Hi, experts, I want to find Siri response window by bundle id and use it for checking or printing, here is my example code: XCUIDevice.shared.siriService.activate(voiceRecognitionText: "call mom") let siriApp = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "***") // Print out text from siriApp, // expecte print: "Sorry, I can't make a phone call with your iphone." Where should I put into ***? I tried "com.apple.SiriViewService", "com.apple.siri.velocity", "com.apple.springboard' but nothing work Any suggestion appreciated, thanks!

Hi, I have a .NET MAUI app running on .NET 9. When I test locally in debug or release mode it works perfectly fine, but when testing from TestFlight it crashes almost immediately every time. I have sent the crash report to TestFlight and produced the symbolicated.crash file (attached), but I'm not sure it's helpful for understanding how to fix the issue. If anyone can help me understand what the issue might be and any possible fixes it'd be very much appreciated. I'm developing using Visual Studio 2022 paired to my Mac. I have distributed previously without issue, but now can't seem to, even after reverting recent code. net9.0-ios 15.0 symbolicated.crash

Hi all, First time trying to upload a game to the App Store, having some trouble with it. I have managed to build my Unity Project and get it onto Xcode, but when I click "distribute app" it is giving me this error. Asset validation failed, Invalid Bundle. The bundle at (app name).app/Frameworks/UnityFramework.framework' contains disallowed file 'Frameworks'. Xcode version 16.2 Unity editor version 2022.3.30f1 Anyone know how to get past this? Many thanks!

I've got an app where I want to split its Model code into a framework (.xcframework and .framework for debugging) so that it can be used by more than one app. The code has dependencies on 3rd party code, which are installed via pods. During the conversion process I keep running into the same issue which manifests with all the 3rd party code - which is that the majority of its api can be used (something like 80-90%) but for the remainder there is a linker error at runtime showing undefined symbols. I have this problem with CocoaLumberjack,RealmSwift, PhoneNumberKit and more. Its very quick and easy to reproduce the issue with a minimal framework and minimal app, below I'll describe how a minimal setup using CocoaLumberjack reproduces the issue: From scratch, I use Xcode to create a framework project, run pod init, then modify the pod file to be: platform :ios, '16.0' workspace 'TheFramework' project 'TheFramework' target 'TheFramework' do use_frameworks! pod 'CocoaLumberjack/Swift', '3.8.5' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '16.0' config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = 'YES' end end end Then I add source code: import Foundation import CocoaLumberjack public class AClassInTheFramework { public class func aMethod() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) DDLogDebug("Some logging") } } Within the Xcode project, Build Libraries for Distribution is set to Yes, I also add that line to the pod file in case CocoaLumberjack isn't set similarly. In the Framework's Xcode General section, Frameworks and Libraries contains Pods_TheFramework.framework set to Do Not Embed. In the Build Phases section, in the Link Binary with Libraries section, Pods_TheFramework.framework is set to required. Next I create an Xcode app template, run pod install, and edit the app pod file to be: platform :ios, '16.0' workspace 'AppUsingFramework' project 'AppUsingFramework' target 'AppUsingFramework' do use_frameworks! pod 'CocoaLumberjack/Swift', '3.8.5' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '16.0' end end end I build the framework, and drag and drop it into the app. I add the following code to the app's delegate: import TheFramework ... AClassInTheFramework.aMethod() The App's target has the following linkage settings: When I build and run the app, there is the following error: If I change the source code in the framework to this: public class AClassInTheFramework { public class func aMethod() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) // DDLogDebug("Some logging") } } Then there is no error and the code runs successfully. This illustrates the problem I've encountered with all the nested frameworks - in this particular case calls to DDLog.add() don't result in an error but calls to DDlogDebug() do, and that has been mirrored with other nested frameworks (for example with Realm, opening a database, adding, finding,retrieving an item all works without a problem, however attempting to use Realm's Results<> API results in a similar symbol not found error). Additionally note that the identical CocoaLumberjack code can run fine when used directly from within the app, i.e., if I add the following code to the app: import CocoaLumberjack func useCocoaLumberjackDirectlyFromWithinApp() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) DDLogDebug("Some logging") } useCocoaLumberjackDirectlyFromWithinApp() Then it runs, i.e. DDLogDebug() can be successfully called from within the app, its only when its called via the framework that the error occurs. Why might I be encountering these issues? I'd have thought either I'd be able to use 100% of the nested framework's public api, or 0% of it (is something is not configured correct), not ~80% which is what I am encountering. Any ideas? TIA

I can see that a MacOS VM guest running on top of an Apple Silicon MacOS host has GPU acceleration - indicating GPU sharing capabilities for the hardware. Is there also a way to have GPU acceleration in Linux guests (with Vulkan/Mesa drivers)?

