I have an app that connects to a BLE device and registers its services. I can create a notification when my app is running on foreground or background, but is it possible to show a notification when a message is recieved from the BLE device while the app has been killed by the user?

We are experiencing networking issues in our iOS application when it is built with Xcode 16 or later. Our app includes a video conferencing feature that works reliably when built with Xcode 15 or earlier — we can sustain hour-long video sessions without interruption. However, when the app is built using Xcode 16 or higher, network connections drop after 2–3 minutes during a session. This triggers an auto-reconnect, which succeeds, but the connection drops again after another 2–3 minutes. This loop continues indefinitely. Key Details: The issue only occurs in TestFlight builds. When running the app via Xcode debugger, the issue does not occur. The issue is consistently reproducible in TestFlight builds created with Xcode 16 or later. TestFlight builds created with Xcode 15 do not exhibit this issue. All the videoconferencing runs on C and C++ code What We’ve Tried: Reviewed Xcode 16+ release notes but found no relevant changes or deprecations. Verified app configuration and entitlements. Confirmed that no app-side changes occurred between the working and broken builds. Request: We’re seeking guidance on what changes in Xcode 16+ could be affecting networking behavior in release/TestFlight builds. Any insight into relevant build settings, compiler changes, or runtime behavior differences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Neither a google search, nor a search of the Apple forums give me a clue as to how to locate or fix the following message I get from Xcode. CLIENT: Failure to determine if this machine is in the process of shutting down, err=1/Operation not permitted This error message came from attempting to build and execute an iOS App which ran just fine the last time I built it. Now, that was actually a little over two years ago. This is an iOS app, which I've run successfully for more than a year on macOS, and that, "My Mac (Designed for iPad)", is what my build target for this run was. Any ideas? Anyone? If this is a "known condition", just why doesn't a friendly internet search or a search of the Apple forums NOT tell me what it means, or what causes the message. Of course, I've upgraded the OS a few times, and updated Xcode as well, but have just not had any time to monkey around with my pet code project. Now that I've gotten some time, and I want to see what's new since March of '23, I finally remember where I stashed my code repository and decided to take it for a spin. Sure, I expect(ed) to see Xcode tell me that the version of Swift has been updated, and maybe some code constructs need to be fixed. But, NO, the code compiles fine. The first build attempt told me that I needed to update my provisioning profiles, and sign-in and agree to the updated developer agreements, which I did. Not so unhelpful was the code window in the debugger: libswiftCore.dylib`swift_willThrow: -> 0x1aeb7b2a0 <+0>: pacibsp 0x1aeb7b2a4 <+4>: str x19, [sp, #-0x20]! 0x1aeb7b2a8 <+8>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2ac <+12>: add x29, sp, #0x10 0x1aeb7b2b0 <+16>: adrp x8, 365651 0x1aeb7b2b4 <+20>: add x8, x8, #0x88 ; _swift_willThrow 0x1aeb7b2b8 <+24>: ldapr x8, [x8] 0x1aeb7b2bc <+28>: cbnz x8, 0x1aeb7b2cc ; <+44> 0x1aeb7b2c0 <+32>: ldp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2c4 <+36>: ldr x19, [sp], #0x20 0x1aeb7b2c8 <+40>: retab 0x1aeb7b2cc <+44>: mov x0, x21 0x1aeb7b2d0 <+48>: mov x19, x21 0x1aeb7b2d4 <+52>: blraaz x8 0x1aeb7b2d8 <+56>: mov x21, x19 0x1aeb7b2dc <+60>: b 0x1aeb7b2c0 ; <+32> Still not much to go on. I decide to see if it was a macOS vs. iOS issue, so did a clean build folder and tried running on an iPad simulator, "iPad (10th generation)". Now, I have a blank white screen on my simulator and not much to go on in the code window. import SwiftUI @main struct JottoApp: App { Thread1: Breakpoint 1.1 var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { UITableView.appearance().backgroundColor = UIColor.clear } } Any and all help with this error message will be appreciated.

Running macOS 15.4.1, Simulator 16.0 (1042.1), various iOS devices (iPhone 16, iPad 13" M4) I log into iCloud and enable iCloud Drive. Running the Files app, I noticed that I can click on "flat" documents (PDF, JPEG, etc) and they work. However, when I click on "package" documents (e.g. represented by a directory behind the scenes), I get a normal download progress, but then an alert "The operation could not be completed. No such file or directory". This seems to happen with all package documents, e.g. Keynote documents or Reality Composer objcap documents. It does not happen on actual devices logged into the same account. I've tried completely deleting and rebuilding the simulator instances in question, with no success.

