I found that the aggregated device correctly obtains input channels in the standard microphone mode. However, in voice isolation mode, it only retrieves channels from the first sub-device in the aggregated device's list. If I want to properly obtain channel information in voice isolation mode, how should I do it?

Just testing an existing app with Xcode 26. I notice that content of UIBarButtonItem (either text or image) disappears when tapped (and reappear on release). Those are custom, bordered buttons. Attribute inspector: Buttons in Xcode: When selected in Xcode, we see a rectangle inside the rounder rect of iOS 26 In simulator: When tapped in simulator: I have edited code from backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: .normal) to backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: [.normal, .focused, .selected, .highlighted]) to no avail. What am I missing ?

This is a hybrid app built with JavaScript (Vue) + Capacitor. It is a reader app and has been authorized by Apple to use the External Link Account Entitlement, allowing users to manage their subscriptions outside of the app. I have implemented the External Link Account API. When I click on "Gerenciar Assinatura em...", I use the External Link Account API to check if the modal is available (using ExternalLinkAccount.canOpen()). I always get "false". my plugin in swift: my app: I believe this is due to the fact that I am in a development environment. My project is configured correctly in the following files: info.plist and App.entitlements. I also have the authorization in my profile visible in Xcode. I have attached screenshots for validation. The question is: should the External Link Account API work in a test environment? I am testing the build in Xcode with a physical iPhone with iOS 18. file info.plist: file App.entitlements: xcode with authorization in my profile: If you could let me know if I am doing something wrong, I would greatly appreciate it.

The other day I was playing with iBeacon and found out that CLBeaconIdentityConstraint will be deprecated after iOS 18.5. So I've written code with BeaconIdentityCondition in reference to this Apple's sample project. import Foundation import CoreLocation let monitorName = "BeaconMonitor" @MainActor public class BeaconViewModel: ObservableObject { private let manager: CLLocationManager static let shared = BeaconViewModel() public var monitor: CLMonitor? @Published var UIRows: [String: [CLMonitor.Event]] = [:] init() { self.manager = CLLocationManager() self.manager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() } func startMonitoringConditions() { Task { print("Set up monitor") monitor = await CLMonitor(monitorName) await monitor!.add(getBeaconIdentityCondition(), identifier: "TestBeacon") for identifier in await monitor!.identifiers { guard let lastEvent = await monitor!.record(for: identifier)?.lastEvent else { continue } UIRows[identifier] = [lastEvent] } for try await event in await monitor!.events { guard let lastEvent = await monitor!.record(for: event.identifier)?.lastEvent else { continue } if event.state == lastEvent.state { continue } UIRows[event.identifier] = [event] UIRows[event.identifier]?.append(lastEvent) } } } func updateRecords() async { UIRows = [:] for identifier in await monitor?.identifiers ?? [] { guard let lastEvent = await monitor!.record(for: identifier)?.lastEvent else { continue } UIRows[identifier] = [lastEvent] } } func getBeaconIdentityCondition() -> CLMonitor.BeaconIdentityCondition { CLMonitor.BeaconIdentityCondition(uuid: UUID(uuidString: "abc")!, major: 123, minor: 789) } } It works except that my sample app can take as long as 90 seconds to see event changes. You would get an instant update with an fashion (CLBeacon and CLBeaconIdentityConstraint). Is there anything that I can do to see changes faster? Thanks.

