Overview

My app has been in "Waiting for Review" since February 19, 2026. It has been over 10 days with no status change. Submission ID: 4577f492-606e-4615-9cc5-05c35da79ff9 There are no rejection notices and no messages in Resolution Center. I have contacted Developer Support but received no resolution. The average review time is 24-48 hours. Could someone please look into this? Thank you.

Hello,I dunno if this is the right place to ask this, but i have tried to enroll for almost two weeks now, and there is no reply at all with next step in the enrollment process, the message says it will be processed within 48 hrs.for reference i am outside the united states. and enrolling as personal developer not an ORG.

To use passkeys, you need to place the correct AASA file on the web server and add an entry in the Entitlements.plist, for example webcredentials:mydomain.com. This is clear so far, but I would like to ask if it's possible to set this webcredentials in a different way in the app? The reason for this is that we are developing a native app and our on-premise customers have their own web servers. We cannot know these domains in advance so creating a dedicated app for each customer is not option for us. Thank you for your help!

We recently developed the provisional permission for our app, but we have noticed that is not working as expected in iOS 16 (We have tested only there). Currently we request the permissions like this: UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .badge, .sound, .provisional]) { [weak self] _, _ in // here we register for pushes in case authorizationStatus is provisional or authorised } What happens is we do get the 1st notification with the keep CTA - once tapped we see that there pops an action: "Deliver Immediately", but even though the user selects that, we still see under setting the pushes are marked as "Deliver Quietly". In addition to this the sound and bage still stay as toggled off - and the lock screen and banner as well stay off. Basically, nothing changes after the user selects "Deliver Immediately"

I'm building a macOS network monitor using NEFilterDataProvider as a system extension, distributed with Developer ID signing. On macOS 26.3 (Tahoe), sysextd consistently rejects the activation request with "no policy, cannot allow apps outside /Applications" — despite the app being in /Applications and passing every verification check. I'm aware of the known Xcode NE signing bug (r. 108838909) and have followed the manual signing process from Exporting a Developer ID Network Extension. I've also tried both xcodebuild build and xcodebuild archive workflows — identical failure. Environment macOS 26.3 (25D125), SIP enabled Xcode 26.3 (17C529) Hardware Apple M2 Pro Certificate Developer ID Application (issued Jan 30, 2026 — 27 days old) MDM/Profiles None installed Signing & Verification (all pass) $ spctl -a -vv /Applications/Chakshu.app /Applications/Chakshu.app: accepted source=Notarized Developer ID origin=Developer ID Application: ROBIN SHARMA (R65679C4F3) $ codesign --verify --deep --strict -vv /Applications/Chakshu.app /Applications/Chakshu.app: valid on disk /Applications/Chakshu.app: satisfies its Designated Requirement $ xcrun stapler validate /Applications/Chakshu.app The validate action worked!

Extension entitlements match (minus system-extension.install). Developer ID provisioning profiles are embedded in both app and extension.

CodeSigningHelper completes. Then the policy check fails. The app receives OSSystemExtensionError code 4 (extensionNotFound). What I've tried and ruled out Build process: Approach Result xcodebuild build -configuration Release + manual re-sign Same failure xcodebuild archive + export from archive + manual re-sign (per thread/737894) Same failure Minimal hand-crafted Xcode project (no xcodegen, trivial code) Same failure Both workflows follow Quinn's process exactly: build with Apple Development → copy app → embed Developer ID provisioning profiles → re-sign inside-out (extension first, then app) with -systemextension suffix entitlements → notarize → staple → install to /Applications. System-level checks: Rebooting — no change Killing sysextd — no change Removing com.apple.quarantine xattr — no change chown root:wheel on app bundle — no change lsregister -r (reset Launch Services) — no change Waiting 27 days for certificate propagation — no change Reinstalling via Finder drag-to-Applications — no change No MDM or configuration profiles installed /Library/SystemExtensions/db.plist shows extensionPolicies: [] (empty) Key observation Pre-existing network extensions activated before macOS 26 work fine on this machine. For example, Tailscale's NEPacketTunnelProvider shows state: activated_enabled in the system extensions database — it was activated on a prior macOS version and is still running. Only new system extension activations fail. I've seen similar Tahoe-specific reports from LuLu (same NEFilterDataProvider type, Developer ID distribution): LuLu #825 LuLu #831 Questions Is this a known regression in macOS 26's sysextd policy evaluation for new Developer ID system extension activations? sysextd's policy check fails after all signature and trust evaluation succeeds. Is there a separate trust/policy path that sysextd consults beyond what spctl, codesign, and CodeSigningHelper verify? Is there anything else I should be checking? I have a sysdiagnose captured immediately after the failure, a minimal reproducer project, and full raw sysextd logs available on request.

