As l proceeded through the enrollment/membership. I found the price is fixed for US$99. At the end. What about Renewal. Is there any cost reduction for Apple Developers?

Hello, Since having my iPhone 17 Pro, my CarPlay screen has been pixelated and unusable Is there any update coming soon to resolve this issue?

Since iOS 26.1 I'm running into the following iCloud issues. Contacts are not being synced to iOS and iPad OS at all, no matter how I re-enable contact syncing I can't get them to sync. Somehow, my Mac and iPad are able to send out iMessages, but not my iPhone. My iPhone can receive and sync what I've sent using my Mac and iPad Unable to save an airdropped contact

If Apple truly requires this much space for the system, I honestly don’t see the point of having a 256GB device. I have no way of knowing what exactly is included in “System Data,” and I cannot modify or manage it. This is extremely frustrating and confusing for users. Can someone explain why this is necessary?

Hi, I'm here hoping for some help or advice in terms of a critical situation I'm currently facing. I want to change the copyright of an app, which was my previous app but now transferred to another company. In the Apple developer panel, is there anywhere that can change the copyright? Here is a quick summary of the app development, Software Vendor 1 developed the app, then transferred to Software Vendor 2, eventually the Client user(only paid for the app but don't have developer account) can use it. Now, I'm the Software Vendor 1 and has transferred the app to Software Vendor 2, but the copyright is still Software Vendor 1; and I want to ask Vendor 2 change the copyright to Client user directly as the Client user has bought the app. I’ve contacted Apple Support multiple times through mails. They just tell me to ask the Account Holder/Admin of the organization account that now owned the app to contact them in order to receive support. Then, I've asked Software Vendor 2 to contact Apple support, but have no response from Apple support after 1 week. My Case number is: 102708379460 This case is quite urgent for me, if anyone from the App Support team sees this post, or if any developers have experienced a similar situation and can offer advice, we would be truly grateful. Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Why can’t Apple just release a version that put the most frequent used emoticons in the most left side of the emoticons keyboard??? Each person always uses the same 20 or 30 emoticons. How this could be reported to developers? Thx

Too many irrelevant posts come up when I attempt to search for something. There should be an easy button or something to earmark posts as something irrelevant- something that shouldn't come up in a search. I'm looking for something in Xcode 15 and frequently the top posts in the search are 10 years old and don't have any relevance whatsoever to the solution to my problem.

My app has three main SwiftData models: Collection, SavedItem, and Extract. A Collection can contain subcollections (folders within folders) and SavedItems (files). Each SavedItem can have child Extracts. I'm preparing for the ability for users to be able to share Collections with each other. Currently, my architecture treats each Collection as the root of its own CloudKit zone (a root parent Collection and all of its items and subcollections live in 1 zone). This makes sharing and isolation straightforward, but it also means that moving a SavedItem or subcollection between Collections involves moving it across zones. I’m trying to figure out the best pattern for handling these cross-zone moves while keeping data integrity, relationships, and sharing intact. My understanding is that in CloudKit, and moving a record from Zone A to Zone B would require deleting it from Zone A and recreating it in Zone B - while somehow maintaining the link back to my local SwiftData store. Has anyone run into this or know how best I should handle it?

Hi, in tvOS 26.1 Beta 4 is still this annoying Shadow Glitch… i have submitted an Bug-Report, but dont get an Answer… FB20049524 @DTS Engineer Could you please help me? 🤔

Its normal to have connections to developer.apple.com on an device not in developer mode?

iOS 18 System Bug Causes URL Scheme Failure A bug in iOS 18 causes URL Schemes to become invalid through the following steps, resulting in failure to open apps via URL Scheme. Reproduction Steps: Long-press the app icon Select "Require Face ID" Choose "Hide and Require Face ID" to hide the app Go to the App Library and locate the hidden app in the "Hidden" folder Uninstall the hidden app reinstalling the hidden app After reinstalling the app, all configured URL Schemes will become invalid, causing failure when attempting to open the app via URL Scheme. The issue appears to be that after uninstalling a hidden app and reinstalling it, the system fails to restore the app's URL Scheme functionality.

Hi everyone. Since the update to iOS 26, we are no longer able to tap the person's name and view the certificate of a signed email and choose to install the certificate or remove it. This has always worked just fine but seems to be broken on iOS 26 and I have verified that it does not work on iOS 26.1 beta as well. The part that is strange is it does work just fine on an iPad running iPad OS 26. This makes it impossible to send encrypted emails to someone via the mail app on an iPhone. I have found a temporary workaround which is to install Outlook for iOS and install the certificates through that app which then allows me to send encrypted emails via Outlook. This appears to be a bug just with the iPhone as I have also seen a few other people online talking about the same problem. Has anyone found a solution to this?

