Overview

I built two parts of my app a bit disjointed: my physics component, which controls all SceneReconstruction, HandTracking, and WorldTracking. my spatial GroupActivities component that allows you to see personas of those that join the activity. My problem: When trying to use any DataProvider in a spatial experience, I get the ARKit Session Event: dataProviderStateChanged, which disables all of my providers. My question: Has anyone successfully been able to find a workaround for this? I think it would be amazing to have one user be able to be the "host" for the activity and the scene reconstruction provider still continue to run for them.

Hi, For 10 days now we've been rejected with no answer. I am afraid Apple will never answer us... and 3 years of development down the drain. My team and our whole families are waiting but as the days go by, it is looking more and more grim for us I am afraid. Is there anything we can do? Our game had a decent rating and audience reception so far. All of our code is built by us over thousands of hours. We have alot of features that competitors do not have, this was even mentioned by several Youtubers and called out as a unique game. Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam We noticed your app shares a similar binary, metadata, and/or concept as apps submitted to the App Store by other developers, with only minor differences. Any advice would be so appreciated ! Thank you, Alex

I can enroll iOS and macOS devices with success when DEP is not used (OTA). With DEP, I can enroll iOS devices but not macOS devices. In this case, the process fails when the activation profile is received, because the system cannot decrypt the returned payload. Note that I sign the payload using the server certificate (trusted as the anchored certs are defined accordingly) and I encrypt the payload using the device identity certificate. This identity certificate was obtained when the device reached the enrollment URL (used to sign the inbound payload). From the console logs, it seems that the device cannot find the aforementioned certificate using the issuer and serial number, which is surprising because this should be the device identity certificate. I currently use PKCS7 openssl 3 API. I am wondering if I should switch for the CMS functions since it provides a way to define the certificate using it's key identifier rather than the issuer and serial number. I'm also wondering if certificates are missing in the chain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had some support tickets about dates not showing properly for customers based in the America/Merida timezone. Essentially America/Merida permanently changed to -0500 (CDT) on October 31, 2021, and it appears that the NSTimeZone does not respect this change, and reports times as -0600 (CST). Creating a little test tool with the following code: +(void) run { NSArray<NSString *> * args = [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] arguments]; if ([args count] > 1) { NSString *timezone = args[1]; NSLog(@"custom TZ: %@", timezone); NSTimeZone * tz = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:timezone]; [NSTimeZone setDefaultTimeZone:tz]; } NSDate * now = [NSDate date]; NSLog(@"Testing Dates: (local timezone : %@)", [NSTimeZone localTimeZone]); NSLog(@" (default timezone: %@)", [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]); NSLog(@" (is DST : %@)", [[NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone] isDaylightSavingTimeForDate:now] ? @"YES" : @"NO"); NSLog(@" (current cal-tz : %@)", [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] timeZone]); NSLog(@" (current locale : %@)", [[NSLocale currentLocale] localeIdentifier]); NSLog(@"Now: %@", now); } And running with the America/Merida timezone passed in, I'm getting the following output: custom TZ: America/Merida Testing Dates: (local timezone : Local Time Zone (America/New_York (EDT) offset -14400 (Daylight))) (default timezone: America/Merida (CST) offset -21600) (is DST : NO) (current cal-tz : America/Merida (CST) offset -21600) (current locale : en_US) Now: Tue May 14 15:06:14 2024 Running the same code on Linux via the GNUStep implementation of Objective-C, I get the correct output with America/Merida showing up as CDT (ie (is DST : YES)). Are there any good ways to work around this?

Hello, I have been stumped on this issue for a week and am looking for guidance on how to resolve it. I am aware of Guideline 5.1.1 Legal: Privacy - Data Collection and Storage and have read through it. The core functionality of our app is a Message Chatbot. This is the only feature we have, and we require user registration to limit the number of messages that can be sent on the free tier. However, despite explaining why we need user registration and pointing to a number of very similar apps that have the exact same registration system, we are not able to get approval from the App Reviewers. Their message is: "To resolve this issue, please revise the app to let users freely access the app's features that are not account-based." The problem is that we do not have any other features in our app, so we are stuck. I was wondering if anyone else had similar issues and what they did to fix it? Thank you!