I'm currently working on implementing a character limit for Korean text input using UITextField, but I've encountered two key issues. 1. How can I determine if Korean input is complete? I understand that markedTextRange represents provisional (composing) text during multistage text input systems (such as Korean, Japanese, Chinese). While testing with Korean input, I expected markedTextRange to reflect the composing state. However, it seems that markedTextRange remains nil throughout the composition process. 2. Problems limiting character count for Korean input I’ve tried two methods to enforce a character limit. Both lead to incorrect behavior due to how Korean characters are composed. Method 1 – Before replacement: func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool { guard let text = textField.text else { return true } return text.count <= 5 } This checks the text length before applying the replacementString. The issue is that when the user enters a character that is meant to combine with the previous one to form a composed character, the input should result in a single, combined character. However, because the character limit check is based on the state before the replacement is applied, the second character does not get composed as expected. Method 2 – After change: textField.addTarget(self, action: #selector(editingChanged), for: .editingChanged) @objc private func editingChanged(_ sender: UITextField) { guard var text = sender.text else { return } if text.count > limitCount { text.removeLast() sender.text = text } } This removes the last character if the count exceeds the limit after the change. But when a user keeps typing past the limit, the last character is overwritten by new input. I suspect this happens because the .editingChanged event occurs before the multistage input is finalized, and the final composed character is applied after that event. My understanding of the input flow: Standard input: shouldChangeCharactersIn is called replacementString is applied .editingChanged is triggered With multistage input (Korean, etc.): shouldChangeCharactersIn is called replacementString is applied .editingChanged is triggered Final composed character is inserted (after all the above) Conclusion Because both approaches lead to incorrect character count behavior with Korean input, I believe I need a new strategy. Is there an officially recommended way to handle multistage input properly with UITextField in this context? Any advice or clarification would be greatly appreciated.

In reference to this webpage, I'm turning my iPad to an iBeacon device. class BeaconViewModel: NSObject, ObservableObject, CBPeripheralManagerDelegate { private var peripheralManager: CBPeripheralManager? private var beaconRegion: CLBeaconRegion? private var beaconIdentityConstraint: CLBeaconIdentityConstraint? //private var beaconCondition: CLBeaconIdentityCondition? override init() { super.init() if let uuid = UUID(uuidString: "abc") { beaconIdentityConstraint = CLBeaconIdentityConstraint(uuid: uuid, major: 123, minor: 456) beaconRegion = CLBeaconRegion(beaconIdentityConstraint: beaconIdentityConstraint!, identifier: "com.example.myDeviceRegion") peripheralManager = CBPeripheralManager(delegate: self, queue: nil, options: nil) } } func peripheralManagerDidUpdateState(_ peripheral: CBPeripheralManager) { switch peripheral.state { case .poweredOn: startAdvertise() case .poweredOff: peripheralManager?.stopAdvertising() default: break } } func startAdvertise() { guard let beaconRegion = beaconRegion else { return } let peripheralData = beaconRegion.peripheralData(withMeasuredPower: nil) peripheralManager?.startAdvertising(((peripheralData as NSDictionary) as! [String: Any])) } func stopAdvertise() { peripheralManager?.stopAdvertising() } } In Line 10, I'm using CLBeaconidentityConstraint to constrain the beacon. Xcode says that this class is deprecated and suggests that we use CLBeaconIdentityCondition. But if I try to use it, Xcode says Cannot find type 'CLBeaconIdentityCondition' in scope I've just updated Xcode to 16.4. I still get the same error. So how do we use CLBeaconIdentityCondition to constrain the beacon? My macOS version is Sequoia 15.5. Thanks.

Hi, I am making a AI-Powered app that makes api requests to the openai API. However, for security, I set up a vercel backend that handles the API calls securely, while my frontend makes a call to my vercel-hosted https endpoint. Interestingly, whenever I try to make that call on my device, an iPhone, I get this error: Task <91AE4DE0-2845-4348-89B4-D3DD1CF51B65>.<10> finished with error [-1003] Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1003 "A server with the specified hostname could not be found."

Running my endpoint on terminal with curl also works as intended, as I see api key usages. But for some reason, on my project, it does not work. I've looked through almost every single post I could find online, but a lot all of the solutions are outdated and unhelpful. I'm willing to schedule a call, meeting, whatever to resolve this issue and get help more in depth as well.

