usage Violations These are causing app crashes and performance degradation in production. We've attached representative crash logs to this post. Technical Validation Questions: Do the crash logs point to app-level defects (e.g., threading/memory management), or could user behavior be a contributing factor? Is ~1.8GB memory usage acceptable for enterprise apps on iOS, or does it breach platform best practices? Do the threading violations suggest a fundamental architectural or concurrency design flaw in the codebase? Would you classify these as enterprise-grade stability concerns requiring immediate architectural refactoring? Do the memory logs indicate potential leaks, or are the spikes consistent with expected usage patterns under load? Could resolving the threading violation eliminate or reduce the memory and CPU issues (i.e., a cascading failure)? Are these issues rooted in Xamarin framework limitations, or do they point more toward app-specific implementation problems? Documentation & UX Questions: What Apple-recommended solutions exist for these specific issues? (e.g., memory management, thread safety, layout handling) From your experience, how would these issues manifest for users? (e.g., crashes, slow performance, logout events, unresponsive UI, etc. JetsamEvent-2025-05-27-123434_REDACTED.ips ) WarehouseApp.iOS.cpu_resource-2025-05-30-142737_REDACTED.ips WarehouseApp.iOS-2025-05-27-105134_REDACTED.ips Any insights, analysis, or references would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance!

Testing and Debugging Code Running in the Background
I regularly bump into folks confused by this issue, so I thought I’d collect my thoughts on the topic into a single (hopefully) coherent post. If you have questions or comments, put them in a new thread here on the forums. Feel free to use whatever subtopic and tags that apply to your situation, but make sure to add the Debugging tag so that I see your thread go by. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" Testing and Debugging Code Running in the Background I regularly see questions like this: My background code works just fine in Xcode but fails when I download the app from the App Store. or this: … or fails when I run my app from the Home screen. or this: How do I step through my background code? These suggest a fundamental misunderstanding of how the debugger interacts with iOS’s background execution model. The goal of this post is to explain that misunderstanding so that you can effectively test and debug background code. Note The focus of this post is iOS. The advice here generally applies to any of iOS’s ‘child’ platforms, so iPadOS, tvOS, and so on. However, there will be some platform specific differences, especially on watchOS. This advice here doesn’t apply to macOS. It’s background execution model is completely different than the one used by iOS. Understand the Fundamentals The key point to note here is that the debugger prevents your app from suspending. This has important consequences for iOS’s background execution model. Normally: iOS suspends your app when it’s in the background. Once your app is suspended, it becomes eligible for termination. The most common reason for this is that the system wants to recover memory, but it can happen for various other reasons. For example, the system might terminate a suspended app in order to update it. Under various circumstances your app can continue running after moving to the background. A great example of this is the continued processed task feature, introduced in iOS 26 beta. Alternatively, your app can be resumed or relaunched in the background to perform some task. For example, the region monitor feature of Core Location can resume or relaunch your app in the background when the user enters or leaves a region. If no app needs to be executing, the system can sleep the CPU. None of this happens in the normal way if the debugger is attached to your app, and it’s vital that you take that into account when debugging code that runs in the background. An Example of the Problem For an example of how this can cause problems, imagine an app that uses an URLSession background session. A background session will resume or relaunch your app in the background when specific events happen. This involves two separate code paths: If your app is suspended, the session resumes it in the background. If your app is terminated, it relaunches it in the background. Neither code path behaves normally if the debugger is attached. In the first case, the app never suspends, so the resume case isn’t properly exercised. Rather, your background session acts like it would if your app were in the foreground. Normally this doesn’t cause too many problems, so this isn’t a huge concern. On the other hand, the second case is much more problematic. The debugger prevents your app from suspending, and hence from terminating, and thus you can’t exercise this code path at all. Seek Framework-Specific Advice The above is just an example, and there are likely other things to keep in mind when debugging background code for a specific framework. Consult the documentation for the framework you’re working with to see if it has specific advice. Note For URLSession background sessions, check out Testing Background Session Code. The rest of this post focuses on the general case, offering advice that applies to all frameworks that support background execution. Run Your App Outside of Xcode When debugging background execution, launch your app from the Home screen. For day-to-day development: Run the app from Xcode in the normal way (Product > Run). Stop it. Run it again from the Home screen. Alternatively, install a build from TestFlight. This accurately replicates the App Store install experience. Write Code with Debugging in Mind It’s obvious that, if you run the app without attaching the debugger, you won’t be able to use the debugger to debug it. Rather: Extract the core logic of your code into libraries, and then write extensive unit tests for those libraries. You’ll be able to debug these unit tests with the debugger. Add log points to help debug your integration with the system. Treat your logging as a feature of your product. Carefully consider where to add log points and at what level to log. Check this logging code into your source code repository and ship it — or at least the bulk of it — as part of your final product. This logging will be super helpful when it comes to debugging problems that only show up in the field. My general advice is that you use the system log for these log points. See Your Friend the System Log for lots of advice on that front. One of the great features of the system log is that disabled log points are very cheap. In most cases it’s fine to leave these in your final product. Attach and Detach In some cases it really is helpful to debug with the debugger. One option here is to attach to your running app, debug a specific thing, and then detach from it. Specifically: To attach to a running app, choose Debug > Attach to Process > YourAppName in Xcode. To detach, choose Debug > Detach. Understand Force Quit iOS allows users to remove an app from the multitasking UI. This is commonly known as force quit, but that’s not a particularly accurate term: The multitasking UI doesn’t show apps that are running, it shows apps that have been run by the user. The UI shows recently run apps regardless of whether they’re in the foreground, running in the background, suspended, or terminated. So, removing an app from the UI may not actually quit anything. Removing an app sets a flag that prevents the app from being launched in the background. That flag gets cleared when the user next launches the app manually. Note In some circumstances iOS will not honour this flag. The exact cases where this happens are not documented and have changed over time. Keep these behaviours in mind as you debug your background execution code. For example, imagine you’re trying to test the URLSession background relaunch code path discussed above. If you force quit your app, you’ll never hit this code path because iOS won’t relaunch your app in the background. Rather, add a debug-only button that causes your app to call exit. IMPORTANT This suggestion is for debugging only. Don’t include a Quit button in your final app! This is specifically proscribed by QA1561. Alternatively, if you’re attached to your app with Xcode, simply choose Product > Stop. This is like calling exit; it has no impact on your app’s ability to run in the background. Test With Various Background App Refresh Settings iOS puts users in control of background execution via the options in Settings > General > Background App Refresh. Test how your app performs with the following settings: Background app refresh turned off overall Background app refresh turned on in general but turned off for your app Background app refresh turned on in general and turned on for your app IMPORTANT While these settings are labelled Background App Refresh, they affect subsystems other than background app refresh. Test all of these cases regardless of what specific background execution feature you’re using. Test Realistic User Scenarios In many cases you won’t be able to fully test background execution code at your desk. Rather, install a TestFlight build of your app and then use the device as a normal user would. For example: To test Core Location background execution properly, actual leave your office and move around as a user might. To test background app refresh, use your app regularly during the day and then put your device on charge at night. Testing like this requires two things: Patience Good logging The system log may be sufficient here, but you might need to investigate other logging solutions that are more appropriate for your product. These testing challenges are why it’s critical that you have unit tests to exercise your core logic. It takes a lot of time to run integration tests like this, so you want to focus on integration issues. Before starting your integration tests, make sure that your unit tests have flushed out any bugs in your core logic.

