Summary A crash occurs in ViewBridge framework when a TUINSRemoteViewController object receives -release message after being deallocated. This appears to be a reference counting issue within the ViewBridge framework's internal autorelease pool management. Environment macOS Version: [15.0.0] Application: Custom Qt-based application using Chromium Embedded Framework (xcode version: xcode 15; QT version: 6.5.4 ; CEF version: 138.0.47+g2728d53+chromium-138.0.7204.221) Steps to Reproduce Users are typically using the app normally, but a crash occasionally occurs when they activate and click on the application. This happens infrequently, but it occurs roughly every day. Currently, only a few specific users experience this crash, and it may appear for several consecutive days before disappearing for several days. We cannot reliably reproduce this issue but have collected crash logs from affected users.

Questions Is this a known issue in ViewBridge framework? Is there any workaround or mitigation we can apply from the application side? Could you provide guidance on what might trigger this condition?

Hello Apple Developer Technical Support, I’m following up on case #102807413324 and submitting this as a code-level support request. We are integrating iOS Live Activities (ActivityKit + WidgetKit extension written in SwiftUI) into an Expo/React Native app. We’re seeing behavior where the Live Activity UI shown on the Lock Screen appears to “stick” to an older layout and ignores updated SwiftUI code and/or bundled assets, even after rebuilding, reinstalling, and removing existing Live Activities before testing again. Environment Device: iPhone 13 iOS: 26.2 macOS: 15.7.3 (24G419) Xcode: 16.4 (16F6) Expo SDK: 52 React Native: 0.76.9 expo-live-activity: ^0.4.2 Build type: Ad-Hoc signed IPA (EAS local build) Summary We have a WidgetKit extension target (LiveActivity.appex, bundle id: stimul8.LiveActivity) using ActivityConfiguration(for: LiveActivityAttributes.self). The extension contains multiple SwiftUI views selected via a “route” (derived from deepLinkUrl / title / subtitle), and uses images/backgrounds from the extension asset catalog (Assets.xcassets). We also support loading images from an App Group container with a fallback to the asset catalog. After shipping updates, the Live Activity UI shown on the Lock Screen continues to resemble an older/default layout (example: a progress-bar-like element remains visible even after removing ProgressView usage from LiveActivityView.swift). Some custom backgrounds/images also fail to display as expected. Routing (examples) /streak -> StreakLiveActivityView /streak-urgent -> StreakUrgentLiveActivityView /lesson/create -> AILessonLiveActivityView1 /lesson/reminder -> AILessonLiveActivityView2 default -> LiveActivityView Steps to reproduce (high-level) Install/build and trigger a Live Activity. Modify the SwiftUI layout in the extension (e.g., remove ProgressView and change obvious UI elements), rebuild, and reinstall. Remove any existing Live Activities from the Lock Screen, then trigger a new Live Activity again. Observed: Lock Screen Live Activity still renders the prior/older-looking UI and/or ignores updated assets. Troubleshooting already done Verified the extension (LiveActivity.appex) is included in the IPA and properly signed. Verified Assets.car is present in the extension and PNG assets are present in the build artifacts. Ensured SwiftUI source files used by the extension are overwritten during prebuild so the intended versions are present in ios/LiveActivity. Cleared DerivedData related to LiveActivity builds. Reinstalled the app and removed existing Live Activities from the Lock Screen before re-triggering new ones. Questions Is there any known caching behavior where Live Activities can continue to display a previous UI layout after an app/extension update, even when the activity is re-created? Are there recommended steps to force the system to load the newest widget extension binary/UI beyond reinstalling and removing existing Live Activities? What’s the recommended way to confirm which exact extension binary/UI version is being rendered on-device (e.g., specific Console logs, sysdiagnose signals, or other indicators)? Are there any known constraints with Assets.xcassets usage for Live Activities that could cause bundled assets not to render even when present? We can provide A minimal reproduction Xcode project (preferred) The IPA build Build logs (Xcode/EAS) Screenshots/video and a sysdiagnose captured after reproduction Thank you for your guidance. Best regards

