Disambiguation for .system.search AppIntent
I'd like to display a list of items to disambiguate for a fulltext search intent. Using the Apple AppIntentsSampleApp, I added TrailSearch.swift: import AppIntents @AssistantIntent(schema: .system.search) struct TrailSearch: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Search Trail" static let description = IntentDescription("Search trail by name.", categoryName: "Discover", resultValueName: "Trail") @Parameter(title: "Trail") var criteria: StringSearchCriteria func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<TrailEntity> { if criteria.term.isEmpty { throw $criteria.needsValueError(IntentDialog("need value")) } let trails = TrailDataManager.shared.trails { trail in trail.name.contains(criteria.term) } if trails.count > 1 { throw $criteria.needsDisambiguationError(among: trails.map { StringSearchCriteria(term: $0.name) }) } else if let firstTrail = trails.first { return .result(value: TrailEntity(trail: firstTrail)) } throw $criteria.needsValueError(IntentDialog("Nothing found")) } } Now when I type "trail" which matches several trails and thus lets us enter the disambiguation code path, the Shortcut app just displays the dialog title but no disambiguation items to pick from. Is this by design or a bug? (filed as FB17412220)

How to run HKWorkoutSession on watch without affecting activity rings?
My research group is using watch sensors (accelerometers, gyroscopes) to track wrist motion to detect and measure eating. https://cecas.clemson.edu/ahoover/bite-counter/ We are running an HKWorkoutSession on the watch so that the app can run for an extended period of time (up to 12 hr) and continue to sense and process motion data. Our app is adding to the activity rings, making it look like the user is exercising the entire time our app is running. Is there a method to prevent our app from contributing to the activity ring measures?

Can't change iPhone watch app complication picker app name
I have an objective-c watch app and have added a swift widget style compilation to it and am having problems. The complication works fine but the name in the iPhone watch app complication picker stubbornly remains as the watchkit app name despite me trying various ways of changing it. Here are the various CF bundle name and display name values I am using: phone app values CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1 CFBundleName - $(PRODUCT_NAME) CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper watchkit app CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp CFBundleName - Tennis Scorekeeper CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper WatchKit extension CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp.watchkitextension CFBundleName - Tennis Scorekeeper CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper __Watchkit complication __ CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp.watchkitextension.Tennis-Watch-V1-Complication Changing the values in the complication doesn't seem to matter. Every other name in both my iPhone and watch apps are as expected. ChatGPT suggested that I try adding a localized name in the watchkit app but that didn't seem to do much of anything useful. I have run this though Chat quite a bit to see if I could get any accidental insights that way and while it has been interesting, it has also been not terribly helpful. I didn't post any of the complication code because that seems to be fine. However, I can do that if needed. The complication works as intended (starts the app). The various names everywhere else show up as intended. It's just that this one name refuses to be overridden. Thoughts?

Determine outgoing flow source IPs without allowing data leakage using NEFilterDataProvider
I'm looking for help with a network extension filtering issue. Specifically, we have a subclass of NEFilterDataProvider that is used to filter flows based upon a set of rules, including source IP and destination IP. We've run into an issue where the source IP is frequently 0.0.0.0 (or the IPv6 equivalent) on outgoing flows. This has made it so rules based upon source IP don't work. This is also an issue as we report these connections, but we're lacking critical data. We were able to work around the issue somewhat by keeping a list of flows that we allow that we periodically check to see if the source IP is available, and then report after it becomes available. We also considered doing a "peekBytes" to allow a bit of data to flow and then recheck the flow, but we don't want to allow data leakage on connections that should be blocked because of the source IP. Is there a way to force the operating system or network extension frameworks to determine the source IP for an outbound flow without allowing any bytes to flow to the network? STEPS TO REPRODUCE Create a network filtering extension for filtering flows using NEFilterDataProvider See that when handleNewFlow: is called, the outgoing flow lacks the source IP (is 0.0.0.0) in most cases There is this post that is discussing a similar question, though for a slightly different reason. I imagine the answer to this and the other post will be related, at least as far as NEFilterDataProvider:handleNewFlow not having source IP is considered. Thanks!

