Overview

I have 6 In-App Purchases configured for my app (4 consumables, 2 non-consumables). They all show "Waiting for Review" status in the In-App Purchases section of App Store Connect. However, when I go to my app's version page (App Store tab → scroll through the version metadata), I cannot find an "In-App Purchases" section anywhere to link these IAPs to my app submission. I've scrolled through the entire page - I see Screenshots, Description, Keywords, Build, App Review Information, etc. - but no IAP section with a "+" button to add my products. When testing via TestFlight with a sandbox account, the app shows "Store is currently unavailable" - I believe this is because the IAPs aren't properly linked to the app. What I've verified: Paid Applications agreement is active All 6 IAPs have status "Waiting for Review" Product IDs match between my code and App Store Connect Sandbox tester account is configured with correct region Build is installed via TestFlight My question: Where exactly should the In-App Purchases section appear on the version page? Is there a step I'm missing to link my IAPs to the app version? Or do IAPs in "Waiting for Review" status automatically get included? more specifically, my app review is getting kicked back because my app store purchases are not available or showing, and ive verified everything i can to ensure that they should be available when testing.

Hello, I am trying to upload a watchOS standalone app to App Store Connect using Xcode 26.3, but Organizer does not show the “App Store Connect” upload option. It only displays: • Release Testing (Ad Hoc) • Enterprise • Debugging Project setup • Target type: watchOS App (standalone, not companion) • PRODUCT_TYPE = com.apple.product-type.application • PRODUCT_BUNDLE_PACKAGE_TYPE = APPL • WRAPPER_EXTENSION = app • SUPPORTED_PLATFORMS = watchos watchsimulator • Archive configuration: Release • Base SDK: watchOS The app does not depend on iOS. Bundle ID Originally: com.example.app.watchkitapp Recreated as: com.example.app HealthKit capability enabled in: • Developer Portal • Xcode (Signing & Capabilities) Signing • Apple Distribution certificate active • App Store provisioning profile created • Manual signing configured for Release (Apple Distribution + App Store profile) • Also tested Automatic signing • Deleted old Ad Hoc profiles • Cleared Derived Data and regenerated archive App Store Connect • App created successfully using bundle ID com.example.app • Account role: Account Holder • No pending Agreements, Tax, or Banking items Despite a valid Release archive signed with Apple Distribution, Organizer only allows Ad Hoc distribution and never shows “App Store Connect”. Is this a known issue in Xcode 26 affecting independent watchOS apps, or is there an additional configuration step required? Thank you.

