I'm building out a live activity that has a button which is meant to update the content state of the Live Activity. It calls a LiveActivityIntent that runs in the app process. The push server starts my live activity and the buttons work just fine. I pass the push token back to the server for further updates and when the next update is pushed by the server the buttons no longer work. With the debugger I'm able to verify the app intent code runs and passes the updated state to the activity. However the activity never updates or re-renders. There are no logs in Xcode or Console.app that indicates what the issue could be or that the update is ignored. I have also tried adding the frequent updates key to my plist with no change. I'm updating the live activity in the LiveActivityIntent like this: public func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { let activities = Activity<WidgetExtensionAttributes>.activities for activity in activities { let currentState = activity.content.state let currentIndex = currentState.pageIndex ?? 0 let maxIndex = max(0, currentState.items.count - 1) let newIndex: Int if forward { newIndex = min(currentIndex + 1, maxIndex) } else { newIndex = max(currentIndex - 1, 0) } var newState = currentState newState.pageIndex = newIndex await activity.update( ActivityContent( state: newState, staleDate: nil ), alertConfiguration: nil, timestamp: Date() ) } return .result() } To sum up: Push to start -> tap button on activity -> All good! Push to start -> push update -> tap button -> No good...

Summary A crash occurs in ViewBridge framework when a TUINSRemoteViewController object receives -release message after being deallocated. This appears to be a reference counting issue within the ViewBridge framework's internal autorelease pool management. Environment macOS Version: [15.0.0] Application: Custom Qt-based application using Chromium Embedded Framework (xcode version: xcode 15; QT version: 6.5.4 ; CEF version: 138.0.47+g2728d53+chromium-138.0.7204.221) Steps to Reproduce Users are typically using the app normally, but a crash occasionally occurs when they activate and click on the application. This happens infrequently, but it occurs roughly every day. Currently, only a few specific users experience this crash, and it may appear for several consecutive days before disappearing for several days. We cannot reliably reproduce this issue but have collected crash logs from affected users.

Hello Apple Developer Technical Support, I’m following up on case #102807413324 and submitting this as a code-level support request. We are integrating iOS Live Activities (ActivityKit + WidgetKit extension written in SwiftUI) into an Expo/React Native app. We’re seeing behavior where the Live Activity UI shown on the Lock Screen appears to “stick” to an older layout and ignores updated SwiftUI code and/or bundled assets, even after rebuilding, reinstalling, and removing existing Live Activities before testing again. Environment Device: iPhone 13 iOS: 26.2 macOS: 15.7.3 (24G419) Xcode: 16.4 (16F6) Expo SDK: 52 React Native: 0.76.9 expo-live-activity: ^0.4.2 Build type: Ad-Hoc signed IPA (EAS local build) Summary We have a WidgetKit extension target (LiveActivity.appex, bundle id: stimul8.LiveActivity) using ActivityConfiguration(for: LiveActivityAttributes.self). The extension contains multiple SwiftUI views selected via a “route” (derived from deepLinkUrl / title / subtitle), and uses images/backgrounds from the extension asset catalog (Assets.xcassets). We also support loading images from an App Group container with a fallback to the asset catalog. After shipping updates, the Live Activity UI shown on the Lock Screen continues to resemble an older/default layout (example: a progress-bar-like element remains visible even after removing ProgressView usage from LiveActivityView.swift). Some custom backgrounds/images also fail to display as expected. Routing (examples) /streak -> StreakLiveActivityView /streak-urgent -> StreakUrgentLiveActivityView /lesson/create -> AILessonLiveActivityView1 /lesson/reminder -> AILessonLiveActivityView2 default -> LiveActivityView Steps to reproduce (high-level) Install/build and trigger a Live Activity. Modify the SwiftUI layout in the extension (e.g., remove ProgressView and change obvious UI elements), rebuild, and reinstall. Remove any existing Live Activities from the Lock Screen, then trigger a new Live Activity again. Observed: Lock Screen Live Activity still renders the prior/older-looking UI and/or ignores updated assets. Troubleshooting already done Verified the extension (LiveActivity.appex) is included in the IPA and properly signed. Verified Assets.car is present in the extension and PNG assets are present in the build artifacts. Ensured SwiftUI source files used by the extension are overwritten during prebuild so the intended versions are present in ios/LiveActivity. Cleared DerivedData related to LiveActivity builds. Reinstalled the app and removed existing Live Activities from the Lock Screen before re-triggering new ones. Questions Is there any known caching behavior where Live Activities can continue to display a previous UI layout after an app/extension update, even when the activity is re-created? Are there recommended steps to force the system to load the newest widget extension binary/UI beyond reinstalling and removing existing Live Activities? What’s the recommended way to confirm which exact extension binary/UI version is being rendered on-device (e.g., specific Console logs, sysdiagnose signals, or other indicators)? Are there any known constraints with Assets.xcassets usage for Live Activities that could cause bundled assets not to render even when present? We can provide A minimal reproduction Xcode project (preferred) The IPA build Build logs (Xcode/EAS) Screenshots/video and a sysdiagnose captured after reproduction Thank you for your guidance. Best regards