Problem Description I'm encountering an issue with SCNTechnique where the clearColor setting is being ignored when multiple passes share the same depth buffer. The clear color always appears as the scene background, regardless of what value I set. The minimal project for reproducing the issue: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/30mx06xunh75wgl3t4sbd/SCNTechniqueCustomSymbols.zip?rlkey=yuehjtk7xh2pmdbetv2r8t2lx&st=b9uobpkp&dl=0 Problem Details In my SCNTechnique configuration, I have two passes that need to share the same depth buffer for proper occlusion handling: "passes": [ "box1_pass": [ "draw": "DRAW_SCENE", "includeCategoryMask": 1, "colorStates": [ "clear": true, "clearColor": "0 0 0 0" // Expecting transparent black ], "depthStates": [ "clear": true, "enableWrite": true ], "outputs": [ "depth": "box1_depth", "color": "box1_color" ], ], "box2_pass": [ "draw": "DRAW_SCENE", "includeCategoryMask": 2, "colorStates": [ "clear": true, "clearColor": "0 0 0 0" // Also expecting transparent black ], "depthStates": [ "clear": false, "enableWrite": false ], "outputs": [ "depth": "box1_depth", // Sharing the same depth buffer "color": "box2_color", ], ], "final_quad": [ "draw": "DRAW_QUAD", "metalVertexShader": "myVertexShader", "metalFragmentShader": "myFragmentShader", "inputs": [ "box1_color": "box1_color", "box2_color": "box2_color", ], "outputs": [ "color": "COLOR" ] ] ] And the metal shader used to display box1_color and box2_color with splitting: fragment half4 myFragmentShader(VertexOut in [[stage_in]], texture2d<half, access::sample> box1_color [[texture(0)]], texture2d<half, access::sample> box2_color [[texture(1)]]) { half4 color1 = box1_color.sample(s, in.texcoord); half4 color2 = box2_color.sample(s, in.texcoord); if (in.texcoord.x < 0.5) { return color1; } return color2; }; Expected Behavior Both passes should clear their color targets to transparent black (0, 0, 0, 0) The depth buffer should be shared between passes for proper occlusion Actual Behavior Both box1_color and box2_color targets contain the scene background instead of being cleared to transparent (see attached image) This happens even when I explicitly set clearColor: "0 0 0 0" for both passes Setting scene.background.contents = UIColor.clear makes the clearColor work as expected, but I need to keep the scene background for other purposes What I've Tried Setting different clearColor values - all are ignored when sharing depth buffer Using DRAW_NODE instead of DRAW_SCENE - didn't solve the issue Creating a separate pass to capture the background - the background still appears in the other passes Various combinations of clear flags and render orders Environment iOS/macOS, running with "My Mac (Designed for iPad)" Xcode 16.2 Question Is this a known limitation of SceneKit when passes share a depth buffer? Is there a workaround to achieve truly transparent clear colors while maintaining a shared depth buffer for occlusion testing? The core issue seems to be that SceneKit automatically renders the scene background in every DRAW_SCENE pass when a shared depth buffer is detected, overriding any clearColor settings. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I would like to clarify that my app is a Reader APP and a hybrid application built with Vue.js and Capacitor. To comply with Apple’s guidelines, I am not using any third-party SDKs for account management or payments. Instead, I am attempting to use the official StoreKit External Link Account API as required. To achieve this, I created a custom native Capacitor plugin in Swift, which calls the StoreKit 2 classes (SKStoreExternalLinkAccountRequest and SKStoreExternalLinkAccountViewController) to present the required modal before redirecting users to manage their accounts externally. However, I am encountering a technical issue: When building the app in Xcode 16 (with iOS Deployment Target set to 16+), the Swift compiler cannot find the StoreKit 2 classes (SKStoreExternalLinkAccountRequest and SKStoreExternalLinkAccountViewController). I have attached a screenshot showing the error in Xcode. Could you please clarify if there are any additional requirements or steps needed to access these StoreKit 2 APIs in a hybrid (Capacitor/Vue) app? Is there any limitation for hybrid apps, or is there a specific configuration needed in Xcode or the project to make these APIs available? I am committed to fully complying with Apple’s guidelines and want to ensure the best and safest experience for my users. Any guidance or documentation you can provide would be greatly appreciated. my plugin: my app in xcode - build failed I would really appreciate it if someone could help me.