I'm developing a watchOS nap app that detects when the user falls asleep by monitoring heart rate changes. == Technical Implementation == HKWorkoutSession (.mindAndBody) for background execution HKAnchoredObjectQuery for real-time heart rate data CoreMotion for movement detection == Battery Considerations == Heart rate monitoring ONLY active when user explicitly starts a session Monitoring continues until user is awakened OR 60-minute limit is reached If no sleep detected within 60 minutes, session auto-ends (user may have abandoned or forgotten to stop) App displays clear UI indicating monitoring is active Typical session: 15-30 minutes, keeping battery usage minimal == The Problem == HKWorkoutSession affects Activity Rings during the session. Users receive "Exercise goal reached" notifications while resting — confusing. == What I've Tried == Not using HKLiveWorkoutBuilder → Activity Rings still affected Using builder but not calling finishWorkout() (per https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/780220) → Activity Rings still affected WKExtendedRuntimeSession (self-care type) (per https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/721077) → Only ~10 min runtime, need up to 60 min HKObserverQuery + enableBackgroundDelivery (per https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/779101) → ~4 updates/hour, too slow for real-time detection Audio background session for continuous processing (suggested in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/130287) → Concerned about App Store rejection for non-audio app; if official approves this technical route, I can implement in this direction Some online resources mention "Health Monitoring Entitlement" from WWDC 2019 Session 251, but I could not find any official documentation for this entitlement. Apple Developer Support also confirmed they cannot locate it? == My Question == Is there any supported way to: Monitor heart rate in background for up to 60 minutes WITHOUT affecting Activity Rings or creating workout records? If this requires a special entitlement or API access, please advise on the application process. Or allow me to submit a code-level support request. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am attempting to load a jpeg image into a vImage_Buffer. I am just trying to get the data in an ARGB format. This code works fine in the Xcode 15 build , but fails with kvImageInvalidParameter error from vImageBuffer_InitWithCGImage in the Xcode 26 build. This code is written in ObjectiveC++. Here is a code fragment: int CDib_ARGB::Load(LPCSTR pFilename) { int rc = 0; if (NULL == m_pRaw_vImage_Buffer) { NSString *pNS_filename = [[NSString alloc]initWithUTF8String:pFilename]; NSImage *pNSImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:pNS_filename]; if (nil == pNSImage) rc = -1; else { int width = pNSImage.size.width; int height = pNSImage.size.height; if (pNSImage.representations) { NSImageRep *imageRep; int jj; width = 0; height = 0; for (jj = 0; jj < pNSImage.representations.count; jj++) { imageRep = pNSImage.representations[jj]; if (imageRep.pixelsWide > width) width = imageRep.pixelsWide; if (imageRep.pixelsHigh > height) height = imageRep.pixelsHigh; } } NSSize imageSize = NSMakeSize(width, height); NSRect imageRect = NSMakeRect(0, 0, width, height); pNSImage.size = imageSize; CGImageRef cgImage = [pNSImage CGImageForProposedRect:&imageRect context:NULL hints:nil]; if (nil == cgImage) rc = -1; else { //Alloc and load vImage_Buffer. vImage_Buffer *pvImage_Buffer = new vImage_Buffer; if (NULL == pvImage_Buffer) rc = -1; else { vImage_CGImageFormat format; format.bitsPerComponent = 8; format.bitsPerPixel = 32; format.colorSpace = nil; format.bitmapInfo = kCGImageAlphaFirst | kCGBitmapByteOrderDefault;//ARGB8888 format.version = 0; format.decode = nil; format.renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault; memset(pvImage_Buffer, 0, sizeof(vImage_Buffer)); long status = vImageBuffer_InitWithCGImage(pvImage_Buffer, &format, nil, cgImage, kvImagePrintDiagnosticsToConsole); if (kvImageNoError != status) { //This is where Xcode 26 sends me. delete pvImage_Buffer; rc = -1; } =========================

