Overview

Hello everyone, I'm encountering a blocking issue with my first-time Non-Consumable In-App Purchase​ after a rejection. Here is the exact workflow: Initial State: My App and IAP (com.marryflow.app.premium.lifetime) were linked and submitted together for the first time. Rejection: The IAP was rejected, and the App was consequently rejected as well (metadata rejection). Resubmission: I fixed the IAP issues and submitted it again. Its status is now "In Review". The Block: When I uploaded a new binary and went to the App Version page (under the "In-App Purchases" or "Subscriptions" section), the IAP that is "In Review" does not appear in the list. The interface only seems to allow selecting IAPs with "Ready to Submit" status. My Questions: Is this an expected system restriction? Meaning, once a first-time IAP enters a standalone review cycle, it cannot be manually re-attached to an App version? If so, is the correct resolution to ask the App Review team to reset the IAP's status back to "Ready to Submit"​ so that I can select it on the App Version page and submit them together? Currently, my App is submitted (without the IAP attached) and the IAP is stuck in "In Review". Any guidance on the proper workflow would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing an unusually long wait time for my TestFlight external build review and wanted to see if others are facing similar issues in 2026. Current Status: Platform: iOS App Version: 1.2.90 (Build 24) Build Type: TestFlight External Testing Current Status: In Review - not "Waiting for Review" Time in Current Status: Over 2 weeks Submission Timeline: Current Submission: Wednesday at 9:49 AM (iOS 1.2.90 Build 24) Previous Submission: March 9, 2026 at 2:20 PM (iOS 1.2.90 Build 11) - Status: Completed (Rejected) Full History: March 9, 2026 2:20 PM - Initial submission (Build 11) March 15, 2026 5:25 AM - Rejection from Apple March 24 - April 15, 2026 - Multiple back-and-forth communications (5 messages total) April 15, 2026 2:22 PM - Last response from Apple Recent (Wednesday 9:49 AM) - Resubmitted new build (Build 24) Current - Still "In Review" after 2+ weeks What I've Tried: ✅ Addressed all rejection issues from the previous review ✅ Submitted a new build with higher build number (11 → 24) ✅ Submitted expedited review request through App Store Connect ✅ Contacted Apple Developer Support via email ✅ Requested phone callback for escalation What Concerns Me: The build has been stuck in "In Review" status for over 2 weeks This is AFTER already going through a full review cycle (rejection + resubmission) Normal review times are supposed to be 24-48 hours, even with the 2026 backlog The previous review cycle took over 1 month (March 9 → April 15) This is completely blocking our beta testing program Questions for the Community: Is anyone else experiencing 2+ week "In Review" times for TestFlight external builds in 2026? Does a previous rejection cause indefinite review delays on resubmission? Has anyone successfully resolved this by canceling and submitting a brand new build? Are there effective escalation paths beyond standard support channels? Could this indicate an account-level review issue? What I Understand: Review times have increased in 2026 due to higher submission volumes Previous rejections can lead to more thorough reviews However, 2+ weeks "In Review" (not even "Waiting") seems abnormal This delay is severely impacting our development timeline and beta testing plans. Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help.

I’m seeing a reproducible system-level Camera crash/termination on iPhone Air running iOS 26.4.2. Steps to reproduce: Press Camera Control to launch the Camera app. Tap the lower-left thumbnail to enter the recent photo view. Browse photos, or tap Edit and start cropping a photo. The Camera/Photos flow unexpectedly exits and returns to the Home Screen or widget view. Additional detail: The issue can happen whether or not a new photo is taken after launching Camera with Camera Control. In other words, using Camera Control as a shortcut into Camera, then tapping the lower-left thumbnail to browse photos, can trigger the issue. Sometimes it happens while only browsing photos, without entering Edit. Expected result: The photo viewer/editor should stay open and allow normal browsing or cropping. Actual result: The flow exits unexpectedly. Mac Console evidence: Around 2026-05-12 21:53:59-21:54:00, Console showed SpringBoard/RunningBoard terminating com.apple.camera. Relevant log excerpt: Capture Application Requirements Unmet: "AVCaptureEventInteraction not installed" reportType: CrashLog ReportCrash Parsing corpse data for pid 94087 com.apple.camera: Foreground: false Storage is sufficient. Restart/reset-style support steps have already been tried and did not resolve the issue. This appears specific to the Camera Control launch path, not normal Photos app browsing. Has anyone else seen this on iOS 26.x, or is this a known Camera Control / AVCaptureEventInteraction regression? Already Filed as FB22766094.