Hello, I am trying to localize my app in other languages. Most of the text are automatically extracted by Xcode when creating a string catalog and running my app. However I realized few texts aren't extracted, hence I find a solution for most of them by adding For example I have some declared variable as var title: String = "Continue" Hence for them to be trigger I changed the String by LocalizedStringResource which gives var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Continue" But I still have an issue with some variables declared as an array with this for example @State private var genderOptions = ["Male", "Female", "Not Disclosed"] I tried many things however I don't success to make these arrays to be translated as the word here "Male", "Female" and "Not Disclosed". I have more array like that in my code and I am trying to find a solution for them to be extracted and be able to be localized Few things I tried that doesn't worked @State private var genderOptions : LocalizedStringResource = ["Male", "Female", "Not Disclosed"] @State private var genderOptions = [LocalizedStringResource("Male"), LocalizedStringResource("Female"), LocalizedStringResource("Not Disclosed")] Any idea more than welcome Thank guys

We just dropped support for iOS 16 in our app and migrated to the new properties on Locale to extract the language code, region, and script. However, after doing this we are seeing an issue where the script property is returning a value when the language has no script. Here is the initializer that we are using to populate the values. The identifier is coming from the preferredLanguages property that is found on Locale. init?(identifier: String) { let locale = Locale(identifier: identifier) guard let languageCode = locale.language.languageCode?.identifier else { return nil } language = languageCode region = locale.region?.identifier script = locale.language.script?.identifier } Whenever I inspect locale.language I see all of the correct values. However, when I inspect locale.language.script directly it is always returning Latn as the value. If I inspect the deprecated locale.scriptCode property it will return nil as expected. Here is an example from the debugger for en-AU. I also see the same for other languages such as en-AE, pt-BR. Since the language components show the script as nil, then I would expect locale.language.script?.identifier to also return nil.

I am trying to launch a fully immersive game from Unity on a SwiftUI view. The game is using Metal Rendering with Compositor Services. I added the unity Xcode project into the workspace, added the necessary bridge code. When I click on the button to call ufw?.showUnityWindow(), it does not start and I get the following in the console: AR session failed to start after 5 seconds. Is the app configured to use an immersive space?

We are migrating to swift 6 from swift 5 using Xcode 16.2. we are getting below errors in almost each of our source code files : Call to main actor-isolated initializer 'init(storyboard:bundle:)' in a synchronous non isolated context Main actor-isolated property 'delegate' can not be mutated from a nonisolated context Call to main actor-isolated instance method 'register(cell:)' in a synchronous nonisolated context Call to main actor-isolated instance method 'setup()' in a synchronous nonisolated context Few questions related to these compile errors. Some of our functions arguments have default value set but swift 6 does not allow to set any default values. This requires a lot of code changes throughout the project. This would be lot of source code re-write. Using annotations like @uncheck sendable , @Sendable on the class (Main actor) name, lot of functions within those classes , having inside some code which coming from other classes which also showing main thread issue even we using @uncheck sendable. There are so many compile errors, we are still seeing other than what we have listed here. Fixing these compile errors throughout our project, would be like a re-write of our whole application, which would take lot of time. In order for us to migrate efficiently, we have few questions where we need your help with. Below are the questions. Are there any ways we can bypass these errors using any keywords or any other way possible? Can Swift 5 and Swift 6 co-exist? so, we can slowly migrate over a period of time.

I'm working on enabling a content filter in my iOS app using NEFilterManager and NEFilterProviderConfiguration. The setup works perfectly in debug builds when running via Xcode, but fails on TestFlight builds with the following error: **Failed to save filter settings: permission denied ** **Here is my current implementation: ** (void)startContentFilter { NSUserDefaults *userDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]; [userDefaults synchronize]; [[NEFilterManager sharedManager] loadFromPreferencesWithCompletionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) { dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ if (error) { NSLog(@"Failed to load filter: %@", error.localizedDescription); [self showAlertWithTitle:@"Error" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Failed to load content filter: %@", error.localizedDescription]]; return; } NEFilterProviderConfiguration *filterConfig = [[NEFilterProviderConfiguration alloc] init]; filterConfig.filterSockets = YES; filterConfig.filterBrowsers = YES; NEFilterManager *manager = [NEFilterManager sharedManager]; manager.providerConfiguration = filterConfig; manager.enabled = YES; [manager saveToPreferencesWithCompletionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) { dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ if (error) { NSLog(@"Failed to save filter settings: %@", error.localizedDescription); [self showAlertWithTitle:@"Error" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Failed to save filter settings: %@", error.localizedDescription]]; } else { NSLog(@"Content filter enabled successfully!"); [self showAlertWithTitle:@"Success" message:@"Content filter enabled successfully!"]; } }); }]; }); }]; } **What I've tried: ** Ensured the com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension entitlement is set in both the app and system extension.

