I published my app clip last year in the App Store. I can successfully open my app clip in iMessage or via link URL. but scanning the QR code of the very same URL leads to the "app clip is unavailable" error, in this case, I can see my application name and banner correctly. Any Idea why?

Hi everyone, I’ve removed my App Clip completely: Deleted all Advanced App Clip Experiences Removed the App Clip target from my build Removed App Clip references from my apple-app-site-association file Deleted the meta tag from my website: But when I scan the QR code, the App Clip card still appears with: "This App Clip is not currently available in your country or region." Does anyone know why this is still showing and how to fully remove it? we need to show our website when this QRCode is scanned. Thanks!

Dear Apple, while implementing Declared Age Range API in my app, I've noticed a mistake in documentation: the isEligibleForAgeFeatures property is marked 26.0+ in documentation, but 26.2+ in Xcode, which ultimately leads to inability to use it with OS below 26.2. Moreover, I'm thoroughly confused by this quote from documentation: This flag returns true on iOS and iPadOS based on a person’s eligibility and always returns false on macOS. It leads me to two questions: Is it possible to use Declared Age Range API for macOS apps? Will it be possible to use it in future? Will there be any changes regarding this matter in a meantime (especially after Jan 1st)? If yes - when should we expect these changes? If no - why this API declares macOS 26+ support alongside iOS/iPadOS, if it simply doesn't work for macOS now? As of now, my iOS app works flawlessly with given API (on iOS 26.2) while macOS app returns isEligibleForAgeFeatures = false and requestAgeRange request always throws AgeRangeService.Error.notAvailable. Also, does it mean that one should not use isEligibleForAgeFeatures boolean while implementing Declared Age Range API for apps below iOS 26.2 (I mean 26.0+)? Or implementing given API for iOS 26.2+ is a sufficient way to go? So shouldn't the whole API be marked as 26.2+? The minimum iOS version in my app is 16.0 and minimum macOS version is 13.0 anyway, so the significant part of users is left out of these updates, but the main goal here is legal compliance.

Original discussion pre iOS 26 Our app uses Auth0 with HTTPS callback, we've found the issue where AASA file is not ready immediately when app is initially launched, which is the exact issue from the above link. The issue seems mostly fixed on later versions on iOS 18, however, we are seeing some indications of a regression on iOS 26. Here's some measurement over the last week. | Platform | iOS 18 | iOS 26 | |---------------|----------|--------| | Adoption rate | 55% | 45% | | Issue seen | 1 | 5 | | Recover? | Yes | No | This only 1 iOS 18 instance was able to recover after 1 second after the first try, however, all iOS 26 instances were not able to recover in couple tens of seconds and less than 1 minute, the user eventually gave up. Is there a way to force app to update AASA file? Are there some iOS setting (like using a VPN) that could potentially downgrade the AASA fetch?

I'm developing a VoIP app. Currently, I'm using CallKit to control call acceptance, and end-of-call processing. When a call comes in while using the phone, CallKit appears as a banner at the top of the screen. When I click "Accept" on the banner, the app opens and the call is received. (For OEMs, clicking the "Accept" button in the banner will accept the call as is.) The reason this feature is needed is, for example, when a call comes in as a banner call while using a navigation app, accepting the call causes the navigation app to go to the back and the VoIP app to come to the foreground, causing inconvenience to customers. This needs to be improved. Please advise.

I am trying to port my sandboxed macOS app completely over to iOS using a Catalyst target and SwiftUI. There appears to be an issue when trying to drag to the Finder in Catalyst (and in SwiftUI in General). For some reason, the Finder will not accept multiple file drops, only a single file. On my macOS (non-Catalyst AppKit target), I overcame this by dropping multiple files to a UTType of .folder, and the OS accepted the folder. This workaround is not available for iOS because .folder is a macOS-only option. I have a test app to illustrate the issue. Hopefully someone can help. Download Test App

AgeRangeService is the burning topic right now. Needless to say, Everything is so unclear. We got our app finally into the TestFlight for QA and the product to test. only to find out that AgeAssurance for sandbox testing does not work. There is no document confirming or denying whether and when age assurance for the App with the release configuration in test flight would work. There isn't any guidance from Apple on whether an app that sells physical goods, such as an e-commerce app, can continue doing business as usual. Also, there is no clarity that the Age assurance options are off, 13, unverified, 13 verified, and so on. How those should be used.