Hello I have been developing an app that I want to deploy on the App Store through EAS cloud. My boss had purchased the apple developer account and invited me to a development team and I signed in with the same credentials. But when I try eas build and then select IOS as the platform I am getting this error shown in the image. Does this mean I have to purchase an apple developer account? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, This problem had gone away with the previous version, but its back with 16.3. When I first go into Xcode, it normally shows me a list of previous projects. This seems to work some of the time, and not others. When it doesn't, I Quit Xcode, go back in, then the list appears again. I also noticed each time I quit Xcode, I get the "beach ball icon" for 5-7 seconds and then it exits most of the time. When it doesn't, I have to issue a killall Xcode in the Terminal. I have a brand new Mac mini M4, 24GB RAM, 2 TB SSDD. Is anyone else having these issues? Thank you, Dan Uff

I can not accept new agreement on account web portal. When I navigated to the page, my personal team can not be seen. So I can not accept the newly agreement. I asked help via email/phone 3 months ago, and Chinese developer team just said you need to wait. I am wondering how long need to take actions or have a conclusion...

Hello, I represent a registered business operating under a developer account that has always followed Apple’s guidelines, complied fully with review requests, and submitted documentation whenever asked. We have never knowingly violated any policy, and we categorically deny any dishonest or fraudulent behavior. Last week, our developer account was suddenly terminated without any prior warning or opportunity to address concerns. The message provided no specific reason, no actionable details, and no path to resolution. This has left us completely locked out — unable to appeal through standard channels, and unable to contact anyone directly. It’s shocking, disorienting, and devastating to a legitimate business with employees, users, and operations depending on this platform. To make matters worse, this is not the first time. A previous termination notice was sent weeks ago and then — after we submitted a respectful and professional appeal — Apple quietly reversed the decision overnight, without any explanation or follow-up. We were left to assume it was a mistake. We had hoped that incident was rare and behind us. Now it’s happening again, without explanation, and without a human conversation. We are losing money and users every day, and we’re still in the dark about what Apple believes we did wrong — because no one has told us. We submitted a support ticket (ID: 102590329012), but have received no reply. We are committed to transparency, and we’re ready to provide any information needed. But we need someone to acknowledge this issue and help us find a path forward. If anyone has experienced something similar or knows of escalation methods that worked, please share. We’re doing everything we can to resolve this respectfully — but we are shocked and deeply concerned. Thank you.

Where are the local documentation files location on MacOS? None of the existing data on the internet is applicable anymore. Trying to bundle documentation for use in an LLM and the developer site is unusable for crawling. Thanks! *.docset

In the morning I enrolled in developer program and apple took my money from card and told me it is "being processed". But in the main page it says Purchase your membership. continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now purchase may take up to 48 hours to process. So I clicked again and purchased again. Still I got the same email and checked it says " being processed" but money taken twice!!! Why are you giving me same option if it is processed!! Very bad design!!! Also it is still not activated

Hello, I am attempting to enroll in the Apple Developer Program and have already added $100 to my Apple account. However, every time I try to proceed with the enrollment, I encounter an error. I have reached out to Apple Support multiple times, but the issue remains unresolved. Each time, the case is escalated to a senior representative, yet no clear solution has been provided. It feels as though the issue is being passed back and forth without accountability. Furthermore, I’m receiving conflicting guidance—Apple.com refers me to developer.apple.com, and vice versa—leaving me stuck without a resolution. I would appreciate your urgent assistance in identifying and resolving this issue so I can complete my enrollment. Best regards, Gulf Now

I am running Appium tests on an iOS 18 simulator, and I am encountering an intermittent issue where the device screen gets locked unexpectedly during the tests. The Appium logs show no errors or unusual activity, and all commands appear to be executed successfully. However, upon reviewing the device logs, I see entries related to the lock event, but the exact cause remains unclear. SpringBoard: (SpringBoard) [com.apple.SpringBoard:Common] lockUIFromSource:Boot options:{ SBUILockOptionsLockAutomaticallyKey: 1, SBUILockOptionsForceLockKey: 1, SBUILockOptionsUseScreenOffModeKey: 0 } SpringBoard: (SpringBoard) [com.apple.SpringBoard:Common] -[SBTelephonyManager inCall] 0 SpringBoard: (SpringBoard) [com.apple.SpringBoard:Common] LockUI from source: Now locking Has anyone experienced similar behavior with Appium on iOS 18, or could there be a setting or configuration in the simulator that is causing this issue?