I am developing a suite of apps/helpers that get built into an installer package for deployment (outside The App Store). We have that release process ± working, except that most of the development team members are not admins/privileged on the team. They don't really need to publish on behalf of the team, and so we don't want to have debug builds also depend on being signed as "Developer ID Application". But that is running into problems… If I select instead "Sign to Run Locally" this results in an error for some of the build products along the lines of: [Build Target] requires a provisioning profile. Enable development signing and select a provisioning profile in the Signing & Capabilities editor. If I select "Apple Development" as the Code Signing Identity it leaves me with basically the same error as "Developer ID Application" does: Provisioning profile [Name of App/Helper] doesn't include signing certificate "Apple Development: [Name of Developer] ([TEAMID])" And finally, if simply set the Debug value for Provisioning Profile to "None" for the problematic products I get errors like: "[Name of app]" requires a provisioning profile. Select a provisioning profile in the Signing & Capabilities editor. I believe perhaps because some of the targets have an entitlements file granting access to various things (their own XPC services, their own shared preferences, as well as Outgoing Network Connections and com.apple.security.smartcard access…). In older versions of Xcode and/or macOS we didn't have trouble like this, local development could be done by basically any team member. Now it seems like maybe all developers need to have release-signing privileges to test/debug even on their own machines? Or is there a combination I'm missing, that would allow anyone on the team (or perhaps not even on the team) to build and debug the code locally, while still limiting who is able to actually sign notarized release builds on behalf of the team?

Since iOS 12 it has become difficult to detect the end of playback using the system music player. In earlier iOS versions, the now playing item would be set nil and you would receive a notification that the player stopped. In iOS 12 and later, nowPlayingItem still contains the current song and the only notification you get is MPMusicPlayerControllerPlaybackStateDidChangeNotification with the playbackState set to MPMusicPlaybackStatePaused. Pressing pause in my car (or any remote access) generates the same conditions making it difficult to correctly detect the difference. It would be nice if they added a notification that playback was done (similar to the other players). Any suggestions?

Hi there! I am trying to build a macOS app using Electron. There is a feature on the app that depends on a http server to run locally. This Server was built using Java. Both the compiled server and the Java Runtime Environment were bundled in the build. To start the server I use NodeJS's child_process.spawn, pointing the bundled JRE's executable and the server implementation. The issue I am facing is that the Java Virtual Machine is not starting. It returns the following error message: Error: Port Library failed to initialize: -1 Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. Both the JRE and the server are located in Contents directory, in a subdirectory I have created for them. Here are the app's entitlements: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.application-groups</key> <string>REDACTED</string> <key>com.apple.application-identifier</key> <string>REDACTED</string> <key>com.apple.developer.team-identifier</key> <string>REDACTED</string> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.disable-executable-page-protection</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.client</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.server</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.device.microphone</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.device.audio-input</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.device.camera</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.print</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.temporary-exception.files.absolute-path.read-write</key> <true/> </dict> </plist> Here the entitlements inherit: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.inherit</key> <true/> </dict> </plist> Is there any missing step to allow the spawning of this process?

Try to create new version of app and got next error. Last version is 1.0, try to create 1.1

Hello, I am trying to get network statistics using Swift on macOS. I am attempting to obtain: total input bytes total output bytes total input packets total output packets The following code works in the app as far as I can tell so far, but... the for-loop is a hack that I'd like to correct by properly iterating over all the interfaces. import Foundation import OSLog struct NetworkStatisticsData { var totalInputBytes: UInt64 = 0 var totalOutputBytes: UInt64 = 0 var totalInputPackets: UInt64 = 0 var totalOutputPackets: UInt64 = 0 } final class NetworkStatistics: Sendable { private let logger = Logger(subsystem: Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier!, category: "SwiftNetworkInformation") func getNetworkStatistics() -> NetworkStatisticsData { var networkStatisticsData = NetworkStatisticsData() for i in 1..<24 { // <- this for-loop should be iterating over a list of interfaces. NET_RT_IFLIST2 ? var keys: [Int32] = [ CTL_NET, PF_LINK, NETLINK_GENERIC, IFMIB_IFDATA, Int32(i), IFDATA_GENERAL ] var mibData: ifmibdata = ifmibdata() var mibDataSize: size_t = MemoryLayout<ifmibdata>.size if sysctl(&keys, u_int(keys.count), &mibData, &mibDataSize, nil, 0) < 0 { logger.error("sysctl error getting mib data: \(String(describing: strerror(errno)))") } networkStatisticsData.totalInputPackets += mibData.ifmd_data.ifi_ipackets networkStatisticsData.totalOutputPackets += mibData.ifmd_data.ifi_opackets networkStatisticsData.totalInputBytes += mibData.ifmd_data.ifi_ibytes networkStatisticsData.totalOutputBytes += mibData.ifmd_data.ifi_obytes } return networkStatisticsData } } Any thoughts on how to iterate over all of the network interfaces (maybe using NET_RT_IFLIST2)? When I run ifconfig in the terminal, there are 24 interfaces, hence the reason for 24 in the for-loop.