ApplePay: Flexible payments/scheduling
On Applepay's docs it talks about the ability to do "flexible" payments and scheduling for future purchases. We need to be able to make only a single approval of an Apple payment for multiple submissions later on. Think, deferred payments at an arbitrary schedule without presenting the ApplePay dialog each and every time. The docs suggest that may be possible, but are maddeningly vague on how to do that. Is it possible or not? Can we store an approved merchant's token for example and leverage that for future transactions?

Issues with Integration of Promotional Offers in React Native app
Hi All, We are trying to integrate Promotional Offer in our app, We have a React Native app and are using react-native-iap for handling our in app purchases, as per the documentation we are generating signature in our BE and passing the proper details to the function as well, but for subscription request which have offer applied we are getting the apple pop up properly as well with offer details but when trying to subscribe it gives us SKErrroDomain: 12, for subscription without applying offer the subscription goes through but when we apply the offer we get the above error. Our app is currently in Development Stages and has not been sent for review sam for our subscription plans as well. Please let me know what could be the probable cause for this and help us resolve the issue. This is the code snippet of ours for the front end : export const buySubscription = async (subscriptionData: any) => { try { if (subscriptionData.offer_id) { const response = await getSubscriptionSignature( subscriptionData.productId, subscriptionData.offer_id, ); const offerData = response?.data; const offer = { identifier: offerData?.offer_id, keyIdentifier: offerData?.key_id, nonce: offerData?.nonce, signature: offerData?.signature, timestamp: Number(offerData?.timestamp), }; await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId, withOffer: offer, }); } else { await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId }); } } catch (err) { logger.error('Subscription error: ' + JSON.stringify(err)); throw err; } }; and 
from my python Backend which generates the signature:

def generate_signature(self, product_id: str, offer_id: str) -> dict: """ Generate signature for Apple StoreKit promotional offers. Args: product_id: The product identifier from App Store Connect offer_id: The promotional offer identifier Returns: dict: Contains signature and required metadata Reference: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/storekit/in-app_purchase/original_api_for_in-app_purchase/subscriptions_and_offers/implementing_promotional_offers_in_your_app """ try: # Generate UUID without dashes and use as nonce nonce = str(uuid.uuid4()) timestamp = get_current_time_ms() # milliseconds # Create the payload string in exact order required by Apple payload_components = [ self.bundle_id, # App Bundle ID self.key_id, # Key ID from App Store Connect product_id, # Product identifier offer_id, # Promotional offer identifier nonce, # UUID without dashes str(timestamp) # Current timestamp in milliseconds ] payload_str = "\u2063".join(payload_components) # Use Unicode separator logger.debug(f"Signing payload: {payload_str}") # Create SHA256 hash of the payload digest = hashes.Hash(hashes.SHA256()) digest.update(payload_str.encode('utf-8')) payload_hash = digest.finalize() # Sign the hash using ES256 (ECDSA with SHA-256) signature = self.private_key.sign( data=payload_hash, signature_algorithm=ec.ECDSA(hashes.SHA256()) ) # Encode signature in base64 signature_b64 = base64.b64encode(signature).decode('utf-8') logger.info(f"Generated signature for product {product_id} and offer {offer_id}") return { "key_id": self.key_id, # Changed to match Apple's naming "nonce": nonce, # UUID without dashes "timestamp": timestamp, # As integer "signature": signature_b64, # Base64 encoded signature "product_id": product_id, # Changed to match Apple's naming "offer_id": offer_id # Changed to match Apple's naming } except Exception as e: logger.error(f"Failed to generate signature: {str(e)}") raise HTTPException( status_code=500, detail=f"Failed to generate signature: {str(e)}" )

Calling [NSUserDefaults objectForKey:] crashes as it attempts to insert nil object into dictionary
Hi, I work at OneSignal, a third-party SDK, and have the following two crash reports submitted by a client for the same issue. Because the crash originates from our SDK, even if the root cause may be elsewhere, the onus is on our team to try to resolve this crash. Additionally, my information is limited as this is not our own crash report. I'm trying to figure out why this crash happens and how we can address it within our SDK. Crash Reported: Fatal Exception: NSInvalidArgumentException [NSMutableDictionary __addObject:forKey:]: object cannot be nil Context: Our SDK makes a call to [NSUserDefaults(NSUserDefaults) objectForKey:] on the standardUserDefaults and passes in a non-null key. It appears further up the call stack, a null value is being added to a dictionary. I assume this is the innards of how the search list is generated. Additional Information: The client states that it seems to happen only once per user and the scale is not extremely high but it is increasing. They are unsure what happened and when. They don't have much information about the devices except it has happened on iOS 18.

