Apple developer support could not answer my question which is the following: How are Matter developers supposed to test accessory pairing, accessory communication and accessory discovery if the Console logs provided by Apple (iOS, MacOS, iPadOS) are encrypted, incomplete or straight up non-existent. Current issue is mDNS-SD discovery, pairing and PAKE requests initialisation. Impossible to figure out why X or Y stopped on the Apple Device. Chip-tool (provided by PROJECT-CHIP) acts 100% differently than iOS (Home) or iPadOS(Home). Thank you

Hello, I'm facing a weird issue when application bundle is corrupted during installation. The corruption always look the same - a certain sequence of bytes is erased (zeroed) in the file at multiple places, which obviously breaks the bundle signature. It's a pkg built with productbuild, containing three component packages, up until recently no issue occurred. Everything is correctly signed and notarized and I don't do anything special in preinstall or postinstall scripts but I run gktool scan which reports "Scan completed, but failed because the software has been altered" which makes me believe that bundle is corrupted during installation or decompression. I'm using --compression latest for the bundle's component package. I don't have a reliable repro but I see it happen a lot to our customers. I was suspecting a deployment tool or "security software" but I've seen the issue for manually installed packages too. It seems it happens only on Sonoma, but that may be related to fact most users are on latest macOS. Is there any known issue with installer which could lead to bundle being corrupted this way? Did anyone faced anything similar?

Until Xcode 16 xcresulttool had a 'formatDescription' subcommand and/or --format flag that output a schema for what to expect from 'get object' subcommands. With Xcode 16 all of the old format and utilities are apparently deprecated, and require a --legacy flag be passed to use the deprecated utilities and format. There are new utilities like 'xcrun xcresulttool get test-results --path ' however, no format us published as far as I can tell. If we are going to move forward with these new utilities we need a schema published so that we can reasonably track deltas as it evolves and so that we have the object of generating model objects from this schema. Any insight?

Developers mode not located in privacy and security or anywhere else in iPhone settings. I have iPhone 13 , updated to beta public iOS 18 and developers mode under iOS 18.

When I was compiling with MacOSX.SDK, these error occurred /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/hfs/hfs_format.h:796:20: error: unknown type name 'uuid_string_t'; did you mean 'io_string_t'? char reserved[JIB_RESERVED_SIZE]; ^ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/hfs/hfs_format.h:787:61: note: expanded from macro 'JIB_RESERVED_SIZE' #define JIB_RESERVED_SIZE ((32*sizeof(u_int32_t)) - sizeof(uuid_string_t) - 48) ^ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/device/device_types.h:89:33: note: 'io_string_t' declared here typedef char io_string_t[512]; I searched on the Internet and found the similar problem, it seems that there is something wrong with uuid.h. Actually, I do have this head file in my project directory. Anybody encountered with the same problem ? How to solve this problem?

We have universal links which takes user to various journeys in the app when user clicks on the link, however it works only when app is installed. If app is not installed link takes user to the App Store and when the user installs and opens the app, the link does not launch the intended deeplink flow. Is there any way we can pass context to app store and receive it when user opens the app? Android provides similar functionality using install referral lib. Checking if similar is possible in iOS.

I'm developing an app for Apple Vision Pro. The asset directory in my project is small: $ du -sh Assets.xcassets 292K Assets.xcassets However, after build assets in the resulting bundle are 15MB! $ du -sh MyApp.app/Assets.car 15M MyApp.app/Assets.car That's two orders of magnitude! Considering that binaries of the app are a couple of MBs, the app bundle is basically all assets! WTF?! It seems somewhere in build process several very large assets are generated: > assetutil --info Assets.car | grep "SizeOnDisk" | sed 's/^[[:space:]]*"SizeOnDisk" : //' | sed 's/,$//' | sort -rn | head 2860982 2860982 2859215 2749277 2658939 1049666 163374 163374 136454 79949 The top one has this in the output of assetutil: {{ "MipLevel" : 0, "RenditionName" : "avp_app_icon_frame.png", "SHA1Digest" : "1F511AC99BA7EE4B7735FDC84F64BA1CDCB044734ED7D3A4AEC1F07AEA90B969", "SizeOnDisk" : 2860982, "Texture" : { "AssetType" : "Texture Data", "Compression" : "lzfse", "Encoding" : "ARGB", "PixelHeight" : 1024, "PixelWidth" : 1024, "Rowbytes" : 4096, "Texture Pixel Format" : "R32 Float" } } Full 32bpp basically w/ lz compression?! Why? What's going on? How do I turn this off?

