Hello,
I've encountered unexpected behavior related to version information in our app logs, and I'd like to ask for some advice.
We reviewed logs collected from a user running our app (currently available on the App Store). The logs are designed to include both the build number and the app version.
Based on the build number in the logs, we believe the installed app version on the user's device is 1.0.3.
However, the app version recorded in the logs is 1.1.5, which is the latest version currently available on the App Store.
In our project, we set the app version using the MARKETING_VERSION environment variable.
This value is configured via XcodeGen, and we define it in a YAML file.
Under normal circumstances, the value defined in the YAML file (MARKETING_VERSION = 1.0.3) should be embedded in the app and reflected in the logs. But in this case, the version from the current App Store release (1.1.5) appears instead, which was unexpected.
We'd like to know what might cause this behavior, and if there are any known factors that could lead to this.
Also, is it possible that MARKETING_VERSION might somehow dynamically reflect the version currently available on the App Store?

Hi everyone!
I recently developed an app (sort of a social media app), built in React Native Expo. I have finally after months of coding, completed the App. It works completely fine and passes all my testcases on multiple devices. It has also passed Apples review and after a few tries become stable on all their devices. However, when I released it to TestFlight, it opens and crashes immediately? I have tried numerous fixes, error boundaries etc. but to no avail.
I am really struggling here, I can't seem to replicate the error at all even in Xcode. It seems to just crash on open where the splashscreen flashes, not sure why? I have attached the crash report and redacted the TEAM_ID and DEVICE_ID. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Warm regards,

When I try to get a new API Key I get the following error.
"API Keys cannot be created due to an invalid Program License Agreement. Please update this agreement and try your request again."
I have been to the agreement section, and it says:
"Issued October 8, 2025. Accepted November 19, 2025."
Any idea why I still get this error??
Not sure if that makes a difference. I had a paid account, but I didn't renew it because I don't need it anymore, and I was told that I can still use this account for free for app testing.
When attempting to open sysdiagnose logs collected from an iPhone running iOS 26 beta 3 on macOS Console, the application consistently crashes.

Hello,
In my IOS app, I have been working on implementing a third-party library's xcframework into my app. (They don't provide spm or cocoapods). However, whenever I import the XCFramework into my app, the build is successful, but when uploading to App Store Connect, I receive an email with an error stating the Swift Support folder is missing. This app was made using SwiftUI. I have a sample project linked below. Other apps also use this framework, so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.
Project
For my app Find Any File, of which both releases and TestFlight betas were released many times, the TestFlight page tells me that several users have submitted crash reports. And I'm sure the same is true for the MAS releases:
(Yes, this shows quite recent ones, but I've seen similar supposed crash report submits in this list before.)
However, the actual "Crashes" listing on the appstoreconnect sites hasn't show any new crash reports for many months now:
(This is the entirety of crash reports I can get listed, even when removing all filters.)
Something appears to be stuck, on Apple's end.
The same issue is with Xcode's Organanizer window, for "Crashes": It also used to list only the same very old reports and nothing since May 2024. And just now, when I retried this in Xcode, I'm shown a weird error message I never saw before:
Error Downloading Crashes List
An error occurred… Access Restricted with adam id: 1207815783
And yes, I'm logged in just fine, under Prefs / Accounts.
How am I going to get this investigated? I had already sent an email about this to the Review team, who didn't react to it at all. DTS is only for Code level support, which this isn't.
Any help?
Hi,
I keep getting an error message when I try to publish my App made with Rork into Apple IOS.
Message reads
"Submission failed: Submission failed. Contact support. Don’t dump it on Rork — it won’t fix this. We still need a human."
Any help with this would be appreciated.
I am using Microsoft edge and have also used Google Chrome.

The same occurs with iostrem if it is the first include mentioned.
Compiling in Xcode itself does not this problem, though.

