App development agency bankruptcy, what about our apps?
First, I apologize if I post to the wrong forum, but this is kinda new to me. Backstory: I recently joined a company as CTO and the first topic on my agenda is the mobile presence. The android app was built in-house, but the iOS app was outsourced to an app/web development agency. The problem: the aforementioned agency ceased operations in mid-2024 without notifying us. They cancelled their dev program enrollment and our apps are no longer available on the App Store. And the agency reps are not responding to emails and phone calls. My question: is there a way to get access to our application? We plan in-house redesign and refactoring in 2025, but we want access to the bundle ID, the app groups, the iCloud container, etc. We can present legal documents, company website and branding, everything to prove that app is technically ours. Thanks in advance! Have a good and productive 2025!

HomeKit
March 2025. I’ve reached a point where so much about the Apple ecosystem is broken that I have stopped caring. My lights stopped working properly in HomeKit shortly after the last update. They work in the Wiz native app but not HomeKit. Device automations are now spotting and random; bad when they are alarms. When Apple was less, it was more. I have an iPhone 12 and see no reason to upgrade. Why pay a premium for suboptimal products and services. Anyone notice that calls to Apple Support are now fielded by non-professionals? I’ve asked. Just random applicants, typing my question(s) into Safari for solutions. No idea why government is getting cut when private is t any better. Humans are on a downward slope.

Новый вид
Возможно ли сделать из iPhone мини квадрокоптер. Встроить маленькие пропеллеры , выдвижные естественно и с подвижной камерой, если это возможно ) или тогда просто неподвижной но зато летучим iPhone. На счет пульта не известно. Наверно такой телефон не будет стандартного размера, наверно как caterpillar, но я бы купил )

There is no Driver Extensions option to resolve this error.
I have a Logitech Yeti GX microphone, which is working, but i am unable to fully use all its features because of a driver issue. Logitech states the following to resolve "The program Logitech G Hub Driver installer tried to load a new driver extension. To enable this extension, open Systems Settings>General>Login Items & Extensions>Logitech G Hub HID Driver Extension> Toggle on.... that appears to be simple enough... only problem is that Driver Extension doesnt exist as an option for me. Any thoughts as to why not? Thanks for your help.

Flutter Hanging Splash Screen
Hi All, Im writing a flutter app and have had no issue thus far. My latest review says the iPad air (5th) is hanging on the splash (launch) screen. I have no idea why this is. The main method In flutter is more or less empty, as functions have been offset elsewhere. I'm not quite sure what to do next. I resorted to rebuilding the IOS dir and that make a difference for the iPhone issue not the iPad. I run it in the simulator and notice one issue which I imagine is the problem. it states: Errors found! Invalidating cache... fopen failed for data file: errno = 2 (No such file or directory) Errors found! Invalidating cache... I'm using plane old flutter and don't believe I access any assets that aren't specified. Any pointer would be a great help!

Introducing myself
Hello! I just realized thaty I had signed up for this developer account some time ago without making any meaningful attempt to introduce myself other than attending a few of the Apple meetups at NeurIPS and ICML conferences. As a quick introduction I come from a background in open source development, most notably associated with the "Automunge" python library for dataframe encodings / missing data infill. I also have some background supporting Apple in context of volunteering as an executive officer for an IEEE Standards Association working group developing floating point arithmetic / data types for machine learning. Beyond that have been a dedicated user with frequent product feedback to various channels over the years. I am currently self employed and focussing on building an IP portfolio and investing. I am always open to share dialogue as to how to help advance the field, hope that I might get a chance to meet a few more of this communty at some point. Best regards, Nicholas Teague

Apple Relationship Manager (ARM) – A Business CRM for Calls & Messages
Apple has a massive opportunity to improve iOS for business users with ARM (Apple Relationship Manager)—a built-in tool that allows professionals to log, summarize, and integrate calls & messages into CRM workflows. Many professionals (salespeople, executives, entrepreneurs) use iPhones for business, but there’s no easy way to track conversations, categorize interactions, or integrate messages with a CRM. ARM would solve this by allowing: ✅ AI-powered call summaries (users get a suggested summary after each call, which can be reviewed and tagged). ✅ iMessage/SMS tagging (users can hold down messages to assign a sentiment or create a follow-up). ✅ CRM Integration (ARM logs could sync with HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.). How ARM Would Work: • Users could tap an “ARM Accept” (green accept button with the ARM logo instead of white phone symbol) button before a call to activate AI-powered summarization. • After the call, users would review/edit the summary and log a sentiment (e.g., “Needs Follow-Up”). • In iMessage, users could long-press messages to summarize conversations and tag key interactions for both blue and green messages. • ARM would keep everything on-device, ensuring privacy and security. Since Apple Intelligence is already introducing AI-powered features, ARM could make iPhones the ultimate business communication tool while keeping everything private and secure. If you also want Apple to build this, submit feedback at Apple Feedback and comment here to show support!