Some of the users of my app reported that, the widgets cannot be loaded, event after restarts and re-installs. It seems that it is not rare, I have tens of reports on this (and probably much more who didn't report). It seems the widget is blank even on the gallery screen while you are first adding it: struct SingleWidgetProvider: AppIntentTimelineProvider { @Environment(\.widgetFamily) var family private let viewModel: WidgetViewModel = WidgetViewModel() func placeholder(in context: Context) -> SingleEntry { SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample) } func snapshot(for configuration: SingleWidgetConfigurationIntent, in context: Context) async -> SingleEntry { guard let habit = Array(PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabitList().habits).first else { return SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample) } let displayable = viewModel.displayableFromHabit(habit, separateComponents: true, secondOffset: 0) return SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: displayable) } func timeline(for configuration: SingleWidgetConfigurationIntent, in context: Context) async -> Timeline<SingleEntry> { var entries: [SingleEntry] = [] guard let counter = configuration.currentCounter else { return Timeline(entries: [SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample)], policy: .atEnd) } guard let habit = PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabit(habitKey: counter.id) else { return Timeline(entries: [SingleEntry(date: Date(), habit: .singleSample)], policy: .atEnd) } let currentDate = Date() for secondOffset in 0 ..< 100 { let displayable = viewModel.displayableFromHabit( habit, separateComponents: true, secondOffset: secondOffset, symbolName: habit.habitSymbol?.name ?? "", overrideColor: configuration.currentColor.color, overrideButtonVisibility: configuration.currentButtonVisibility, overrideDisplayOption: configuration.currentDisplayOption ) let entryDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .second, value: secondOffset, to: currentDate)! let entry = SingleEntry(date: entryDate, habit: displayable) entries.append(entry) } return Timeline(entries: entries, policy: .atEnd) } } struct SingleEntry: TimelineEntry { let date: Date let habit: HabitDisplayable } static var singleSample: HabitDisplayable { return HabitDisplayable(habitKey: nil, title: LS("sampleWidgetHabitTitle"), dates: [Date(timeIntervalSince1970: 1507158360)], displayOption: .dayMonthYear, secondOffset: 0, separateComponents: true) } func displayableFromHabit( _ habit: Habit, separateComponents: Bool, secondOffset: Int, symbolName: String = "", overrideColor: Color? = nil, overrideButtonVisibility: WidgetButtonVisibility? = nil, overrideDisplayOption: WidgetDisplayOption? = nil ) -> HabitDisplayable { let latestDates: [HabitDate] let displayOption: DisplayOption if let overrideDisplayOption { if overrideDisplayOption == .sameAsCounter { displayOption = habit.settings?.toValue.displayOption ?? .dayMonthYear } else { displayOption = DisplayOption(rawValue: overrideDisplayOption.rawValue - 1) ?? .dayMonthYear } } else { displayOption = habit.settings?.toValue.displayOption ?? .dayMonthYear } let displayMode = displayOption.mode switch displayMode { case .timePassed, .date: latestDates = PersistenceManager.shared.latestDate(habit: habit).map { [$0] } ?? [] case .activity: latestDates = PersistenceManager.shared.retrieveHabitDates(habit: habit, limitDate: displayOption.limitDate()) } let displayButton: Bool if let overrideButtonVisibility { if overrideButtonVisibility == .sameAsCounter { displayButton = habit.settings?.toValue.buttonType == .onRow } else { displayButton = overrideButtonVisibility == .show } } else { displayButton = false } return HabitDisplayable( habitKey: habit.habitKey, title: habit.title, dates: latestDates.map { $0.date }, displayOption: displayOption, secondOffset: secondOffset, separateComponents: separateComponents, color: overrideColor ?? habit.habitColor?.color ?? .appPrimary, symbolName: symbolName, displayButton: displayButton ) } I provided a large portion of my code, let me know if you need more. The strange thing here is, even if the DB connection is broken somehow, it should have shown the default option (singleSample). I am not able to reproduce/fix this for months now, so any help is very appreciated.