I am writing a DriverKit driver for the first that uses the USBSerialDriverKit. The driver its purpose is to expose the device as serial interface (/dev/cu.tetra-pei0 or something like this). My problem: I don't see any logs from that driver in the console and I tried like 40 different approaches and checked everything. The last message I see is that the driver get successfully added to the system it is in the list of active and enabled system driver extensions but when I plug the device in none of my logs appear and it doesn't show up in ioreg. So without my driver the target device looks like this: +-o TETRA PEI interface@02120000 <class IOUSBHostDevice, id 0x10000297d, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (13 ms), retain 30> | { | "sessionID" = 268696051410 | "USBSpeed" = 3 | "UsbLinkSpeed" = 480000000 | "idProduct" = 36886 | "iManufacturer" = 1 | "bDeviceClass" = 0 | "IOPowerManagement" = {"PowerOverrideOn"=Yes,"DevicePowerState"=2,"CurrentPowerState"=2,"CapabilityFlags"=32768,"MaxPowerState"=2,"DriverPowerState"=0} | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | "bMaxPacketSize0" = 64 | "iProduct" = 2 | "iSerialNumber" = 0 | "bNumConfigurations" = 1 | "UsbDeviceSignature" = <ad0c16901624000000ff0000> | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "locationID" = 34734080 | "bDeviceSubClass" = 0 | "bcdUSB" = 512 | "USB Address" = 6 | "kUSBCurrentConfiguration" = 1 | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"9dc7b780-9ec0-11d4-a54f-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | "UsbPowerSinkAllocation" = 500 | "bDeviceProtocol" = 0 | "USBPortType" = 0 | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | "Device Speed" = 2 | "idVendor" = 3245 | "kUSBProductString" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "kUSBAddress" = 6 | "kUSBVendorString" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | } | +-o AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice <class AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice, id 0x100002982, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 5> | { | "IOProbeScore" = 50000 | "CFBundleIdentifier" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOProviderClass" = "IOUSBHostDevice" | "IOClass" = "AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOPersonalityPublisher" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "bDeviceSubClass" = 0 | "CFBundleIdentifierKernel" = "com.apple.driver.usb.AppleUSBHostCompositeDevice" | "IOMatchedAtBoot" = Yes | "IOMatchCategory" = "IODefaultMatchCategory" | "IOPrimaryDriverTerminateOptions" = Yes | "bDeviceClass" = 0 | } | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostDeviceUserClient, id 0x100002983, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 7> | { | "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" | "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes | } | +-o IOUSBHostInterface@0 <class IOUSBHostInterface, id 0x100002986, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (5 ms), retain 9> | | { | | "USBPortType" = 0 | | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"2d9786c6-9ef3-11d4-ad51-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | | "USBSpeed" = 3 | | "idProduct" = 36886 | | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | | "bInterfaceSubClass" = 0 | | "bConfigurationValue" = 1 | | "locationID" = 34734080 | | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | | "bInterfaceProtocol" = 0 | | "iInterface" = 0 | | "bAlternateSetting" = 0 | | "idVendor" = 3245 | | "bInterfaceNumber" = 0 | | "bInterfaceClass" = 255 | | "bNumEndpoints" = 2 | | } | | | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostInterfaceUserClient, id 0x100002988, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 6> | { | "UsbUserClientBufferStatistics" = {"IOMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOBufferMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOSubMemoryDescriptor"=0} | "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" | "UsbUserClientBufferAllocations" = {"Bytes"=0,"Descriptors"=0} | "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes | } | +-o IOUSBHostInterface@1 <class IOUSBHostInterface, id 0x100002987, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (5 ms), retain 9> | { | "USBPortType" = 0 | "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {"2d9786c6-9ef3-11d4-ad51-000a27052861"="IOUSBHostFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBLib.bundle"} | "USB Vendor Name" = "Motorola Solutions, Inc." | "bcdDevice" = 9238 | "USBSpeed" = 3 | "idProduct" = 36886 | "IOServiceDEXTEntitlements" = (("com.apple.developer.driverkit.transport.usb")) | "bInterfaceSubClass" = 0 | "bConfigurationValue" = 1 | "locationID" = 34734080 | "USB Product Name" = "TETRA PEI interface" | "bInterfaceProtocol" = 0 | "iInterface" = 0 | "bAlternateSetting" = 0 | "idVendor" = 3245 | "bInterfaceNumber" = 1 | "bInterfaceClass" = 255 | "bNumEndpoints" = 2 | } | +-o lghub_agent <class AppleUSBHostInterfaceUserClient, id 0x10000298a, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0, retain 6> { "UsbUserClientBufferStatistics" = {"IOMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOBufferMemoryDescriptor"=0,"IOSubMemoryDescriptor"=0} "IOUserClientCreator" = "pid 1438, lghub_agent" "UsbUserClientBufferAllocations" = {"Bytes"=0,"Descriptors"=0} "IOUserClientDefaultLocking" = Yes } more details in my comment.

macOS 26.4 Beta appears to have changed how built-in MacBook keyboard events are routed through IOHIDSystem. Third-party virtual HID devices loaded via DriverKit no longer receive events from the built-in keyboard. External keyboards are unaffected. This is already confirmed across multiple users: https://github.com/pqrs-org/Karabiner-Elements/issues/4402 One possible lead (from LLM-assisted code analysis, not independently verified): this could be related to a security policy referred to as com.apple.iohid.protectedDeviceAccess, which may block IOHIDDeviceOpen for the Apple Internal Keyboard via SPI transport (AppleHIDTransportHIDDevice). A "GamePolicy" check in IOHIDDeviceClass.m that gates HID device access could be involved. This is a hint, not a confirmed root cause. The impact goes well beyond a single project. Keyboard remapping on macOS is a thriving ecosystem — used for accessibility, ergonomics, developer productivity, and multilingual input. This is one of macOS's strengths as a platform. Many professionals specifically choose Mac because this level of customization is possible. If this capability is being removed without an alternative, it would significantly diminish what makes macOS attractive for power users and developers. Is this an intentional architectural change to the input event pipeline for built-in keyboards, or a beta regression? If intentional, what is the recommended alternative for developers?

Some users have switched to wearing smart rings instead of an Apple Watch, but they still want their rings to close throughout the day in Apple Fitness to keep their streaks going. I've noticed that the 3rd party smart ring apps do not affect the progress of the exercise and move rings unless the user puts on their Apple Watch and syncs with there iPhone throughout the day. Is there a way to make the progress rings update throughout the day without having to connect an Apple Watch periodically?