I am facing a severe audio routing instability issue when using CallKit and the Zego Express SDK on iOS. The problem is that the audio route immediately reverts from the Speaker back to the Earpiece, effectively disabling the Speaker button functionality.📝 Observed BehaviorWhen the user taps the native CallKit Speaker Button, the audio route is correctly changed to the Speaker, but then instantly flips back to the Receiver (Earpiece), as shown in the system log captured via AVAudioSession.routeChangeNotification monitoring.🧾 Log Evidence (Flapping Occurs in 0.4 seconds)The following log snippet clearly illustrates the system overriding the user's action (reason: 4) with an unexpected CategoryChange (reason: 3) event: TimestampComponentReason CodeDescriptionRouteIs Speaker16:31:18.009[CallKitManager]4Override (CallKit/ControlCenter)Loa ngoài (Speaker)true16:31:18.411[CallKitManager]3CategoryChangeThiết bị nhận (Receiver)false

When updating an existing advanced app clip experience, the change doesn't actually apply. It shows the correct image in the UI, but when you use the app clip it shows the old image. Looking into it more, the status has "UPDATE_SUBMITTED". Seems related to this issue (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/810544) and this issue (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/810351).

I'm implementing the PushToTalk framework and have encountered an issue where channelManager(_:didActivate:) is not called under specific circumstances. What works: App is in foreground, receives PTT push → didActivate is called ✅ App receives audio in foreground, then is backgrounded → subsequent pushes trigger didActivate ✅ What doesn't work: App is launched, user joins channel, then immediately backgrounds PTT push arrives while app is backgrounded incomingPushResult is called, I return .activeRemoteParticipant(participant) The system UI shows the speaker name correctly However, didActivate is never called Audio data arrives via WebSocket but cannot be played (no audio session) Setup: Channel joined successfully before backgrounding UIBackgroundModes includes push-to-talk No manual audio session activation (setActive) anywhere in my code AVAudioEngine setup only happens inside didActivate delegate method Issue persists even after channel restoration via channelDescriptor(restoredChannelUUID:) Question: Is this expected behavior or a bug? If expected, what's the correct approach to handle incoming PTT audio when the app is backgrounded and hasn't received audio while in the foreground yet?

While preparing my app for Declared Age Range capability usage, I've noticed a weird behaviour: the same code works for iOS, but not for macOS. My project uses same target for both platforms, so the capability is enabled for both platforms. The business logic layer is also shared across between platforms. Both UI layers are writter in SwiftUI. The iCloud account used for testing on iOS and macOS devices is the same, so even the consent is shared across both devices. While requestAgeRange(ageGates:) seems to work just fine for iOS app, for macOS app it always throws Not available error (DeclaredAgeRange.AgeRangeService.Error.notAvailable) Am I missing something? Could the API be somehow unavailable for macOS? Should I use AgeRangeService.shared.requestAgeRange(ageGates:in:) for macOS instead of SwiftUI's @Environment-based approach? Also, after giving permission, is there a way to actually revoke it? In Age Range for Apps menu I can only view the list of apps that have my consent to share my age range, but not the ability to revoke it.

For other permission prompts in the iOS ecosystem, we have the option to configure the text shown in the prompt via keys in the Info.plist. This does not appear to be the case with regards to the age range permission prompt. The text of the prompt implies the app includes a differentiated experience for child or teen content and that confirming age unlocks more features (making it seem optional for using the app). Is there a plan for app developers to be able to update that permission prompt similarly to how we can configure others? If so, is there any timeline we can expect that on?

