Hi, I'm trying the new Swift Testing instead of XCTest for my new project. I am using RxSwift+UIKit. And when I am trying to test my ViewModel that has a Driver in it, it crashes due to the driver is not being called form main thread. Thread 5: Fatal error: `drive*` family of methods can be only called from `MainThread`. Here is the test code: struct PlayerViewModelTest { @Test func testInit_shouldPopulateTable_withEmpty() async throws { // Arrange let disposeBag = DisposeBag() var expectedSongTableCellViewData: [SongTableCellViewData]? // Act let sut = PlayerViewModel(provideAllSongs: { return .just(mockSongList) }, provideSongByArtist: { _ in return .just(mockSongList) }, disposeBag: disposeBag) sut.populateTable .drive(onNext: { expectedSongTableCellViewData = $0 }) .disposed(by: disposeBag) // Assert #expect(expectedSongTableCellViewData != nil, "Should emit something so it should not be nil") #expect(expectedSongTableCellViewData!.isEmpty, "Should emit empty array") } } This never happen in XCTest. So I assume Swift Testing is not being run in the main thread? How do I fix this? Thanks

Hello, I have a question regarding the ethernet-over-USB-C stack within iOS/iPadOS. It seems that when manually assigning an IP on this interface within iOS, the IP is stored. Therefore, when disconnecting (the USB-C cable) and reconnecting to another device for a subsequent ethernet connection, the iOS device will always default to the previously assigned IP address (obviously, this isn't the case if the other end is a DHCP server). So, within the iPhone's Ethernet-over-USB-C driver, I was curious if iOS just keeps the assignment based on the MAC of the local USB-C interface, or is stored information tied to some other identifier? Is there a way to override this behavior? Thank you

I have an idea for an app for awhile (5+ years) and it took awhile (a year or more to figure out how to develop on - I know C/C++/FORTRAN, started in the punch card era). I ended up using the MacBook I had, some books and chatGPT and plunged into development. BTW this was all happening while I'm retired, included moving to FL from MD. There are times where development stops for months at a time, I've started and stopped at least four or five times on different portions of the project. I've realized that I can actually skip the user interface until the end if ever. At the beginning of code development, I did little more that "Hello world" programs to get my feet wet. Golf, pickleball, doctor appointments, etc. interrupts development. When I get back to it, my code has "disappeared", I open Xcode, open the project and I don't see any of my code - where did it go? I did find the code using the Finder in Directory/projname/projname/ContentView.swift (I'm not sure why projname is duplicated, no doubt my ignorance!) - so the code is still present, somewhere!

Apple announces a Japanese game (Assassin's Creed) in Japanese in Japan but then states "the App is currently not available in your country or region"... that is, Japan! https://developer.apple.com/jp/news/?id=q2zte70j Game is unavailable so why announce it?

Hi all, after installing ios 18.4 beta here in Europe (and also resetting and restoring my iphone given Apple Intelligence features were not working at all initially) my phone decided to reoptimise my whole photo library which took a while and I understand it was a battery consuming process. Nonetheless, this is all done, all Apple intelligence features supposedly work and my phone is still in ongoing device setup burning through the battery to the point I am sure this will make my battery health drop. does anyone know what is going on (indexing?), how long it will take and why is it happening? Is it because of the 18.4 beta or because of having Apple Intelligence for the first time? can someone please confirm that at the very least this will NOT have to take place again after moving to the official 18.4? thanks

Hello Devs, I wanted to bring this up to display the frustration that I have obtaining the CarPlay entitlements. First and foremost they don't give you a set timeline and there is no contact number to speak to someone about this. When you call developer support they go on and say it is a different department. There is an email but all I have received is an automated response back to me. Has anyone received the navigation entitlements and if so what was the timeline of you receiving it?

Since macOS 15.4 Beta 2, my App Store has been unable to install or download any new applications; it can only download applications I have previously purchased. It appears as follows: when I click 'Get,' the system spins to load and then returns to the initial state. Upon checking system error reports, it seems there's an issue with AMSUIPaymentViewService_macOS [2113]. This problem persists despite changing credit cards or even removing all credit cards. macOS 15.4 Beta 3 has not fixed this error.