Some of the users of my app reported that, the widgets cannot be loaded, event after restarts and re-installs. It seems that it is not rare, I have tens of reports on this (and probably much more who didn't report). It seems the widget is blank even on the gallery screen while you are first adding it: struct SingleWidgetProvider: AppIntentTimelineProvider { @Environment(\.widgetFamily) var family private let viewModel: WidgetViewModel = WidgetViewModel() func placeholder(in context: Context) -> SingleEntry { SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample) } func snapshot(for configuration: SingleWidgetConfigurationIntent, in context: Context) async -> SingleEntry { guard let habit = Array(PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabitList().habits).first else { return SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample) } let displayable = viewModel.displayableFromHabit(habit, separateComponents: true, secondOffset: 0) return SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: displayable) } func timeline(for configuration: SingleWidgetConfigurationIntent, in context: Context) async -> Timeline<SingleEntry> { var entries: [SingleEntry] = [] guard let counter = configuration.currentCounter else { return Timeline(entries: [SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample)], policy: .atEnd) } guard let habit = PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabit(habitKey: counter.id) else { return Timeline(entries: [SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample)], policy: .atEnd) } let currentDate = Date() for secondOffset in 0 ..< 100 { let displayable = viewModel.displayableFromHabit( habit, separateComponents: true, secondOffset: secondOffset, symbolName: habit.habitSymbol?.name ?? "", overrideColor: configuration.currentColor.color, overrideButtonVisibility: configuration.currentButtonVisibility, overrideDisplayOption: configuration.currentDisplayOption ) let entryDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .second, value: secondOffset, to: currentDate)! let entry = SingleEntry(date: entryDate, habit: displayable) entries.append(entry) } return Timeline(entries: entries, policy: .atEnd) } } struct SingleEntry: TimelineEntry { let date: Date let habit: HabitDisplayable } static var singleSample: HabitDisplayable { return HabitDisplayable(habitKey: nil, title: LS("sampleWidgetHabitTitle"), dates: [Date(timeIntervalSince1970: 1507158360)], displayOption: .dayMonthYear, secondOffset: 0, separateComponents: true) } func displayableFromHabit( _ habit: Habit, separateComponents: Bool, secondOffset: Int, symbolName: String = "", overrideColor: Color? = nil, overrideButtonVisibility: WidgetButtonVisibility? = nil, overrideDisplayOption: WidgetDisplayOption? = nil ) -> HabitDisplayable { let latestDates: [HabitDate] let displayOption: DisplayOption if let overrideDisplayOption { if overrideDisplayOption == .sameAsCounter { displayOption = habit.settings?.toValue.displayOption ?? .dayMonthYear } else { displayOption = DisplayOption(rawValue: overrideDisplayOption.rawValue - 1) ?? .dayMonthYear } } else { displayOption = habit.settings?.toValue.displayOption ?? .dayMonthYear } let displayMode = displayOption.mode switch displayMode { case .timePassed, .date: latestDates = PersistenceManager.shared.latestDate(habit: habit).map { [$0] } ?? [] case .activity: latestDates = PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabitDates(habit: habit, limitDate: displayOption.limitDate()) } let displayButton: Bool if let overrideButtonVisibility { if overrideButtonVisibility == .sameAsCounter { displayButton = habit.settings?.toValue.buttonType == .onRow } else { displayButton = overrideButtonVisibility == .show } } else { displayButton = false } return HabitDisplayable( habitKey: habit.habitKey, title: habit.title, dates: latestDates.map { $0.date }, displayOption: displayOption, secondOffset: secondOffset, separateComponents: separateComponents, color: overrideColor ?? habit.habitColor?.color ?? .appPrimary, symbolName: symbolName, displayButton: displayButton ) } I provided a large portion of my code, let me know if you need more. The strange thing here is, even if the DB connection is broken somehow, it should have shown the default option (singleSample). I am not able to reproduce/fix this for months now, so any help is very appreciated.

How to eliminate this spacing？

Hi everyone, I’m implementing Live Activities in my iOS app and encountering an issue when starting a Live Activity via an APNS push. The Live Activity card appears on the Lock Screen / Dynamic Island for a moment, then immediately disappears. In the console, I see the following error: Content load failed: unable to find or unarchive file for key: [com.meituan.imeituan-beta::com.meituan.imeituan-beta.liveactivity:Attributes type: SAKUniversalReminderAttributes:6DBCC2DC-E613-48F5-B97F-3EF72AA0877B]:[w:fix-374.00-h:dyn-64.00-160.00-cr:23.5-s:1.0.fam:medium].