Hello! I recall guidance for Alternate App Icons used to be under 4.6 and stated that: each change is initiated by the user and the app includes settings to revert to the original icon. However, I see that section 4.6 was removed on June 10, 2024, and now shows up as "Intentionally omitted". Does this mean that under the current guidance an app is now allowed to trigger an icon change without the user input, and does not need to provide the option to revert it back? Thanks!

After exerting a custom model with nms=True. In Xcode, the outputs show as: confidence: MultiArray (0 × 5) coordinates: MultiArray (0 × 4) I want to set fixed shapes (e.g., 100 × 5, 100 × 4), but Xcode does not allow editing—the shape fields are locked. The model graph shows both outputs come directly from a NonMaximumSuppression layer. Is it possible to set fixed output dimensions for NMS outputs in CoreML?

Navigating to the Contact Us website (https://developer.apple.com/contact/) results in an "Error:" showing at the top of the page. I cannot select options for starting a new issue or accessing recent ones - and sometimes nothing shows up on the page at all (attached screenshot). I've been trying to get in to request an expedited review since Thursday afternoon. I checked the System Status page and there are no reported issues. I am using Microsoft Edge and also logged in via Safari - still wasn't able to access the Contact Us issues.

In many cases I’ll be talking to folks with a memory management problem and I’ll say “You should investigate this with the standard memory debugging tools.” They then turn around and ask me “What are those tools?” Well, this is what I mean: Zombies — This lets you quickly detect when an object is used after it’s been deallocated. Learn more about it in the Finding zombies section of the Instruments Help and in Investigating crashes for zombie objects. There was also an excellent WWDC video about this, namely, WWDC 2010 Session 311 Advanced Memory Analysis with Instruments. This is no longer available in the video archive but if you can find a copy it’s well worth a watch. Address Sanitizer — This is a lower-level tool that finds a variety of common memory management issues, including use after free and buffer overruns. Learn more about this in Diagnosing memory, thread, and crash issues early and the various articles it links to. There’s also a good discussion of this tool, and other Xcode runtime diagnostic tools, in WWDC 2017 Session 406 Finding Bugs Using Xcode Runtime Tools (also no longer available from Apple). Hardware memory tagging — If you have access to a device with hardware memory tagging — starting with the A19 or M5 processors — consider enabling Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE). For the details, see Enabling enhanced security for your app or watch Secure your app with Memory Integrity Enforcement. Even if you don’t want to do that for your production app, enable it just for development by checking Hardware Memory Tagging in the Options tab of Xcode’s scheme editor. Older tools — There are a variety of older tools that might be useful in some specific circumstances. See the Enabling the Malloc Debugging Features section of the Memory Usage Performance Guidelines for more information about these. Of specific interest is libgmalloc, which is documented in a UNIX man page. For some practical examples of how to identity a memory management crash report and then investigate that crash with these tools, take a look at WWDC 2018 Session 414 Understanding Crashes and Crash Logs.

PLEASE HELP! All of the sudden, today I cannot get onto sites I use normally. Like chat, claude, canva etc. I keep getting this error message. Can someone please tell me is going on? This needs to be fixed!

