MacBook Pro M1 - 15.5 Kernel Panic when waking from sleep
Hi, EtreCheck I could really use some help with this, as I haven’t been able to find much concrete info. I mistakenly updated my MacBook to the 15.5 beta, and while I can’t say with 100% certainty that the issues started immediately after, I’ve been experiencing consistent kernel panics every time the machine wakes from sleep — it restarts completely and throws an error. I’m really hoping this isn’t a hardware issue. The MacBook is just over two years old, and I rely on it daily for work — replacing it right now isn’t an option. Unfortunately, I don’t have a Time Machine backup to roll back to. I’ve already wiped the machine and reinstalled macOS via recovery mode, and Apple Diagnostics isn’t showing any hardware problems. Just to rule it out: I’m not using any external devices — no docks, Thunderbolt accessories, or anything else plugged in. I came across EtreCheck as a recommended tool, and I’ve included the results below. If anyone is able to help interpret them or point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it. I’ve since unenrolled from the beta and turned off automatic updates — I’m just hoping this is a beta-related bug that resolves with the next stable release. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Problem with deleting the MinimaList app
A question from an ordinary user for developers: The essence of the problem: I installed the To Do List by MinimaList app on both my MacBook and iPhone. After installing it, I decided not to use it and deleted the application. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/minimalist-to-do-list-widget/id993066159 However, it turned out that not everything was removed. Specifically: • In the “Allow Others to Find Me” section on both my MacBook and iPhone, these apps still appear. No matter what I do—whether I delete or clear them—they continue to be displayed there. • This app continues to appear in the section located at: Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Stored in iCloud → See All → Allow Finding Me – To Do List and one more item. • It cannot be deleted. • It won’t delete on my MacBook, and it won’t delete on my iPhone. • It also appeared in iCloud itself under the Email Search section. P.S. The official Apple support (without violating any internal regulations) advised me to post on the forum to get in touch with Apple developers. In hope, I am posting this question here.

How to Keep Live Activity in Expanded Dynamic Island State (ActivityKit, iOS 17+)
I'm building a Live Activity using ActivityKit in iOS, and I'm trying to understand how apps like Uber or Lyft manage to keep the Dynamic Island always in its expanded state, without transitioning through the compact phase. In my implementation, the Live Activity always starts in the compact state, and only expands temporarily when I interact with it. I've tried the following: Updating the ContentState frequently using activity.update(using:) I tried updating the activity every 1 second, but it didn’t make a difference. Leaving the compactLeading, compactTrailing, and minimal regions empty using EmptyView() — also didn’t change the behavior. Delaying the initial update by 1 second — no effect. What I'm trying to figure out: Is there any way to programmatically force or request the Dynamic Island to stay in the expanded state? Could this behavior be achieved through push updates, using apns-push-type: liveactivity and a high priority (apns-priority)? What I’m trying to achieve is similar to the behavior shown in the images below — the apps do not transition to the compact island, but instead displays the expanded view immediately. Example:

macOS 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) Killed My External Displays – Send Help (or an Exorcist)
For 9 Glorious Months, My MacBook Pro & J5 Create JCD543 HUB Were Best Friends… Until I Updated macOS For nearly a year, my MacBook Pro 14” (2023, M2 Pro, 16GB RAM) worked flawlessly with my J5 Create JCD543 HUB, allowing me to run: ✅ 4 External Displays (Samsung, LG, Insignia, Samsung) A setup that worked perfectly… until I updated macOS. Then Came the Update… and the Issues Began First, I updated last week. Two of my four displays stopped working. No big deal, I thought—I’ve dealt with display quirks before. Then, like an optimist ignoring red flags, I updated again last night to 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) and… well, now things are completely broken. My Once-Perfect Setup (Now a Display Disaster) JCD543 HUB → 2 HDMI displays (not working) JUD380 HUB → 1 HDMI display (partially working, unstable) MacBook HDMI port → 1 HDMI display (working, but feeling abandoned) JCA365 USB-C to Dual HDMI Adapter (Not part of my setup, but tested—also not working) What I’ve Tried (aka My Troubleshooting Journey) ✔ Restarted my Mac multiple times ✔ Uninstalled and reinstalled J5 drivers ✔ Swapped cables, unplugged/replugged everything, tested known-working HDMI cables (they work fine on other devices) ✔ Deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist (this fixed a similar issue in the past, but the file no longer exists in this update) The Likely Culprit? It seems to be a J5 driver issue triggered by the macOS update—and I’m not alone. Others are reporting similar problems. Apple… Any Fixes? I just want my four screens back. The setup worked flawlessly for 9 months, so it’s hard to believe it was never meant to work. If anyone has a workaround, I’m open to testing any solution—whether it’s a driver update, system tweak, or hidden macOS setting that might bring my displays back to life. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. (P.S. Apple, if you’re reading this—please look into this issue!)