How to eliminate this spacing？

Hi everyone, I’m implementing Live Activities in my iOS app and encountering an issue when starting a Live Activity via an APNS push. The Live Activity card appears on the Lock Screen / Dynamic Island for a moment, then immediately disappears. In the console, I see the following error: Content load failed: unable to find or unarchive file for key: [com.meituan.imeituan-beta::com.meituan.imeituan-beta.liveactivity:Attributes type: SAKUniversalReminderAttributes:6DBCC2DC-E613-48F5-B97F-3EF72AA0877B]:[w:fix-374.00-h:dyn-64.00-160.00-cr:23.5-s:1.0.fam:medium].

Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Could it be related to the archive file not being written correctly by the system, or perhaps a mismatch in the activity attributes? Any guidance on debugging or resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Good afternoon all, I have a question about Live Activities, specifically ProgressView. Why are they so hard to customize? You can't even really, consistently make the bar a specific height in points. You can't provide any progress view style to make it richer and more dynamic. We want to build a progress bar that's built up of 3 components: a track with its value constant on 1.0 (the full progress) with a specific color, another track that's the actual progress from ProgressView(timerInterval:countsDown:), and some way to create a visual gap in between. The progress bar should also be bigger than the standard size from iOS, but that's also not possible. The corners become really ugly when you use the scaleEffect modifier. Please, if anyone has any ideas about customizing the ProgressView without me having to send push notifications to manually make sure the bar updates, comment down below.

Hello, I’m working on an iOS app where we have integrated ActivityKit to support Live Activities. Our app currently supports iOS 16.x and above, and we do not have an Apple Watch app or watchOS support. However, we noticed that when a Live Activity starts on the iPhone, it automatically appears on the Apple Watch as well. Since our app is not designed for Apple Watch, we would like to prevent the Live Activity UI from appearing on the watch. My questions: Is there any way to disable or prevent Live Activities from showing on Apple Watch via code? Are there any configuration options in ActivityKit or Widget configuration that can restrict Live Activities to iPhone only? Our current setup: Minimum iOS version: 16.x Using ActivityKit for Live Activities No watchOS target in the app Any guidance or recommended approach would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have been experiencing many issues trying to integrate the Apple AlarmKit in my app. I essentially keeping getting authorization errors. I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing issues like this and if anyone had guidance or a fix for what I am experiencing. I was under the impression that any devices IOS26+ could use the AlarmKit but maybe I am mistaken. Getting (com.apple.AlarmKit.Alarm error 1.) every time I try and enable alarms.

Could you please provide guidance on the following points: Start Token Throttling Are there any throttling limits or rate restrictions applied to Start Tokens? Token Invalidation Scenarios Under what specific conditions can a Start Token become invalidated? Are there known scenarios that trigger invalidation? Token Regeneration Timeline Once a Start Token is invalidated, how long does it typically take before a new token can be successfully generated and validated? Frequency of Invalidation Is there any documented or expected frequency with which Start Tokens may become invalid, assuming a normal development workflow? Impact on Push Notification Token When a live activity Start Token becomes invalid, does this also cause APNs Push Notification Tokens to be invalidated or refreshed automatically?

Environment iOS Version: 26.4 Beta (Build 17E5170d) Xcode Version: 26.4 Beta Framework: AccessoryNotifications, AccessoryTransportExtension Description When implementing AccessoryNotifications.NotificationsForwarding.AccessoryNotificationsHandler, I'm unable to retrieve the URL for sourceIcon from AccessoryNotification. The file.url property throws AccessoryError error 0 with the message "unable to get file URL". Code Sample func add( notification: AccessoryNotification, alertingContext: AlertingContext, alertCoordinator: any AlertCoordinating ) { Task { if let sourceIcon = notification.sourceIcon { do { let url = try await sourceIcon.url // Throws AccessoryError error 0 let data = try Data(contentsOf: url) // Process icon data... } catch { print("Failed to get sourceIcon URL: (error)") // Error: The operation couldn't be completed. // (AccessoryNotifications.AccessoryError error 0.) } } } } Observed Behavior The sourceIcon property is present and its type is correctly reported as public.image: │ sourceIcon : present │ type.identifier : public.image │ type.description : image │ url : (error: The operation couldn't be completed. (AccessoryNotifications.AccessoryError error 0.)) Error details: Error: customError(message: "unable to get file URL") Type: AccessoryError Code: 0 Expected Behavior The file.url property should return a valid URL that allows reading the source icon image data, or the documentation should clarify any limitations or prerequisites for accessing this resource. Questions Is this a known limitation in the current beta? Are there additional entitlements or permissions required to access sourceIcon.url? Is there an alternative API to retrieve the actual image data for sourceIcon? Additional Context The same error occurs when accessing url in both describeNotification (debug logging) and sendAttachment methods contextIcon is typically nil for the notifications tested (e.g., WeChat messages) The notification metadata (title, body, actions, etc.) is correctly received

