NFC HCE CardSession.isSupported crash
I am getting report of a crash occurring, while doing a NFC HCE CardSession. The swift code is mostly the same as the example from the CardSession docs: @objc func deviceSupportsNFC (_ call: CAPPluginCall) { call.keepAlive = true let supportsNFCCallbackId = call.callbackId! Task() { guard NFCReaderSession.readingAvailable, CardSession.isSupported, // <-- line 86 await CardSession.isEligible else { print(TAG + " HCE not allowed/available") var support = JSObject() support["supported"] = false; let callback = bridge?.savedCall(withID: supportsNFCCallbackId) call.resolve(); callback?.resolve(support); return; } print(TAG + " HCE allowed") var support = JSObject() support["supported"] = true; let callback = bridge?.savedCall(withID: supportsNFCCallbackId) call.resolve(); callback?.resolve(support); } } Calling it from my plugin, to verify if (HCE) NFC is supported: if(await deviceInfoService.isIos()) { if(iosSupportEnabled === false) { console.log("NfcHceService:iOS but disabled"); return; } this.requiresManualTrigger = true; DfsNfcHce.deviceSupportsNFC((supportObj) => { const support = supportObj?.supported ?? false; this.hceSupported = support; }); } else { this.hceSupported = true; } The crash report i get via Crashlytics is below. It's specifying the error occurs at line 86 (marked it in my code above) The error seems to be in the CoreNFC (NFCHardwareManager areFeaturesSupported). # Crashlytics - Stack trace # Application: com.wodanbrothers.dyflexis # Platform: apple # Version: 2025.04.101356 (1744977392) # Issue: c3a293fbfa73c64f59f92c4b4cdfeb83 # Session: 5c64465c452c41e3abb1ba9f970b54c0_DNE_0_v2 # Date: Wed May 07 2025 07:56:11 GMT+0200 (Central European Summer Time) Fatal Exception: NSInvalidArgumentException 0 CoreFoundation 0x11a2ec __exceptionPreprocess 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x31a7c objc_exception_throw 2 CoreFoundation 0x18467c +[NSObject(NSObject) _copyDescription] 3 CoreFoundation 0x31b84 ___forwarding___ 4 CoreFoundation 0x314f0 _CF_forwarding_prep_0 5 CoreNFC 0x2ac40 -[NFCHardwareManager areFeaturesSupported:outError:] 6 CoreNFC 0x2b184 -[NFCHardwareManager areFeaturesSupported:expiry:completion:] 7 CoreNFC 0x2f9d8 block_destroy_helper.5 8 Dyflexis 0x5c08 closure #1 in DfsNfcHcePlugin.deviceSupportsNFC(_:) + 86 (DfsNfcHcePlugin.swift:86) 9 Dyflexis 0x7f8d <deduplicated_symbol> 10 Dyflexis 0x7725 specialized thunk for @escaping @isolated(any) @callee_guaranteed @async () -> (@out A) (<compiler-generated>) 11 Dyflexis 0x77fd <deduplicated_symbol> 12 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x65241 completeTaskWithClosure(swift::AsyncContext*, swift::SwiftError ...

Weatherkit API Historical 404 Errors Starting 3/5/25
We've been using the WeatherKit API for a few years now. Everything has been pretty stable. We'll periodically get 404 errors, but they usually disappear within a couple days. Starting March 5th we've again been getting 404 errors that slowly ramped up to March 20th and continued. We have had no code changes on our end, so something seems to have changed / broken on the server side of things. Here are some example API calls that are giving us a 404 error now https://weatherkit.apple.com/api/v1/weather/en/35.9981205/-78.8920444?dataSets=forecastDaily&dailyStart=2025-03-21T05:00:00Z&timezone=America/New_York&countryCode=US https://weatherkit.apple.com/api/v1/weather/en/41.4789363/-81.7404134?dataSets=forecastDaily&dailyStart=2025-03-21T04:56:00Z&timezone=America/New_York&countryCode=US Does anyone have any insights or information on this? Also if Apple is listening, an error more meaningful than 404 would be much much appreciated.