How is Security Delay still so broken?
I'm sitting at my house and trying to sign my test device out of my apple ID so I can sign into a Sandbox user, but now I have an hour to kill because of this terribly broken "security" feature that thinks it's in an unfamiliar location, despite being at the only location it's ever known. Looks like I'll just be disabling this feature all together. Especially as a device with Developer Mode enabled, which gets reset regularly, there should be additional options here. Come on!

Not receiving App Store Server Notifications for failed transactions
We are currently integrating In-App Purchases for our app and have configured App Store Server Notifications (v2) in the Sandbox environment. During testing, we observed the following issue: When a transaction is cancelled, declined, or pending (e.g., Ask to Buy flows or authorization pending), No App Store Server Notification is sent to our webhook endpoint. We only receive webhook events where the status is "purchased". This becomes a critical problem for us because our backend must accurately track transaction states including failed and pending purchases, especially for wallet top-up use cases. Additionally, we tried mocking failed transactions (via Xcode local environment and turning off In-App Purchases from Developer Settings) to simulate a technical failure scenario. Even in these cases, no webhook notification was received when the purchase failed server-side. Is it expected behavior in Sandbox that only successful transactions ("purchased") trigger webhooks? Are failed or pending transactions suppressed in Sandbox intentionally? Will webhook behavior be different in Production (i.e., will we receive webhook notifications for failures there)? Is there any extra configuration or entitlement needed to fully test failure scenarios via webhooks in Sandbox?

Can't remove Waze from Carplay
Since updating to iOS18.4.1, I can no longer remove Waze from operating in Carplay. It was working perfectly prior to this update where I could view the Waze map on my iPhone 12 Pro, rather than the Carplay map. I prefer to use my iPhone map rather than the Carplay map. Now as soon as I open Waze, despite my having customized and removing it from the Carplay list, while the icon is removed, it continues to open in Carplay! Help! I cannot use Waze using the Carplay maps! Anyone have a solution?

AppStore response times for the store test environment to make purchases is very long.
Currently, over the xcode environment to do the testing of product subscriptions through appstore are working correctly using the storeKit. When deployed in testflight to do the testing over the integration environment, the store response times are being excessively high, in excess of 20 minutes. This behavior is not replicated on Xcode, and is happening on recent versions uploaded to testflight, as earlier versions that were already tested and are currently in production. In addition the communication between the appstore webhook and the BE is also failing in this environment. It is being blocked to generate any test to be able to launch to production.

Core Data and Swift 6 concurrency: returning an NSManagedObject
We're in the process of migrating our app to the Swift 6 language mode. I have hit a road block that I cannot wrap my head around, and it concerns Core Data and how we work with NSManagedObject instances. Greatly simplied, our Core Data stack looks like this: class CoreDataStack { private let persistentContainer: NSPersistentContainer var viewContext: NSManagedObjectContext { persistentContainer.viewContext } } For accessing the database, we provide Controller classes such as e.g. class PersonController { private let coreDataStack: CoreDataStack func fetchPerson(byName name: String) async throws -> Person? { try await coreDataStack.viewContext.perform { let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest<Person>() fetchRequest.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "name == %@", name) return try fetchRequest.execute().first } } } Our view controllers use such controllers to fetch objects and populate their UI with it: class MyViewController: UIViewController { private let chatController: PersonController private let ageLabel: UILabel func populateAgeLabel(name: String) { Task { let person = try? await chatController.fetchPerson(byName: name) ageLabel.text = "\(person?.age ?? 0)" } } } This works very well, and there are no concurrency problems since the managed objects are fetched from the view context and accessed only in the main thread. When turning on Swift 6 language mode, however, the compiler complains about the line calling the controller method: Non-sendable result type 'Person?' cannot be sent from nonisolated context in call to instance method 'fetchPerson(byName:)' Ok, fair enough, NSManagedObject is not Sendable. No biggie, just add @MainActor to the controller method, so it can be called from view controllers which are also main actor. However, now the compiler shows the same error at the controller method calling viewContext.perform: Non-sendable result type 'Person?' cannot be sent from nonisolated context in call to instance method 'perform(schedule:_:)' And now I'm stumped. Does this mean NSManageObject instances cannot even be returned from calls to NSManagedObjectContext.perform? Ever? Even though in this case, @MainActor matches the context's actor isolation (since it's the view context)? Of course, in this simple example the controller method could just return the age directly, and more complex scenarios could return Sendable data structures that are instantiated inside the perform closure. But is that really the only legal solution? That would mean a huge refactoring challenge for our app, since we use NSManageObject instances fetched from the view context everywhere. That's what the view context is for, right? tl;dr: is it possible to return NSManagedObject instances fetched from the view context with Swift 6 strict concurrency enabled, and if so how?

