Overview

hello everyone, help me to cancel renewal of my own developer account since my app never gets to be reviewed and i have no money left. how to stop it? i've been trying everything couldnt find the cancel subscription button.

Could you please provide guidance on the following points: Start Token Throttling Are there any throttling limits or rate restrictions applied to Start Tokens? Token Invalidation Scenarios Under what specific conditions can a Start Token become invalidated? Are there known scenarios that trigger invalidation? Token Regeneration Timeline Once a Start Token is invalidated, how long does it typically take before a new token can be successfully generated and validated? Frequency of Invalidation Is there any documented or expected frequency with which Start Tokens may become invalid, assuming a normal development workflow? Impact on Push Notification Token When a live activity Start Token becomes invalid, does this also cause APNs Push Notification Tokens to be invalidated or refreshed automatically?

Hello Apple Developer Community, I am seeking assistance for my app, Mithaq (Version 1.0), which has been stuck in "Waiting for Review" since February 16, 2026. Submission ID: 1c5e2e35-1171-4348-b26f-236204d0ffc0 Questions: Will the app automatically move into the review queue now that agreements are active, or is manual action required? Should we wait for the current submission, or is it better to "Remove from Review" and resubmit? We have sent follow-up emails and an expedited review request but have received no response. Any guidance from the community or Apple Support would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,

Hi, I'm building ANF (Autonomous Native Forge) — a cloud-free, 4-agent autonomous software production pipeline running on local hardware with local LLM inference. No middleware, pure Node.js native. Currently running on NVIDIA Blackwell GB10 with vLLM + DeepSeek-R1-32B. Now porting to Apple Silicon. Three technical questions: How production-ready is mlx-lm's OpenAI-compatible API server for long context generation (32K tokens)? What's the recommended approach for KV Cache management with Unified Memory architecture — any specific flags or configurations for M4 Ultra? MLX vs GGUF (llama.cpp) for a multi-agent pipeline where 4 agents call the inference endpoint concurrently — which handles parallel requests better on Apple Silicon? GitHub: github.com/trgysvc/AutonomousNativeForge Any guidance appreciated.

A friend of mine said he applied for enrollment for an Organization. But during the process he did not type the code received for verifying the email. On the next day trying for enrollment there was a message of max tries. Plus he received an email with the title "developer agreement signed" How can he verify the agreement started or what can he do? He wants to know if it was succesful and he must wait or...

Hello Apple Developer Technical Support Team, I’m working on an iOS banking/security SDK and we’re trying to match an Android feature that reads payment cards via NFC (EMV). On Android, this is implemented using an NFC scanning screen (e.g., “NfcScanActivity”) that can read EMV data from contactless credit/debit cards. Could you please clarify the current iOS capabilities and App Store policy around this? On iOS, is it currently possible for a third-party App Store app to read contactless credit/debit cards using Core NFC (i.e., accessing EMV application data/AIDs from payment cards)? If this is possible, what are the supported APIs/frameworks and any entitlement requirements (if applicable)? If this is not possible for App Store apps, could you recommend the closest acceptable alternatives for achieving a similar user outcome? For example: Using Apple Pay / PassKit flows for payment-related experiences Card scanning alternatives (camera-based OCR) for capturing card details (if allowed) Using an external certified card reader accessory (MFi) and required approach/entitlements Any other Apple-recommended approach for “card verification / identification” without reading EMV NFC data Our goal is not to bypass security restrictions, but to provide a compliant solution on iOS comparable to Android’s NFC-based card reading, or to adopt an Apple-approved alternative if direct EMV reading is not supported. If helpful, I can share a brief technical summary of the Android behavior and the exact data we need to obtain (e.g., whether it’s card presence verification vs. reading specific EMV tags). Thank you for your guidance. Best regards, Imran

Dear Apple, Due to the fact that you have not responded to my numerous emails, have not given me access to my Apple developer subscription, have not contacted me in any way, and have charged me twice, I am initiating a refund procedure through my bank. Please respond urgently so that I understand what you plan to do next. Will I have access to the subscription I paid for? Or will I receive a refund? I won't even mention the fact that my deadlines have already passed because of you. $200 down the drain, and I'm a student, so that's a lot of money for me.

I have opened a developer account couple of month ago, and enrolled successfully. Did the app store connect and put the app for testing. The company decided to change legal entity, and thus, I had to create a new developer account. So, I have enrolled to a new developer account. My enrollment is pending for almost 3 weeks, while I do not understand what is the status. I have tried sending emails to support and also calling support, but no success. What can I do?