Message Filter Extension Not Triggering on iPhone 12 Pro (iOS 16.7) but Works on iPhone 11 (iOS 16.6)
Hi Team, We’re encountering a device-specific issue with our SMS Message Filter extension. The extension works as expected on an iPhone 11 running iOS 16.6, but it does not trigger on an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 16.7. Key Observations: The extension is implemented using ILMessageFilterExtension and calls messageFilterOffline(appGroupIdentifier:for:) from our shared library. The App Group is properly configured and accessible across the app and extension. The extension is enabled under Settings &gt; Messages &gt; Unknown &amp; Spam. There are no crashes or error logs reported on the affected device. The issue is consistently reproducible — it works on one device but not the other. We’re wondering if this could be a regression or a device-specific behavior change introduced in iOS 16.7. Has anyone encountered similar inconsistencies in Message Filter extensions across different iOS versions or device models? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Wrong Product.displayPrice?
I am using StoreKit 2 for my products and noticed that users from Ukraine (for example) receive a wrong Product.displayPrice. The App Store works with USD but shows the local currency UAH. Any chance to display the correct currency (USD)?

not getting stable release versions of some apps from the ios app store
I have been receiving beta software from the iPad App Store, despite not being enrolled in a beta program. Additionally, I do not have TestFlight or the Feedback app installed on my device. There are no certificates or profiles displayed either. I am using the App Store app that comes preinstalled on my device (note that I am not located in Europe). My iPad has been experiencing significant bugs, including numerous screen glitches and periods of sluggishness. Furthermore, numerous applications have crashed frequently. I was able to confirm that I was receiving beta software because the crash reports include beta identifier numbers. According to Apple documentation regarding analytic reports, a beta identifier will only be visible for beta applications. anyone know what could be going on or how to fix this?

Live Activity - ActivityState - case .dismissed
Hi everyone, I'm working with Live Activities using the ActivityKit(Activity), and I'm trying to find a way to detect when a user manually dismisses a Live Activity by swiping it away — either from the Lock Screen or the Dynamic Island. Currently, when a Live Activity ends, the activityState changes to .dismissed, which is defined as: /// The Live Activity ended and is no longer visible because a person or the system removed it. case dismissed This doesn’t allow me to determine whether the dismissal was triggered by the user or by the system. Is there any way — either through ActivityState, notifications, or another approach — to distinguish if a Live Activity was manually dismissed by the user vs. ended by the system? Thanks in advance!

SSMenuAgent consuming lots of CPU
My load average on a largely idle system is around 22, going up to 70 or so periodically; SSMenuAgent seems to be consuming lots of CPU (and, looking at spindump, it certainly seems busy), but... it's not happening on any other system whose screens I am observing. (Er, I know about load average limitations, the process is also consuming 70-98% CPU according to both top and Activity Monitor.) Since this machine (although idle) has our network extension, I'm trying to figure out if this is due to that, or of this is generally expected. Anyone?

/usr/bin/shortcuts no longer works in 14.7.5 (23H527) ?
I've been using /usr/bin/shortcuts for various tasks (eg. Quicksilver uses it to list and run shortcuts), and after updating from 14.7.4 to 14.7.5 the tool gets killed on startup. Eg. here is what it looks like in my shell: ❯ shortcuts list zsh: killed shortcuts list (And this is regardless of whether I have "full disk access" or "developer tools" toggled on or off for iTerm.) Looking at system logs it seems like the binary is missing an entitlement, which causes MACF / Gatekeeper to throw a fit: 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847576 kernel: mac_vnode_check_signature: /usr/bin/shortcuts: code signature validation failed fatally: When validating /usr/bin/shortcuts: in-kernel: com.apple.shortcuts.ShortcutsCommandLine disallowed without com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847582 kernel: validation of code signature failed through MACF policy: 1 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847583 kernel: check_signature[pid: 2475]: error = 1 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847587 kernel: proc 95761: load code signature error 4 for file "shortcuts" 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847613 kernel: exec_mach_imgact: not running binary "shortcuts" built against preview arm64e ABI 2025-04-12 18:38:48.855481 syspolicyd: (Security) SecTrustEvaluateIfNecessary 2025-04-12 18:38:48.857970 syspolicyd: [com.apple.syspolicy.exec:default] GK evaluateScanResult: 2, PST: (path: /usr/bin/shortcuts), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)), 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0evaluateScanResult: 2, PST: (path: /usr/bin/shortcuts), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)), 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0 I used Time Machine to compare the binary's entitlements between 14.7.4 and 14.7.5, and looks like in 14.7.5 /usr/bin/shortcuts indeed is missing the com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups entitlement that 14.7.4 had. The old binary had these two entitlements that the new one doesn't: [Key] com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups [Value] [Array] [String] group.com.apple.shortcuts [String] group.is.workflow.my.app [String] group.is.workflow.shortcuts [Key] com.apple.security.application-groups [Value] [Array] [String] group.com.apple.shortcuts [String] group.is.workflow.my.app [String] group.is.workflow.shortcuts Is there a sensible workaround for this (and by "sensible" I mean something that'd allow me to keep using the tool)? (I already asked this on the support forums but I figured I might as well ask here too)