Accuracy of IBI Values Measured by Apple Watch
I am currently developing an app that measures HRV to estimate stress levels. To align the values more closely with those from Galaxy devices, I decided not to use the heartRateVariabilitySDNN value provided by HealthKit. Instead, I extracted individual interbeat intervals (IBI) using the HKHeartBeatSeries data. Can I obtain accurate IBI data using this method? If not, I would like to know how I can retrieve more precise data. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here is a sample code I tried. @Observable class HealthKitManager: ObservableObject { let healthStore = HKHealthStore() var ibiValues: [Double] = [] var isAuthorized = false func requestAuthorization() { let types = Set([ HKSeriesType.heartbeat(), HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN)!, ]) healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: nil, read: types) { success, error in DispatchQueue.main.async { self.isAuthorized = success if success { self.fetchIBIData() } } } } func fetchIBIData() { var timePoints: [TimeInterval] = [] var absoluteStartTime: Date? let dateFormatter = DateFormatter() dateFormatter.timeZone = TimeZone(identifier: "Asia/Seoul") dateFormatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS" var calendar = Calendar.current calendar.timeZone = TimeZone(identifier: "Asia/Seoul") ?? .current var components = DateComponents() components.year = 2025 components.month = 4 components.day = 3 components.hour = 15 components.minute = 52 components.second = 0 let startTime = calendar.date(from: components)! components.hour = 16 components.minute = 0 let endTime = calendar.date(from: components)! let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startTime, end: endTime, options: .strictStartDate) let sortDescriptor = NSSortDescriptor(key: HKSampleSortIdentifierStartDate, ascending: false) let query = HKSampleQuery(sampleType: HKSeriesType.heartbeat(), predicate: predicate, limit: HKObjectQueryNoLimit, sortDescriptors: [sortDescriptor]) { (_, samples, _) in if let sample = samples?.first as? HKHeartbeatSeriesSample { absoluteStartTime = sample.startDate let startDateKST = dateFormatter.string(from: sample.startDate) let endDateKST = dateFormatter.string(from: sample.endDate) print("series start(KST):\(startDateKST)\tend(KST):\(endDateKST)") let seriesQuery = HKHeartbeatSeriesQuery(heartbeatSeries: sample) { query, timeSinceSeriesStart, precededByGap, done, error in if !precededByGap { timePoints.append(timeSinceSeriesStart) } if done { for i in 1..<timePoints.count { let ibi = (timePoints[i] - timePoints[i-1]) * 1000 // Convert to milliseconds // Calculate absolute time for current beat if let startTime = absoluteStartTime { let beatTime = startTime.addingTimeInterval(timePoints[i]) let beatTimeString = dateFormatter.string(from: beatTime) print("IBI: \(String(format: "%.2f", ibi)) ms at \(beatTimeString)") } self.ibiValues.append(ibi) } } } self.healthStore.execute(seriesQuery) } else { print("No samples found for the specified time range") } } self.healthStore.execute(query) } }

