Yesterday I upgraded to IOS 18.1 RC, after the update, I went to the privacy and security section, then went back out and then back in, and a gray background appeared on the selected item, all the items in privacy Privacy and security are all grayed out when I go back in and then click back in. I've updated and reinstalled, but the problem still persists. Does anyone else have the same problem? I use Iphone 15PM, Thanks All!

My app supports only iPhone mode, and when it runs on an iPad device, it normally displays compatible iPhone mode. But my code as long as you use the AVPictureInPictureController, open the picture in picture, will lead to get [UIScreen mainScreen] bounds became the real width and height, so the UI disorder; How should my application be compatible with this?

Hi there, I'm having an app developed in the last weeks, and recently I'm testing it on iOS 18. This following piece of UI code has diff between iOS 18 and iOS version lower than 18. I have a NavigationStack in my homeView, and the display difference is for its toolbar in one destination. I've tried both approaches in code, with header variable or ToolbarItemGroup used directly in the toolbar modifier, both would result in there being a spacer between the body VStack and toolbar, which is unexpected. Here's the code and a demo screenshot. var body: some View { // header VStack(alignment: .leading) { notificationView( iconKey: "ErrorCircle", contentKey: "receivedFile.notification.noNetwork.content" ) fileListView } .toolbar { // header ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .principal) { Button { dismiss() } label: { Image(systemName: "chevron.backward") } .background(Color.yellow) Spacer() Text(LocalizedStringKey("title")) .font( .system(size: 17) .weight(.semibold) ) .background(Color.yellow) Spacer() Button { print("click") } label: { Text("Click") } .background(Color.yellow) } } .navigationBarBackButtonHidden() .onAppear { refreshAllFiles() } } @ToolbarContentBuilder private var header: some ToolbarContent { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarLeading) { Button { dismiss() } label: { Image(systemName: "chevron.backward") } .background(Color.yellow) } ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) { Text(LocalizedStringKey("receivedFileList.title")) .font( .system(size: 17) .weight(.semibold) ) .background(Color.yellow) } ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button { print("click for jumping") } label: { Text("Click for jumping") } .background(Color.yellow) } } Hope I can get some help from the forum on the usage. If not fixable, may I know if this is a known issue that would be fixed in the next upgrades.

Hi, I have a question regarding reading the configuration of a managed app deployed via an MDM system. The application has an Action Extension and can receive shared files via this extension. The problem I am facing is that I can read the managed configuration in the host app by accessing the UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: "com.apple.configuration.managed") dictionary. With this, I can configure the host app. However, I am unable to read this configuration key in the Action Extension part of the application. My question is whether there is any possibility to read the managed configuration even in the extension. So far, I have been unable to figure out how to read it. I found the sample code, but it was not very helpful since it is very basic and does not deal with extensions at all. Any hints are appreciated.

I have an iOS and watchOS app where both can run independently, I am not using WatchConnectivity to send data back and fourth. The issue I'm having is that if I schedule a local notification on the watch and the phone is unlocked, it will not show on the watch for about 10-15 seconds. If I uninstall the iOS app or have the phone locked, it will show immediately on the watch. To my understanding, this is somewhat the expected functionality but is there a way to bypass it? My app is a timer app and it really should not have a delay.

The main view contains a Form with multiple Sections, including TextFields and NavigationLinks. I used an @FocusState variable to automatically pop up the keyboard when entering the main view, making it easier for users to input content directly in the TextField. However, when I keep the keyboard open and click a NavigationLink in the Section to enter a child view, I can't find a way to automatically dismiss the keyboard upon entering the child view. I've seen several official Apple apps, like Reminders, achieve this. Not dismissing the keyboard causes it to automatically pop up again when returning to the main view, along with triggering a "Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints" error in the console. I asked GPT for help, but the suggestions, like using simultaneousGesture or adding isActive to the NavigationLink (which might be deprecated), haven't worked. Has anyone in iOS development encountered this issue?

