We are developing a macOS VPN application using NEPacketTunnelProvider with a custom encryption protocol. We are using standard On-Demand VPN rules with Wi-Fi SSID matching but we want to add some additional feature to the native behaviour.  We want to control the 'conenect/disconnect' button status and allow the user to interact with the tunnel even when the on demand rule conditions are satisfied, is there a native way to do it? In case we need to implement our custom on-demand behaviour we need to access to this information: connected interface type ssid name and being informed when it changes so to trigger our logic, how to do it from the app side? we try to use CWWiFiClient along with ssidDidChangeForWiFiInterface monitoring, it returns just the interface name en0 and not the wifi ssid name. Is location access mandatory to access wifi SSID on macOS even if we have a NEPacketTunnelProvider? Please note that we bundle our Network Extension as an App Extension (not SystemExtension).

We've often observed connectivity issues from our VPN app that can only be remedied by removing the VPN profile. It happens to a small but significant amount of our users, this often happens more when the app is updated, but the VPN profile corruption can happen without that too. The behavior we're observing is that any socket opened by the packet tunnel process just fails to send any data whatsoever. Stopping and restarting the packet tunnel does not help. The only solution is to remove the profile and create a new one. We believe our app is not the only one suffering from this issue as other VPN apps have added a specific button to refresh their VPN profile, which seemingly deletes and re-created the VPN configuration profile. Previously, we've caught glimpses of this in a sysdiagnose, but that was a while ago and we found nothing of interest. Alas, the sysdiagnose was not captured on a device with the network extension diagnostic profile (it was not a developer device). I would love to get technical support with this, as our bug reports have gone unanswered for long enough, yet we are still struggling with this issue. But of course, there is no minimum viable xcodeproject that reproduces this. Is there anything we can feasibly do to help with this issue? Is it even an acknowledged issue?

Continuing with my investigations of several issues that we have been noticing in our testing of the JDK with macosx 15.x, I have now narrowed down at least 2 separate problems for which I need help. For a quick background, starting with macosx 15.x several networking related tests within the JDK have started failing in very odd and hard to debug ways in our internal lab. Reading through the macos docs and with help from others in these forums, I have come to understand that a lot of these failures are to do with the new restrictions that have been placed for "Local Network" operations. I have read through https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3179-understanding-local-network-privacy and I think I understand the necessary background about these restrictions. There's more than one issue in this area that I will need help with, so I'll split them out into separate topics in this forum. That above doc states: macOS 15.1 fixed a number of local network privacy bugs. If you encounter local network privacy problems on macOS 15.0, retest on macOS 15.1 or later. We did have (and continue to have) 15.0 and 15.1 macos instances within our lab which are impacted by these changes. They too show several networking related failures. However, I have decided not to look into those systems and instead focus only on 15.3.1. People might see unexpected behavior in System Settings > Privacy & Security if they have multiple versions of the same app installed (FB15568200). This feedback assistant issue and several others linked in these documentations are inaccessible (even when I login with my existing account). I think it would be good to have some facility in the feedback assistant tool/site to make such issues visible (even if read-only) to be able to watch for updates to those issues. So now coming to the issue. Several of the networking tests in the JDK do mulicasting testing (through BSD sockets API) in order to test the Java SE multicasting socket API implementations. One repeated failure we have been seeing in our labs is an exception with the message "No route to host". It shows up as: Process id: 58700 ... java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramChannelImpl.send0(Native Method) at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramChannelImpl.sendFromNativeBuffer(DatagramChannelImpl.java:914) at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramChannelImpl.send(DatagramChannelImpl.java:871) at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramChannelImpl.send(DatagramChannelImpl.java:798) at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramChannelImpl.blockingSend(DatagramChannelImpl.java:857) at java.base/sun.nio.ch.DatagramSocketAdaptor.send(DatagramSocketAdaptor.java:178) at java.base/java.net.DatagramSocket.send(DatagramSocket.java:593) (this is just one example stacktrace from java program) That "send0" is implemented by the JDK by invoking the sendto() system call. In this case, the sendto() is returning a EHOSTUNREACH error which is what is then propagated to the application. The forum text editor doesn't allow me to post long text, so I'm going to post the rest of this investigation and logs as a reply.

