The strange_behaviour.mp4 video attached shows how when running a list of statements to open (startCamera) and close (closeCamera) the camera against a MacBook Pro 2019 using the FaceTime camera, these return their value almost immediately, when in reality the camera is still opening and closing. We believe that there might be a queue for statements to run against the camera and it finishes the awaits when all the statements are inserted in the queue instead of when they are actually solved. We also attached the expected_behaviour.mp4 video where we replicate the same flow but using an external camera instead of the FaceTime camera. In this video, the promises take a bit longer to return but they do once the camera has already been opened and closed the requested amount of times. The project used in the videos is attached as project.tar.xz. We would like to know if the behaviour in strange_behaviour.mp4 is replicable on your side and if there is a way to access the cameras to make it behave like when using an external camera (expected_behaviour.mp4).

We are struggling to launch an app that is specifically for Gynaecologists and Women's health practitioners. Part of the app is available to non members of our association, but there are specific parts of the app that require membership. Membership cannot be purchased via the app as there are some security checks that need to be done. Membership cannot be purchased with personal credit cards, and we do not "sell" the membership on the app. Users can apply for membership, and if they are part of this medical community (they have to supply their medical registration numbers and practice/hospital numbers, they can join. Only then will they be issued an invoice by the accounts department. Accounts are rarely paid for by individuals- they are usually paid by the practice to which the member belongs, or the hospital where they work. We have explained all of this but the reviewer does not seem to read the information

Hello, I'm using an HMSoft Bluetooth module that connects reliably to Android devices, maintaining a stable connection. However, when I try to connect it to my iPhone 12, the connection randomly disconnects after a few minutes (usually around 3 minutes). This issue occurs even when using apps like LightBlue and other BLE-based medical equipment apps, so it doesn't seem related to my app code. Any suggestions on what I can do to prevent these unexpected disconnects? Should I change any specific settings on my iPhone or the module itself?

I’m having an issue with Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) where direct messages sent via the FCM token work perfectly, but notifications from Firebase Messaging Campaigns don’t reach my iOS app. Here’s what I’ve tried and confirmed so far: Setup & What’s Working: Direct Messages via FCM Token: These are received by the app without any issues. Notification Permissions: All necessary permissions are granted on the device. APNs Authentication Key: This is configured in Firebase, and the Firebase Console shows the campaign status as “Completed,” but messages don’t appear on the target device. My Steps: Uploaded the APNs Authentication Key in Firebase: Opened Apple Developer Console > Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles > Keys > Registered a New Key > Checked APNs service. Downloaded the APNs Key and uploaded it to Firebase under Project Settings > Cloud Messaging. Firebase Console Campaign Setup: Notification title and body are configured. Target set to “All Users” (for testing purposes). Message settings: sound enabled, Apple badge enabled, badge count set to 1, expiration set to 4 weeks. Code Setup (relevant parts): Using Firebase for authentication and data storage with Firestore. Configured AppDelegate for Firebase, FCM, and APNs token registration. Implemented UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate methods to show notifications when the app is in the foreground. Observed Behavior: The Firebase Console indicates the campaign is “Completed,” but the messages are not received on the device. There are no errors in the Firebase Console or my Xcode logs when sending the campaign. My AppDelegate is correctly handling the APNs token and FCM token registration. Here’s My Code Setup in AppDelegate: class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate, MessagingDelegate, UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate { func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool { FirebaseApp.configure() Messaging.messaging().delegate = self UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .sound, .badge]) { granted, error in if granted { print("Notification permission granted") } } application.registerForRemoteNotifications() return true } func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) { Messaging.messaging().apnsToken = deviceToken } func messaging(_ messaging: Messaging, didReceiveRegistrationToken fcmToken: String?) { print("FCM Token received: \\(String(describing: fcmToken))") } func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) { completionHandler([.alert, .badge, .sound]) } }

Hi everyone, usually i used to work on my xamarin application from a windows OS using Visual Studio application. When testing IOS apps i used to connect to macbook that my boss has to my windows pc. Nowdays i have a big problem while i try to publish an app. I select Release configuration, rebuild the project and in this case it asks me to login in with my Apple developer account but i always get an errore: 'There is an error while trying to access the auth service is not available' Does anyone know a different way to publish an IOS app? I really do not know what to do. This is my first time trying to publish an IOS app..