I'm trying to rewrite an old AppleScript mail rule that I used extensively as a Mail extension using the MailKit framework and I've run into an issue. Previously, when developing the script, it was possible to debug it by selecting the message I wanted it applied to and choosing the Mail.app menu item "Message/Apply Rules" This would re-execute my script and I could iterate over it as many times as I liked while developing. I haven't found any great way of doing this for my extension with a MEMessageActionHandler. The closest I've found is to forward the message to myself and wait for it to come back in again over the internet, at which point the extension would get executed again. Needless to say, this makes debugging my MEMessageAction handler much slower. I've tried a number of things in Mail.app to try and get it to re-execute my extension with a particular message without any luck. Does anyone know of a good process for debugging a MEMessageActionHandler that doesn't involve forwarding the message to myself over and over and waiting for it to come in each time?

I am working on a MAUI application. When I go to archive my build to then release it, my bundle is not including the Assets.car file that apple is seemingly expecting for handling the app icons, which is leading to issues trying to publish my app. The assets are in a AppIcon.appiconset folder in my project (under Platforms>iOS>Resources) with a proper Contents.json file also in there. They are setup as a BundledResource (also have tried ImageAssets for the build type but with the same issue occurring). I am using visual studio 2022 on Windows 11 paired with a Mac (Sequoia 15.5) and Xcode 16.4. I have even tried manually compiling the asset catalog from xcode16.4 and trying to use terminal commands to have actool create the Assets.car but that runs with no files created to the output destination as well as no errors. I believe there may be an issue with actools in my Xcode copy. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck. Any suggestions or tips?

hey I accidentally deleted my info.plist with holds my app version and other critical things and I don't know how to get it back or how to recode it

I submitted a Feedback (FB17843422) on Monday evening after the keynote about Tahoe beta 1. At the time it still wasn't listed in the "What build does the issue occur on?" dropdown. I selected "I'm not sure" instead hoping I could update it later but as far as I can tell that isn't the case since "Add more information" only lets me add additional comments. Is there some way for me to do that or is it even necessary?

Not sure if this is common with releases but I've been doing some CI work recently so it's the first time I've seen this myself, When I list the runtimes installed on my machine: xcrun simctl list runtimes I notice the iOS 18.3.1 release has the below info: == Runtimes == iOS 18.3 (18.3.1 - 22D8075) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-3 Meanwhile the other runtimes are listed as: == Runtimes == iOS 17.5 (17.5 - 21F79) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-5 iOS 18.4 (18.4 - 22E5216h) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-4 watchOS 11.2 (11.2 - 22S99) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.watchOS-11-2 visionOS 2.3 (2.3 - 22N895) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.xrOS-2-3 (Apologies for the weird formatting above, using code blocks and quote markdown condenses things down to one line for some reason) This is causing some funkiness in my CI code which I've managed to workaround, but wondered if this was a common thing, specifically the mismatch between the iOS name and the runtime version. iOS 18.3 and com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-3 vs 18.3.1 - 22D8075 where the .1 has been dropped for the runtime names?

I'm currently developing a Unity game for iPad and have run into a critical issue that's completely blocking me from building the project. The project uses the Mapbox SDK for Unity. Everything was working fine during today test build on the iPad. I made minor changes - just four scripts, then attempted another build. However, Xcode began showing the following error: The signature of “MapboxCommon.xcframework” cannot be validated and may have been compromised. Validation Error: The signing certificate has been revoked (CSSMERR_TP_CERT_REVOKED) This error now occurs consistently. I've tried building on a different MacBook and with a different Apple account, but the result is the same. I haven't made any changes to the Mapbox framework, nor have I updated it recently. I'm trying to determine the root cause: Is this something I've done on my end? Or is it an issue with the Mapbox framework or their signing certificate? Is there a temporary workaround that would allow me to proceed with development builds while I investigate a proper fix? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Good day everyone. I have a react native app which works on dev mode on my device - Iphone 13 pro version: 18.5, but when deployed to TestFlight and installed on same device it crashes when ever I click on any TextInput. I downloaded the crash file but finding it difficult to pinpoint the problem. I want to know what the problem is, if it's related to an installed package or code base or any other. Any help will be appreciated!!! Thanks. crashlog.crash