BLE timeout issue when connecting two devices on iOS 18 (but not iOS 16)
Hi, We’re developing a BLE peripheral device and encountered a connection issue when connecting two devices (Device A and Device B) simultaneously to an iOS device. Problem: On iOS 18, we are experiencing occasional BLE timeouts and disconnections when both devices are connected at the same time. On iOS 16, we did not encounter this issue under the same conditions. What we’ve tried: Adjusted the connection interval from 30ms to 15ms. This seems to have improved stability somewhat. However, we still observe intermittent timeout/disconnection issues. Questions: Are there any known changes in BLE connection handling or timing constraints in iOS 18? Are there recommended connection parameter settings (interval, latency, timeout, etc.) for multi-device BLE connections in iOS? Is there a way to debug or log more details about the disconnection reasons on the iOS side? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Disambiguation for .system.search AppIntent
I'd like to display a list of items to disambiguate for a fulltext search intent. Using the Apple AppIntentsSampleApp, I added TrailSearch.swift: import AppIntents @AssistantIntent(schema: .system.search) struct TrailSearch: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Search Trail" static let description = IntentDescription("Search trail by name.", categoryName: "Discover", resultValueName: "Trail") @Parameter(title: "Trail") var criteria: StringSearchCriteria func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<TrailEntity> { if criteria.term.isEmpty { throw $criteria.needsValueError(IntentDialog("need value")) } let trails = TrailDataManager.shared.trails { trail in trail.name.contains(criteria.term) } if trails.count > 1 { throw $criteria.needsDisambiguationError(among: trails.map { StringSearchCriteria(term: $0.name) }) } else if let firstTrail = trails.first { return .result(value: TrailEntity(trail: firstTrail)) } throw $criteria.needsValueError(IntentDialog("Nothing found")) } } Now when I type "trail" which matches several trails and thus lets us enter the disambiguation code path, the Shortcut app just displays the dialog title but no disambiguation items to pick from. Is this by design or a bug? (filed as FB17412220)

Can't change iPhone watch app complication picker app name
I have an objective-c watch app and have added a swift widget style compilation to it and am having problems. The complication works fine but the name in the iPhone watch app complication picker stubbornly remains as the watchkit app name despite me trying various ways of changing it. Here are the various CF bundle name and display name values I am using: phone app values CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1 CFBundleName - $(PRODUCT_NAME) CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper watchkit app CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp CFBundleName - Tennis Scorekeeper CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper WatchKit extension CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp.watchkitextension CFBundleName - Tennis Scorekeeper CFBundleDisplayName - Tennis Scorekeeper __Watchkit complication __ CFBundleIdentifier - com.Distribution-Systems-Associates.Tennis-Watch-v1.watchkitapp.watchkitextension.Tennis-Watch-V1-Complication Changing the values in the complication doesn't seem to matter. Every other name in both my iPhone and watch apps are as expected. ChatGPT suggested that I try adding a localized name in the watchkit app but that didn't seem to do much of anything useful. I have run this though Chat quite a bit to see if I could get any accidental insights that way and while it has been interesting, it has also been not terribly helpful. I didn't post any of the complication code because that seems to be fine. However, I can do that if needed. The complication works as intended (starts the app). The various names everywhere else show up as intended. It's just that this one name refuses to be overridden. Thoughts?

Determine outgoing flow source IPs without allowing data leakage using NEFilterDataProvider
I'm looking for help with a network extension filtering issue. Specifically, we have a subclass of NEFilterDataProvider that is used to filter flows based upon a set of rules, including source IP and destination IP. We've run into an issue where the source IP is frequently 0.0.0.0 (or the IPv6 equivalent) on outgoing flows. This has made it so rules based upon source IP don't work. This is also an issue as we report these connections, but we're lacking critical data. We were able to work around the issue somewhat by keeping a list of flows that we allow that we periodically check to see if the source IP is available, and then report after it becomes available. We also considered doing a "peekBytes" to allow a bit of data to flow and then recheck the flow, but we don't want to allow data leakage on connections that should be blocked because of the source IP. Is there a way to force the operating system or network extension frameworks to determine the source IP for an outbound flow without allowing any bytes to flow to the network? STEPS TO REPRODUCE Create a network filtering extension for filtering flows using NEFilterDataProvider See that when handleNewFlow: is called, the outgoing flow lacks the source IP (is 0.0.0.0) in most cases There is this post that is discussing a similar question, though for a slightly different reason. I imagine the answer to this and the other post will be related, at least as far as NEFilterDataProvider:handleNewFlow not having source IP is considered. Thanks!

ApplePay: Flexible payments/scheduling
On Applepay's docs it talks about the ability to do "flexible" payments and scheduling for future purchases. We need to be able to make only a single approval of an Apple payment for multiple submissions later on. Think, deferred payments at an arbitrary schedule without presenting the ApplePay dialog each and every time. The docs suggest that may be possible, but are maddeningly vague on how to do that. Is it possible or not? Can we store an approved merchant's token for example and leverage that for future transactions?