I tried every possible but it just won't work on my device. The program runs well on the simulator by the way

Hi, I got the error( IAPError(code: storekit_no_response, source: app_store, message: StoreKit: Failed to get response from platform., details: null) ) when run the code ( final InAppPurchase _iap = InAppPurchase.instance; Set kids = {‘some_available_product_id’} _iap.queryProductDetails(_kIds); ) from flutter I don’t know why this happened, can you let me know this?

May I ask if there is a complete source code project for this instructional video that needs to be learned. Work with Reality Composer Pro content in Xcode

(Note: I don't need DTS support. This is not a DTS issue, and the standard responses aren't relevant to the situation. I would ask that DTS not respond in lieu of the developer support official) Yesterday, a poster in this forum wrote about his experience waiting several months to get approved to have his apps notarized. He had hit the "status code 7000; Team ID not configured for notarization" block. An Apple Developer Support account responded to him saying they would help the poster. After a month of waiting and praying for Developer Support to approve my Team ID for notarization, and no progress via the official channels, I am rolling the dice that asking Developer Support here will get my account approved or at least moved forward. I just can't wrap my head around why it takes so long to allow a Team ID to submit apps for notarization. My Team ID is V67NRZ84A2, and my support ticket is 102874600970. Spending months and months developing an app, paying the Developer Support annual fee, and then having to sit on your hands for months while your app gathers dust due to the Status Code 7000 bottleneck is very demoralizing. Again, not a DTS issue. The official channels 100% do not work. Developer Support did respond to a poster yesterday, so this is the pathway I'm hoping will lead to my Team ID getting permission to notarize apps. As it stands, no other method is leading to the problem getting resolved.

Does anyone know if there will be a Swift 6 version of "The Swift Programming Language" book and if so, when it will be released for Apple Books?

I am coding in Perl and I want to create Environment Variables (External to the app) specifically for this app only, however my custom ENV variables are deliberately blocked by the OS for security purposes (as described in documentation).

After my account was converted to an organizational account, I tried to submit a new W-9, but I get an error: "The Type of Beneficial Owner does not match the individual or company status you previously provided." I had selected "Individual/Sole proprietor", based on my understanding that this is what should be selected on the W-9 for a single-member LLC. My initial guess as to what's causing the error, is my single-member LLC may have been miscategorized in the migration to an organization account so the intended option doesn't work. As per the official W-9 instructions, a single-member LLC should be categorized as an "Individual/sole proprietor or single-member LLC" on the form for tax purposes, but when I select "Individual/Sole Proprietor" on the "Type of Beneficiary Owner" dropdown on the App Store Connect front-end form for the W-9, which I assume corresponds with the aforementioned option on the true W-9 form that includes "single-member LLC", I get the aforementioned error. I was alternatively informed by Developer Support that the above error may be occurring because I haven't signed the latest Apple Program License Agreement, which I haven't been able to access, which they claimed is because I hadn't provided banking information for my account. So I added my business bank account but a week later the top of the Business section still says "Your banking updates are processing, and you should see the changes in 24 hours. You won't be able to make any additional updates until then." I contacted Apple Developer Support about all of the above and am still waiting for a response. While I wait, I'd like to ask here whether anyone has any ideas as to why the W-9 error is occuring or how long banking changes actually take to process, in case either of these is something I can resolve in the meantime.