I developed a cloud drive using fskit, but after mounting it, it did not appear in the Finder sidebar and the disk tool could not list it. How should I adapt? The mounting looks successful, and you can also open and see the fixed files I wrote in the code. I have also turned on the Finder sidebar settings function

Hello, I am attempting to implement a simple button that loads persistent data from a class (see below). Button("Reload Data") { while tableData2.isEmpty == false{ tableData2.remove(at: 0) } while tableView.isEmpty == false{ tableView.remove(at: 0) } //update if csvData.isEmpty == false{ for superRow in csvData[0].tableData2{ tableData2.append(superRow) } for supperRow in csvData[0].tableView{ tableView.append(supperRow) } print("Item at 0: \(csvData[0].tableData2[[0][0]])") print("\(tableData2[0][0])") } else { print("csvData is empty") } } This button DOES work to appropriately print the data stored at the printed location once loaded in initially. The problem is that it doesn’t work across app restarts, which is the whole point of the button. Below I will include the rest of the relevant code with notes: In contentView declaring the persistant variables: Query private var csvData: [csvDataPersist] Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext The simple class of data I’m storing/pulling to/from: @Model class csvDataPersist{ var tableView: [[String]] = [] var tableData2: [[String]] = [] init(tableView: [[String]], tableData2: [[String]]) { self.tableView = tableView self.tableData2 = tableData2 } } In (appname)App: I tried both locations of the model container but it didn’t seem to matter var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .modelContainer(for: csvDataPersist.self) } //.modelContainer(for: csvDataPersist.self) .modelContainer(sharedModelContainer) } How I’m attempting to save the data: let newCSVDataPersist = csvDataPersist(tableView: tableView, tableData2: tableData2) //modelContext.rollback() //for superrow in csvData.count{ // csvData[superrow].tableData2.removeAll() //} //modelContext.rollback() //csvData[0].tableData2.removeAll() //csvData[0].tableView.removeAll() if csvData.isEmpty == false { print("not empty, deleting prev data") modelContext.delete(csvData[0]) } else { print("it empty, load data.") } modelContext.insert(newCSVDataPersist) //try modelContext.save() Note that I’ve tried just about every combination of enabling and disabling the commented out lines. This is the part of the code I am the least confident in, but after trying for hours to troubleshoot on my own I would appreciate any input from the community. Something else that may be of note, in a previous attempt, upon a second startup, the terminal would print: "coredata: error: error: persistent history (random number) has to be truncated due to the following entities being removed: ( csvdatapersist )" Why is csvDataPersist getting removed? What is it getting removed by? Looking up this error was fruitless. Most sites instructed me to basically hard reset my simulators, clean the build, restart my computer, and try again. I've done all of these things about a hundred times at this point, with no results. Any help would be much appreciated!

Dear Xcode cloud support. on 30.1.2026 Xcode cloud was not able to connect to our git server. so I deleted the repository from app store connect Xcode cloud settings and deleted the Xcode cloud in app store connect for all our apps. I started to create Xcode cloud workflow from Xcode and when I want to Grant Access - Register GitLab Application - to our git repository I get and error : "504 Client Timeout. If you are using a firewall, it must be configured to accept incoming connections." git is behind VPN but the IP address ranges 17.58.0.0/18, 17.58.192.0/18, and 57.103.0.0/22 are white labeled and before 30.1.2026 it was working. I contacted the gitlab administrators and they acknowledged that during "Register GitLab Application" they see no traffic (in gltlab and proxy server) from xcode cloud. I tried "Register GitLab Application" multiple times until now with same error. It is not app specific because this error happens for all our apps. Thanks a lot yours sincerely, Zoltan Bognar More Info: Source Control Provider: git-lab self-managed, tested with web browser: safari, chrome I can provide additional info like Primary repository, App store team ID, Entity Name, Link to repository, Application ID to grant access, and bundle id. if needed.

I accidentally paid twice for Apple Developer Membership, can you refund me? I also want to know what is the status of my first enrollment, 3 days passed since I enrolled.