Core Data crash while trying to merge
I'm looking for guidance how to mitigate this crash. It seems super deep inside Core Data' FRC fetchedObjects management. In my code, it's initiated by this viewContext.perform { [unowned self] in self.viewContext.mergeChanges(fromContextDidSave: notification) } which is directly followed by the stack trace below. Basically merging data from .NSManagedObjectContextDidSave notification from another NSManagedObjectContext. Nothing special, it works great for years, apart from these rare occurrences.

Matter request extension no long working for Thread devices
My app has been working fine until just recently, now it can not add Matter devices over Thread (Wifi commissioning still works). I didn't change anything on my side, so not sure if an update maybe changed things? In any case, reading through my logs (and i have the matter/thread debug profiles installed). it seems like the device is added to the thread network fine, and it looks to me like the phone is successfully commissioning the device to the Apple setup fabric, but then it seems to choke on this line and i don't think the device is actually added to the keychain/matter db, so it fails later on . error 12:18:03.369036-0700 homed [2610726604/1195614123(679130348)] failed to find metric hmmtrAccessoryMetricNameCommissioningAccessory to complete I can confirm the device does join my thread border router as its pingable, and it does not seem to be in setup mode anymore (light stops flashing), so i assume it thinks its commissioned. The device i'm pairing is a Onvis (matter certified) outlet to an espressif build of a OTBR. My phone is running 18.4.1 if that matters (no pun intended) . I have also cleared out existing Matter pairings from the phone, as well ensured the device was factory reset before every try.

Background Assets Extension and DeviceCheck
Hi, I have some questions regarding the Background Assets Extension and DeviceCheck framework. Goal: Ensure that only users who have purchased the app can access the server's API without any user authentication using for example DeviceCheck framework and within a Background Assets Extension. My app relies on external assets, which I'm loading using the Background Assets Extension. I'm trying to determine if it's possible to obtain a challenge from the server and send a DeviceCheck assertion during this process within the Background Assets Extension. So far, I only receive session-wide authentication challenges—specifically NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust in the Background Assets Extensio. I’ve tested with Basic Auth (NSURLAuthenticationMethodHTTPBasic) just for experimentation, but the delegate func backgroundDownload( _ download: BADownload, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge ) async -> (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) is never called with that authentication method. It seems task-specific challenges aren't coming through at all. Also, while the DCAppAttestService API appears to be available on macOS, DCAppAttestService.isSupported always returns false (in my testing), which suggests it's not actually supported on macOS. Can anyone confirm if that’s expected behavior?

Proper way to create an AppleEvent record descriptor from NSDictionary
When using NSScriptCommand, is there any way to create an NSAppleEventDescriptor from an NSDictionary with arbitrary keys without using keyASUserRecordFields? Am I correct in thinking that this constant is deprecated? I ask because there is still active documentation using it. Is there another way to return a record where the keys aren't known at compile-time?

