My application always crashes at the same position when I open it on my iPad Air. It doesn't crash in debug mode which makes it very difficult for me to find the issue.

Hello All, I am new to apple ecosystem. We have a xcode project whose code is scattered across different repos. We are trying setup CI/CD for this Xcode project to get build so that we could know build issue. Clone/Update all repos – which I can do via some script Generate xcode projects from sources synced in step 1. This is where we want your help. How should we approach this? What apple suggest for this ? In this step we don't want to use any third part tool (like CMake) to generate Xcode projects. Build targets to know build errors – This we can easily do via xcodebuild command line tool. Please share you input/thought on this. Your input is highly appreciated.

Hello, I got a weird issue with xcodebuild, the tool gives the error that requested device could not be found but I already add it. The issue is solved if I remove the -scheme (and deveriedDataPath. Do you have any idea what is wrong with the parameter or it is the xcodebuild error itself? haiphan@MacMini MetalTest % xcodebuild -project MetalTest.xcodeproj -destination 'platform=macOS,name=Any Mac' -scheme MetalTest Command line invocation: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild -project MetalTest.xcodeproj -destination "platform=macOS,name=Any Mac" -scheme MetalTest 2025-12-05 12:18:25.594 xcodebuild[17581:2982049] Writing error result bundle to /var/folders/x7/rmx20t393rx49t6gyx3fh_vdmz2lm8/T/ResultBundle_2025-05-12_12-18-0025.xcresult xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a device matching the provided destination specifier: { platform:macOS, name:Any Mac } The requested device could not be found because no available devices matched the request.

I want to keep an eye on the App Store Connect release notes to find out when builds created with Xcode 26.2 RC will be accepted. I tried to add https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/release-notes/ to my RSS reeder but the items listed are not the same, it’s the items from the latest news from Apple Developer instead. Can we get an RSS feed please? Seems will be useful to monitor these release notes over time.

After a break using AWS Macs for CI we are willing to give Xcode cloud another go. Unfortunately we are unable to complete the "Grant Access to your Source Code" step. We tried multiple accounts including maintainer, owner and admin. We tried from multiple Macs and versions of macOS. "Connecting Xcode Cloud with your source control provider was incomplete. 503 Service Unavailable. Please ensure that your repository is available and accepting connections."

I would love to partake in beta testing and reporting issues and bugs! Let me know what you got

Xcode 26.2 RC has been out for over 24 hours and it's still not possible to submit apps.

My team is in the process of migrating our app from an individual Apple Developer account to a company account, and we’ve been unable to submit new TestFlight builds during this transition. As a result, a few potential partners are still on an older beta version that contains major bugs we’ve already fixed but can’t push an update for. Is there any way to get in direct contact with the Review Team to help expedite this migration or temporarily restore our ability to upload new builds to TestFlight? Any guidance or escalation path would be greatly appreciated. Will offer monetary reward for those who help!

My Xcode does not show my Recent projects for a while now. I have different projects on my Mac that I open using Xcode and it can't remember the recent ones and never shows it. Does anyone know how to fix that? I've tried to clean caches, restart the Mac, download the Xcode again... MacOs: Tahoe 26.1 Xcode: 26.1.1

Hello, I'm experiencing a significant delay getting the Family Controls entitlement approved for my Shield Configuration Extension, and I'm hoping someone here can help or has experienced something similar. Background: I'm developing an app that uses the Screen Time API with Family Controls. My main app bundle (lukedev.Bloka) was approved for Family Controls (Distribution) and works perfectly. The Problem My Shield Configuration Extension (lukedev.Bloka.Shield) has been stuck waiting for approval for over 2 weeks: Request ID: 6C8LD22UVM Submitted: November 20, 2025 Status: Still "Submitted" Current State: Only shows "Family Controls (Development)" in capabilities What I've Tried ✅ Submitted entitlement request via the proper channels ✅ Contacted Apple Developer Support (case #102762028251) ✅ Verified the main app has full Family Controls approval ✅ Deleted and regenerated all provisioning profiles multiple times ✅ Confirmed the App ID configuration is correct in the Developer Portal The Issue Without Family Controls (Distribution) approval for the Shield extension, I cannot: Test the complete app functionality on physical devices Submit the app to App Store Connect Move forward with development The error I'm getting during provisioning: Provisioning profile failed qualification Profile doesn't include the com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement Questions Has anyone experienced multi-week delays for Shield extension entitlements? Is this normal? Should Shield extensions automatically inherit entitlements from the main app, or do they really require separate approval? The documentation isn't clear on this. Are there any known workarounds to test Shield Configuration Extensions during development while waiting for distribution approval? How can I escalate this request? Developer Support initially told me I already had approval (for the main app) but didn't address the extension's separate bundle ID. Technical Details Xcode: 16.2 Target: iOS 18+ Main App: Family Controls (Distribution) ✅ Approved Shield Extension: Family Controls (Development only) ❌ Stuck Why This Matters The Shield Configuration Extension is a core component of Screen Time API apps - it's not optional. Without it, the app cannot properly display blocking interfaces. The fact that it requires a separate 2+ week approval process (after the main app was already approved) seems like a significant oversight in Apple's review process. Has anyone successfully navigated this situation or found a way to expedite the review? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Luca