SystemData and IOS Images
Hi, I’m trying to free up space on my computer and have uninstalled Xcode. However, I noticed that many large files remain on the filesystem even after uninstalling it. The largest remaining files (~33 GB) are iOS Simulator images located at: /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes I attempted to delete them using root privileges, but it seems that these system files are mounted as read-only. I’m reaching out to ask for guidance to ensure that these files do not contain anything important for macOS, and that it’s safe to remove them before getting in recovery mode. Thank you very much for your advice!

"No Such Module" When Using Mergable Libraries In a Static XCFramework
I'm attempting to create a proof of concept of a static library, distributed as an XCFramework, which has two local XCFramework dependencies. The reason for this is because I'm working to provide a single statically linked library to a customer, instead of providing them with the static library plus the two dependencies. The Issue With a fairly simple example project, I'm not able to access any code from the static library without the complier throwing a "No such module" error and saying that it cannot find one of the dependent modules. Project Layout I have an example project that has some example targets with basic example code. Example Project on Github Target: FrameworkA Mach-0 Type: Dynamic Build Mergable Library: Yes Skip Install: No Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes Target: FrameworkB Mach-0 Type: Dynamic Build Mergable Library: Yes Skip Install: No Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes XCFrameworks are being generated from these two targets using Apple's recommendations. I've verified that the mergable metadata is present in both framework's Info.plist files. Each exposes a single struct which will return an example String. Finally I have my SDK target: Target: ExampleKit Mach-0 Type: Static Build Mergable Library: No Create Merged Binary: Manual Skip Install: No Build Libraries For Distribution: Yes The two .xcframework files are in the Target's folder structure as well. The "Link Binary With Libraries" build phase includes them and they're Required. Inside of the ExampleKit target, I have a single public struct which has two static properties which return the example strings from FrameworkA and FrameworkB. I then have another script which generates an XCFramework from this target. Expectations Based on Apple's documentation and the "Meet Mergable Libraries" WWDC session I would expect that I could make a simple iOS app, link the ExampleKit.xcframework, import ExampleKit inside of a file, and be able to access the single public struct present in ExampleKit. Unfortunately, all I get is "No such module FrameworkA". I would expect that FrameworkA and FrameworkB would have been merged into ExampleKit? I'm really unsure of where to go from here in debugging this. And more importantly, is this even a possible thing to do?