One of the libraries that makes up my application depends on -undefined dynamic_lookup to link, and has since at least Snow Leopard if not earlier. I think iOS hasn't liked this for a while, but with the new linker I'm getting deprecation warnings even on OS X. I don't entirely understand what this flag does, other than it makes the build successful. :) So I'm at a loss on how to even approach fixing it. At this point, even links to useful resources would be appreciated, since googling hasn't yielded much beyond "remove -undefined to quiet the deprecation warning." FWIW, there is a bit of circular dependence between this library and another. On another OS, we need a carefully choreographed dance of building object files, then import libraries, then final linking to make this all work. So I suspect this may be related, but even if I'm correct, I don't know what would be the equivalent tools on Apple platforms.

I have command line tools installed: % pkgutil --pkg-info=com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables package-id: com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables version: 16.2.0.0.1.1733547573 volume: / location: / install-time: 1739567437 Thus clang is installed here: % whereis g++ g++: /usr/bin/g++ I also have installed gcc from homebrew: % /opt/homebrew/bin/g++-14 --version g++-14 (Homebrew GCC 14.2.0_1) 14.2.0 Copyright (C) 2024 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

However, I still cannot compile any c++ code, even the simplest one: #include &lt;iostream&gt; using namespace std; int main() { cout &lt;&lt; "Hello World!" &lt;&lt; endl; return 0; } It returned this error: % /opt/homebrew/bin/g++-14 ~/Downloads/try.cpp ld: unsupported tapi file type '!tapi-tbd' in YAML file '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.tbd' for architecture arm64 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status It seems to be command line tools related. But I've already installed the most recent version of CLT and gcc. Additionally, clang can compile the same code: % /usr/bin/g++ ~/Downloads/try.cpp % ./a.out Hello World! What else shall I do to make this g++ compiler work?

For example, what if I wanted to remove CoreData from the SDK when I install to reduce the SDK’s size?

I am a developer with a free developer account, and my account is under the legal age of majority. I know that, according to the terms in Section 6 of the Apple Developer Agreement, I must be the legal age of majority to use pre-release software, and yet the Software Update section of Settings on my device would allow me to install a beta release of iOS 26. Is there a way for me to hide/remove this option without signing out of my account, and not have it appear again as an option until I reach the age of majority?

Tech stack: React Native + Expo. We are using two solo developer accounts (not a business or team account). Context: Friend and I set out to make an app together. Friend created app and set it up on Apple. We worked on it together. He controlled devops (builds and submission). Friend no longer can commit to development. Wants to transfer to me. I create apple developer account. After app transfer, my phone (deviceid) underwent a 14 day soft ban preventing builds. That has since been lifted. There seems to be something in place preventing me from making dev builds on the original dev bundleid. It says it's still owned by him despite the app transfer. Bottom line: what needs to happen so I can make dev builds? Nice to have: we can both make dev builds under the same bundleid

Hi. I have an iPad 7th gen running iPadOS 14.8.1. For testing purposes, I want to upgrade it to the latest release of iPadOS 17, even though the device wants me to upgrade to iPadOS 18.5. Is there a way to upgrade it to iPadOS 17? btw this would free-up a newer iPad running iPadOS 17 so I can install iPadOS 26 beta. Thank you.

We are developing a Flutter application targeted for MacOS and Windows . We are using the FlutterMacOS and connectivity_plus packages in our app But whenever we are releasing a version to App Store we are getting the privacy manifest file missing for above 2 packages We tried to add xcPrivacy file inside the Runner Xcode project. But that doesn't solve the issue Adding the relevant lines from the warning email getting from App Store below "ITMS-91061: Missing privacy manifest - Your app includes “Contents/Frameworks/FlutterMacOS.framework/Versions/A/FlutterMacOS”, which includes Flutter, an SDK that was identified in the documentation as a commonly used third-party SDK.