Summary: When applying a configuration profile that uses allowListedAppBundleIDs to permit a defined set of apps, essential Apple Watch apps are unexpectedly removed from the paired Watch — even though their associated iPhone bundle IDs are explicitly included. This issue occurs with a minimal profile, and has been consistently reproducible on the latest versions of iOS and watchOS. Impact: This behavior severely limits the use of Apple Watch in managed environments (e.g., education, family management, accessibility contexts), where allowlisting is a key control mechanism. It also suggests either: Undocumented internal dependencies between iOS and watchOS apps, or A possible regression in how allowlists interact with Watch integration. Steps to Reproduce: Create a configuration profile with a Restrictions payload containing only the allowListedAppBundleIDs key. Allow a broad list of essential system apps, including all known Apple Watch-related bundle IDs: com.apple.NanoAlarm com.apple.NanoNowPlaying com.apple.NanoOxygenSaturation com.apple.NanoRegistry com.apple.NanoRemote com.apple.NanoSleep com.apple.NanoStopwatch com.apple.NanoWorldClock (All the bundles can be seen in the Attached profile) Install the profile on a supervised or non-supervised iPhone paired with an Apple Watch. Restart both devices. Observe that several core Watch apps (e.g. Heart Rate, Activity, Workout) are missing from the Watch. Expected Behavior: All apps explicitly included in the allowlist should function normally. System apps — especially those tied to hardware like Apple Watch — should remain accessible unless explicitly excluded. Actual Behavior: Multiple Apple Watch system apps are removed or hidden, despite their iPhone bundle IDs being listed in the allowlist. Test Environment: iPhone running iOS 18 Apple Watch running watchOS 11 Profile includes only the allowListedAppBundleIDs key Issue confirmed on fresh devices with no third-party apps Request for Apple Engineering: Please confirm whether additional internal or undocumented bundle IDs are required to preserve Apple Watch functionality when allowlisting apps. If this behavior is unintended, please treat this as a regression or bug affecting key system components. If intentional, please provide formal documentation listing all required bundle IDs for preserving Watch support with allowlisting enabled. Attachment: .mobileconfig profile demonstrating the issue (clean, minimal, reproducible) Attached test profile = https://drive.google.com/file/d/12YknGWuo1bDG-bmzPi0T41H6uHrhDmdR/view?usp=sharing

So i submitted my app what seems like a dozen times now and they keep rejecting it due to Guidelines 5.1.1(i) - Privacy - Data Collection and 5.1.2(i) - Legal - Privacy - Data. The full section is: Issue Description The app appears to share the user’s personal data with a third-party AI service but the app does not clearly explain what data is sent, identify who the data is sent to, and ask the user’s permission before sharing the data. Apps may only use, transmit, or share personal data after they meet all of the following requirements: - Disclose what data will be sent - Specify who the data is sent to - Obtain the user’s permission before sending data - Identify in the privacy policy what data the app collects, how it collects that data, all uses of that data, and confirm any third party the app shares data with provides the same or equal protection Next Steps If the app sends user data to a third-party AI service, revise the app to explain what data is sent, identify who the data is sent to, and ask the user’s permission before sharing personal data with a third-party AI service. If it does not already, the app’s privacy policy must also identify what data the app collects, how it collects that data, and all uses of that data, including if it is shared with a third-party AI service. Note that only including this information in the app's Terms of Service or Privacy Policy is not sufficient. If the app does not send user data to a third-party AI service or does not include a third-party AI service, reply to this rejection to confirm and add this information to the App Review Information section of App Store Connect. So i did this. My app uses 3rd party Ai services for facial scans and Ai morph features. Ive explained what data is used, what data i sent, etc. This is in my Privacy Policy and ive aded a section in both pages for Scans and Ai Morph since they are 2 seperate operations, but there a notification that pops up when the user first uses the feature and on the same screen theres a text that says 'By using Facial Scanning you agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms" and the same for Ai Morph except it says Ai Morph Feature and not face scan.. And yet Apple keeps rejecting it. So what else do they require me to do?

The first review was on May 5th and got rejection with 2.1 (b) and 3.1.2(c). I took my time to localize screenshots, app metadata, and the subscription pricing and re-submitted for review (also replied to the early rejection) on May 10th. It's been more than 48 hours, but the status is still 'waiting for review'. I wonder if it's normal or if I should reply to the rejection again? Thanks!