PDF opening from iOS Unity app in landscape mode instead of portrait
In our Unity App for iOS build, when we opened the PDF from the app, it is automatically opening in landspace mode instead of portrait. In the android and windows apps, we are able to open in the portrait mode. We tried to make the changes in the project settings but it did not change. Any way in which we can acheive this would be helpful for us.

On-demand resource exporting?
I'm a newbie to on-demand resources and I feel like I'm missing something very obvious. I've successfully tagged and set up ODR in my Xcode project, but now I want to upload the assets to my own server so I can retrieve them from within the app, and I can't figure out how to export the files I need. I'm following the ODR Guide and I'm stuck at Step #4, after I've selected my archive in the Archives window it says to "Click the Export button", but this is what I see: As shown in the screenshot, there is no export button visible. I have tried different approaches, including distributing to appstore connect, and doing a local development release. The best I've been able to do is find a .assetpack folder inside the archive package through the finder, but uploading that, or the asset.car inside it, just gives me a "cannot parse response" error from the ODR loading code. I've verified I uploaded those to the correct URL. Can anyone walk me through how to save out the file(s) I need, in a form I can just upload to my server? Thanks, Pete

Xcode Code coverage shows zero; even after 245 successful tests
I have a project inside the project structure. I have around 300 unit tests in the project. I see that for some of the subprojects, the coverage numbers show up correctly, but for other subprojects and the main project, the coverage number shows zero, even though the tests are running successfully. The log I get is: Aggregation tool emitted warnings: warning: /Users/ABC/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/projectABC-hfzmkbdgpiswoxfvvnvhrafaiqyb/Build/ProfileData/A8EEC1FB-1699-4C29-A88C-D3DDA226DBC0/0A416494-A393-4319-AA47-502D72084C9C-43351.profraw: raw profile version mismatch: Profile uses raw profile format version = 8; expected version = 10 PLEASE update this tool to the version in the raw profile, or regenerate the raw profile with the expected version. I only have one Xcode (26.0.1) on my machine. I tried cleaning the derived data, the cleaning project, and rerunning the tests, but it hasn't helped. Please help me get the coverage number back. Thank you.

On Demand Resources does not show an error
I am integrating On Demand Resources into my Unity game. The resources install without any problems if the internet connection is stable: all resources are installed. While testing various scenarios without an internet connection, I encountered the following problem: if I turn off the internet during installation, I don't get any error messages, but if I turn the internet back on, the download no longer continues (and I still don't get an error). If I reopen the application with a stable internet connection, the download will always be at 0%. Please tell me what I am doing wrong. #import "Foundation/Foundation.h" #if ENABLE_IOS_ON_DEMAND_RESOURCES #import "Foundation/NSBundle.h" #endif #include <string.h> struct CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData; typedef void (*CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestCompleteHandler)(struct CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData* handler, const char* error); #if ENABLE_IOS_ON_DEMAND_RESOURCES struct CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData { NSBundleResourceRequest* request; }; extern "C" CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData* CustomOnDemandResourcesCreateRequest(const char* const* tags, int tagCount, CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestCompleteHandler handler) { NSMutableArray* tagArray = [NSMutableArray array]; for (int i = 0; i < tagCount; i++) { const char* tag = tags[i]; if (tag != NULL) { [tagArray addObject:[NSString stringWithUTF8String:tag]]; } } NSSet* tagSet = [NSSet setWithArray:tagArray]; CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData* data = new CustomOnDemandResourcesRequestData(); data->request = [[NSBundleResourceRequest alloc] initWithTags:tagSet]; [data->request beginAccessingResourcesWithCompletionHandler:^(NSError* error) { dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ const char* errorMessage = error ?

Device token for DeviceCheck API
Hi all, I'm trying to integrate Apple’s DeviceCheck API into my Flutter iOS app. I already have everything set up on the backend — the Apple private key, key ID, team ID, and DeviceCheck capability. The backend is generating and signing the JWT correctly and making requests to Apple. However, I’m currently stuck on the frontend (Flutter): 👉 How can I generate the device_token required by the DeviceCheck API (via DCDevice.generateToken) in a Flutter iOS app? I understand that DCDevice.generateToken() must be called from native Swift code. I previously attempted to use a MethodChannel to bridge this in Swift, but would prefer not to write or maintain native Swift code if possible. I've looked for a prebuilt Flutter package to handle this, but nothing exists or is up-to-date on pub.dev. Main Question: Is there any Apple-supported way to generate the device_token for DeviceCheck from a Flutter app without writing Swift code manually? If not, is DCDevice.generateToken() the only possible approach, and must I implement this via Swift and Flutter platform channels? Thanks!