We are using AgeRangeService.requestAgeRange(ageGates:in:) with an age gate of 18 to verify adult users. The system prompt always displays the lower-bound wording (“17 or Younger”), even when the app’s requirement is to verify users who are 18 or older. We understand the UI is system-controlled; however, this wording causes confusion for users, QA, and product teams, as it appears to indicate a child-only flow even when requesting adult verification. Based on the demonstration video, it appears that they have another more coherent message. In Apple's example, it is different, and it is correct that we need to specify 18 years or older in the implementation. A little more context might be helpful, but we are creating a kind of wrapper with React Native that receives that value as a parameter, which is 18.

I recently submitted an Advanced App Clip Experience, and the status currently shows as "Received." My default App Clip Experience is already working well, but I need the advanced experience to go live as soon as possible. Does anyone know the typical timeframe for this to be published? Also, will the status change from "Received" to something else when it is fully active? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey Im currently trying to use the weatherkit API and Im seeing the following returned: {"reason": "OVER_QUOTA"} Im using the correct service, key and bundle ID. Ive generated a private key too.

I am using the WeatherKit REST API with hourlyStart/hourlyEnd parameters to request up to 240 hours of forecast data. However, when requesting later in the day, the API returns fewer than 240 hourly forecasts — e.g., 239 at 08:00, 238 at 09:00, etc. and goes up to 224 for 23:00 It appears the returned list is contiguous but truncated at the end compared to the full 240-hour window. I have also tried getting the data after sometime, like 09:00 data at 09:45 but still was missing the same data at the end. Is this expected WeatherKit behavior or a bug? If it’s expected, is there documentation explaining how the “forecast horizon” is determined and when it is updated? Thank you.

After the update to iOS 17, tapping on message notification shown on CarPlay Dashboard is navigating to the CarPlay app instead of announcing the message notification.

Hello, I have an app on the App Store built around WeatherKit and it was working fine, up until this morning when I started seeing errors when using the app. When debugging using Xcode I see the familiar error Failed to generate jwt token for: com.apple.weatherkit.authservice with error: Error Domain=WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors Code=2 "(null)" which, according to what I've read on the forums looks like an authentication error. Attaching a network debugger to the Simulator, I saw this error: This I have tried: Verify that WeatherKit is enabled on both Capabilities and App Services tabs on the Dev Portal. Toggle on/off this value and regenerate Provisioning Profiles Uninstall/reinstall Checking that I have API available calls. Nothing. If I create a new Bundle ID and sign with that, it works correctly. But this is not an option since that will force all my customers to download everything from scratch. I am getting emails from customers demanding money back and I can't figure out what has happened. The only thing I can think of, is that I started developing an Apple Watch app to complement the iOS app, but that was last week and everything was working fine.

My app updates are repeatedly rejected under Guideline 2.3.6 – Accurate Metadata, with a request to remove “Age Assurance” unless the feature can be located. However, the app does include age assurance. During onboarding, users must enter their date of birth, and users under 16 are blocked from completing registration and using the app. The app contains a women’s health blog and a community Q&A feature (similar to Reddit), where users can ask and answer health-related questions. For this reason, I am considering restricting access to users 18 and older. Each time I explain this to the review team and provide a screenshot of the DOB screen, the app is approved. What is the correct way to document or surface this in App Store Connect so reviewers can easily find it and avoid repeated rejections? Is a DOB gate sufficient for Apple’s definition of Age Assurance?

Hey all, Running into an issue with a WeatherKit. Whenever I make a WeatherKit API call, I get this error: Details: { domain: WeatherDaemon.WDSClientErrors, localizedDescription: invalidAuthorization: 401, underlyingError: Unknown, code: 3 } This only happens when calling via the Swift package: swift WeatherService.shared.weather(for: location).currentWeather When I was calling the WeatherKit REST API directly from Dart, everything worked fine. So far I’ve: Enabled WeatherKit in the Apple Developer account Added the WeatherKit capability to the app Refreshed provisioning profiles Installed the app fresh on device/simulator Has anyone seen this specific invalidAuthorization: 401 from WeatherDaemon.WDSClientErrors when using WeatherService in Swift, and know what might be missing or misconfigured?