Bonjour Connectivity Optimization
Hi folks, I'm building an iOS companion app to a local hosted server app (hosted on 0.0.0.0). The MacOS app locally connects to this server hosted, and I took the approach of advertising the server using a Daemon and BonjourwithTXT(for port) and then net service to resolve a local name. Unfortunately if there's not enough time given after the iPhone/iPad is plugged in (usb or ethernet), the app will cycle through attempts and disconnects many times before connecting and I'm trying to find a way to only connect when a viable en interface is available. I've run into a weird thing in which the en interface only becomes seen on the NWMonitor after multiple connection attempts have been made and failed. If I screen for en before connecting it simply never appears. Is there any way to handle this such that my app can intelligently wait for an en connection before trying to connect? Attaching my code although I have tried a few other setups but none has been perfect. func startMonitoringAndBrowse() { DebugLogger.shared.append("Starting Bonjour + Ethernet monitoring") if !browserStarted { let params = NWParameters.tcp params.includePeerToPeer = false params.requiredInterfaceType = .wiredEthernet browser = NWBrowser(for: .bonjourWithTXTRecord(type: "_mytcpapp._tcp", domain: nil), using: params) browser?.stateUpdateHandler = { state in if case .ready = state { DebugLogger.shared.append("Bonjour browser ready.") } } browser?.browseResultsChangedHandler = { results, _ in self.handleBrowseResults(results) } browser?.start(queue: .main) browserStarted = true } // Start monitoring for wired ethernet monitor = NWPathMonitor() monitor?.pathUpdateHandler = { path in let hasEthernet = path.availableInterfaces.contains { $0.type == .wiredEthernet } let ethernetInUse = path.usesInterfaceType(.wiredEthernet) DebugLogger.shared.append(""" NWPathMonitor: - Status: \(path.status) - Interfaces: \(path.availableInterfaces.map { "\($0.name)[\($0.type)]" }.joined(separator: ", ")) - Wired Ethernet: \(hasEthernet), In Use: \(ethernetInUse) """) self.tryToConnectIfReady() self.stopMonitoring() } monitor?.start(queue: monitorQueue) } // MARK: - Internal Logic private func handleBrowseResults(_ results: Set&lt;NWBrowser.Result&gt;) { guard !self.isResolving, !self.hasResolvedService else { return } for result in results { guard case let .bonjour(txtRecord) = result.metadata, let portString = txtRecord["actual_port"], let actualPort = Int(portString), case let .service(name, type, domain, _) = result.endpoint else { continue } DebugLogger.shared.append("Bonjour result — port: \(actualPort)") self.resolvedPort = actualPort self.isResolving = true self.resolveWithNetService(name: name, type: type, domain: domain) break } } private func resolveWithNetService(name: String, type: String, domain: String) { let netService = NetService(domain: domain, type: type, name: name) netService.delegate = self netService.includesPeerToPeer = false netService.resolve(withTimeout: 5.0) resolvingNetService = netService DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolving NetService: \(name).\(type)\(domain)") } private func tryToConnectIfReady() { guard hasResolvedService, let host = resolvedHost, let port = resolvedPort else { return } DebugLogger.shared.append("Attempting to connect: \(host):\(port)") discoveredIP = host discoveredPort = port connectionPublisher.send(.connecting(ip: host, port: port)) stopBrowsing() socketManager.connectToServer(ip: host, port: port) hasResolvedService = false } } // MARK: - NetServiceDelegate extension BonjourManager: NetServiceDelegate { func netServiceDidResolveAddress(_ sender: NetService) { guard let hostname = sender.hostName else { DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolved service with no hostname") return } DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolved NetService hostname: \(hostname)") resolvedHost = hostname isResolving = false hasResolvedService = true tryToConnectIfReady() } func netService(_ sender: NetService, didNotResolve errorDict: [String : NSNumber]) { DebugLogger.shared.append("NetService failed to resolve: \(errorDict)") } }

Applinks failing
Hello, We're facing an issue with app links failing and falling back to browser website journeys. Our apple-app-site-association file is hosted publicly and the app to app journeys have been working correctly up to very recently - we are trying to identify any potential network infra changes that could have impacted the Apple CDN being able to retrieve the apple-app-site-association file. We can see in the iPhone OS logs that the links cannot be verified by the swcd process, and using the app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1 api via curl can also see the CDN has no record of the AASA file. Due to the traffic being SSL and to a high volume enterprise site it is difficult for use to trace activity through anything other that the source IPs - we cannot filter on user-agent for "AASA-Bot/1.0.0" as breaking the SSL would be impactful due to the load. Is it possible to get a network range used by the Apple CDN to retrieve the AASA file as this would help us identify potential blocking behaviour? Thank you.

