Hi, I am on iOS 14.2 beta. I currently develop a DNS only 'VPN' app. While connected to WIFI, I have no issues loading websites and connecting. My DNS server receives the traffic coming from clients and everything works normal. However, as soon as the client begins to use 4G (cellular) all traffic stops. It is almost as if the sandbox has it's internet connection pulled except it is systemwide. Is this a bug in iOS 14? I have a friend testing my app and he reported the same Issue on the released 14.0.1 Unfortunately I no longer have a device running iOS 13 myself so I cannot test older versions. Did something change in iOS 14? I know in macOS app need to have an entitlement to be able to send and receive data. Seems rather strange this works flawlessly over wifi but is blocked over cellular

Hello, I am trying to make a DNS only vpn. However I cannot figure out how to do it. The only solution I can think of is to create a local vpn server on the iOS device. However this is against the developer guidelines and will also stop working when the app goes into the background. Basically, I don't want to change the device IP or forward traffic outside of the device. I only want to forward the DNS to my own custom server. Because this app is not just for me, I cannot simply run my own vpn server on my local network. The reason I am making the app is to be able to change my DNS while using cellular data. I just want something super simple like; //set dns server let dns = "8.8.8.8" //button Button(action: { if disconnected = true {    connect() } else{ disconnect() } }) { if disconnected = true {    Text("Connect") } else { Text("Disconnect") } }

Hello, recently I tried to do a fresh install via a USB drive with create install media. I changed the paths around so that it used the macOS Beta installer and then it wrote the Big Sur installer to the USB. I booted my MacBook Pro 13" 2015 from this USB drive, and it indeed booted into the macOS Big Sur recovery setup. However, when I tried this on my brand new 2020 MacBook Pro, it kept booting into internet recovery mode. Yet I had previously enabled "Booting from external volume" and enabled "No security" to allow the installation of unsigned media. I suspected that it was maybe to do with the fact that I had downloaded the beta installer and wrote it to the USB drive on my OLD MacBook. So what I did was is copy it to a secondary USB drive, boot recovery mode on my NEW MacBook, placed the 2nd usb and original USB into my NEW MacBook, and then ran the create install media from terminal in the recovery mode on the new MacBook. This seemed to have changed something because I was now able to boot from this Newly written USB. However, upon entering safe mode I would get the message "An update is required to boot from this volume" I selected update, my Mac then proceeded to show the Apple logo with the progress bar and after about 3 minutes I was put into recovery. Now I was presented with something along the lines of "There was an error updating" I pressed Try again, same issue. I rebooted and then re ran the update, same issue. It seems like it is Impossible to boot the macOS Big Sur installer to perform a clean installation as recommended by the developer notes. In macOS Catalina recovery, I connected the usb containing the Big Sur.app and then opened terminal, navigated to the volume and then manually launched the app. This worked and showed the beta installer. However, upon selecting my now formatted APFS drive it displayed a blank progress bar and after 10 minutes of nothing I called it off, installed Catalina and updated to Big Sur via Catalina.

Hello, after spending some time, I have narrowed it down to being caused by the use of an external monitor. Mac Catalyst apps on macOS Big Sur (10.11 / 10.16) crash when launched from an external monitor as the main display. System: MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) (BETA 2) External Monitor: LG 34GK950F 1440p 144hz 1ms HDR This affects all Mac Catalyst apps including Voice memos, Twitter for Mac, Maps etc. Crash log: pastebin.com/raw/sYc7dKEd

Hello, i own the app OneProxy (AppStore)I have remade the app entirely, it is in TestFlight stage at the moment. I enabled the Mac option (Catalyst) and the app launches fine. Once launched, it asks for permission to use VPNs. I accept and press connect. Nothing happens. I go into the Networks Pannel in Preferences and it looks like it has not been setup correctly. Does mac Catalyst not support the NetworkExtensions PacketTunnel?