I have been experiencing many issues trying to integrate the Apple AlarmKit in my app. I essentially keeping getting authorization errors. I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing issues like this and if anyone had guidance or a fix for what I am experiencing. I was under the impression that any devices IOS26+ could use the AlarmKit but maybe I am mistaken. Getting (com.apple.AlarmKit.Alarm error 1.) every time I try and enable alarms.

In my tabview i set a safeAreaBar topPanel, under i have contentview. That ignore safeArea.top so feed go under. What is the best Way to have a the first post in content appear under (under the bottom) if the safeareabar. I use list with foreach. Do we measure the height or is it some smart tips?

I've yet to encounter these errors when running UI tests locally, but I'd estimate that 80-90% of my test runs on Xcode Cloud fail due to it. I'm just testing with iPhone simulators, I've set it to retry on failure, but no luck. Is there a setting or something I can tweak in my test code to improve the situation? I am on the latest xcode/iOS dev betas - but it was doing this before I switched to them from.

Apps should all be free then cost money after you play them like fortnite is free but is really popular and make a lot of money so other apps should be like that and have in game purchases to

hi, the email i used to create my apple store is no longer accessible by me... I need to change it, but have no way of contacting since when I click "contact for an issue" it defautls to that email that I can't see

When trying to load an ambisonics file using this project: https://github.com/robertncoomber/NativeiOSAmbisonicPlayback/ I get "Unexpected Ambisonics format". Interestingly, loading a 3rd order ambisonics file works fine: let ambisonicLayoutTag = kAudioChannelLayoutTag_HOA_ACN_SN3D | 16 let AmbisonicLayout = AVAudioChannelLayout(layoutTag: ambisonicLayoutTag) let StereoLayout = AVAudioChannelLayout(layoutTag: kAudioChannelLayoutTag_Stereo) So it's purely related to the kAudioChannelLayoutTag_Ambisonic_B_Format

Some capabilities include distribution restriction. For example, you might be able to use the capability for day-to-day development but have to get additional approval to publish an app using that capability to the App Store. To tell if a capability has such a restriction: Go to Developer > Account. At the top right, make sure you’re logged in as the right team. Under Certificates, IDs & Profiles, click Identifiers. Find the App ID you’re working with and click it. IMPORTANT Some managed capabilities are granted on a per-App ID basis, so make sure you choose the right App ID here. This brings up the App ID editor. In the Capabilities tab, locate the capability you’re working with. Click the little info (i) button next to the capability. The resulting popover lists the supported platforms and distribution channels for that capability. For example, the following shows that the standard Family Controls (Development) capability, which authorises use of the com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement, is only enabled for development on iOS and visionOS. In contrast, if you’ve been granted distribution access to this capability, you’ll see a different Family Controls (Distribution) capability. Its popover shows that you can use the capability for App Store Connect and Ad Hoc distribution, as well as day-to-day development, on both iOS and visionOS. In the Family Controls example the development-only capability is available to all developers. However, restrictions like this can apply to initially managed capabilities, that is, managed capabilities where you have to apply to use the capability just to get started with your development. For example, when you apply for the Endpoint Security capability, which authorises use of the com.apple.developer.endpoint-security.client entitlement, it’s typically granted for development only. If you want to distribute a product using that capability, you must re-apply for another capability that authorises Developer ID distribution [1]. Some folks encounter problems like this because their managed capability was incorrectly granted. For example, you might have applied for a managed capability from an Organization team but it was granted as if you were an Enterprise team. In this case the popover will show In House where you’d expect it to show App Store Connect. If you’ve believe that you were granted a managed capability for the wrong distribution channel, contact the folks who granted you that capability. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" [1] Endpoint Security clients must use independent distribution; they are not accepted in the Mac App Store.

I am working on an e-commerce app (retail/marketplace) that allows users to place orders for both free and paid products. After receiving a DeclaredAgeRange API response — retrieved via the Family Controls / Screen Time framework — indicating that a user is a minor, I want to understand the recommended approach for handling payment flows. Specifically, is it necessary to block payments for users identified as minors via DeclaredAgeRange, even though our app uses server-side encrypted card processing rather than Apple In-App Purchases (StoreKit)? Any guidance on best practices or App Store policy requirements for this scenario would be greatly appreciated.
