Can't reload widgets when app is in background and having an active AVAudioSession background audio playing.
As per WidgetKit TimelineProvider documentation: "When your app is in the foreground, has an active media session, or is using the standard location service, refreshes don’t count against the widget’s daily limit. For more information about media sessions and location services, see AVAudioSession and Configuring your app to use location services." That suggests that I should be able to reload my widget from the background with the most up to date details of the active media session. However, that doesn't appear to be working either when trying to reload all timelines or just a specific one. All other background processing is working fine in the app otherwise, including the media playback. Media session is started by the following code: do { try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(.playback, options: .mixWithOthers) print("AVAudioSession Category Playback OK") try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true) print("AVAudioSession is Active") print(AVAudioSession.sharedInstance()) } catch let error as NSError { print(error.localizedDescription) } let item = AVPlayerItem(url: URL(string: "https://cdn.smartersoft-group.com/various/pull-bell-short.mp3")!) self.queuePlayer = AVQueuePlayer(playerItem: item) self.queuePlayer?.volume = 0.0 self.playerLooper = AVPlayerLooper(player: self.queuePlayer!, templateItem: item) self.queuePlayer?.playImmediately(atRate: 1.0) self.queuePlayer?.volume = 2.0 Wondering if I am misunderstanding the documentation and it's not a supported use case or a bug.

Post gamepad HID events to the system
Wondering if it possible to post HID Gamepad events to the system similar to keyboard and mouse NSEvent or CGEvent. I am able to monitor gamepad events and get the usage value via IOHIDElementGetUsage (48 and 49 for the axis) and the value via IOHIDValueGetIntegerValue. I would like to generate these same events from code to simulate them without any actual controller attached to the system.

Low-Level Networking on watchOS 7
This is the only thing I found re: low-level networking on WatchOS: developer.apple.com/forums/thread/127232 Is this still the case? Both NWListener and NWConnection are working in Simulator but not on physical device. Is this expected? The below class works in the simulator but on physical device creating and starting the listener doesn't return anything in the stateUpdateHandler class Connect: ObservableObject {     static let sharedInstance = Connect()     private var talking: NWConnection?     private var listening: NWListener?     @Published var incomingUDPMessage: String = ""     func listenUDP(port: NWEndpoint.Port) {         print("IP Address:")         print(getIpAddress())         do {             self.listening = try NWListener(using: .tcp, on: port)             print("listening params")             print(self.listening?.service)             self.listening?.stateUpdateHandler = {(newState) in                 switch newState {                 case .ready:                 print("ready to listen")                 default:                 break                 }             }             self.listening?.newConnectionHandler = {(newConnection) in                 newConnection.stateUpdateHandler = {newState in                     switch newState {                     case .ready:                     print("new connection")                     self.receive(on: newConnection)                     default:                     break                     }                 }                 newConnection.start(queue: DispatchQueue(label: "new client"))                 }             } catch {         print("unable to create listener")         }         self.listening?.start(queue: .main)     }// END OF FUNC - LISTEN TO UDP     func receive(on connection: NWConnection) {         connection.receiveMessage { (data, context, isComplete, error) in             if let error = error {   print(error)                 return             }             if let data = data, !data.isEmpty {                 let incomingString = String(decoding: data, as: UTF8.self)                     print("Incoming String")       print(incomingString)                     self.listening?.cancel()             }         }     }// END OF FUNC - RECEIVE }// END OF CLASS - CONNECT