I'm testing a mobile app on TestFlight, and during OAuth authentication with Google Drive and Dropbox, users are redirected to a white page that says "Verification complete," but nothing happens afterward. When they close and reopen the page, they’re prompted to log in and verify again. I’ve read that redirects might behave differently in TestFlight compared to an official release, which is why I’m wondering if this issue might resolve itself upon release or if there are specific steps to fix the redirect handling in TestFlight. Any insights?

Greetings, I want to create an app for Mac and iOS that utilises nodes creations and attachments like used here https://docs-assets.developer.apple.com/published/121c7befdfd24432f4393febe305ebf0/HomePageMaterial1~dark.png As a web developer I know about Vue-flow. But I want to create apps for Mac and iOS. An apple's inner solution for these nodes creations and management if exist please share or if not then a better workaround please! Thank you,

I turned on the opt to install the developer beta on my 15 Pro Max. It downloaded 18.1 but none of the newer features are available such as the apple intelligence and RCS support. I am assuming that I don’t have the newest version of the developer beta, but it isn’t being offered to me to download. Any help with this would be most appreciated.

Hi everyone, I've got an issue with the iPhone simulator version 15 iOS 17.0. Every time a test attempts to take a photo, the app directs to the camera software and then this error appears. For my colleagues instead, they've been directed to the gallery. The only difference is that my machine is M1 while theirs is with Intel chip. I'm using MacOS 13.6.3, the same as them. Does anyone have any idea why this could happen? Thank you in advance.

I get crash log from ios app review rejection. I change extension name from .txt to .crash. And I goes to Window > Devices and Simulators, But I can't find Devices Logs but I have Open Recent Logs After If I open previous crash file, then I make me select Runner file. Then If I click the recent one, it crashes. I think It is not crash file coming from my device, but from ios review..? How can I symbolicate crash log that I get from iOS team? crashlog-F97824BE-F5FC-4CD1-9E06-B0C878E75E49.crash crashlog-F5525960-EB21-454C-8AAE-E68F7D5342F9.crash

Hello, I’m developing an app and want to explore the possibility of using an iPhone to emulate an NFC tag. Specifically, I’m interested in enabling one iPhone to act as an NFC tag that another iPhone can read, creating a tap-to-interact experience within my app. Is this functionality supported by current iOS APIs, or is it something that might be available in the next update for iOS 18.1 which is supposedly unlocking iPhone NFC chips? If not, are there any workarounds or third-party solutions that can achieve this such as bluetooth low energy (BLE) maybe? Any insights or guidance on how to implement this feature would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Dear Apple Developer [Background] We are developing a service running on test mode based on XCTest Framework to support streaming, remote and automation testing with iOS devices. After we upgrade macOS Sonama and Xcode 15 version for upgrade XCTest for support iOS 17 around Jan-2024, we saw We noticed that our running on test mode services stuck and hanging frequently after a period of time. We have investigate and tried debug code and we found that main thread stuck and hanging when it call requesting snapshot of accessibility hierarchy for app. At the same time, we noticed that the application we were testing stuck and hanging too.

Hi there I recently uploaded a new version of my iPad App on Apple Store. It runs normal on Xcode and any simulator, it builds the Archive, it uploads to Apple Store, all normal. Nut users have reported that once they downloaded the new version, it crashes upon start up. At the moment I don't have a real device with me to test it out and check the crash logs. Some facts: (Maybe relevant) I only recently upgraded to OS Sonoma and Xcode 15 I (tried to) remove(d) everything, any reference concerning Firebase, because I was testing it out and gave up using it. So I don't know if this is relevant and if I removed everything I needed. Help

Hello, I have a project on Visual Studio that I am trying to debug but the iOS simulator keeps getting stuck when trying to connect to the server and the mac. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I need to export all subscription/micro purchases made from my app between specific date range. Cant see any related API or dashbaord area for it. How i can achieve that?

Is it possible to stream my Mac's virtual display to a website I create, so I can view my screen remotely? The main goal is to capture screenshots of my Mac's display using voice commands. The idea is to have the display streamed to the website, where I could say something like 'take a screenshot,' and the website would then capture and save a screenshot of the display. Has anyone done something similar or knows how this could be accomplished?