Are there special entitlements required for using NEFilterManager in production/TestFlight builds? Is MDM (Mobile Device Management) required to deploy apps using content filters? Has anyone successfully implemented NEFilterProviderConfiguration in production, and if so, how?

I'm developing a video capture app using AVFoundation, designed specifically for use on a boat pylon to record slalom water skiing. This setup involves considerable vibration. As you may know, the OIS that Apple began adding to lenses since the iPhone 7 is actually very problematic in high vibration circumstances, ironically creating very shaky video, whereas lenses without OIS produce perfectly stable video. Because of this, up until iPhone 14, the solution for my app was simply to use the Selfie lens, which did not have OIS. Starting with iPhone 14 through iPhone 16 (non-Pro models), technical specs suggest the selfie lens still does not include OIS. However, I’m still seeing the same kind of shaky video behavior I see on OIS-equipped lenses. The one hardware change I see in this camera module is the addition of PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus), so that is my best guess as to what is causing the unstable video. 1- Does that make any sense - that in high vibration settings, PDAF could create unstable video in the same way that OIS does? Or could it be something else that was changed between the iPhone 13 and 14 Selfie lens? Thinking that the issue was PDAF, I figured that if I enabled my app to set a Manual Focus level, that ought to circumvent PDAF (expecting that if a lens is manually focusing, it can’t also be autofocusing via PDAF). However, even with manual focus locked via AVCaptureDevice in my app, on the Selfie lens of an iPhone 16, the video still comes out very shaky, basically unusable. I also tested with the built-in Apple Camera app (using the press-and-hold to lock focus and exposure) and another 3rd party camera app to lock focus, all with the same results, so it's not that my app just isn't correctly doing manual focus. So I'm stuck with these questions: 2- Does the selfie camera on iPhones 14–16 use PDAF even when focus is set to locked/manual mode? 3- Is there any way in AVFoundation to disable or suppress PDAF during video recording (e.g., a flag, device format setting, or private API)? 4- Is PDAF behavior or suppression documented or controllable via AVCaptureDevice or any related class? 5- If no control of PDAF is available, are there any best practices for stabilizing or smoothing this effect programmatically? Note that I also have set my app to use the most aggressive form of stabilization available, so it defaults to .cinematicExtendedEnhanced, if that’s not available, then .cinematicExtended, etc. On the 16 Selfie lens, it is using .cinematicExtended. As an additional question: 6- Would those be the most appropriate stabilization settings for a high vibration environment, and if not, what would be best?

In iOS 18, CarPlay shows an error: “There was a problem loading this content” after playback starts. Audio works fine, but the Now Playing screen doesn’t load. I’m using MPPlayableContentManager. This worked fine in iOS 17. Anyone else seeing this error in iOS 18?

Environment→ ・Device: iPad 10th generation ・OS：**iOS18.3.2 We're using AVAudioPlayer to play a sound when a button is tapped. In our use case, this button can be tapped very frequently — roughly every 0.1 to 0.2 seconds. Each tap triggers the following function: var audioPlayer: AVAudioPlayer? func soundPlay(resource: String, type: String){ guard let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: resource, ofType: type) else { return } do { audioPlayer = try AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: URL(fileURLWithPath: path)) audioPlayer!.delegate = self try audioSession.setCategory(.playback) } catch { return } self.audioPlayer!.play() } The issue is that under high-frequency tapping (especially around 0.1–0.15s intervals), the app occasionally crashes. The crash does not occur every time, but it happens randomly — sometimes within 30 seconds, within 1 minute, or even 3 minutes of continuous tapping. Interestingly, adding a delay of 0.2 seconds between button taps seems to prevent the crash entirely. Delays shorter than 0.2 seconds (e.g.,0.15s,0.18s) still result in occasional crashes. My questions are: **Is this expected behavior from AVAudioPlayer or AVAudioSession? Could this be a known issue or a limitation in AVFoundation? Is there any documentation or guidance on handling frequent sound playback safely?** Any insights or recommendations on how to handle rapid, repeated audio playback more reliably would be appreciated.