Issues with Integration of Promotional Offers in React Native app
Hi All, We are trying to integrate Promotional Offer in our app, We have a React Native app and are using react-native-iap for handling our in app purchases, as per the documentation we are generating signature in our BE and passing the proper details to the function as well, but for subscription request which have offer applied we are getting the apple pop up properly as well with offer details but when trying to subscribe it gives us SKErrroDomain: 12, for subscription without applying offer the subscription goes through but when we apply the offer we get the above error. Our app is currently in Development Stages and has not been sent for review sam for our subscription plans as well. Please let me know what could be the probable cause for this and help us resolve the issue. This is the code snippet of ours for the front end : export const buySubscription = async (subscriptionData: any) => { try { if (subscriptionData.offer_id) { const response = await getSubscriptionSignature( subscriptionData.productId, subscriptionData.offer_id, ); const offerData = response?.data; const offer = { identifier: offerData?.offer_id, keyIdentifier: offerData?.key_id, nonce: offerData?.nonce, signature: offerData?.signature, timestamp: Number(offerData?.timestamp), }; await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId, withOffer: offer, }); } else { await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId }); } } catch (err) { logger.error('Subscription error: ' + JSON.stringify(err)); throw err; } }; and 
from my python Backend which generates the signature:

def generate_signature(self, product_id: str, offer_id: str) -> dict: """ Generate signature for Apple StoreKit promotional offers. Args: product_id: The product identifier from App Store Connect offer_id: The promotional offer identifier Returns: dict: Contains signature and required metadata Reference: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/storekit/in-app_purchase/original_api_for_in-app_purchase/subscriptions_and_offers/implementing_promotional_offers_in_your_app """ try: # Generate UUID without dashes and use as nonce nonce = str(uuid.uuid4()) timestamp = get_current_time_ms() # milliseconds # Create the payload string in exact order required by Apple payload_components = [ self.bundle_id, # App Bundle ID self.key_id, # Key ID from App Store Connect product_id, # Product identifier offer_id, # Promotional offer identifier nonce, # UUID without dashes str(timestamp) # Current timestamp in milliseconds ] payload_str = "\u2063".join(payload_components) # Use Unicode separator logger.debug(f"Signing payload: {payload_str}") # Create SHA256 hash of the payload digest = hashes.Hash(hashes.SHA256()) digest.update(payload_str.encode('utf-8')) payload_hash = digest.finalize() # Sign the hash using ES256 (ECDSA with SHA-256) signature = self.private_key.sign( data=payload_hash, signature_algorithm=ec.ECDSA(hashes.SHA256()) ) # Encode signature in base64 signature_b64 = base64.b64encode(signature).decode('utf-8') logger.info(f"Generated signature for product {product_id} and offer {offer_id}") return { "key_id": self.key_id, # Changed to match Apple's naming "nonce": nonce, # UUID without dashes "timestamp": timestamp, # As integer "signature": signature_b64, # Base64 encoded signature "product_id": product_id, # Changed to match Apple's naming "offer_id": offer_id # Changed to match Apple's naming } except Exception as e: logger.error(f"Failed to generate signature: {str(e)}") raise HTTPException( status_code=500, detail=f"Failed to generate signature: {str(e)}" )

Including Place URL in server API response?
Hello, Is it possible to retrieve URLs (the URL associated for the specified location) for the Place object when you query the Apple Maps Server APIs? They are available when you make a MKLocalSearch.Request() directly in Swift. We have both iOS and Android apps, and it's not currently possible to get the URLs on Android. Thanks!

Calling [NSUserDefaults objectForKey:] crashes as it attempts to insert nil object into dictionary
Hi, I work at OneSignal, a third-party SDK, and have the following two crash reports submitted by a client for the same issue. Because the crash originates from our SDK, even if the root cause may be elsewhere, the onus is on our team to try to resolve this crash. Additionally, my information is limited as this is not our own crash report. I'm trying to figure out why this crash happens and how we can address it within our SDK. Crash Reported: Fatal Exception: NSInvalidArgumentException [NSMutableDictionary __addObject:forKey:]: object cannot be nil Context: Our SDK makes a call to [NSUserDefaults(NSUserDefaults) objectForKey:] on the standardUserDefaults and passes in a non-null key. It appears further up the call stack, a null value is being added to a dictionary. I assume this is the innards of how the search list is generated. Additional Information: The client states that it seems to happen only once per user and the scale is not extremely high but it is increasing. They are unsure what happened and when. They don't have much information about the devices except it has happened on iOS 18.

