Hello, I am working on an AR application using the IPad Pro 5th gen and I need to have more informations about the precision of the accelerometer and the gyroscope about this IPad Pro. If anyone has informations about it or know how to get those informations, it will help me a lot !

Is there a possibility to develop an iOS app that is connected to an external camera connected through lightning or USB-C port and receives video stream. We need to be able to get this video stream even while the app is in the background or if the phone is locked. We could have the camera connected wirelessly through the lightning port. Is there an available library or a sample app featuring such functionalities. Thanks.

I'm trying to create a productivity app that utilizes gyroscope data to detect when the phone is picked up. However, in my code, it seems that after I detect the phone flipping over, gyro updates become unavailable and I start receiving the sentinel value instead, which causes the code to not work properly. What happens is that I will receive gyro updates until faceUp changes value, at which point gyroData becomes unavailable. let dTheta = Double(self.manager.gyroData?.rotationRate.y ?? 0) if dTheta > 0.1 || dTheta < -0.1 { totalRotation = totalRotation + dTheta } tO = Date.now if(totalRotation >= 0.9 || totalRotation <= -0.9) { //Block that detects a phone flip if faceUp == true { faceUp = false } else if faceUp == false { faceUp = true stopText = "Timer paused at \(currentTimeRemaining)" } totalRotation = 0 } guard shouldProceed() else { return } currentTimeRemaining = dispTime(mustRedo: mustRedo) keepScreenOn() let hours = job.hours let mins = job.mins let secs = job.seconds if mins == 0 && hours == 0 { minsDone = true } if secs == 0 && mins == 0 { secsDone = true } if mins == 0 && minsDone == false { job.setHours(new: (hours-1)) job.setMins(new: 59) } if job.seconds == 0 && secsDone == false{ job.setMins(new: (mins-1)) job.setSeconds(new: 59) } if hours == 0 && minsDone == true && secsDone == true { workTimeActive = false //stopTimer() } else { job.setSeconds(new: job.seconds-1) } if manager.isGyroActive == false {print("not active tag 3")} currentTimeRemaining = dispTime(mustRedo: mustRedo) private func keepScreenOn() { UIApplication.shared.isIdleTimerDisabled = true } private func shouldProceed() -> Bool{ if faceUp == true { if manager.isGyroActive == false {print("not active tag 4")} return false } return true }

Hello All, I am building an application that involves the usage of accelerometer data. How I handle the data will change based on the accelerometer specifications. I have been looking all over for the accelerometer specifications for the iPhone13 (the iPhone that I am testing my application on), but I cannot find it anywhere. Is it public knowledge?

Hi! Can anyone help me? According to the compatibility list, I am supposed to be able to connect both of my devices ( sidecar), however whenever I use Bluetooth to connect both of them, my iPad displays a message saying that my Macbook is not supported. I've already tried updating both devices to the latest updates, still now working... What am I doing wrong?

Hey, I am writing to you on behalf of a startup company that is developing a device to protect iPhone cameras from the negative effects of vibrations, such as those generated while riding a motorcycle. We are currently in the research phase of our project and are seeking information on the specific types of vibrations that can be harmful to iPhone devices. We have found some information that suggests that micro-vibrations with frequencies between 1 and 100 Hz can be particularly damaging. Would you be able to provide us with any additional information on this topic? Any insights you can share would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I am trying to retrieve the crash logs from the iPhone programatically. The use case is, we are testing many different apps on an iPhone as part of the CI/CD process. As part to this CI/CD process, when an app crashes, we want to retrieve the crash logs from the iPhone and send a notification to the development team with the crash log. So is there a way to extract the crash logs programatically. Also what is the naming convention for a crash log file that is created in an iPhone. Thanks!

Hi, would like to check what are the conditions for the 'Open Photos' option to appear under 'Settings' &gt; 'Mobile Service' &gt; 'add eSIM'. It was available previously roughly a few weeks ago but now it is missing. I have cross-checked this with friends and colleagues who are on &gt;iOS 17 and some have that option available. Personally using iOS 17.4. Screenshot below.

Id apple phone number "This phone number is already in use with another account" I have recently purchased an iPhone and I can not add my phone number to my Apple ID, in fact, it tells me that my number is already in use in another Apple ID account. Since I had already created an Apple ID many years ago, I was able to access it and request the deletion of the old account so that I could later enter my phone number into the new Apple ID. The problem is that the error persists, not allowing me to use iMessage and FaceTime. What can I do? Thanks for your attention. [Personal Information Edited by Moderator]

i have been told I sound robotic on company Teams &amp; Zoom calls. This has only happened in the last update of Mac OS. Has anyone else come across this and found a solution?