Hi, I am a developer developing a software but the vendor product that I’m using is always using the iPhone identifier for the iPhone model that the user is using. For example, it will return iPhone16,2 when the user is using iPhone15ProMax. Is there an official documentation for iPhoneModel and iPhoneIdentifier mapping? Thanks

Urgent Assistance Needed: Issue Logging into Apple Developer Enterprise Account via Visual Studio 2022 - "Authentication service is unavailable." Dear Apple Support Team, I am encountering an issue while attempting to log into my Apple Developer Enterprise account through Visual Studio 2022. The process consistently fails with the error message: "Authentication service is unavailable." Here are the steps I followed: Open Visual Studio 2022. Navigate to Tools -> Options -> Apple Developer Account -> Add Account -> Select Enterprise Account. Attempt to log in using my Apple Developer ID and password. Despite multiple attempts, I continue to face the error: "Authentication service is unavailable." This issue occurs on both Windows and Mac environments, with the same results. However, I am able to log into my Apple Developer account via the browser, and the Apple service status portal shows no outages. As this issue is impacting our ability to deliver to our customers, I kindly request your prompt assistance in resolving this matter. Thank you in advance for your help. I look forward to your quick response. Best regards, KanTime Dev Team Windows Machine Mac Machine

Hi, I noticed that the "View the thread" button recently stopped working in emails of replies from my watched threads. The link's path seems fine but the subdomain is odd / inexistent, since Safari tells me it cannot find the server. Did anybody else notice this issue?

Posted in the wrong subtopic, and I can't figure out how to delete this post.

Is it only me ? I received recently a notification that an answer was "recommended by Apple", with a link to the post. But when going to the post, this recommendation (with small Apple icon) do not show. And the forum scores are not updated. This is not the first time I get problems with forum notifications. I filed a bug report: FB14172207

As the title suggests, Please someone at Apple add this feature on priority. This website is too bright for the eyes to read causing straining issues. Need complete dark mode asap. Thank you!

I'm in trouble in posting a question on SwiftUI forum. I had revised text and tried several times to post it, but it didn't work. There is nothing in my query that is remotely ‘sensitive’. I don’t know what to do next. Thanks in advance for any advice. Regards,

I have recently been added as an apple developer in an organization by our main developer. On my mac, within keychain access, I have two certificates, one under my name and one under the company name. Both are not trusted. I am not sure what steps I need to perform to get those certificates to be trusted. I suspect that maybe my account does not have the privileges required regarding generating trusted certificates despite me being a developer in the organization. I get the error mentioned in the title when trying to deploy my app on a real device for testing which I am convinced is tied to the fact that my certificates on my target machine are not trusted. All the solutions that I have read online have failed me and its quite impossible for me to proceed forward at this point without any assistance.

Please delete this one!

I've recently seen answers to posts that are apparently automatically generated but signed as App Store Connect Engineer. In several cases the answer is misinterpreting the OP. Here is an example: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/758391 The OP was really a developer question. Not related to a consumer feature. Is it really an automatic answer (which would be a bad trend for the forums IMHO)?

I see this message for the first time: It is inserted in the OP (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/757852) but the link leads to nowhere (just the general page of the forum). In … what ?!? So I wonder what is the meaning of the message, its intent and use ? Or is it just a forum bug ? PS: surprisingly, this post appears in Forums general page (https://developer.apple.com/forums/latest), but not in forums feedback (https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/forums-feedback) PS2: it appears, but after all the pinned messages which are older. Really confusing… I posted a bug report on this: Jun 23, 2024 at 9:29 PM – FB14024970

Hear me out, developers at Apple! You've done an amazing job with privacy so far. The introduction of ContactAccess and the Contact Access Button this year is truly an amazing work of art. Well done. However, all the way back to the first iPhone I got in 2007, I wished Apple would make API's available to access the users installed apps (in a privacy way). This would (further) open up apps in the category of App Managers and App Launchers. Back in the early days the trick was to use deep link, but that was also awkward, since you needed to know the deeplink upfront and the apps needed to support it. Not ideal. It also had a side effect that Apple noticed, that evil party's used it to scan your device to know which apps you had installed and create a profile from that. Apple fixed that by using LSApplicationQueriesSchemes. Now you have to tell the App upfront which apps you will be calling (up to 50), or use Universal Link to be freed from this limitation again. Again not ideal. Why not turn it around and let the user decide? User central. Imagine an App Launcher app. There is a button in the launcher app where you as a user can click on to add an app. It calls an api available from Apple to launch a privacy shielded sheet with the apps the user got installed on its device. These are not exposed to the launcher app. When the user clicks on the installed app (or apps) it likes to add, the launcher app will get identifiers to launch the app. That's it. This would be limited access, perhaps the api could also expose full access, so permission could be granted once and the app will get all identifiers available. The choice will be up to the user. One step further, but this would be more nice-to-have, is the ability to access meta data of the app, such as icon, title, last launched, app size, etc. This way App Launchers can make decisions such as putting the most recent launched app in front or App Managers can use this to decide which apps you are not using and can advise to remove them to clean up space. Love to hear everyone's opinion. So let it be the start of the discussion.