When a static library is built with Xcode 26 (with deployment target set to iOS 13) and then linked into an app project compiled with Xcode 16, the build process fails with the following linker error:
Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:
"_swift_coroFrameAlloc"
This occurs even though both the static library and the app project have their deployment targets set to iOS 13.0. The static library works on Xcode 26, but fails to link on Xcode 16.
This issue shows up with certain Swift syntax. For example, in my case, using a property getter and setter caused the compiler to emit a reference to _swift_coroFrameAlloc, which in turn triggered the issue.
This issue prevents us from distributing pre-built static libraries compiled with Xcode 26 to teammates who are still using Xcode 16.
I’ve filed feedback for this issue (FB21130604).
Is there any way to work around it? For example, by adding specific Build Settings or something similar?
A demo project is available here: https://github.com/Naituw/SwiftLibraryDeploymentTargetIssue
The demo project includes:
StaticLibraryProject: A simple Swift static library with property getter setter usage
AppProject: An iOS app that links against the static library
verify_compatibility.sh: An automated script to reproduce the issue
Method 1: Manual Build and Verification
Open StaticLibraryProject/StaticLibraryProject.xcodeproj in Xcode 26
Build the StaticLibraryProject for iOS device (Release configuration)
Locate the built libStaticLibraryProject.a in the build products directory
Copy libStaticLibraryProject.a to AppProject/AppProject/ directory
Open AppProject/AppProject.xcodeproj in Xcode 16
Build the AppProject for iOS device
Method 2: Automated Script
Edit verify_compatibility.sh to configure the paths to your Xcode installations:
Set XCODE_26_PATH to your Xcode 26 installation path (e.g., /Applications/Xcode.app)
Set XCODE_16_PATH to your Xcode 16 installation path (e.g., /Applications/Xcode16.app)
Run the script: ./verify_compatibility.sh
I'm running macOS 15.5. I now have Xcode 26 and I'm testing my iOS app against iOS 26. I've encountered several UIKit / iOS 26 bugs I'd like to report. In Feedback Assistant I choose "Developer Technologies & SDKs". Eventually I get asked "What build does the issue occur on?". The list of choices is:
iOS 18.2 Seed 4
iOS 18.1.1
iOS 17.7.2
An earlier iOS build
I'm not sure
So how to I report this as an iOS 26 beta 1 issue?
Hello
I developed an app for my cousin (I wrote all the code myself), but she’ll be the one managing it once it’s published. She’ll take care of the content, updates, and anything admin-related.
Right now, the app uses my Firebase account and my Apple Developer account (App Store Connect), which I set up at the start of the project.
I’m wondering:
• Am I at risk legally or financially if the accounts stay under my name, even though I won’t be involved in the app after release?
• Is it possible to migrate the project to her email, meaning transfer Firebase and the Apple Developer account to her own account, so that everything is properly under her control?
Thanks in advance for any insights or experiences

I would like to inquire about a concern related to the app review process. Specifically, I would like to understand if forcefully denying an application's execution on the iOS Simulator (for instance, by implementing a check in the code that prevents the app from running in a simulated environment) could negatively impact or delay the app’s approval during the App Store review process.
This measure is intended solely for security and integrity reasons during development and distribution. The app functions normally on real devices, and all other guidelines and requirements outlined by Apple are being strictly followed.
Could you please confirm whether such a restriction on the Simulator is acceptable, and if there are any best practices or recommendations from Apple regarding this?
Thank you for your support, and I look forward to your guidance.
I just turned it on by accident and I can’t turn it off… I’m using IOS 26 rn and I can’t go back and I can’t disable the developer mode, I’m not a developer so yeah