I’ve verified that the attributes and content state types match the ones defined in the app, and the app is built with the correct entitlements.This happens on my iPhone 17 Pro device. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Could it be related to the archive file not being written correctly by the system, or perhaps a mismatch in the activity attributes? Any guidance on debugging or resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello, I’m working on an iOS app where we have integrated ActivityKit to support Live Activities. Our app currently supports iOS 16.x and above, and we do not have an Apple Watch app or watchOS support. However, we noticed that when a Live Activity starts on the iPhone, it automatically appears on the Apple Watch as well. Since our app is not designed for Apple Watch, we would like to prevent the Live Activity UI from appearing on the watch. My questions: Is there any way to disable or prevent Live Activities from showing on Apple Watch via code? Are there any configuration options in ActivityKit or Widget configuration that can restrict Live Activities to iPhone only? Our current setup: Minimum iOS version: 16.x Using ActivityKit for Live Activities No watchOS target in the app Any guidance or recommended approach would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

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.

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?

Environment iOS Version: 26.4 Beta (Build 17E5170d) Xcode Version: 26.4 Beta Framework: AccessoryNotifications, AccessoryTransportExtension Description When implementing AccessoryNotifications.NotificationsForwarding.AccessoryNotificationsHandler, I'm unable to retrieve the URL for sourceIcon from AccessoryNotification. The file.url property throws AccessoryError error 0 with the message "unable to get file URL". Code Sample func add( notification: AccessoryNotification, alertingContext: AlertingContext, alertCoordinator: any AlertCoordinating ) { Task { if let sourceIcon = notification.sourceIcon { do { let url = try await sourceIcon.url // Throws AccessoryError error 0 let data = try Data(contentsOf: url) // Process icon data... } catch { print("Failed to get sourceIcon URL: (error)") // Error: The operation couldn't be completed. // (AccessoryNotifications.AccessoryError error 0.) } } } } Observed Behavior The sourceIcon property is present and its type is correctly reported as public.image: │ sourceIcon : present │ type.identifier : public.image │ type.description : image │ url : (error: The operation couldn't be completed. (AccessoryNotifications.AccessoryError error 0.)) Error details: Error: customError(message: "unable to get file URL") Type: AccessoryError Code: 0 Expected Behavior The file.url property should return a valid URL that allows reading the source icon image data, or the documentation should clarify any limitations or prerequisites for accessing this resource. Questions Is this a known limitation in the current beta? Are there additional entitlements or permissions required to access sourceIcon.url? Is there an alternative API to retrieve the actual image data for sourceIcon? Additional Context The same error occurs when accessing url in both describeNotification (debug logging) and sendAttachment methods contextIcon is typically nil for the notifications tested (e.g., WeChat messages) The notification metadata (title, body, actions, etc.) is correctly received

I have a watchOS WidgetKit complication that needs the user's location to show the nearest transit station, but the widget never gets location permission and CLLocationManager times out. Setup: NSWidgetWantsLocation = YES in Widget Extension's Info.plist NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription and NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription in Widget Extension's Info.plist Watch App successfully has location authorization Problem: The system never presents a location permission prompt for my widget. Apple's own World Clock widget does get one on watchOS (see screenshot) — I can't figure out what triggers it. When the widget tries to get location via CLLocationManager, the request times out and never returns a location. Questions: What triggers the system location prompt for a watchOS widget? Is NSWidgetWantsLocation sufficient or is something else required? Why would CLLocationManager time out and never return a location inside a widget extension? Is there a specific pattern required for requesting location in a WidgetKit timeline provider? Screenshots Sorry for swedish, but it says "Do you allow widgets from World Clock to use your location services?"

