IIRC, the new photos highlights videos pick your best photos using Apple Intelligence.
Is there an API or metadata available to use AI and get the best photo out of e.g. 5 similar photos?

Currently, I've been able to completely block requests using a Content Filter Network extension.
Right now, I'm looking to build a Network Link Conditioner that applies to an individual app only.
The Network Link Conditioner allows selecting profiles with specific settings:
Downlink
Packages Dropped
Bandwidth
Delay
Uplink
Bandwidth
Packets dropped
Delay
My question
Is it possible to reproduce this behavior using a Network Extension and if so, which type of network extension should I use?
I'm super excited about the announcement of iPhone Mirroring on macOS.
Will there be a way to communicate with a connected device throughout an API? E.g., will we developers get a way to write automation or interact with the connected device via code?
Is it possible to mock the behavior of NWPathMonitor for a specific app?
The scenario I want to support
I've created an app called RocketSim, a developer tool for Xcode's Simulator. I've already created Airplane mode, which disables networking calls from URLSession from a specific bundle identifier app installed on the Simulator.
Now, I want to support blocking NWPathMonitor as well. I believe the Simulator uses macOS's NWPathMonitor and does not use any specific HTTP request or similar to determine the reachability state.
Is there a way I can make NWPathMonitor return unsatisfied when my 'airplane mode' is turned on? Potentially using a Network Extension?
The documentation for this API mentions:
The system uses the current representation and avoids transcoding, if possible.
What are the scenarios in which transcoding takes place?
The reason for asking is that we've had a user reaching out saying they selected a video file from their Photos app, which resulted in a decrease in size from ~110MB to 35MB. We find it unlikely it's transcoding-related, but we want to gain more insights into the possible scenarios.
Right after starting my Network Extension I see logs about it being stopped. This is unexpected, since I don't request a stop myself. See:
Logs
Secondly: I'm trying to build a Network Provider to stop any requests coming from a specific app. Am I correct I can do that using the NEFilterDataProvider without any filters configured?
override func startFilter(completionHandler: @escaping (Error?) -> Void) {
log.log(level: .debug, "startFilter NEW3")
completionHandler(nil)
}
I've been following these instructions and managed to get a development flow running: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/725805
However, my extension changes are only applied as follows:
Change the code
Remove the extension using OSSystemExtensionRequest.deactivationRequest
Restart Mac
If I don't do that, it seems that the old version of my extension keeps running. I confirmed this based on OSLogs that I added.
In other words: how can I ensure during development my latest code gets executed?
The execution of the command `xcrun simctl io recordVideo ...` works great from the terminal but fails somehow from the Mac app I'm building:DN - Local Port: 41227\nCouldn\'t create an asset writer for writing video frames:
allocationErrorError starting video recorder:
Error Domain=simctl.SimulatorError Code=2 \"We could not allocate necessary AV objects to perform the recording.\"I've tried setting permissions like screen recording, Developer Tools but without luck. Also, Sandbox enabled/disabled didn't make a difference.Any idea?
I'm having a very annoying issue where I'm unable to debug. Everytime I use po or print on an object I get:`Unable to determine byte size`Any idea how to fix this?