How is Security Delay still so broken?
I'm sitting at my house and trying to sign my test device out of my apple ID so I can sign into a Sandbox user, but now I have an hour to kill because of this terribly broken "security" feature that thinks it's in an unfamiliar location, despite being at the only location it's ever known. Looks like I'll just be disabling this feature all together. Especially as a device with Developer Mode enabled, which gets reset regularly, there should be additional options here. Come on!

Not receiving App Store Server Notifications for failed transactions
We are currently integrating In-App Purchases for our app and have configured App Store Server Notifications (v2) in the Sandbox environment. During testing, we observed the following issue: When a transaction is cancelled, declined, or pending (e.g., Ask to Buy flows or authorization pending), No App Store Server Notification is sent to our webhook endpoint. We only receive webhook events where the status is "purchased". This becomes a critical problem for us because our backend must accurately track transaction states including failed and pending purchases, especially for wallet top-up use cases. Additionally, we tried mocking failed transactions (via Xcode local environment and turning off In-App Purchases from Developer Settings) to simulate a technical failure scenario. Even in these cases, no webhook notification was received when the purchase failed server-side. Is it expected behavior in Sandbox that only successful transactions ("purchased") trigger webhooks? Are failed or pending transactions suppressed in Sandbox intentionally? Will webhook behavior be different in Production (i.e., will we receive webhook notifications for failures there)? Is there any extra configuration or entitlement needed to fully test failure scenarios via webhooks in Sandbox?

Can't remove Waze from Carplay
Since updating to iOS18.4.1, I can no longer remove Waze from operating in Carplay. It was working perfectly prior to this update where I could view the Waze map on my iPhone 12 Pro, rather than the Carplay map. I prefer to use my iPhone map rather than the Carplay map. Now as soon as I open Waze, despite my having customized and removing it from the Carplay list, while the icon is removed, it continues to open in Carplay! Help! I cannot use Waze using the Carplay maps! Anyone have a solution?

AppStore response times for the store test environment to make purchases is very long.
Currently, over the xcode environment to do the testing of product subscriptions through appstore are working correctly using the storeKit. When deployed in testflight to do the testing over the integration environment, the store response times are being excessively high, in excess of 20 minutes. This behavior is not replicated on Xcode, and is happening on recent versions uploaded to testflight, as earlier versions that were already tested and are currently in production. In addition the communication between the appstore webhook and the BE is also failing in this environment. It is being blocked to generate any test to be able to launch to production.

Core Data and Swift 6 concurrency: returning an NSManagedObject
We're in the process of migrating our app to the Swift 6 language mode. I have hit a road block that I cannot wrap my head around, and it concerns Core Data and how we work with NSManagedObject instances. Greatly simplied, our Core Data stack looks like this: class CoreDataStack { private let persistentContainer: NSPersistentContainer var viewContext: NSManagedObjectContext { persistentContainer.viewContext } } For accessing the database, we provide Controller classes such as e.g. class PersonController { private let coreDataStack: CoreDataStack func fetchPerson(byName name: String) async throws -> Person? { try await coreDataStack.viewContext.perform { let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest<Person>() fetchRequest.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "name == %@", name) return try fetchRequest.execute().first } } } Our view controllers use such controllers to fetch objects and populate their UI with it: class MyViewController: UIViewController { private let chatController: PersonController private let ageLabel: UILabel func populateAgeLabel(name: String) { Task { let person = try? await chatController.fetchPerson(byName: name) ageLabel.text = "\(person?.age ?? 0)" } } } This works very well, and there are no concurrency problems since the managed objects are fetched from the view context and accessed only in the main thread. When turning on Swift 6 language mode, however, the compiler complains about the line calling the controller method: Non-sendable result type 'Person?' cannot be sent from nonisolated context in call to instance method 'fetchPerson(byName:)' Ok, fair enough, NSManagedObject is not Sendable. No biggie, just add @MainActor to the controller method, so it can be called from view controllers which are also main actor. However, now the compiler shows the same error at the controller method calling viewContext.perform: Non-sendable result type 'Person?' cannot be sent from nonisolated context in call to instance method 'perform(schedule:_:)' And now I'm stumped. Does this mean NSManageObject instances cannot even be returned from calls to NSManagedObjectContext.perform? Ever? Even though in this case, @MainActor matches the context's actor isolation (since it's the view context)? Of course, in this simple example the controller method could just return the age directly, and more complex scenarios could return Sendable data structures that are instantiated inside the perform closure. But is that really the only legal solution? That would mean a huge refactoring challenge for our app, since we use NSManageObject instances fetched from the view context everywhere. That's what the view context is for, right? tl;dr: is it possible to return NSManagedObject instances fetched from the view context with Swift 6 strict concurrency enabled, and if so how?

