iOS 18 Core Data and CloudKit Sync Issue with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer
After upgrading to iOS 18, my Core Data stack using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer in a shared App Group container stopped syncing correctly. The persistent store configuration, which previously worked in iOS 17, now experiences delayed or missing sync updates between devices. Then the app freezes and writes terminal the same error detail (which I provided) too many times. The debug logs from the CloudKit mirroring delegate (NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate) show repetitive notifications but no updates in persistent history. Additionally, the persistent history tracking key appears unresponsive to local changes, causing transactions to fail in updating or syncing as expected. Key setup details: Core Data is set up within an App Group container using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey and NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationPostOptionKey options are set to true. Any insights into changes in iOS 18 Core Data or CloudKit handling with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer, especially around history tracking and sync delays, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
