On watchOS 11 when starting a workout session a widget appears automatically on the smart stack showing the pause or resume button. It´s a great feature, but my problem is that the duration is not showed correctly because the prepare phase of the workout and the pause / resume events are not taken into account calculating the duration. In my project I don´t use the workout builder. I have made a sample project with workout builder and there the duration is shown correctly. It would be great if this automatically appearing widget would also show the time correctly in case the workout builder is not used (prepare phase and pause resume events considered, otherwise it looks like a bug). Is there any way to opt out of this automatically appearing widget or could this be fixed? Any comments from an Apple engineer on this?

In iOS 18 (beta 1-4) when you set openAppWhenRun = false in your AppIntent of your live activity the perform function never gets called. In iOS 16 and 17 my live activities work. I have downloaded other apps and in their live activities any button tab which doesn´t open the app is also doing nothing in iOS 18. Has anyone got this working? Any comments from an Apple engineer on this?

Turn on address sanitizer on Xcode and use a real device and put a Test.mp3 file in the Xcode project. Then it will crash when you initialise a AVAudioPlayer with a mp3 file (with a wav file it works fine). I have made an entry in feedback assistent -> FB12425453. var player : AVAudioPlayer? func playSound() { if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "Test", withExtension: "mp3") { self.player = try? AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: url) // --> deallocation of non allocated memory problem --> with a "wav" file it works .... } }

I see a lot of crashes on iOS 17 beta regarding some problem of "Text To Speech". Does anybody has a clue why TTS crashes? Anybody else seeing the same problem?

As indicated on the website below the sandbox should now have a SHA-256 signature for new purchases starting on June 20, 2023 for apps running in iOS 16.6 and higher. I tried with iOS 17 beta, still getting a SHA-1 signed receipt. Has anybody managed to get a SHA-256 signed receipt?

Setting a voice for AVSpeechSynthesizer leads to an heap buffer overflow. Turn on address sanitizer in Xcode 14 beta and run the following code. Anybody else experiencing this problem, is there any workaround? let synthesizer = AVSpeechSynthesizer() var synthVoice : AVSpeechSynthesisVoice? func speak() { let voices = AVSpeechSynthesisVoice.speechVoices()           for voice in voices {       if voice.name == "Daniel" {    // select e.g. Daniel voice         synthVoice = voice       }     }           let utterance = AVSpeechUtterance(string: "Test 1 2 3")           if let synthVoice = synthVoice { utterance.voice = synthVoice     }           synthesizer.speak(utterance) // AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow }

Hello, I get a lot of crashlogs in the Xcode organizer on iOS 15 all related to dyld. Does anybody has the same issue or any idea what could be the problem? Attached is the Crashlog. Following error is shown: Kernel Triage: VM - Fault was interrupted VM - Didn't get back data for this file VM - Fault was interrupted file.crash

Hello, I have a dependent Apple Watch App and SKProductRequest doesn't return products on watchOS 8 beta. On WatchOS 6 and 7 it's fine, so the IAP setup is fine. The function "func productsRequest(_ request: SKProductsRequest, didReceive response: SKProductsResponse)" is called, but in the response all products are returned in the response.invalidProductIdentifiers and not in the response.products where they should be. Anybody seeing the same issue?

Hello, on Xcode 12 the iOS 14 simulator crashes after 10 mins adding constantly a polyline (location points) to the MKMapView. Running it on a iOS 13 simulated device has no problem. Following errors are shown when it crashes. Does anybody see the same problem? Is it only a simulator issue? Any feedback is appreciated ...

func didReceive(_ payloads: [MXMetricPayload]) { for metricPayload in payloads { if let backgroundExitReason =				 metricPayload.applicationExitMetrics?.backgroundExitData { let value = backgroundExitReason.cumulativeAppWatchdogExitCount Is the "cumulativeAppWatchdogExitCount" cumulated over the whole App lifetime or is this value only cumulated for the time period defined by the MXMetricPayload timestamps timeStampBegin & timeStampEnd?

Hello,I watch the WWDC video regarding keep iPhone and independent watch app (watchos 6) in sync. So I have made a simple cloudkit subscription on the Apple Watch on a record (watch os 6). 1) On the iPhone I modify the record, but when the iPhone is unlocked the notification is never send from cloudkit to the Apple Watch.If I modify the record directly on the cloudkit dashboard and2a) the iPhone is locked, then the silent notification is sent to the watch.2b) the iPhone is unlocked, then it is show directly on the iPhone. For user visible notification this behavior make sense, but in case of silent notification it doesn´t, because there is no way if you change settings on the iPhone App (iPhone unlocked), that you get a push to the watch (via the cloudkit subscription). Does anybody have the same problem or any way to get this working with cloudkit?

I haven't found any information about independent watch apps and support for in-app purchases or subscriptions? I don't see any watchOS support in StoreKit. Does anybody have more information about that?