I am using HelloPhotogrammetry in Xcode I can make one model with something like HelloPhotogrammetry.main([path_to_folder_of images, path_to_output/model.usdz, "-d", "medium", "-o", "unordered", "-f", "high" ]) But how would I request several models simultaneously? I only want to vary the detail. [ ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_medium.usdz", detail: .medium), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_full.usdz", detail: .full), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_raw.usdz", detail: .raw ]

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'd like to propose a system-wide enhancement for future versions of iOS: the integration of native utility apps — Calculator, Compass, Voice Memos, Magnifier, Measure, Weather, and Translate — into a single unified app, tentatively called Apple Assist. The vision is to provide: A modular interface where users can enable/disable tools as needed. Smarter workflows with proactive suggestions based on context (time, location, task). AI-powered interaction through voice and Apple Intelligence (Advanced Siri). Benefits: Reduces icon clutter on the Home Screen. Simplifies the user experience with a single access point. Creates opportunities for automation and accessibility. Imagine saying: “Hey Siri, record a quick note and measure the table” — and the app smartly loads those modules on demand. Would love to hear feedback from the community — and whether Apple might consider something in this direction for iOS 19 or beyond. Best regards, Jose Luiz Horta Barbosa Maurity Cruz

i am using this code public static bool CheckForForceUpdate() { try { Version latestVersion = new(GetLatestVersion()); Version currentVersion = new(AppInfo.VersionString); if (latestVersion != null && currentVersion < latestVersion) { NSUserDefaults.StandardUserDefaults.SetBool(true, StorageKey.IsForceUpdate); return true; } else { NSUserDefaults.StandardUserDefaults.SetBool(false, StorageKey.IsForceUpdate); return false; } } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("CheckForForceUpdate....." + ex.Message); return false; } } public static string GetLatestVersion() { try { string appId = "1586153397"; // Replace with your App Store app ID string url = $"https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id={appId}"; using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()) { var response = client.GetStringAsync(url).GetAwaiter().GetResult(); var json = JObject.Parse(response); var latestVersion = json["results"]?[0]?["version"]?.ToString(); return latestVersion; } } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("GetLatestVersion..." + ex.Message); return null; } } The value of latestVersion should 2.1 in my production app i am not able to get this hence i am not able to achieve Force Update functionality

Back in December 2024 I noticed when I go through the steps to print I would get an error to cancel or retry. We have 4 iPhones and 3 had the newest IOS and those 3 would get the same error. The phone that had old ios 17 something the print would work. Called Apple and did troubleshooting, the opened something on apples end for the developer to investigate. Within 2 weeks a new ios was available and fixed the issue on the 3 phones that could not print. I did the latest update February and March 2025 on all 4 phones thinking no way the issue will happen again and if did all 4 phone cannot print. Is there an iOS bug that is affecting printing ios 18.3.2.

We have an Angular web application which gets installed as a webclip on client iPads. The web application has buttons that will take the user directly to our native iOS application. We also would like a way for our webclip application when opened to perform some data lookups and if certain conditions are met, then take the user directly to our native iOS app. We're using vanilla JS window.open. This works well when the user manually taps button. However, this does not work when the webclip application tries to open the native iOS app without user interaction. In that case the window.open does nothing. The window.open target URL is the exact same in both cases. We tried using URL Schemes instead of Universal Links but with this the iPad displays a modal asking "Do you want to open ?". For our use case, this is unacceptable. Is there any way for us to skip this prompt? We'd like there to be no additional action needed from the user to be able to get from webclip to native iOS app beyond simply opening the webclip.

Hi everyone, We're hoping someone here can help us out. We've run into a consistent issue when trying to enroll a new Apple Developer account as an organisation using our DUNS number. Here's what we've experienced: Individual enrollment through the Developer app works perfectly with a new Apple ID. However, when using an existing Apple ID and selecting organization enrollment, the process gets stuck: The payment button is greyed out in the Developer app. We're then locked out of enrolling through the app entirely. 4. When trying to complete the enrollment via the Developer website, there’s no valid payment method available (e.g., VISA option missing CVV field), and any attempts to proceed just loop without success. We're essentially stuck in a limbo state where we can’t proceed. We’ve gone through all the support channels: The automated assistant (Gaby) is unable to resolve the issue or understand the full context. Live chat support for both individual and business accounts told us they can’t assist and referred us back to the developer support system—which leads us back to square one. All members of our team were able to enroll individually without issue, but organisation enrollment consistently failed. Business support and Commercial support (spoken to supervisors) are unable to assist. They really tried and made an effort. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to get in touch with a real person at Apple who can actually resolve this? What are our next steps? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm building a Live Activity using ActivityKit in iOS, and I'm trying to understand how apps like Uber or Lyft manage to keep the Dynamic Island always in its expanded state, without transitioning through the compact phase. In my implementation, the Live Activity always starts in the compact state, and only expands temporarily when I interact with it. I've tried the following: Updating the ContentState frequently using activity.update(using:) I tried updating the activity every 1 second, but it didn’t make a difference. Leaving the compactLeading, compactTrailing, and minimal regions empty using EmptyView() — also didn’t change the behavior. Delaying the initial update by 1 second — no effect. What I'm trying to figure out: Is there any way to programmatically force or request the Dynamic Island to stay in the expanded state? Could this behavior be achieved through push updates, using apns-push-type: liveactivity and a high priority (apns-priority)? What I’m trying to achieve is similar to the behavior shown in the images below — the apps do not transition to the compact island, but instead displays the expanded view immediately. Example:
