Wired data transfer between an app on two iOS/iPadOS devices--Possible or pipe dream?
If two iOS/iPadOS devices have your app opened, is it possible to have the apps send data to each other over a wired connection? E.g. If two iPhone 15s are connected by USB-C, can I get my app in iPhone A to send data to iPhone B and vice-versa? I've been looking around for quite a while now and at this point I just want to know if it's technically feasible.

Which Apple Mac device is sufficient for creating apps via XCODE
Hello, I am looking to purchase a new Mac device after owning my current macbook pro since 2017, sadly this device operates with a intel processing hardware. The new macbook expectations are that the new device is suitable for developing code for apps on xcode. I would like the make mac product to offer great processing capabilities, portability, cost is another factor and somewhat a concern considering I am a college student. To list out the factors into my purchase decision: Reasonable cost Great portability Processing capability via xcode for app development. Adobe applications will be used but I will not be venturing into the realm of 3D rendering at the moment enough Internal storage space is also important to me Which Mac device can you recommend, and why? Really appreciate the input and guidance some of you may be able to provide!

Chicken-egg problem: my Touch ID stopped working, but "Stolen Device Protection" won't let me fix it
Got a chicken-egg problem with my iPhone (SE 2020; 17.3 (21D50).) I turned on Stolen Device Protection, and then, some time later, Touch ID stopped working (IDK why; it just doesn't recognize my thumbs any more.) So I want to fix Touch ID (by deleting and re-adding my existing fingers, or adding a new finger). But I can't change Touch ID, because Stolen Device Protection doesn't trust my PIN; it requires that I authenticate via Touch ID (which doesn't work.) A solution would be temporarily to disable Stolen Device Protection, then fix Touch ID, then re-enable Stolen Device Protection. But Stolen Device Protection won't let me disable it, without me authenticating via Touch ID. Has anyone figured out how to fix this problem?

iPad internal GPS receiver channels
Hi everyone, I'm working for an aircraft operator as an engineer. Our pilots use iPads for their operations and different applications on it. One of the application (Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro X) is using a feature that uses the GPS of the iPad (we use iPad 9th Wifi+Cellular). In order to prove that the application is reliable for operations, we need to prove to the Authorities that the GPS of the iPad can receive more than 12 channels from satellites. Does it exist a way to know approximately how many channels an iPad can receive? Or does a statement exist from Apple? We know that it is capable of, but we need to be able to prove it. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support. Paul

Does the app will be revised on a iPad or a MacOS?
I am developing my app for the Swift Student Challenge 2024. I have made significant progress on it and have been building it on a M1 Mac, where it works perfectly. However, when testing it on some iPads (specifically, the iPad Pro 2018 and iPad Air 5 M1), it did not perform well on these devices. I am wondering if I can specify whether the app should be reviewed on a Mac (M1 or later) or if it will be reviewed on an iPad.

How to make the device communicate with the iPhone 15 APP using the USB-C interface?
Before iPhone 15, the lighting interfaces required communication with external devices through mfi authentication,But there is no evidence to suggest that the USB-C interface needs to add an MFi authentication chip for authentication detection. Is there a way to use USB-C to detect external devices and communicate with each other in the app now, so that I can create my app and communicate with hardware devices

Recording landscape video even if the iphone ist held for vertical video
If an iphone user is recording vertical video it would be a great feature if the iphone records left and right of the visual in the black bar area as well - this eleminates the problem while cutting a movie in landscape format to use poor looking ghost picture in the left and right bars. It would be nice if this feature is switchable in an option by using flags how the video was recorded and played back. Think about it - mainly people all over the world are recording vertical not because its cool, but because this is the best way to hold the device. Any suggestions... Thomas N.- Hamburg/Germany

Crashs in app MyBoby
I have been receiving several rejections from Apple. Our application has been tested by 30 users who are using it normally. Our app was developed in React Native, in the EXPO environment. None of the users reported any crashes when starting the application; they even sent videos demonstrating it. Could you help me understand which crashes are occurring outside the TestFlight environment? Installation link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/ArnUpPLl Username: develop@myboby.net Password: 123456 Thank you!

Printer incompatible / obsolete
My operating system Sonoma 14.3.1 does not allow me to use my Brother colour laser printer. This printer still works beautifully and it's beyond me why I'd have to ditch it and buy another just because there is no driver update (to Sonoma). I've tried wireless (which this printer offers), I've tried with USB, I've tried Airprint. No luck. In researching which printers are best suited for my Mac mini and laptop there doesn't seem to be a concrete answer...except for HP but I'm not fond of being forced to purchase their cartridges (with an HP chip) or the printer will not work. Any other brand suggestions that will be guaranteed to work for the next 5 years?