Hello, I've been developing a web app which I need the front camera and need to take a picture at a higher resolution. But I have one issue. When I call navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia() in the browser to get the resolution of the camera, it shows it as 2052 x 2736. But it's a 12 MP front camera. I take a picture of myself using the camera app on the iPad and it shows 12 MP picture. The back camera reports it fine. You can also test it out on webcamtests.com to see the resolution.

I'm building a physical therapy app and as part of it, I want the app to oversee and measure certain exercises that the user will do. I'm not sure if I should use Core Motion, location services, or something else. These are the specific things we want to measure: The user walks for 6 minutes. At the end of it, we tell them how far they walked. The user runs for 30 seconds. We tell them their average speed and peak speed. The user does a broad jump: basically just jumping forward as far as they can. We want to measure the distance jumped. I'm thinking location services might work for #1 but I doubt it will be accurate enough for #2. For #3 I thought I could do this with the accelerometer if I took readings at short intervals and combined them with something like the trapezoidal rule, but I can't get this to produce a reliable result. Let me know what you think, thanks.

Hello, my company ordered Apple TV 4K HDMI + WIFI only.. The device has no ethernet or USB-C port. Only has HDMI and power port. I read on Apple's website to connect to Apple configurator I have to do it via WIFI. I followed the steps from the Apple website (https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/apple-configurator-2/cada1ba9dab1/mac) but once I'm paired to the Apple TV and I try to "Prepare" in Apple configurator to get the device setup on MDM it tells me the AppleTV device is already prepared and asks to "Erase" which I do then the Apple TV is back to the beginning setup screen and no longer connected to WIFI... Once I run through the setup again and get back on WIFI and goto pair screen it says the same thing when I try to prepare again.. Just going in circles and not getting anywhere.. Anyone have a solution? Prepare Apple TV HD or Apple TV 4K using Wi-Fi or Ethernet Make sure your Apple TV is connected to the same network your Mac is connected to. Make sure the Apple TV is at the first screen of the Setup Assistant that says Pair Your Remote. Launch Apple Configurator 2 . From the Apple Configurator 2 menu, choose Paired Devices. Select your Apple TV in the Paired Devices list, then click Pair. Enter the six-digit personal identification number (PIN) that appears on the screen of your Apple TV. Select your Apple TV in the device window of the Apple Configurator 2. Click Prepare and follow the onscreen instructions to set up your Apple TV.

we have corp own devices (ipad's) that need to disable the ability of users to turn off the location services as well as airplane mode and GPS, how this can be done? Thanks in advance

As I am currently in development of an App for iOS, I also need a Mac. Currently, I am working on the Mac of my girlfriend. But, it turns out that I need a newer version of XCode which is not supported on Monterey. I also can't update Mac OS since it is not supported on this hardware anymore (also can't do it on her machine - it's hers). Long story short, I am now in the process of getting my own Mac. Unfortunately, I am not really familiar with the different Macs out there and wanted to know about longevity or longterm support of these machines regarding OS Updates. I want to be able to update also in the next cycles. As I do not have too much Budget, I wanted to find a refurbished one, but one that still supports OS Updates for a while so that I do not have the same situation next year and have a machine then which also can't update XCode/Mac OS. Is there anything you would recommend?

hi everyone does anyone understand this issues below ?

In 2 days we have observed in Crashlytics over 50 crashes related to PKDrawing.image with EXC_BAD_ACCESS KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS 0x0000000000000210 So far all on iPads with A10, A12 and A13; 100% on iOS 17 (17.1.1, 17.2, 17.3) (while in others the percent of iOS 17 was around 60-80%). Context: Images of the varying frame and scale resulting in screen resolution are being generated sequentially (in a background serial queue called almost one after another when requested), updating one CALayer.contents (and only after this update on Main Thread the next generation is allowed). One zoomable PKCanvasView is present on screen. The crashing line in code: let image = drawing.image(from: frame, scale: renderScale).cgImage The questions: Is there anything that can be done apart from throttling generation? Can the circumstances of the crash be determined – are there any indications accessible in code before calling PKDrawing.image that app might crash?