I have a watchOS WidgetKit complication that needs the user's location to show the nearest transit station, but the widget never gets location permission and CLLocationManager times out. Setup: NSWidgetWantsLocation = YES in Widget Extension's Info.plist NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription and NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription in Widget Extension's Info.plist Watch App successfully has location authorization Problem: The system never presents a location permission prompt for my widget. Apple's own World Clock widget does get one on watchOS (see screenshot) — I can't figure out what triggers it. When the widget tries to get location via CLLocationManager, the request times out and never returns a location. Questions: What triggers the system location prompt for a watchOS widget? Is NSWidgetWantsLocation sufficient or is something else required? Why would CLLocationManager time out and never return a location inside a widget extension? Is there a specific pattern required for requesting location in a WidgetKit timeline provider? Screenshots Sorry for swedish, but it says "Do you allow widgets from World Clock to use your location services?"

We are evaluating the new behavior mentioned in the Nearby Interaction documentation for iOS 18.4+, which states: “In iOS 18.4 and later, your app can continue ranging in the background with any supported device if the app starts a Live Activity as it goes to the background." Could you clarify what situations are considered “can continue ranging” versus cases where it will not continue? Specifically, if my app: starts a NISession in the foreground starts a Live Activity with that data then the app goes to background should the NI session still deliver ranging updates so the app can update the Live Activity? also, my app already enable Background Modes capability

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/widgetkit/keeping-a-widget-up-to-date lists a number of exception including "The widget’s containing app has an active audio or navigation session." https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10048/ mentions: "However, there are a few situational exceptions that will make these reloads occur both immediately and budget-free. These are when your container app is foreground to the user or when your app is participating in a user session, like Navigation or Now Playing audio." Does an active workout session in a watchOS app count as "your app is participating in a user session", so calls to WidgetCenter.shared.reloadTimelines(ofKind:) are budget-free?

Please note that the widgets sub forum is a 404: https://developer.apple.com/forums/post/question?community=1394020 I have a widget that works on iOS but doesn't work on Catalyst. The widget does not appear in the list of available widgets to install. It's related to the Bundle ID for the widget. If I use a fresh bundle ID the widget loads, but if I use the one I'm currently using for iOS it doesn't appear as available to install. To confirm it's related to the bundle ID I created a fresh project in xcode and recreated the behaviour. Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a question about how a watch widget can access HealthKit data. Does it, as the large model mentioned, share data through an App Group, or does it directly access the HealthStore?

Hi, I have a class project I am working on (with a due date tomorrow, unfortunately RIP to me). But I have made my project about adding accessibility to a Unity game. I've successfully added apple unity core and accessibility plugins to my project, and my project builds. But I have simple text nodes and buttons and they aren't accessible with voiceover once I build/export my game and test. I am only building for MacOS right now (for the assignment). I don't have too much experience with Unity, but I am relatively experienced with accessibility (even formerly an intern and contractor at Apple for accessibility). So I wonder if I am just using Unity incorrectly? Perhaps I've done something to my build process (or haven't done something I should)? I've attached a photo of what my dev environment looks like in Unity, I've focused a text node (on the left) and on the right are my AccessibilityNode settings. Any help would be awesome, even if I don't make my deadline tomorrow... :*( Project repo is here, if it is helpful: https://github.com/frankelavsky/PGD_final_project Thanks!

I am seeing a really weird behavior with Live Activities. The Live Activity is always appearing on the simulator. However the Live Activity is only appearing on my physical device when there is no other widget in the widget bundle shown below. @main struct HoerspielWidgetsBundle: WidgetBundle { var body: some Widget { // Uncomment the line below and the Live Activity will no longer appear // UpNextWidget() PlaybackLiveActivity() } } Annotating that var with @WidgetBundle has no effect. There are no logs indicating an error, the function to request a Live Activity does not throw and the status of the activity is active. Both the widget and the Live Activity are working fine otherwise. NSSupportsLiveActivities is set to true in the correct Info.plist file. I am not running any beta software and the physical iPhone is on the newest version (iOS 18.5). Using the template when adding a new target in Xcode, I was able to set up a similar app where the Live Activity works as expected. I am really at a loss here which additional information I should provide or how this issue can be resolved. Thank you for your help.

Hello forum, I want to keep my app running in the background after user swaps up, for the purpose of workout tracking. start up the task and continuously receipt GPS updates process the location data show the data on a live activity Two examples Strava paddlelogger Question: Does this mean, these two apps would just pause when the .backgroundTimeRemaining becomes 0? How does a workout app "work" in background mode, do I need to handle budget running out?