What is the best way to detect if the Wifi is being used for Wireless Carplay or is just a normal network interface?

I have been using the SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags for 10+ years to inform users that their request won't work. In my experience this works pretty well although i am aware of the limitations. Now, i am looking into the NWPathMonitor, and i have one situation that i'm trying to. get my head around - it's asynchronous. Specifically, i am wondering what to do when my geofences trigger and i want to check network connectivity - i want to tell the user why the operation i'll perform because of the trigger couldn't be done. SO. say i start a NWPathMonitor in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions. When the app is booted up because of a geofence trigger, might i not end up in a case where my didEnterRegion / didExitRegion gets called before the NWPathMonitor has gotten its first status? The advantage here with SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags, as i understand it, would be that it's synchronous? If i want to upgrade to nwpathmonitor, i guess i have to do a method that creates a nwpathmonitor, uses a semaphore to wait for the first callback, then contunues? Thoughts appreciated

Since upgrading to Mac OS 10.5 Beta-2, daemons launched with launchctl are failing to open Desktop/Documents/Downloads files and folders even in read mode with an error "Operation not permitted".Does anyone facing this issue?

Hi, I am currently experiencing some trouble when using parent model property in a predicate of a child model. I have an Item class that define parent-child relationship: @Model class Item { var timestamp: Date @Relationship(inverse: \Item.children) var parent: Item? var children: [Item] init(parent: Item? = nil, children: [Item] = [], timestamp: Date = .now) { self.parent = parent self.children = children self.timestamp = timestamp } } I subclass this model like that: @available(iOS 26, *) @Model final class CollectionItem: Item { /* ... */ } When i make a Query in my View like that the system crashes: @Query( filter: #Predicate<CollectionItem> { $0.parent == nil }, sort: \CollectionItem.name, ) private var collections: [CollectionItem] CrashReportError: Fatal Error in DataUtilities.swift AppName crashed due to fatalError in DataUtilities.swift at line 85.

Is it a platform limitation or a known issue?

I have a strange crash which I have problems understanding. It only happens on a few devices, after a ModelContainer migration, and it doesn't seem to crash on the migration itself. The fetch is done in onAppear, and shouldn't necessarily result in a crash, as it is an optional try: let request = FetchDescriptor<Rifle>() let data = try? modelContext.fetch(request) if let data, !data.isEmpty { rifle = data.first(where: { $0.uuid.uuidString == settings.selectedRifleId }) ?? data.first! } When I get logs from users, there seems to be an error in encoding?

Hello, We're developing endpoint security software using the Endpoint Security framework, and we've encountered challenges with the behavior change in macOS 15 regarding provisioning UDIDs in cloned VMs. The Change Prior to macOS 15, cloning a VM preserved its UDID (format: 0000FE00-9C4ED9F68BBDC72D). Starting with macOS 15, cloned VMs receive a new UDID generated from the host's Secure Enclave (format: b043d27202c7ac37ca3c6b82673302225485cae9), making each clone effectively a new device. Our Workflow We maintain a clean base VM image and clone it for each test run. We add the base VM's UDID to our provisioning profile once, then create clones which (previously) retained that same UDID, allowing us to start new testing cycles without re-registering devices. This is essential because our product involves low-level system integration through the Endpoint Security framework, and if something goes wrong during development, it has the potential to affect system stability. To prevent any cascading issues between test runs or different product versions, we need each test to start from a known clean state rather than reusing the same VM. The Challenge With each VM clone generating a new UDID, we're hitting Apple's device registration limits quickly. This particularly impacts: New team members who spin up VMs for the first time and can't run signed builds Our CI/CD pipeline where multiple test environments need provisioning profiles Developers testing different branches who need separate clean environments Current Workaround We've found that VMs created on macOS 14 and upgraded to macOS 15+ retain their original UDID format. However, we're concerned this workaround may stop working in future macOS versions, which would leave us without a viable path forward. If the workaround stops working, our fallback would be signing each CI build with a Developer ID signature to allow running on any device. However, we'd prefer to avoid this as it would significantly increase load on Apple's signing infrastructure for what are essentially internal test builds. We completely understand the security reasoning behind tying UDIDs to the host's Secure Enclave for Apple Account support. However, for development workflows that don't require Apple Account features in VMs but do require clean, isolated test environments, the previous behavior was quite valuable. Question Is there a recommended approach for teams in our situation? We're happy to explore alternative workflows if there's a pattern we're missing, or we'd be glad to provide more context if this is a use case Apple is considering for future updates. Thanks for any guidance you can provide! Feedback case: FB21389730

