Hi Folks, starting with iOS18 and using Xcode16, accessing fetchedProperties results in an error. I identified the issue to occur as soon as the initialization of a fetched property with external binary data storage starts. Console output during debugging: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'This expression has evaluation disabled' *** First throw call stack: [...] libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type NSException Console output when trying to "print" the item via the contact menu of the debugger: Printing description of variable: error: error: Execution was interrupted, reason: internal ObjC exception breakpoint(-6).. The process has been returned to the state before expression evaluation. Message from debugger: killed The identical code works with iOS before iOS 18 (same for iPadOS 18). Does anyone observed a similar issue and figured out a solution already? Cheers, folox

Hello Apple We have been facing lot of SSL issues when we are connecting to iOS devices with OS 17.5.1, 7.6.1 and 18. Need more clarification on the latest parameters to be used on the server side like -> TLS Version and Cipher Suites Please do update us on the above. Error message-> "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made."

since having updated my iPad with subject title update, I can no longer type French accents with my magic keyboard. The toggle between English and French is there, the actual key type is no longer available.

With the newest iPad Pro and iPad Air's, the front facing camera sits on the long horizontal edge, which is different from the previous version which had the camera on the shorter top edge. We have an app that needs to put a UI item near the camera. Is there a way of detecting where the front facing camera is on iOS? I have tried doing simple resolution checks, i.e, if width == ipadProWidth || width == ipadAirWidth { do2024iPadProLayout() } else { doStandardiPadLayout() } But this doesn't feel like the nicest way to do this check, because it's liable to break moving forward, and theres the possibility Apple release more devices with the camera on the horizontal edge. Any help here is appreciated!

I have a text-to-speech app that generates speech using non-Apple technology. My users are requesting to use it for phone and FaceTime calls. Is there any way I can play generated audio through a phone or FaceTime call?

I have a text to speech assisted-audio-communication (AAC) app that uses both Apple and non-Apple technologies for voice synthesis. Apple's marketing page for "Live Speech" says that, when "Live Speech" is turned on, that AAC apps can provide the text to be read. I can't see how to do this. Is it possible?

I have been investigating a recent breakage where apps being installed via Testflight are crashing on launch with no helpful crash reports, or even console-accessible logging. More detail: The app launches just fine on iPadOS 18 beta (ipad) but the same build doesn't work on iPadOS 17.6.1 At my wit's end, I checked the entire build environment - was I using XCode beta still somewhere? Well, in the XCode Cloud workflow, I had selected "Release" for the latest released version of XCode. And MUCH to my surprise, I see that XCode 16 RC is selected. Why? That's not released yet... Anyway, this is just a friendly PSA to check your XCode Cloud workflows if you choose "release" when new XCode releases are upcoming... or peg your XCode Cloud environment versions. And I still don't have an explanation why Testflight XCode 16 RC is producing builds that crash on iPadOS 17.6.1 (for us) but not the latest iPadOS 18 public beta...

Before iPadOS 18, I was using hidesBottomBarWhenPushed, and it worked beautifully. Now, it's broken/not working. How are we supposed to hide the new tab bar nowadays?

Hello, Is anyone experiencing devices on OS 17 disconnecting from Xcode 15 and 16 Beta? I remember there were a lot of past conversations around the time when iOS 17 released but it seems to still be happening even after using Xcode 16 beta. Re-pairing devices and rebooting the hosts appear to fix it temporarily. I discovered that killing the remoted process also allows xcode to reconnect to the devices. Using Xcode 16's devicectl also doesn't work. I have my devices connected to a USB Hub and to multiple devices. The odd thing is I have iOS 16 devices connected and those don't disconnect. I believe iOS 17 introduced a new coredevice stack to connect but has anyone found a fix for it or have any recommendations? TN3158 isn't relevant in my situation because VPN and Packet filtering is not in use and I filed feedback with Apple but they have't responded in a long time.

As iPadOS 18 shows Tab Bar on top (tvOS'esq), can someone please tell me what changes do I need to make to get tab bar shown as a regular one (Pre iPadOS 18 style)? Tab bar being at the bottom is easily accessible. And, it being on top needs too much of hands movement. That being on top is is occupying, in a way, more screen real estate. Any ideas appreciated. Thank you.