SwiftData and @Query to find all records for the current date of a multidatepicker (Set = [])
I’m trying to build a CRUD app using SwiftData, @Query model and multidatepicker. The data from a multidatepicker is stored or persists in SwiftData as Set = []. My current dilemma is how to use SwiftData and @Query model Predicate to find all records on the current date. I can’t find any SwiftData documentation or examples @Query using Set = []. My CRUD app should retrieve all records for the current date. Unfortunately, I don’t know the correct @Query model syntax for Set = [].

NFC HCE CardSession.isSupported crash
I am getting report of a crash occurring, while doing a NFC HCE CardSession. The swift code is mostly the same as the example from the CardSession docs: @objc func deviceSupportsNFC (_ call: CAPPluginCall) { call.keepAlive = true let supportsNFCCallbackId = call.callbackId! Task() { guard NFCReaderSession.readingAvailable, CardSession.isSupported, // <-- line 86 await CardSession.isEligible else { print(TAG + " HCE not allowed/available") var support = JSObject() support["supported"] = false; let callback = bridge?.savedCall(withID: supportsNFCCallbackId) call.resolve(); callback?.resolve(support); return; } print(TAG + " HCE allowed") var support = JSObject() support["supported"] = true; let callback = bridge?.savedCall(withID: supportsNFCCallbackId) call.resolve(); callback?.resolve(support); } } Calling it from my plugin, to verify if (HCE) NFC is supported: if(await deviceInfoService.isIos()) { if(iosSupportEnabled === false) { console.log("NfcHceService:iOS but disabled"); return; } this.requiresManualTrigger = true; DfsNfcHce.deviceSupportsNFC((supportObj) => { const support = supportObj?.supported ?? false; this.hceSupported = support; }); } else { this.hceSupported = true; } The crash report i get via Crashlytics is below.

Weatherkit API Historical 404 Errors Starting 3/5/25
We've been using the WeatherKit API for a few years now. Everything has been pretty stable. We'll periodically get 404 errors, but they usually disappear within a couple days. Starting March 5th we've again been getting 404 errors that slowly ramped up to March 20th and continued. We have had no code changes on our end, so something seems to have changed / broken on the server side of things. Here are some example API calls that are giving us a 404 error now https://weatherkit.apple.com/api/v1/weather/en/35.9981205/-78.8920444?dataSets=forecastDaily&dailyStart=2025-03-21T05:00:00Z&timezone=America/New_York&countryCode=US https://weatherkit.apple.com/api/v1/weather/en/41.4789363/-81.7404134?dataSets=forecastDaily&dailyStart=2025-03-21T04:56:00Z&timezone=America/New_York&countryCode=US Does anyone have any insights or information on this? Also if Apple is listening, an error more meaningful than 404 would be much much appreciated.

Message Filter Extension Not Triggering on iPhone 12 Pro (iOS 16.7) but Works on iPhone 11 (iOS 16.6)
Hi Team, We’re encountering a device-specific issue with our SMS Message Filter extension. The extension works as expected on an iPhone 11 running iOS 16.6, but it does not trigger on an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 16.7. Key Observations: The extension is implemented using ILMessageFilterExtension and calls messageFilterOffline(appGroupIdentifier:for:) from our shared library. The App Group is properly configured and accessible across the app and extension. The extension is enabled under Settings &gt; Messages &gt; Unknown &amp; Spam. There are no crashes or error logs reported on the affected device. The issue is consistently reproducible — it works on one device but not the other. We’re wondering if this could be a regression or a device-specific behavior change introduced in iOS 16.7. Has anyone encountered similar inconsistencies in Message Filter extensions across different iOS versions or device models? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Including Place URL in server API response?
Hello, Is it possible to retrieve URLs (the URL associated for the specified location) for the Place object when you query the Apple Maps Server APIs? They are available when you make a MKLocalSearch.Request() directly in Swift. We have both iOS and Android apps, and it's not currently possible to get the URLs on Android. Thanks!