Currently our app Juris: Learn the Law has consumable IAPs available publicly. We've recently added a subscription to a new update, but since we already added consumable IAPs, we can only submit new IAP on their own and cannot attach it to a new binary. The issue is that when we submit the subscription for review, it gets rejected and the reviewers respond that the subscription needs to be included with a new binary, even though we can't attached it to a new binary. We submitted a new binary at the same time we submitted a new subscription, but the new binary would be approved and the subscription would be rejected. The update with the subscription is available, but the subscription isn't, meaning users cannot use the new features which require the subscription.

forum-post-v2-evidence.log MCRestrictionsPayload (allowListedAppBundleIDs) breaks Apple Watch app enumeration — nanotimekitcompaniond reports "Missing .app from directory: /Watch/" Summary Installing a Configuration Profile with com.apple.applicationaccess payload containing allowListedAppBundleIDs causes native Apple Watch apps to disappear from the paired Watch — even when their bundle IDs are explicitly in the whitelist. Log analysis shows this is not a bundle ID matching problem: nanotimekitcompaniond on the iPhone fails to enumerate the <companion>.app/Watch/ subdirectories where native watchOS app stubs live. Follow-up to https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/745585 — community-confirmed but received no official response. Environment iPhone 16 (iPhone17,3), iOS 26.4.2 (23E261), supervised Apple Watch paired via Bridge.app Profile installed locally via Apple Configurator (no MDM server required) Smoking gun Within ~5 seconds of profile install, two processes (nanotimekitcompaniond and NTKFaceSnapshotService) log identical errors for eight companion-app paths: nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: file:///Applications/MobilePhone.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../Calculator.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../Bridge.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../MobileTimer.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../Camera.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../VoiceMemos.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../MobileMail.app/Watch/ nanotimekitcompaniond[1498] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: .../FindMy.app/Watch/ NTKFaceSnapshotService[3758] <Error>: Missing .app from directory: <same 8 paths> The Watch's app icons and face complications both go through these processes, which explains the symptoms users see. iOS itself flags the payload as Watch-incompatible — but applies it anyway profiled[179] <Notice>: Payload class MCRestrictionsPayload (com.apple.applicationaccess) is not supported on any Watch version profiled[179] <Notice>: Payload class MCRestrictionsPayload (com.apple.applicationaccess) is not available on HomePod profiled[179] <Notice>: Beginning profile installation... profiled[179] <Notice>: Profile "...v2..." installed. So profiled knows the payload doesn't target watchOS — yet its side effects clearly manifest there. Tests performed Test Bundle IDs in whitelist Result v1 249 (every installed iOS app: Apple + 3rd party) Walkie-Talkie, Messages, Find My + more disappear from Watch v2 295 (v1 + every Apple extension/Nano* daemon seen in syslog: *.MessagesActionExtension, *.FindMyNotifications*Extension, *.FindMyWidget*, com.apple.NanoBackup, com.apple.NanoMusicSync, com.apple.NanoPreferencesSync, com.apple.NanoTimeKit.face, com.apple.NanoUniverse.AegirProxyApp, com.apple.tursd, com.apple.FaceTime.FTConversationService, com.apple.Bridge.GreenfieldThumbnailExtension, etc.) Identical Missing-.app errors. Same apps disappear. Conclusion: this is not a bundle ID matching issue — adding more IDs doesn't help. The system fails to enumerate <companion-iOS-app>.app/Watch/ regardless of whitelist contents. Many users in my prior thread reported trying 100+ bundle ID combinations without success; this evidence explains why. Reproduction (no MDM required) Pair Apple Watch with iPhone normally. Generate a Configuration Profile with com.apple.applicationaccess + any non-empty allowListedAppBundleIDs array. Install via Apple Configurator's cfgutil install-profile, or AirDrop + Settings → Install. Within ~5 s, nanotimekitcompaniond errors appear (visible via idevicesyslog). Native Watch apps backed by an iOS companion stub disappear from the Watch's app grid and from face complications. Hypothesis MCRestrictionsPayload applies an enumeration filter that does not descend into .app/Watch/ subdirectories when computing visible apps. nanotimekitcompaniond consequently sees those directories as missing, the Watch's Carousel (SpringBoard equivalent) hides the apps, and NTKFaceSnapshotService can't load corresponding complications. Because profiled itself logs the payload as "not supported on any Watch version", this appears to be unintended bleed-through. Questions for Apple Is MCRestrictionsPayload / allowListedAppBundleIDs officially supposed to affect Apple Watch apps? profiled says no. Is there an undocumented bundle ID pattern (e.g. <companion>.watchapp, or a Bridge.app/Watch/ prefix) that needs whitelisting to keep native Watch apps visible? Is the recommended workaround to use blacklistedAppBundleIDs instead? Should the enumeration error (Missing .app from directory: .../Watch/) be tracked as a separate watchOS framework bug? Artifacts Curated evidence log with timestamps, profile installer events, and the eight Missing-.app errors is attached as forum-post-v2-evidence.log. Full idevicesyslog captures (multiple install/remove cycles, ~2M log lines) and the .mobileconfig files are available on request. Thanks — looking forward to guidance.