-Environment iPad：10th、iOS：17.6.1、Printer：EPSON PX-S730 -Question Is this phenomenon due to iOS specifications? Restarting the iPad solves the problem, but I don't think it's best practice to restart it every time you reproduce it. Please let me know if you have a good solution. -Problem I am developing a print preview screen using AirPrint's print method. If you submit a print job using AirPrint on an iPad while the printer is turned off and then cancel it, the print center remains on the app switcher. After that, when I turned on the printer, I was no longer able to print using AirPrint on my iPad. When using AirPrint's API "print" and when printing by launching AirPrint from Safari, we have confirmed the same behavior in both cases. -How to reproduce Turn off the printer Print from iPad to printer using AirPrint Launch the print center from the app switcher, cancel the print job, and set the number of print jobs to 0. When you start the app switcher, the Print Center app remains. In step 4, turn on the printer and print from the iPad to the printer using AirPrint. When you start Print Center from the app switcher, the print job status becomes "Waiting" and the print job is not executed. -Expected result When there are no print jobs on the print center, the print center is closed on the app switcher. You can print from your iPad to the printer using AirPrint, and then print from the printer. -Actual results When there are no print jobs on the print center, the print center remains on the app switcher without being closed. In the above situation, when printing from the iPad to the printer using AirPrint, the printer does not print. When I start the print center, the print job status is "Waiting" and is queued. -Code printInfo.jobName = "Print Job" printController.printInfo = printInfo let pdfURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "sample", withExtension: "pdf")! printController.printingItem = pdfURL let printer = UIPrinter(url: printerUrl) printController.print(to: printer, completionHandler: { [self] printController, completed, error in if(error != nil){ print("error"). }else if completed{ print("completed") //this scenario handles completion response }else{ print("cancel") } }) -Link of API used Apple Developer-AirPrint-print -Similar inquiries Apple Developer Forum - Print Center on my iPhone shows a pending document to print and I can't get rid of it

Hello, i have an error with iCloud that says 'can't communicate with the server'. Thanks!

I have an iPad app using the new UITabBarController on iPadOS18, which is suffering from a new issue from the new layout. Within my tabs, I have a UISplitViewController, with a 2 column layout. If I load the app, it works ok, but if I put the app in the background, and then bring it to foreground, the navigation bar buttons and title just disappear from the splitView controller’s primary view controller. Before going to background: After coming back from background: I also get the following layout issues posted in the debugger consoler: Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints. Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want. Try this: (1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect; (2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it.

It'll make my app pretty unusable if the bar button items just disappear every time the user puts the app in the background and then foregrounds the app.

Under iPadOS 18, I would like the main content to remain the same size regardless of whether the tab bar is hidden or visible. Is there an easy way to do this?

Having below issues with Navigation bar in UISplitViewController Primary View Controller, Navigation title is not showing with new Elevated Tab bar. Navigation right bar button is not showing. Navigation bar height issue with Primary and Secondary View Working fine in iPad OS 17. SplitViewController preferred display mode is preferredDisplayMode = UISplitViewController.DisplayMode.oneBesideSecondary Tested with Xcode 16.1 Beta and Xcode 16.0 Beta 6 iPad OS 18.1 iPadOS 17.5

If you use the new TabView in conjunction with ".tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable)" and have a NavigationSplitView in the tabs, the result is a very confusing user experience. When the TabView is displayed as tabs, there are two sidebar buttons. The left one closes/opens the sidebar of the view of the selected tab. The sidebar button of the Top-TabView closes/opens the sidebar for customizing the tabbar. However, this sidebar overlays the sidebar of the selected tab. To be able to use the underlying sidebar again, the user must actively close the TabView sidebar again (turn it into the top tabbar) Has anyone found ways to improve this behavior, or is this wrong by design? My expected behavior would be: If you use the new TabView with ".tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable)" and have a two column NavigationSplitView in a tab, it automatically becomes a three column view when the top tabbar becomes a sidebar. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { Tab("Home", systemImage: "house") { HomeView() } Tab("Settings", systemImage: "gearshape") { Text("Settings") } } .tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable) } } enum TabItem: String, Identifiable, CaseIterable { case first case second case third var id: String { rawValue } var content: String { rawValue } } struct HomeView: View { @State var selectedTab: String? var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(TabItem.allCases, selection: $selectedTab) { item in Text(item.content) } } detail: { if let selectedTab { Text("Detail: \(selectedTab)") } else { Text("Select an item") } } } }

In iOS 18, the tab bar has been moved to the top on iPad. How can I hide this tab bar? Using TabBarController.tabBar.isHidden = true isn't working.

PDFKit PDFPage.characterBounds(at: Int) is returning incorrect coordinates with iOS 18 beta 4 and later / Xcode 16 beta 4. It worked fine in iOS 17 and earlier (after showing the same issue during the early iOS 17 beta cycle) It breaks critical functionality that my app relies on. I have filed feedback (FB14843671). So far no changes in the latest betas. iOS release date is approaching fast! Anybody having the same issue? Any workaround available?

I have a UIViewController that presents a UIPrintInteractionController when a user selects the print button on the UI. The problem is starting in iOS 18 (currently using beta 7) when the print controller is presented the UIViewController's viewWillAppear() is being called. This did not happen in earlier iOS releases and is causing unwanted behavior in the app. Is this a bug or will this be the behavior going forward?

Hi, After installing iPadOS18 Beta3 on my iPad 7th gen, the default camera app no ​​longer detects QR codes. I tried updating to Beta7, but the issue remained. Also, third-party apps that use AVCaptureMetadataOutput in AVFoundation Framework to detect QR codes also no longer work. You can reproduce the issue by running default camera app or the AVFoundation sample code from the Apple developer site on iPad 7th gen (iPadOS18Beta installed). https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avfoundation/capture_setup/avcambarcode_detecting_barcodes_and_faces Has anyone else experienced this issue? I would like to know if this issue occurs on other iPad models as well. This is similar to the following issue that previously occurred with iPadOS 17.4. https://support.apple.com/en-lamr/118614 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/748092