Issue: I have completed Apple Developer Program three separate times and paid twice: Feb 17, 2026 Feb 20, 2026 Feb 27, 2026 Case IDs: 102826219361 102831748980 I received an Order Acknowledgement email each time stating processing within 2 business days. However: My account still shows “Complete your purchase” My membership has not been activated I have received no follow-up or activation email Multiple support emails received no response. This appears to be a backend enrollment fulfillment failure or a failure on apple supports part, not a payment failure. I need this escalated to the Developer Program Enrollment team for manual review and activation. This is blocking my app development, and frankly the lack of communication is unacceptable for a company like Apple.

ive been stuck pending for 2 days , took my money and then nothing , cmon sort this out , I’ve messaged yet replies

Hello, I have a iOS app I was looking at porting to Mac. I'm having an issue with both the Mac (Designed for iPad) and Mac Catalyst Destinations. I can't test Mac due to too many build issues. I'm trying to assign a new NSManagedObject into a NSPersistentStore. let object = MyObject(context: context) context.assign(object, to: nsPersistentStore) This works fine for iOS/iOS Simulator/iPhone/iPad. But on the Mac it's crashing with FAULT: NSInvalidArgumentException: Can't assign an object to a store that does not contain the object's entity.; { Thread 1: "Can't assign an object to a store that does not contain the object's entity."

Hi, I’m wondering whether RealityKit has its own scene management system, since it uses ARView (backed by ARKit) to present AR content. Does RealityKit manage scenes independently, or does it rely entirely on ARKit’s scene handling? Thank you.

Hello, I’m using a valid certificate bundle generated with SDK 26 (combined RSA‑1024 + RSA‑2048). However, all my devices currently still generate SPC v2 during playback, including my iPhone 16 under iOS 26.2. Apple staff mentioned that future iOS versions will send SPC v3 when using an SDK 26 certificate bundle. Could you please clarify: Which iOS/macOS versions will first support SPC v3? Are there any additional client‑side requirements (Safari version, playback APIs, headers, etc.) to trigger SPC v3? Is there any way to test SPC v3 today, e.g., using beta builds? Thank you!

Hello, I am planning to distribute my iOS app as an Unlisted App. I would like to confirm the following: If users access the standard App Store URL in the format below: https://apps.apple.com/app/idXXXXXXXXXX Will users be able to reach the Unlisted app’s App Store product page via this URL? Or is the specific Unlisted distribution link generated by App Store Connect required for access? My goal is to ensure that in-app update guidance directs users to the correct App Store page. Thank you for your support.

The App Store Connect API specification states that a customer review includes a rating, a title, a body, a reviewer nickname, a creation date, a territory and a response. Unfortunately, it does not provide information on the app version that was reviewed or whether it was edited after a response was posted (or at least when it was last updated). In order to retrieve all reviews including the app version, you first need to fetch all versions of an app, and then fetch all reviews per version. This results in a lot of unnecessary requests, particularly when there are very few to no reviews for a version. Furthermore, determining if or when a review has been updated by a customer is simply not possible via the API. As these informations are available in the App Store Connect UI for all reviews, I would appreciate it if they could be added to the API as well.

Out of nowhere I got some red banner on top of my iPhone 13 mini / iOS 17.5. I cannot pin point the root cause of this. What I can say is that it only happens to Simulators of a certain type, e.g. iPhone 12 and 13 mini, but not iPhone 14 for example. I have installed Xcode 26.1.0 and 26.1.1, out of which 26.1.0 is selected: $ xcode-select -p /Applications/Xcode-26.1.0.app/Contents/Developer And following runtimes: $ xcrun simctl runtime list == Disk Images == -- iOS -- iOS 17.5 (21F79) - CF933623-A258-44F8-B248-C0F25C0C343B (Ready) iOS 26.1 (23B80) - D11C3CDC-EE3D-44CC-8B92-9B7D00B54B0B (Ready) Total Disk Images: 2 (14.6G) Installing the newer 26.1 23B86 runtime doesn't help either.

The documentation specifies that when Contacts framework returns unified contacts that each fetched unified contact object (CNContact) has its own unique identifier that’s different from any individual contact’s identifier in the set of linked contacts and that when refetching a unified contact, that this identifier should be used. There is also an analogous identifier within the list of contactRelations, but each of these don't seem to corespondent to the unified contacts. For example, is a new contact (Sheryl Zakroff) is created in the simulator Contacts and their spouse is set to Hank Zakroff. However, the GUID created for the contactRelations identifier does not correlate to the original Hank Zakroff GUID and cannot be searched. Is this a bug or what is the indent of the contactRelations identifier?