My iPhone 15 Pro is from Hong Kong (China). I am outside of China and Asia in general. I have never been to China myself and the iPhone was activated in another country. And it is not the EU. My iPhone's language, Siri and region settings are changed to US English. Updated to iOS 18.1 RC. But Apple Intelligence doesn't show up in the Siri settings.

I am trying to build my app with Xcode16 on iOS18, once app is going background PIP is enable but whenever app is coming back to foreground by tapping on PIP, black screen appears(video is playing in background). It only happening with build created by Xcode16 and running on iOS18. It working fine with build created by Xcode15.4. My first thought on it that somehow PIP is not stoping.

I have enabled Developer mode on the iPhone and paired my device. I see it as an option on Xcode, but I am unable to run any simulations on my device. When I go into Settings->General->VPN & Device Management, I only see an option for VPN, not for my Mac. What do I need to do to be able to run my app on my iPhone? Thank you

Hello, Is there a way to retrieve the dark mode and the tinted app icons using personal iOS device, or alternatively through an available API? I wasn't able to find anything online or on the existing form posts. I tried using: xcrun devicectl device info appIcon But this command only returns a light mode icon for an app and I didn't see any options/flags for dark mode or tinted icons Software Version info: XCode - 16 MacOS 15.1 Beta (24B5070a) devicectl - 397.21 xcrun - version 70, platform version 15.0 Let me know if any other info would be helpful. Thanks!

Hello, using UIDocumentPickerViewController and startAccessingSecurityScopedResource(), I can access to a directory on iOS using Bookmark data, but when I save a Bookmark data, security-scoped bookmark not survive quitting the app and re-launching it. I used the Apple example here but my app doesn't appear in Settings > Privacy > Files and Folders ? Security-scoped bookmark is-it available on iOS ? Thanks.

I’m a bit confused about the practicality and support for Umbrella frameworks in iOS. I’ve read that they’re not supported, but I’ve come across a few tutorials where people are developing Umbrella frameworks. Can anyone provide some insight on this?

I frequently use my iPad to develop remotely in VSCode or prototype designs in Figma. This is currently all done in the browser. Given that many of these experiences rely heavily on the keyboard I was hoping there would be a solution to make a keyboard persistent on the screen, or at least a few hot keys. Is it possible for me to develop an accessibility tool that could stay persistent on the screen? Perhaps something that would talk with assistive touch? Or is that in Apple’s no no square?

Incremental builds using xcodebuild are very slow, around 3x slower when compared to the same build using Xcode. Recently, I discovered that CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO" fixed the issue, but of course, I can't then run iOS app. It seems like automatic signing using xcodebuild is somehow broken. Therefore, I think I could set CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO" and sign it manually later. However, I'm not sure how to do that. I checked what Xcode does and it's: /usr/bin/codesign --force --sign - --entitlements /Users/wkulik/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/XYZ-hblnhsksxjrctzekqmlevcflnsji/Build/Intermediates.noindex/XYZ.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/XYZ.build/XYZ.app.xcent --timestamp\=none --generate-entitlement-der /Users/wkulik/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/XYZ-hblnhsksxjrctzekqmlevcflnsji/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/XYZ.app However, if I run xcodebuild with disabled signing I don't have XYZ.app.xcent required by this command. I also tried: codesign --force --deep --sign "Apple Development: John Snow (XYZ)" /Users/wkulik/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/XYZ-hblnhsksxjrctzekqmlevcflnsji/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/XYZ.app but the app immediately terminates (the same way like when unsigned). Could anyone help with that?