Hello Apple Support,
I’m facing an issue with Background Fetch in my React Native project. When I click on Simulate Background Fetch in Xcode, everything works as expected on the iOS Simulator—background tasks run smoothly, and data is fetched without issues. However, on a real device, the app goes to the background but doesn’t execute any of the scheduled background tasks, and it also remains in the background without terminating.
Here’s some additional context:
React Native Project: I’m using React Native to develop this app, and the background tasks involve:
Getting User Location: Fetching the user’s location in the background.
API Calls: Calling an API to fetch necessary information based on the user’s location.
Scheduling Notifications and Alarms: Scheduling notifications and alarms based on the API response data.
Simulator vs. Real Device:
In the iOS Simulator, all these background tasks trigger and function correctly when I simulate Background Fetch.
On the real device, however, none of these tasks are triggered when I try to simulate Background Fetch. The app only moves to the background without performing any tasks or getting terminated.
Device and Configuration Details:
iOS Version: 17
Device Model: Iphone xs, Iphone 11, iphone 7
Background Modes: Background Fetch is enabled in Capabilities, and I’ve set the fetch interval to the minimum for testing.
I’ve verified that all configurations are correctly set, and I’ve tried restarting the device and Xcode, but the issue persists. Is there something specific about Background Fetch that could prevent it from functioning as expected on physical devices? Any guidance on troubleshooting or additional steps would be highly appreciated.
Thank you!
Hi everyone,
after enabling CloudKit in my project, my app started showing conflicts between MusicKit and CloudKit entitlements — and now Xcode is failing to generate the provisioning profile entirely.
Current issue (Signing / Provisioning Profile Failure)
Xcode shows this error:
“Provisioning profile ‘iOS Team Provisioning Profile: team8.groovefy.dev’ doesn’t include the entitlements:
com.apple.developer.media-library,
com.apple.developer.music-user-token,
com.apple.developer.musickit,
com.apple.developer.playable-content,
com.apple.security.exception.mach-lookup.global-name”
Automatic signing fails, and Xcode cannot create or update the provisioning profile.
This started right after CloudKit was enabled in the project.
Context
Before enabling CloudKit, MusicKit worked normally, including Apple Music authentication and playlist creation.
After activating CloudKit capabilities:
MusicKit stopped generating the Apple Music user token
Playlist creation broke
Now the provisioning profile cannot be rebuilt because the required MusicKit-related entitlements are no longer included
Even after removing CloudKit entirely, the issue persists — as if the App ID or entitlements on the server side became inconsistent or corrupted.
I already tried:
Recreating App Identifier
Recreating provisioning profiles
Resetting capabilities
Cleaning and reinitializing the Xcode project settings
But Xcode still refuses to generate a valid provisioning profile that includes the MusicKit entitlements.
Summary
Enabling CloudKit caused MusicKit entitlements to collide, and now the provisioning profile no longer includes the required MusicKit entitlements — preventing the app from signing, running, or creating playlists.
If anyone has faced this type of entitlements/provisioning corruption or knows how to reset the App ID entitlements on Apple’s side, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good morning everyone,
I am developing a Flutter app for Android and iOS.
When I press a button, the app detects the location of the device (obviously with permissions already granted).
On Android everything works correctly.
On iOS, however, when I press the button for the first time after opening the app, the location is detected after about 30-50 seconds.
On the other hand, if I repeat the operation later, the response time is drastically reduced (only a few seconds).
I am using the location package (https://pub.dev/packages/location), and the code to get the location is as follows:
var currentLocation = await location.getLocation();
Has anyone experienced this problem before or knows how to solve it?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
From App analytics, we found that our app crashed from time to time on users' devices despite that we have tested it thoroughly on our devices. We are doubt that it's the reason why we can't retain them. But how can we get the crash reports for the app installed on user devices? We have no users' emails and can't ask them directly.
Hi, anyone managed to make this work? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/backgroundassets
Trying for past few days and can't make it work. Following their official documentation, also this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3jpgZrB1uo, but it seems I am stuck at:
try await AssetPackManager.shared.ensureLocalAvailability(of: assetPack)
What I did:
Manifest files created, info.plist configured, asset pack created and uploaded to appstoreconnect via transporter, successfully assigned to app and ready for internal testing. Added to my code:
let assetPack = try await AssetPackManager.shared.assetPack(withID: "Tutorial")
try await AssetPackManager.shared.ensureLocalAvailability(of: assetPack)
let videoData = try AssetPackManager.shared.contents(at: "Videos/Introduction.m4v")
but no luck at all....
is anywhere any demo project available to download to compare with my project?