not getting stable release versions of some apps from the ios app store
I have been receiving beta software from the iPad App Store, despite not being enrolled in a beta program. Additionally, I do not have TestFlight or the Feedback app installed on my device. There are no certificates or profiles displayed either. I am using the App Store app that comes preinstalled on my device (note that I am not located in Europe). My iPad has been experiencing significant bugs, including numerous screen glitches and periods of sluggishness. Furthermore, numerous applications have crashed frequently. I was able to confirm that I was receiving beta software because the crash reports include beta identifier numbers. According to Apple documentation regarding analytic reports, a beta identifier will only be visible for beta applications. anyone know what could be going on or how to fix this?

Live Activity - ActivityState - case .dismissed
Hi everyone, I'm working with Live Activities using the ActivityKit(Activity), and I'm trying to find a way to detect when a user manually dismisses a Live Activity by swiping it away — either from the Lock Screen or the Dynamic Island. Currently, when a Live Activity ends, the activityState changes to .dismissed, which is defined as: /// The Live Activity ended and is no longer visible because a person or the system removed it. case dismissed This doesn’t allow me to determine whether the dismissal was triggered by the user or by the system. Is there any way — either through ActivityState, notifications, or another approach — to distinguish if a Live Activity was manually dismissed by the user vs. ended by the system? Thanks in advance!

SSMenuAgent consuming lots of CPU
My load average on a largely idle system is around 22, going up to 70 or so periodically; SSMenuAgent seems to be consuming lots of CPU (and, looking at spindump, it certainly seems busy), but... it's not happening on any other system whose screens I am observing. (Er, I know about load average limitations, the process is also consuming 70-98% CPU according to both top and Activity Monitor.) Since this machine (although idle) has our network extension, I'm trying to figure out if this is due to that, or of this is generally expected. Anyone?

/usr/bin/shortcuts no longer works in 14.7.5 (23H527) ?
I've been using /usr/bin/shortcuts for various tasks (eg. Quicksilver uses it to list and run shortcuts), and after updating from 14.7.4 to 14.7.5 the tool gets killed on startup. Eg. here is what it looks like in my shell: ❯ shortcuts list zsh: killed shortcuts list (And this is regardless of whether I have "full disk access" or "developer tools" toggled on or off for iTerm.) Looking at system logs it seems like the binary is missing an entitlement, which causes MACF / Gatekeeper to throw a fit: 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847576 kernel: mac_vnode_check_signature: /usr/bin/shortcuts: code signature validation failed fatally: When validating /usr/bin/shortcuts: in-kernel: com.apple.shortcuts.ShortcutsCommandLine disallowed without com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847582 kernel: validation of code signature failed through MACF policy: 1 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847583 kernel: check_signature[pid: 2475]: error = 1 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847587 kernel: proc 95761: load code signature error 4 for file "shortcuts" 2025-04-12 18:38:48.847613 kernel: exec_mach_imgact: not running binary "shortcuts" built against preview arm64e ABI 2025-04-12 18:38:48.855481 syspolicyd: (Security) SecTrustEvaluateIfNecessary 2025-04-12 18:38:48.857970 syspolicyd: [com.apple.syspolicy.exec:default] GK evaluateScanResult: 2, PST: (path: /usr/bin/shortcuts), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)), 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0evaluateScanResult: 2, PST: (path: /usr/bin/shortcuts), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)), 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0 I used Time Machine to compare the binary's entitlements between 14.7.4 and 14.7.5, and looks like in 14.7.5 /usr/bin/shortcuts indeed is missing the com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups entitlement that 14.7.4 had. The old binary had these two entitlements that the new one doesn't: [Key] com.apple.private.security.restricted-application-groups [Value] [Array] [String] group.com.apple.shortcuts [String] group.is.workflow.my.app [String] group.is.workflow.shortcuts [Key] com.apple.security.application-groups [Value] [Array] [String] group.com.apple.shortcuts [String] group.is.workflow.my.app [String] group.is.workflow.shortcuts Is there a sensible workaround for this (and by "sensible" I mean something that'd allow me to keep using the tool)? (I already asked this on the support forums but I figured I might as well ask here too)