I set the value of NSURLHasHiddenExtensionKey. I provide a textfield to rename a file and I set this flag based on whether the user has deleted or left on the path extension. So -setResourceValue:forKey:error: returns YES, does not populate the error, but does not honor the value I just set it to. I'm always setting it off the main thread on the same serial queue. Works the first time I rename the file then it just starts failing (silently). For example: NSError *setError = nil; if ([theURL setResourceValue:@(NO) forKey:NSURLHasHiddenExtensionKey error:&setError]) { [theURL removeAllCachedResourceValues]; NSNumber *freshRead = nil; NSError *getError = nil; if ([theURL getResourceValue:&freshRead forKey:NSURLHasHiddenExtensionKey error:&getError]) { if (freshRead.boolValue) { NSLog(@"it is yes when it should be NO."); } } if (getError != nil) { NSLog(@"Get error: %@",getError); } } if (setError != nil) { NSLog(@"Set error: %@",setError); } While I get that it is possible for there to be other apps setting this value at the same time as my app, doesn't really seem possible in my local environment right now. No errors log out but "it is yes when it should be NO." does log out.

Hello, I'm currently investigating an issue related to iOS credit card autofill (Payments & Card Details) in our mobile application. Our app is built using React Native, and we are implementing card input fields using TextInput with the required autofill configuration: autoComplete="cc-number" textContentType="creditCardNumber" Despite correctly configuring these properties, credit card autofill is not being triggered on iOS devices. I would appreciate clarification on: Is credit card autofill officially supported for React Native TextInput fields using autoComplete="cc-number" and textContentType="creditCardNumber"? Are there any additional requirements (entitlements, associated domains, specific configurations, etc.) needed for payment autofill to work? Is autofill expected to work inside WKWebView contexts? Are there any known limitations or restrictions for third-party frameworks such as React Native? I would appreciate any guidance or documentation you can share regarding the expected behavior and official support for this scenario

Hello Apple Developer Support, I’m developing a virtual camera using the CMIOExtensionDevice / CMIOExtensionStreamSource APIs on macOS. While the virtual camera appears in system settings and apps like Zoom and Google Meet, the video output exhibits the following issues: Jittering frames: The first frame sometimes appears correctly, but subsequent frames flicker or jitter. Solid color fill: Eventually, the camera feed fills entirely with a solid accent color (e.g., blue), rather than the intended video content. Console logs: Repeated messages appear in Console.app: Invalid display 0x00000000 Setup details: The virtual camera is created using CMIOExtensionDevice and CMIOExtensionStream. Video frames are rendered from NSImage/CGImage using CGContext and copied into CVPixelBuffers. Frame delivery is controlled by a DispatchSourceTimer at 60 FPS. macOS version: [Your macOS version here] Xcode version: [Your Xcode version here] Observations: The Invalid display 0x00000000 logs suggest that CGContext drawing or NSImage operations are failing in headless mode (i.e., there is no real display attached to the virtual camera). Using CIContext with .useSoftwareRenderer = true appears to mitigate some flicker, but not entirely. Questions / Requests: Is it expected that CoreMediaIO virtual cameras cannot reliably render CGImage / NSImage frames offscreen? Are there recommended APIs or approaches to render virtual camera frames fully headless to avoid display-dependent jitter? Is there any documentation or sample code from Apple showing stable video output from a virtual camera extension that does not rely on a physical display? Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated. This issue prevents the virtual camera from being used reliably in standard video apps. Thank you, Savvy

Paid 7 days ago, no access to development program. meanwhile two tickets without getting an answer

Is there an issue with Apple Developer expediting a submission, also I am unable to reach out to support without an error. The error is just a generic "ERROR" I cannot access developer support to reach out and describe the issue. This is everyone inside my organization using both a corporate network and personal network. This has been going on for over a month

I have paid for the enrollment membership program 7 days ago. Yet I always see the message saying "Complete your purchase to continue the enrollment". Do I have to wait more ? Should I try paying a second time ? Will the end of my membership be extended by that waiting period ? Despite two support requests, I am still left waiting without knowing if I have to do something or not. I feel like this is really unprofessional from a multi-billion dollars company...