Hi, Recently noticed this issue on Xcode 15.2 When I select a Test Plan, disable a class, enable just 1 test within that class and refresh the test plan the entire class gets enabled again. steps to notice the issue: Select Test Plan 1 Disable a class Enable 1 test within the class Select Test Plan 2 Select Test Plan 1 Disabled class and all the tests inside the class are enabled. Note: For now the workaround for that is disabling each test of the class individually Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? If theres a way to disable a class instead of disabling each test inside the class?

Hi, we recently noticed an issue when exporting the localization files from one of our projects. So in the exported .xliff file, there is a string that has been varied into the plural forms of zero, one and other. We had translated them into Japanese. But in the .xliff file, the source element of this string in plural ONE is missing, while the target as well as the others plural strings are showing correct. We've also checked in Xcode (15.3), the content of whether the source or target are there for all the plural forms, as you can see below. The same issue (same string) also exists in Korean and Russian, but not in other languages we support (like German, French, Chinese), which is a bit weird to us. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and how can we fix it?

I'm trying to integrate the option to the player to save their data in the cloud, I integrate the CloudKit, change some stuff to make it work and build in Xcode to my phone. But when I try to integrate the CloudSave, 50 unnasigned symbols jump,like this one: Undefined symbol: _CKContainer_Default I managed to fix them by updating the recommended settings for Xcode. But then 4 more errors appear: Sandbox: il2cpp(12538) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Username/Test Apple Kit 2022/Build/Il2CppOutputProject/IL2CPP/build/deploy_arm64/il2cpp So, don't let me build and I've looked everywhere but no one seems to had this same error

Hello, I developed a parental control app, this app has two clients one for the child and one for the parent. I could implement screen time to retrieve the child's screen time data and show it to the child by ActivityReportExtension but I didn't find any document to implement this feature on the parent device. I mean like the Apple screen time, parents can see their children's screen time (in the settings>screen time) I need to implement ActivityReportExtension in the parent client of my app that shows the child's screen time. is it possible or this API is only restricted to Apple itself?

[Q] What type of profiles are officially reported by the ES_EVENT_TYPE_NOTIFY_PROFILE_ADD and ES_EVENT_TYPE_NOTIFY_PROFILE_REMOVE events? It looks like to be only Configuration Profiles. Which would make sense as the properties of es_profile_t match closely the payload keys of a configuration profile file. Also only addition and removal of configuration profiles are reported when playing with configuration profiles and provisioning profiles.

how long will my app in review, it's almost 17 days,?

Hi, We are currently working on a baby monitor app that utilizes NEAppPushProvider to deliver push notifications since we can't rely on an internet connection. Similar to the example, we are adding and removing the matchSSIDs of NEAppPushManager to start and stop the extension for activating and deactivating notifications during monitoring. It works as expected. However, we now want to detect if the device loses the Wi-Fi connection, and I'm struggling to determine how to distinguish between intentional changes to matchSSIDs and an actual loss of connection. Is there another method to halt the extension? Thanks in advance!

my app got reject for reason "other", It's almost a month passed, I got no resonse, no email, please help

Trying to install a mobile provision on my iPad from Windows 10 using iTunes. The error message is as above. I've checked and rechecked the mobile provision. The UUID of my device is contained within my mobile provision. I also tried on MacOS with the same error code. I'm not sure what else to try. I tried making a new mobile provision, I tried readding my device (which isn't possible since it's just the same UUID as an already existing device. I updated iTunes to the latest verison, I've upgraded my iPad OS to the latest version (17.5)