Core Data crash while trying to merge

Matter request extension no long working for Thread devices
My app has been working fine until just recently, now it can not add Matter devices over Thread (Wifi commissioning still works). I didn't change anything on my side, so not sure if an update maybe changed things? In any case, reading through my logs (and i have the matter/thread debug profiles installed). it seems like the device is added to the thread network fine, and it looks to me like the phone is successfully commissioning the device to the Apple setup fabric, but then it seems to choke on this line and i don't think the device is actually added to the keychain/matter db, so it fails later on . error 12:18:03.369036-0700 homed [2610726604/1195614123(679130348)] failed to find metric hmmtrAccessoryMetricNameCommissioningAccessory to complete I can confirm the device does join my thread border router as its pingable, and it does not seem to be in setup mode anymore (light stops flashing), so i assume it thinks its commissioned. The device i'm pairing is a Onvis (matter certified) outlet to an espressif build of a OTBR. My phone is running 18.4.1 if that matters (no pun intended) . I have also cleared out existing Matter pairings from the phone, as well ensured the device was factory reset before every try.

Background Assets Extension and DeviceCheck
Hi, I have some questions regarding the Background Assets Extension and DeviceCheck framework. Goal: Ensure that only users who have purchased the app can access the server's API without any user authentication using for example DeviceCheck framework and within a Background Assets Extension. My app relies on external assets, which I'm loading using the Background Assets Extension. I'm trying to determine if it's possible to obtain a challenge from the server and send a DeviceCheck assertion during this process within the Background Assets Extension. So far, I only receive session-wide authentication challenges—specifically NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust in the Background Assets Extensio. I’ve tested with Basic Auth (NSURLAuthenticationMethodHTTPBasic) just for experimentation, but the delegate func backgroundDownload( _ download: BADownload, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge ) async -> (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) is never called with that authentication method. It seems task-specific challenges aren't coming through at all. Also, while the DCAppAttestService API appears to be available on macOS, DCAppAttestService.isSupported always returns false (in my testing), which suggests it's not actually supported on macOS. Can anyone confirm if that’s expected behavior?

Proper way to create an AppleEvent record descriptor from NSDictionary
When using NSScriptCommand, is there any way to create an NSAppleEventDescriptor from an NSDictionary with arbitrary keys without using keyASUserRecordFields? Am I correct in thinking that this constant is deprecated? I ask because there is still active documentation using it. Is there another way to return a record where the keys aren't known at compile-time?