Porting Games Over to Apple Arcade
Hi all, I'm working for a publisher, and we're looking to bring some of our PC/console titles over to Apple Arcade - how viable is this? Is Unity or Unreal Engine easier to port from? Does anyone have any contacts with porting studios who have done this before? Thanks

Affiliate links to external Web store
Hello all. I am currently developing a database app of particular products for people who collect this item. Let's say model airplanes. People can look at their list of model airplanes and also see a collection of airplanes by model companies. I want to offer a link from a product in my app to a local retailer's website who sells this product on their website. Not just their base site, but directly to the products page. Meaning each product in my database will have a unique link to an external product page. This could also include links to Ebay or Amazon if local retailer doesn't sell the product. Is this sort of feature allowed inside App Store Apps as technically it's not an in-app purchase? I do see some vague answers around but none that target this specific circumstance. Thankyou in advance.

How to request several models simultaneously
I am using HelloPhotogrammetry in Xcode I can make one model with something like HelloPhotogrammetry.main([path_to_folder_of images, path_to_output/model.usdz, "-d", "medium", "-o", "unordered", "-f", "high" ]) But how would I request several models simultaneously? I only want to vary the detail. [ ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_medium.usdz", detail: .medium), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_full.usdz", detail: .full), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_raw.usdz", detail: .raw ]

Appleインビテーションで招待された人の条件は?
説明ではApple Accountが無くても回答可能とあるが、招待された画面を開きメールアドレスを入力するとApple acountのパスワードを入れるか、新規にacountを作成する画面になる。 Apple Accountが無い人は何も出来ないのか?それともあのパスワード欄は新規にパスワード登録するためのもの? また、招待を送ったメールアドレスとApple acountのメールアドレスが違う場合はどうなるのだろう? 誰か試した人いますか?

Wireless CarPlay
i am running iOS 18.5 beta 3 (iPhone 16 pro max) and my phone will not connect wirelessly to any of my vehicles. When connected via the apple certified usb-c cord, it will connect just fine.

Apple Sign In Issues using Firebase on Flutter App
We are currently facing an issue with implementing "Sign in with Apple" in our iOS application built using Flutter. We've implemented "Sign in with Apple" using Firebase and On attempting to sign in, we are encountering the following error: “Sign-up not completed.” We have verified that: The Apple Sign is enabled on our Firebase Project. The Sign in with Apple capability is enabled in the Xcode project. The Apple Sign-In capability is enabled for the App ID on our Apple Developer account. All the certificates were re-provisioned after enabling the capability. The Bundle ID matches across Apple Developer portal and our app configuration. The email and fullName scopes are requested in the credential. Please let us know if you require any additional information. We’re happy to provide whatever is needed. Here's a screenshot attached to explain the problem better

buildAudienceType is not working as expected
Hi, Am using fastlane to upload into TestFlight. Am able to successfully upload the build without any issues. For Testing Internally , I want to upload the build into App Store Connect but I should restrict it on submitting to App Store. ( This is possible when i distribute the app via TestFlight Internal Only from XCode -> Organizer -> Distribute App (Select option with TestFlight Internal Only). I want to achieve the same using either Transporter/ fastlane. I tried setting buildAudienceType to INTERNAL_ONLY as per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/buildaudiencetype but it is not working. Can you suggest how i can achieve this via fastlane?

Watch series 6 beta 11.4 issue
I updated my Apple Watch Series 6 before Apple withdrew beta 11.4 as an option. I see on forums that I am not alone with this issue. Many series 6 watches are now stuck in a boot loop. I hope Apple can resolve the issue for those of us that pushed the update to our watches before the issue was identified. Support were unable to assist.