Since a few days ago, I noticed that every time you go to the top of the text in the Agentic Coding chat box, if you keep pressing the up arrow, the current message is replaced by the previous one. It's like someone decided to allow users to use the arrows to navigate to previous conversations in the same context, but this means that you are constantly jumping to previous messages by accident. The "feature" is error prone, confusing, and extremely annoying. If someone knows of an option in setting to disable it, please let me know. I'm constantly making mistakes, wasting tokens, editing the wrong message, and making the conversation confusing by sending the wrong message to the agent.

I submitted my paperwork on May 5 to development support to verify my organization and my signing ability for my organization and I have not heard anything back to this day. I know that these things are supposed to only take two business days. So I’ve also emailed and have not heard back. Has anybody ever had these issues before? And is there a way to contact Apple that’s not requesting a phone call I work full-time and cannot receive phone calls while I’m at work so that’s not a feasible option for me. Hopefully somebody will see this from support and respond to my emails and or submission.

I have been attempting to contact development support regarding verification of my organization in my signing ability on behalf of my organization because my account has not been. My initial filing was on May 5 for my new reference number because my first one got declined the developer portal as that it should only take two business days, but it is definitely taking a lot longer than that to verify my business. has anybody had this sort of issue before and is there a phone number to actually contact because the email process also seems to be delayed at this point in time. I work full-time and cannot receive phone calls during the day so putting in a ticket for someone to call me is not feasible. Hopefully somebody from the sports team will see this post and reach out to me and give me a way to contact Apple development support so I can get this finalized.

Hi, I’m pretty new to AppKit and I’m trying to make an NSTextField inside an NSTableView both: Editable Multi-line / wrapping Right now, wrapping works fine until I set: tf.isEditable = true Then the text becomes a single line. How do I make it editable while still wrapping correctly? import AppKit final class ViewController: NSViewController, NSTableViewDataSource, NSTableViewDelegate { let tableView = NSTableView() let text = String(repeating: "A", count: 500) override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view = tableView tableView.addTableColumn(NSTableColumn()) tableView.usesAutomaticRowHeights = true tableView.dataSource = self tableView.delegate = self } func numberOfRows(in tableView: NSTableView) -> Int { 1 } func tableView(_ tableView: NSTableView, viewFor tableColumn: NSTableColumn?, row: Int) -> NSView? { let cell = NSTableCellView() let tf = NSTextField(wrappingLabelWithString: text) tf.lineBreakMode = .byCharWrapping if let tableColumn { tf.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = tableColumn.width } tf.isEditable = true // comment this out and wrapping works cell.addSubview(tf) tf.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ tf.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.leadingAnchor), tf.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.trailingAnchor), tf.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.topAnchor), tf.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: cell.bottomAnchor), ]) return cell } }

My tvOS app includes the purchase of subscriptions, and I am updating the code with Storekit 2.0. I have seen other apps that present the "Confirm with Apple Device" UI upon selection of a product, but for me I only ever see an alert confirming the purchase. I have tested this using Xcode storekit data and a sandbox account. I have also attempted using Storekit views and passing the UIWindowScene to the purchase(confirmIn: ) parameter, but neither made any difference. Is there some limitation that prevents that UI from showing in debug builds?