SWIFTUI LAYERING ISSUE: BACKGROUND ALWAYS APPEARS IN FRONT OF CONTENT THE PROBLEM I'm facing a frustrating issue in my SwiftUI macOS app where a background RoundedRectangle is consistently displaying in front of my content instead of behind it. This isn't an intermittent issue - it never works correctly. The colored background is always rendering on top of the text and icons, making the content completely unreadable. Here's my current implementation: private func sceneRow(for scene: Scene, index: Int) -> some View { ZStack(alignment: .leading) { // Hidden text to force view updates when state changes Text("$$noteStateTracker)") .frame(width: 0, height: 0) .opacity(0) // 1. Background rectangle explicitly at the bottom layer RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 6) .fill(sceneBackgroundColor(for: scene)) .padding(.horizontal, 4) // 2. Content explicitly on top HStack { Image(systemName: "line.3.horizontal") .foregroundColor(.blue) .frame(width: 20) Text("$$index). $$truncateTitle(scene.title.isEmpty ? "Untitled Scene" : scene.title))") .foregroundColor(selectedScene?.id == scene.id ? .blue : .primary) .fontWeight(selectedScene?.id == scene.id ? .bold : .regular) Spacer() if scene.isComplete { Image(systemName: "checkmark.circle.fill") .foregroundColor(.green) .font(.system(size: 12)) .padding(.trailing, 8) } } .padding(.vertical, 4) .padding(.leading, 30) } .contentShape(Rectangle()) .onTapGesture { selectedChapter = chapter selectedScene = scene } .onDrag { NSItemProvider(object: "$$scene.id.uuidString)|scene" as NSString) } .onDrop(of: ["public.text"], isTargeted: Binding( get: { hoveredSceneID == scene.id }, set: { isTargeted in hoveredSceneID = isTargeted ? scene.id : nil } )) { providers in handleSceneDrop(providers, scene, chapter) } .contextMenu { Button("Rename Scene") { sceneToRename = scene newSceneTitleForRename = scene.title newSceneDescriptionForRename = scene.description isRenamingScene = true } Button(role: .destructive) { confirmDeleteScene(scene, chapter) } label: { Label("Delete Scene", systemImage: "trash") } } } Despite explicitly ordering elements in the ZStack with the background first (which should place it at the bottom of the stack), the RoundedRectangle always renders on top of the text and icons. WHAT I'VE TRIED I've attempted multiple approaches but nothing works: ZStack with explicit zIndex values ZStack { RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 6) .fill(sceneBackgroundColor(for: scene)) .padding(.horizontal, 4) .zIndex(1) HStack { /* content */ } .padding(.vertical, 4) .padding(.leading, 30) .zIndex(2) } No effect - background still appears on top. Using .background() modifier instead of ZStack HStack { /* content */ } .padding(.vertical, 4) .padding(.leading, 30) .background( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 6) .fill(sceneBackgroundColor(for: scene)) .padding(.horizontal, 4) ) Same issue - the background still renders in front of the content. Custom container view with GeometryReader struct SceneRowContainer: View { var background: Background var content: Content init(@ViewBuilder background: @escaping () -> Background, @ViewBuilder content: @escaping () -> Content) { self.background = background() self.content = content() } var body: some View { GeometryReader { geometry in // Background rendered first background .frame(width: geometry.size.width, height: geometry.size.height) .position(x: geometry.size.width/2, y: geometry.size.height/2) // Content rendered second content .frame(width: geometry.size.width, height: geometry.size.height) .position(x: geometry.size.width/2, y: geometry.size.height/2) } } } This changed the sizing of the components but didn't fix the layering issue. NSViewRepresentable approach I tried implementing a custom NSViewRepresentable that manually manages the view hierarchy: struct LayerOrderView: NSViewRepresentable { let background: () -> Background let content: () -> Content func makeNSView(context: Context) -> NSView { let containerView = NSView() // Add background hosting view first (should be behind) let backgroundView = NSHostingView(rootView: background()) containerView.addSubview(backgroundView) // Add content hosting view second (should be in front) let contentView = NSHostingView(rootView: content()) containerView.addSubview(contentView) // Setup constraints... return containerView } func updateNSView(_ nsView: NSView, context: Context) { // Update views... } } Even this direct AppKit approach didn't work correctly. Using .drawingGroup() ZStack { // Background RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 6) .fill(sceneBackgroundColor(for: scene)) .padding(.horizontal, 4) // Content HStack { /* content */ } .padding(.vertical, 4) .padding(.leading, 30) } .drawingGroup(opaque: false) Still no success - the background remains in front. PROJECT CONTEXT macOS app using SwiftUI Scene contents need to be displayed on top of colored backgrounds The view uses state tracking with a noteStateTracker UUID that updates when certain changes occur App needs to maintain gesture recognition for taps, drag and drop, and context menus The issue is completely reproducible 100% of the time - the background is always in front WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE I need a reliable solution to ensure that the background color (RoundedRectangle) renders behind the HStack content. The current behavior makes the text content completely unreadable since it's hidden behind the colored background. Has anyone found a workable solution for this seemingly basic layering problem in SwiftUI on macOS? Thank you for any help, Benjamin

I have been trying to enrol for an apple developer program for more than 2 weeks now. The goal is to enrol as a company. We got a DUNS number and everything. 1st attempt: With a new appleid account based on a company address, done through a browser. Payment details submitted, got thank you page, a week later nothing... Apple support suggests doing this on the app. 2nd attempt: WIthdrew application, used a mobile device and logon with the new appleid on the device. Downloaded apple developer app. Logged on the app with the same apple id. App asked me to take pictures of my id card, failed to submit with message "Unable to send information - Your information could not be sent due to a connection error" Googled the above saw 100s of people facing the same issue, apple developer forum is flooded with people that are stuck to either the first or the second scenario. 3rd attempt: Used my existing personal appleid to create an account. Again either stuck on 1st or 2nd scenario 4rd attempt: Created a brand new apple id with a new email address. Again stuck in either the first or second scenario. Dear Apple, why are you making this so complicated? Apple support, can we get some individual support here and not just the canned replies? Enrolment IDs and case numbers available upon request. Many thanks.