When navigationstack is using two times in SWIFTUI
Hello, I use Navigationstack in the first and second views. In this case, the second view is executed immediately and then disappears. Is there a solution? The code is as follows. device = i-phone struct ContentView: View { @State var path: [String] = [] var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path) { VStack { Text("Screen1") Spacer() Button(action: { path.append("2nd") }, label: { Text("go to 2nd Screen") }) } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { s in if s == "2nd" { let _ = print("1st screen nav path(1) = \(path)") SecondScreen(path: $path) let _ = print("1st screen nav path(2) = \(path)") } } .onAppear { print("1st screen on appear") print("1st screen path = \(path)") } .onDisappear { print("1st screen on disappear") print("1st screen disa. path = \(path)") } .padding() } } } struct SecondScreen: View { @State var path2: [String] = [] @Binding var path: [String] var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path2) { VStack { Text("2nd Screen is loaded") Spacer() Button(action: { path2.append("3rd") } , label: { Text("go to 3rd Screen") }) Button(action: { path2.removeLast() } , label: { Text("back to 1st Screen") }) } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { s in if s == "3rd" { // Text("3rd") thirdScreen() } else { thirdScreen() } } } .onAppear { print("2nd screen on appear") print("2nd screen path = \(path)") print("2nd screen path2 = \(path2)") } .onDisappear { print("2nd screen on disappear") print("2nd screen path = \(path)") print("2nd screen disa. path2 = \(path2)") } } } struct thirdScreen: View { var body: some View { VStack { Text("3rd Screen") } .onAppear { print("3rd screen on appear") } .onDisappear { print("3rd screen on disappear") } } }

Delete subscription data and buy data
Please create the feature to be able to delete subscription data. I want to delete all my subscription data and buy history from the Icloud/ IPhone. You have all the permissions needed from me to do so. There must be a better way than creating a new apple account on a new email address. And having to shift everything to a new email address to have a clean account regarding subscription data and purchases?!

[iPadOS 18.4 PB 4] Magic Keyboard Not Registeting Touchpad or Mouse Clicks across OS
Hardware: iPad Pro 11" (M2 Version) Software: iPadOS 18.4 Beta 4 (most recent as of 2025-03-24) Got an interesting one today that I am curious if anyone else has run into, and sadly it’s one that does affect my iPad use a lot! I use the Magic Keyboard 11” on mine. After upgrading to the Public Beta 4 last night, the keyboard works fine, the trackpad shows my grey dot on the screen and even indicates that it recognizes a trackpad click by that grey dot changing slightly. However, the actual click, nor scrolling, actually works in any way shape or form. The only gesture I’ve seen work up to this point is the three-finger motion to change applications, that’s it. I have two iPad’s, and two keyboards, and it does not matter which keyboard one I use, which confirms that it’s likely a software issue of some sort. Other reason that’s the case? Hooking up an external trackball and the same behavior happens. Anyone else run into this?

Apple watch problem when only play music on watch
I have encountered a problem that the Apple Watch cannot automatically continue playing the music in my playlist even if I have press the cycle button. It stops every song. And I used Apple Music. All these are performed without iPhone. But after restarted the watch, it works fine. I use S10 GPS watch with watch os 11.3.1. I never restarted the watch after I renewed the system. And i believe the problem have existed for more than one year as i saw a post describe the same problem on social media.

CarPlay Driving Task App Start/Stop NAvigation
Hi you all, I wrote an CarPlay Driving Task App that can start Navigation to a well defined target. This works as expected (navigation app is started to the destination), but sometime, for any important reason, my application receives updates about current destination. I should interrupt current navigation to current destination and update to the new destination. I'm not able to interrnupt/update. Have you any idea if this is possible? Thanls in advance!

buildAudienceType is not working as expected
Hi, Am using fastlane to upload into TestFlight. Am able to successfully upload the build without any issues. For Testing Internally , I want to upload the build into App Store Connect but I should restrict it on submitting to App Store. ( This is possible when i distribute the app via TestFlight Internal Only from XCode -> Organizer -> Distribute App (Select option with TestFlight Internal Only). I want to achieve the same using either Transporter/ fastlane. I tried setting buildAudienceType to INTERNAL_ONLY as per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/buildaudiencetype but it is not working. Can you suggest how i can achieve this via fastlane?