Hi, I have been using Claude with Xcode 26.1.1 and it was working fine till a couple of days ago, when it started giving me an error message on every query: "Message from Anthropic: This request would exceed your account's rate limit. Please try again later." I am on the Pro model, and I can use the Claude.ai website just fine. The usage limits on the website show I've used only 11% of the weekly limit, and 4% of the 'current session'. So I'm wondering if this is an Xcode bug / issue, and if there is a workaround. I have restarted Xcode, restarted the Mac, logged out of Anthropic and logged back in, tried Xcode 26.2 beta as well, but no luck.

If I am using reverse-geocode to a state to determine if the State is Texas then how can I test this?

I renewed my membership and payment was successful but account is still showing as expired. Is there a delay?

We registered as a developer company (NGO) more than 50 days ago and it's still under review. We've already sent the documents, we've confirmed by phone, and every time we contact them we receive no information. They just tell us it's under review and there's no deadline for when this review will be completed. On the same day we registered with Apple, we registered with Google and our app has been published on Google for more than 30 days. We have no support or answers. Could someone help us to at least know a deadline for this review?

It would be helpful to be able to upload short videos to the Developer Forums. FB21241023 https://github.com/feedback-assistant/reports/issues/725

I'm looking for a way to make the following possible in Xcode (26.0 or later): I select one or more lines of code. I then enter a hotkey (or select a menu item) that results in adding the line: #ifdef SOME_MACRO before the selection and adding the line: #endif after the selection. Example: Start with the following lines of code: BOOL x = NO; int y = 4; NSString *str = @"Hello"; If I then highlight the int y = 4; line and use the proper hotkey or menu, the result would be: BOOL x = NO; #ifdef SOME_MACRO int y = 4; #endif NSString *str = @"Hello"; Is something like this possible in Xcode? I looked at code snippets but that doesn't seem to support wrapping existing code. I looked at the Xcode Settings under Editor and Shortcuts and didn't see a way to add such a custom shortcut.

There does not seem to be a good area of this forum to post this, so i just post it. I joined the developer program, i made a payment of 99 US dollars, the money was sent from my bank account to Apple.Com, it said on my developers account that it could take up to 48 hours to get things registered and i would be all set to go with the developers account after that. Well, the money is still gone, and 1-2 hours after i made the payment my account now asks me to Join the program, just like before i joined and made the payment. This was two days ago so i sent a message to apple about this, still no answer from them so i dont feel very happy about this, no way in h*** i am going to make a new payment to try to join again when i already did join and did not ever got my money back. Anyone had any similar issues or know what i should do next ?

Hi Apple Developer Community and Support Team, I'm reaching out for advice and potential escalation on a stalled organization enrollment that's blocking our app launch. Here's a quick timeline: Initial enrollment hit issues with D-U-N-S verification (now resolved) and email code delivery, leading to multiple failed attempts and temporary blocks. After unblocking via support, we resubmitted and were directed to higher department review. Submitted all required docs (company formation, passport/ID, etc.) on Wednesday, November 26, 2025. No updates since—it's now Day 6 with zero communication on ETA. This is critically urgent for our business: We have ~4,000 users pre-registered and waiting to download our personal development app (focused on habit-building and goal tracking). Projections show another 10,000 sign-ups in the next two weeks alone, pushing us to 15,000+ if resolved soon. These folks are already investing—our physical planners (promoting the app) are selling via Amazon and our website, http://www.freedommastery.com selling Life planners) and they're expecting seamless iOS access on launch day. Every day of delay risks churn, lost revenue, and momentum in a competitive space. I've followed up via phone/email multiple times, but frontline support can't provide timelines or status. Enrollment ID: [Redact or insert your anonymized ID here for tracking]. Has anyone navigated a similar higher-review holdup? Tips for bumping priority (e.g., additional proof of urgency like waitlist data)? Any rough ETAs from recent org approvals? Grateful for any insights—Apple's ecosystem is key to our growth, and we'd love to get these users onboard ASAP. Thanks in advance!

When I try to validate my app I get the following error: Invalid bundle. Because your app supports Multitasking on iPad, you need to include the LaunchScreen.storyboard launch storyboard file in your com.augmentedReality.virtualTags bundle. Use UlLaunchScreen instead if the app's MinimumOSVersion is 14 or higher and you prefer to configure the launch screen without storyboards. For details, see: https:// developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/ uilaunchstoryboardname (ID: 236f630a-a014-48e8-910a-77d9c0ff6f51) What should I do to fix it?