I am using SwiftData for storage and have a view that uses the @Query property wrapper with a sort descriptor that points to a relationship on a model. In a release build on device running iOS 18.3, the app crashes. This is the line that crashes: @Query(sort: \Item.info.endDate, order: .reverse) private var items: [Item] Item has a relationship to ItemInfo, which is where the endDate property is defined. This code works in debug and on a simulator. In the project referenced here: https://github.com/lepolt/swiftdata-crash, change the scheme build configuration to “Release” and run on device. The app will crash. Using Xcode Version 16.2 (16C5032a) iPhone 12, iOS 18.3 (22D60)

The documentation for CGColorRef (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coregraphics/cgcolorref?language=objc) clearly shows that it is a struct. However, when I try to store a cell's border color using CGColorRef originalColor = self.bg.layer.borderColor and inspect what happens in the debugger, both that property and its copy have the same address. And later when I try to restore the border color the copy still has the same address but is no longer valid and causes a crash on assignment (originalColor is actually an instance variable...) This is all object behavior, not struct behavior. If CGColorRef really was a struct, the contents would have been copied, the instance variable would have had its own address that would never have changed, and the value would have remained valid indefinitely and let me copy it back without a problem. Why is this documented wrong? Was this a recent change? I actually had this code working at some point, and now it's broken.

I'm seeing a lot of these in my logs: PersistentIdentifier PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-swiftdata://Course/BC9CF99A-DE6A-46F1-A18D-8034255A56D8), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation) was remapped to a temporary identifier during save: PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-coredata:///Course/t58C849CD-D895-4773-BF53-3F63CF48935B210), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation). This is a fatal logic error in DefaultStore ... though everything seems to work. Does anyone know what this means in this context? Anything I can do to not have this appear?

I've been trying to add a CoreSpotlight indexer to my macOS application. The new template for the indexer uses the new appex CSImportExtension style importer. I've been following this -> https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corespotlight/csimportextension I changed the CSSupportedContentTypes in the Info.plist file to the correct file type uti. I added a dummy value into the attributes (see code below) - just setting contentDescription to 'noodle' (easy to search for) class ImportExtension: CSImportExtension {   override func update(_ attributes: CSSearchableItemAttributeSet, forFileAt: URL) throws {     // Add a dummy value, and see whether spotlight finds it     attributes.contentDescription = "noodle" } } I have a number of files on disk that match the uti (and can be found when I search by the file name) Yet, when I build and run my app, the a spotlight search for 'noodle' finds no results. Can anyone give me any advice? I cannot find any indication that the ImportExtension is called (although when I put a log message at the start of the update() call there's no message in the console which seems to suggest it's not being called). Is there any way of debugging this? Cheers and thanks -- Darren.

Hello, When an iOS app runs on Vision Pro in compatible mode, is there a flag such as isiOSAppOnVision to determine the underlying OS at runtime? Just like the ProcessInfo.isiOSAppOnMac. It will be useful to optimize the app for visionOS. Already checked but not useful: #if os(xrOS) does not work in compatible mode since no code is recompiled. UIDevice.userInterfaceIdiom returns .pad instead of .reality. Thanks.