Accuracy of IBI Values Measured by Apple Watch
I am currently developing an app that measures HRV to estimate stress levels. To align the values more closely with those from Galaxy devices, I decided not to use the heartRateVariabilitySDNN value provided by HealthKit. Instead, I extracted individual interbeat intervals (IBI) using the HKHeartBeatSeries data. Can I obtain accurate IBI data using this method? If not, I would like to know how I can retrieve more precise data. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here is a sample code I tried. @Observable class HealthKitManager: ObservableObject { let healthStore = HKHealthStore() var ibiValues: [Double] = [] var isAuthorized = false func requestAuthorization() { let types = Set([ HKSeriesType.heartbeat(), HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN)!, ]) healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: nil, read: types) { success, error in DispatchQueue.main.async { self.isAuthorized = success if success { self.fetchIBIData() } } } } func fetchIBIData() { var timePoints: [TimeInterval] = [] var absoluteStartTime: Date? let dateFormatter = DateFormatter() dateFormatter.timeZone = TimeZone(identifier: "Asia/Seoul") dateFormatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS" var calendar = Calendar.current calendar.timeZone = TimeZone(identifier: "Asia/Seoul") ?? .current var components = DateComponents() components.year = 2025 components.month = 4 components.day = 3 components.hour = 15 components.minute = 52 components.second = 0 let startTime = calendar.date(from: components)! components.hour = 16 components.minute = 0 let endTime = calendar.date(from: components)! let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startTime, end: endTime, options: .strictStartDate) let sortDescriptor = NSSortDescriptor(key: HKSampleSortIdentifierStartDate, ascending: false) let query = HKSampleQuery(sampleType: HKSeriesType.heartbeat(), predicate: predicate, limit: HKObjectQueryNoLimit, sortDescriptors: [sortDescriptor]) { (_, samples, _) in if let sample = samples?.first as? HKHeartbeatSeriesSample { absoluteStartTime = sample.startDate let startDateKST = dateFormatter.string(from: sample.startDate) let endDateKST = dateFormatter.string(from: sample.endDate) print("series start(KST):\(startDateKST)\tend(KST):\(endDateKST)") let seriesQuery = HKHeartbeatSeriesQuery(heartbeatSeries: sample) { query, timeSinceSeriesStart, precededByGap, done, error in if !precededByGap { timePoints.append(timeSinceSeriesStart) } if done { for i in 1..<timePoints.count { let ibi = (timePoints[i] - timePoints[i-1]) * 1000 // Convert to milliseconds // Calculate absolute time for current beat if let startTime = absoluteStartTime { let beatTime = startTime.addingTimeInterval(timePoints[i]) let beatTimeString = dateFormatter.string(from: beatTime) print("IBI: \(String(format: "%.2f", ibi)) ms at \(beatTimeString)") } self.ibiValues.append(ibi) } } } self.healthStore.execute(seriesQuery) } else { print("No samples found for the specified time range") } } self.healthStore.execute(query) } }

BLE timeout issue when connecting two devices on iOS 18 (but not iOS 16)
Hi, We’re developing a BLE peripheral device and encountered a connection issue when connecting two devices (Device A and Device B) simultaneously to an iOS device. Problem: On iOS 18, we are experiencing occasional BLE timeouts and disconnections when both devices are connected at the same time. On iOS 16, we did not encounter this issue under the same conditions. What we’ve tried: Adjusted the connection interval from 30ms to 15ms. This seems to have improved stability somewhat. However, we still observe intermittent timeout/disconnection issues. Questions: Are there any known changes in BLE connection handling or timing constraints in iOS 18? Are there recommended connection parameter settings (interval, latency, timeout, etc.) for multi-device BLE connections in iOS? Is there a way to debug or log more details about the disconnection reasons on the iOS side? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