Bonjour Connectivity Optimization
Hi folks, I'm building an iOS companion app to a local hosted server app (hosted on 0.0.0.0). The MacOS app locally connects to this server hosted, and I took the approach of advertising the server using a Daemon and BonjourwithTXT(for port) and then net service to resolve a local name. Unfortunately if there's not enough time given after the iPhone/iPad is plugged in (usb or ethernet), the app will cycle through attempts and disconnects many times before connecting and I'm trying to find a way to only connect when a viable en interface is available. I've run into a weird thing in which the en interface only becomes seen on the NWMonitor after multiple connection attempts have been made and failed. If I screen for en before connecting it simply never appears. Is there any way to handle this such that my app can intelligently wait for an en connection before trying to connect? Attaching my code although I have tried a few other setups but none has been perfect. func startMonitoringAndBrowse() { DebugLogger.shared.append("Starting Bonjour + Ethernet monitoring") if !browserStarted { let params = NWParameters.tcp params.includePeerToPeer = false params.requiredInterfaceType = .wiredEthernet browser = NWBrowser(for: .bonjourWithTXTRecord(type: "_mytcpapp._tcp", domain: nil), using: params) browser?.stateUpdateHandler = { state in if case .ready = state { DebugLogger.shared.append("Bonjour browser ready.") } } browser?.browseResultsChangedHandler = { results, _ in self.handleBrowseResults(results) } browser?.start(queue: .main) browserStarted = true } // Start monitoring for wired ethernet monitor = NWPathMonitor() monitor?.pathUpdateHandler = { path in let hasEthernet = path.availableInterfaces.contains { $0.type == .wiredEthernet } let ethernetInUse = path.usesInterfaceType(.wiredEthernet) DebugLogger.shared.append(""" NWPathMonitor: - Status: \(path.status) - Interfaces: \(path.availableInterfaces.map { "\($0.name)[\($0.type)]" }.joined(separator: ", ")) - Wired Ethernet: \(hasEthernet), In Use: \(ethernetInUse) """) self.tryToConnectIfReady() self.stopMonitoring() } monitor?.start(queue: monitorQueue) } // MARK: - Internal Logic private func handleBrowseResults(_ results: Set&lt;NWBrowser.Result&gt;) { guard !self.isResolving, !self.hasResolvedService else { return } for result in results { guard case let .bonjour(txtRecord) = result.metadata, let portString = txtRecord["actual_port"], let actualPort = Int(portString), case let .service(name, type, domain, _) = result.endpoint else { continue } DebugLogger.shared.append("Bonjour result — port: \(actualPort)") self.resolvedPort = actualPort self.isResolving = true self.resolveWithNetService(name: name, type: type, domain: domain) break } } private func resolveWithNetService(name: String, type: String, domain: String) { let netService = NetService(domain: domain, type: type, name: name) netService.delegate = self netService.includesPeerToPeer = false netService.resolve(withTimeout: 5.0) resolvingNetService = netService DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolving NetService: \(name).\(type)\(domain)") } private func tryToConnectIfReady() { guard hasResolvedService, let host = resolvedHost, let port = resolvedPort else { return } DebugLogger.shared.append("Attempting to connect: \(host):\(port)") discoveredIP = host discoveredPort = port connectionPublisher.send(.connecting(ip: host, port: port)) stopBrowsing() socketManager.connectToServer(ip: host, port: port) hasResolvedService = false } } // MARK: - NetServiceDelegate extension BonjourManager: NetServiceDelegate { func netServiceDidResolveAddress(_ sender: NetService) { guard let hostname = sender.hostName else { DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolved service with no hostname") return } DebugLogger.shared.append("Resolved NetService hostname: \(hostname)") resolvedHost = hostname isResolving = false hasResolvedService = true tryToConnectIfReady() } func netService(_ sender: NetService, didNotResolve errorDict: [String : NSNumber]) { DebugLogger.shared.append("NetService failed to resolve: \(errorDict)") } }

Applinks failing
Hello, We're facing an issue with app links failing and falling back to browser website journeys. Our apple-app-site-association file is hosted publicly and the app to app journeys have been working correctly up to very recently - we are trying to identify any potential network infra changes that could have impacted the Apple CDN being able to retrieve the apple-app-site-association file. We can see in the iPhone OS logs that the links cannot be verified by the swcd process, and using the app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1 api via curl can also see the CDN has no record of the AASA file. Due to the traffic being SSL and to a high volume enterprise site it is difficult for use to trace activity through anything other that the source IPs - we cannot filter on user-agent for "AASA-Bot/1.0.0" as breaking the SSL would be impactful due to the load. Is it possible to get a network range used by the Apple CDN to retrieve the AASA file as this would help us identify potential blocking behaviour? Thank you.

SwiftData and @Query to find all records for the current date of a multidatepicker (Set = [])
I’m trying to build a CRUD app using SwiftData, @Query model and multidatepicker. The data from a multidatepicker is stored or persists in SwiftData as Set = []. My current dilemma is how to use SwiftData and @Query model Predicate to find all records on the current date. I can’t find any SwiftData documentation or examples @Query using Set = []. My CRUD app should retrieve all records for the current date. Unfortunately, I don’t know the correct @Query model syntax for Set = [].