We are evaluating the new behavior mentioned in the Nearby Interaction documentation for iOS 18.4+, which states: “In iOS 18.4 and later, your app can continue ranging in the background with any supported device if the app starts a Live Activity as it goes to the background." Could you clarify what situations are considered “can continue ranging” versus cases where it will not continue? Specifically, if my app: starts a NISession in the foreground starts a Live Activity with that data then the app goes to background should the NI session still deliver ranging updates so the app can update the Live Activity? also, my app already enable Background Modes capability

Hi, I want to create a ControlWidget button that acts as a shortcut in the control center open a specific view within my app to show a badge. Problem: I can‘t get it to open my host app. I tried a custom myapp:// protocol - did not work, I tied AppIntent with the openAppWhenRun set to true - did not work and the strange thing is the debugger breakpoint in perform will only get triggered if this is set to false. OpenIntent did not work either even if I use a dummy swift app as host to try it out. What is the current supported way (iOS 18 and 26) to open your app when a static ControlWidget button is clicked, what could I have done wrong / am missing?

Hi, i searched some information about how widgetKit updates widgets using "reloadAllTimelines/reloadAllControls" and i know about daily limit for apps to update their widgets. I only care about how to notify user instantly about vpn status change even if app is terminated and user launch vpn connection from ControlCenter(system widget) or SysSettings, is there a way to update my app's contolCenter widgets from Tunnel if widget and tunnel extensions already have same appGroup defaults?

Environment Xcode 26.5 beta iOS 26.5 beta Using AccessorySetupKit + AccessoryTransportExtension framework Three extensions: AccessoryTransportAppExtension, AccessoryTransportSecurityExtension, AccessoryDataProviderExtension Background Everything worked correctly on iOS 26.4 beta. All three extensions shared the entitlement com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension, and the system launched them as expected. After upgrading to iOS 26.5 beta (both Xcode and device), the app compiles and runs, the accessory pairs and connects successfully (state = authorized, BLE connected, notification forwarding = allow), but none of the extensions are launched by the system. Investigation Captured system Console logs from the device and found these errors from deviceaccessd: error deviceaccessd ### Extension 'com.huami.NotificationForwardingDemo.AccessoryDataProviderExtension' is missing entitlement: com.apple.developer.accessory-data-provider for com.apple.accessory-data-provider error deviceaccessd ### Extension 'com.huami.NotificationForwardingDemo.AccessoryTransportSecurityExtension' is missing entitlement: com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-security for com.apple.accessory-transport-security It appears that iOS 26.5 now requires per-extension-type entitlements instead of the shared one. On iOS 26.4, all three extensions used com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension and it worked. On iOS 26.5, deviceaccessd now expects com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-security for the security extension and com.apple.developer.accessory-data-provider for the data provider extension. The transport app extension did not report an error, so it may still accept the old entitlement. Attempted Fix Changed the entitlement keys in the .entitlements files to match what deviceaccessd expects. Xcode fails to build with: ▎ Entitlement com.apple.developer.accessory-data-provider not found and could not be included in profile. This likely is not a valid entitlement and should be removed from your entitlements file. Root Cause Checked Apple Developer Portal — only one capability is available: "Accessory Transport Extension", which maps to com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension. There are no separate capability options for the new entitlements. The iOS 26.5 beta system requires new per-extension-type entitlements, but the provisioning system does not yet support them. This makes it impossible to build a working AccessoryTransport app on iOS 26.5 beta. Request Please either add the new entitlement capabilities (com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-security, com.apple.developer.accessory-data-provider) to the Apple Developer Portal, or restore backward compatibility with com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension in deviceaccessd.

Hi everyone, I’m currently reviewing the app transfer criteria in Apple’s official documentation and came across the following statement: “Mac apps that have used the sandbox environment and share the Application Group Container Directory with other Mac apps can't be transferred.” We are planning to add Widget support to our iOS app before initiating an app transfer. As part of this, the app would likely: Enable App Sandbox Use App Groups to share data between the main app and the Widget Given this, I have a couple of questions: Although the documentation explicitly mentions Mac apps, would the same restriction for app transfer apply to iOS apps that use App Groups (e.g., for Widgets)? If iOS apps are not subject to this restriction, will the Widget extension and its associated App Group data transfer correctly along with the main app during the transfer process? We want to make sure we don’t introduce any blockers before proceeding with the transfer. Any clarification or related experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