After pairing and having subscribed to a service, and even after having exchanged messages, the service fails after a period of time and both devices need to pair again.

Updated version of this post My HomePod mini is now on version 16.4, so the the temperature and humidity sensors are enabled. The data properly shows up in the Home app on my various devices. In my HomeKit iPad app running on Mac Catalyst, however, the data does not show up. I would expect the HomePod mini to show up in HMHome.accessories with a service of type HMServiceTypeTempatureSensor. I see all of my other HomeKit accessories, just not the HomePod mini. I have tried with the latest Xcode (14.3) and highest available iOS Target and Minimum Deployment (16.4), macOS version 13.3. I have not, as of this writing, upgraded my HomeKit architecture, however. Note that I haven't tried the app on an actual iPad (and the iOS simulator doesn't expose my HomeKit environment.)

I have tried the following code interface: IOBufferMemoryDescriptor： a. withCapacity(bufferSize, kIODirectionInOut, true)； b. inTaskWithPhysicalMask(kernel_task, kIODirectionInOut, bufferSize, 0x00000000FFFFFFFFULL)。 The physical addresses of the constructed descriptors are all >32 bits; IODMACommand： a. withSpecification(kIODMACommandOutputHost64, 64, 0, IODMACommand::kMapped, 0, 0)，gen64IOVMSegments() The allocated IOVM address must be>32 bits, which will generate a kernel panic when used later. b.withSpecification(kIODMACommandOutputHost32, 32, 0, IODMACommand::kMapped, 0, 0)，gen32IOVMSegments() The allocation of IOVM failed with error code kIOReturnenMessageTooLarge. So after the above attempts, the analysis shows that the strategy of Dart+PCIe root port on macOS (Apple Silicon) is causing the failure of 64 bit DMA address transfer. I have two questions: a. Does Dart in macOS (Apple Silicon) definitely not allocate <=32-bit IOVM addresses? b. Is there any other way to achieve DMA transfer for FGPA devices on macOS (Apple Silicon)? Thanks！

Hello, I’m building a health-related app for both watchOS and iOS, which needs to monitor certain health data (e.g., heart rate, active energy). Before updating to watchOS 26, the queries worked reliably without any issues. However, after adapting to watchOS 26, some users have reported that health data updates stop being delivered. What I’ve observed: HKObserverQuery with enableBackgroundDelivery is set up normally. On WatchOS 26, the query sometimes stops delivering updates entirely after a certain point, and once an update is missed, it may stop delivering further updates completely. Restarting the Apple Watch temporarily restores delivery, but the problem reoccurs after some time. This makes background health data monitoring unreliable for my app. Here’s a simplified version of the code we are using: guard let heartType = HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate) else { return } let query = HKObserverQuery(sampleType: heartType, predicate: nil) { query, completionHandler, error in if let error = error { logEvent("Observer error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } logEvent("Heart rate changed") MyNotificationManager.shared.sendNotification() // Send a local notification completionHandler() } healthStore.execute(query) healthStore.enableBackgroundDelivery(for: heartType, frequency: .hourly) { success, error in if success { logEvent("Background heart rate delivery enabled") } else { logEvent("Failed to enable background heart rate delivery: \(error?.localizedDescription ?? "Unknown error")") } } Could you please clarify: Is this a known issue with HKObserverQuery and enableBackgroundDelivery on watchOS 26? Are there any recommended workarounds or best practices to ensure continuous background delivery of health data? Thank you in advance for your help.

I was excited to find out about Wi-Fi Aware in i[Pad]OS 26 and was eager to experiment with it. But after wiping and updating two devices (an iPhone 11 Pro and a 2018 11" iPad Pro) to Beta 1 I found out that neither of them support Wi-Fi Aware 🙁. What current and past iPhone and iPad models support Wi-Fi Aware? And is there a new UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key for it, to indicate that an app requires a Wi-Fi Aware capable device?
