App's Document directory not listed in Files app after iOS 18 update
Our app has these settings configured in its Info.plist: <key>LSSupportsOpeningDocumentsInPlace</key> <true/> <key>UIFileSharingEnabled</key> <true/> We have an Enterprise app, distributed via MDM, that was created approximately 6 years ago in Xcode 9 or 10. In iOS 17 the app's Document directory is correctly listed as a folder in the Files app under "On My iPhone". After updating a device to iOS 18, the app's Document directory is no longer listed under "On My iPhone". However, if you search for the app's name the search results does show the app's folder. If I then run the app from Xcode directly on to an iOS 18 device, the app's Document directory folder is not listed under "On My iPhone" in the Files app and searching for it no longer finds it. If run the app directly on to an iOS 17 device, the app's Document directory is, correctly, listed as before. I created a new test project in Xcode 15 and ran it on an ISO 18 device, but it works as expected, so it seems to have affected older projects. This is the exact same problem, occurring for other developers: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79025597/ios-apps-document-folder-no-longer-accessible-from-files-app-after-ios-18-updat