I have a website that uses tables for listing our certifications. A customer is complaining that on their browser, the contents of the tables are being viewed upside down. They should be showing vertically. This is not happening on any other browser that I have tested. Has anyone had this issue and what did you do to fix it. https://www.mccampbell.com/statement.php Thank you for your help. Much appreciated. Lynda

Hello, I am planning to create an app that can transfer files to hardware devices via WiFi. With devices like GoPro, I believe the typical setup involves the GoPro creating a WiFi hotspot to which the iOS app connects, allowing file transfers. But this setup establishes a 1:1 connection between the app and the hardware. To support multiple hardware devices simultaneously, I am considering reversing this setup: the iOS device would create a personal hotspot, and the hardware devices would connect to it. However, I have concerns about this approach: Reliability: I have read that the personal hotspot feature on iOS devices can be unreliable, especially with non-Apple devices, which tend to disconnect frequently. Manual Setup: There is no API to programmatically create the personal hotspot, so users would have to enable it manually in the Settings. I can use isIdleTimerDisabled to prevent the iOS screen from going to sleep, which might help with disconnection issues. Aside from this, are there other things I can do to ensure a stable connection? Given my limited experience with hardware connections, I am uncertain if having the iOS device act as the WiFi access point is a good design. Any advice or alternative solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I found a post that submitted the same issue, but the solution was not made public. I didn't get a reply to my comment at the bottom of the post, so I'm pasting the content of the post here. I am a developer working on iOS apps. I would like to report an issue occurring in iOS 18 beta and iOS 18.1 beta. Our company has two Enterprise accounts, and we are developing two apps: A app / TeamId: ABCDEFG B app / TeamId: HIJKLMN When we distribute these apps, which have different TeamIds, and install them on a device running iOS 18 beta, both apps install successfully, but only one app will run. (Other app crashed immediately after being launched.) This issue does not occur on versions prior to iOS 18. I would like to know if this is a problem that will be resolved in future updates, or if it is a policy change.

Hello, I’m working on a program that analyzes video files frame by frame to detect human poses in each frame. However, during the process of reading observations from the stream, the analysis frequently stops with the following error: [LOG_ERROR] /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/MediaAnalysis/VideoProcessing/VCPHumanPoseImageRequest.mm[85]: code -18 [LOG_ERROR] /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/MediaAnalysis/VideoProcessing/VCPHumanPoseImageRequest.mm[178]: code -18 The error was caught and printed using a do-catch block, and here is the output: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-18 "Error: failed to processImage" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Error: failed to processImage} While the do-catch block helps prevent the app from crashing, the frames following the error cannot be analyzed. I’m hoping to understand the cause of this error, or find a way to skip the problematic frames and continue analyzing the subsequent ones. My development environment is Xcode Version 16.0 (16A242d) and iOS 18.0. Thank you for your help. (Attaching my code below.) let videoProcessor = VideoProcessor(videoURL) let bodyPoseRequest = DetectHumanBodyPoseRequest() let asset = AVURLAsset(url: videoURL) let videoTrack = try await asset.loadTracks(withMediaType: .video).first let bodyPoseStream = try await videoProcessor.addRequest(bodyPoseRequest) videoProcessor.startAnalysis() do { for try await observations in bodyPoseStream { guard let observation = observations.first else { continue } if let timeRange = observation.timeRange { /// do something... } } } catch { print("\(error.localizedDescription)") }

I am creating a VoIP application. The VoIP application needs to send and receive RTP packets at 20 ms intervals. The application calls sendto() of the Socket API at 20 ms intervals, but the iPhone buffers the send data inside iOS and then sends RTP packets in batches at 1 second intervals. (I captured the sned packets of iPhone with rvctl and confirmed this. please reffer "Sending at 1 second intervals.png" for detail) Similarly, other devices send RTP packets to the iPhone at 20 millisecond intervals, but the iPhone only receives them at 1 second intervals. (please reffer "Receiving at 1 second intervals.png" for detail) Why is this? If the cause of the delay is in the Wi-Fi protocol and the cause can be found from sysdiagnose, please tell me the search key for sysdiagnose that shows the cause of the delay and the meaning of the corresponding log. I uploaded sysdiagnose and result of lan capture to below. [sysdiagnose and lan capture] https://drive.google.com/file/d/149OPmePAF4hnZj6NeSnKc5NizfitPQDS/view?usp=sharing And, the start and end times, packet number in the lan capture of the call shown in the png example are below Start time; 13:57:22.349608/packet number; 948 End time; 13:57:37.482874/packet number; 2583