Area: Software Update Type of Feedback: Application Bug Description Device: iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 26 Build environment: Xcode 16.4 Problem description: When a text field has secureTextEntry = YES and Password Autofill / Passkeys is active, the autofill panel is not included in the rect reported from the keyboard notifications (UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey or others). As a result, when calculating the offset to move the screen up and reveal the hidden input field, the field is not displayed correctly because the reported keyboard height is smaller than the actual visible height. Observed behavior: This only occurs on devices running iOS 26 built with Xcode 16.4. On previous versions of iOS, with the same settings (secureTextEntry and Autofill active), the rect correctly includes the autofill panel height, and the UI works as expected. I tested with both UIKeyboardDidShowNotification and UIKeyboardWillChangeFrameNotification, and in both cases the behavior is the same: the height is incorrect (smaller than expected with the autofill panel). What I expect / questions: That UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey (or the related notification) correctly reports the total area covered by the keyboard, including any password autofill panel, when secureTextEntry is active. That the new behavior in iOS 26 be documented if this omission is intentional, or otherwise considered a bug if it is not. If there is any official workaround suggested by Apple for developers affected by this issue while a fix is provided. Thank you for your support.

since the release of iOS26 i get new reports of people making home screen apps of website pages that had camera accessibility to take pictures that mention the camera being 90degree sideways to what it should be. i have tested it myself and was able to reproduce the issue quite easily on iPhones 13|15|16 regular and pro versions. this affects all cameras when trying using them with navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({...})...

Hi there, I am new to Xcode26 and dragged my AppIcon.icon (created with Icon Composer) into the project. Then build failed with "Could not locate icontool". Could anyone point me to the cleanest way to solve this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

With macOS Tahoe, Launchpad has been replaced by an App Library–style mode within Spotlight. While the alleged intention is UX consistency across the Apple ecosystem, the result is both a catastrophic usability regression and a radical break in consistency with iOS and iPadOS. Predefined App Library categorization is functionally incoherent: On iOS and now macOS, Apple’s predefined App Library categories place apps with seemingly identical functionality into unrelated groups—for example, 3D scanning tools scattered across Education, Utilities, and Productivity. Instead of making apps easier to find, this effectively creates a labyrinth that users must traverse to locate apps whose names and icons they may not recall. However Apple defines its app categories, they are not only inconsistent but also hopelessly inadequate for the long tail of real-world applications and user workflows. Loss of user control: Launchpad enabled users to group and organize applications according to their workflows. This aligns with Apple’s own Human Interface Guidelines, which emphasize user control, discoverability, and predictable behavior. The new Spotlight interface removes that flexibility, locking users into predefined categories that both impede and mislead—and cannot be overridden. Consistency across platforms is broken: If the goal was to unify iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, this approach actually undermines consistency. On iOS and iPadOS, users can still rely on a customizable Home Screen—a Launchpad-like experience—as their primary way of launching apps. In Tahoe, that option has been removed. macOS now forces users to depend exclusively on Spotlight with App Library categories, while eliminating the very feature that was consistent across platforms. Catastrophic impact on my workflow: As an interdisciplinary artist working in 2D, 3D, and time-based media, as well as coding, I make extensive use of a constantly changing array of AI tools and experiment with many new apps and web services, which I often turn into Web Apps. I cannot possibly recall the names of every native and web app on my system. I need predictable access to groups of related tools. Tahoe’s new auto-categories split those apps apart arbitrarily, slowing me down and interrupting established workflows, forcing me to navigate the aforementioned labyrinth just to find what I need. Proposal: A constructive way forward High-level objective: Simply restore Launchpad—or restore the ability to customize app categories/folders and manually assign apps to them, overriding or augmenting the predefined categories. This ensures users can launch apps according to their workflow, without needing to remember exact names or icons. Possible solutions: Allow manual subfolders within Applications, represented hierarchically in Spotlight. Provide a fullscreen Launchpad-like organizer (with uninstall via long-click, etc.), either as a replacement or toggleable option. Retain Apple’s auto-categories for those who prefer them, but let users override or augment them with their own. In summary: Tahoe eliminates a working, consistent paradigm (Launchpad/Home Screen) and forces reliance on an App Library system that categorizes poorly and cannot be customized. This is both a step backwards in functionality and a break in cross-platform consistency. A constructive solution is to restore Launchpad—or at least restore the ability for users to organize apps in ways that fit their workflows.

Hi Ed Ford, thank you for your response. I tried to reply directly in the forum with the requested output, but I keep receiving an error message ("Your post couldn’t be saved. Please try again in a few minutes."). It seems I cannot currently post a follow-up reply. Just to notify you: I ran the command you suggested, but my shell reports zsh: command not found: devicectl. Thank you!

With ios 26 the chapter images are not updating anymore. At first I thought this is carlay related but it also occures when the phone is connected only through USB or bluetooth to play a podcast. I tried Apple podcasts and other apps like Pocketcast or audible. Same problem. The phone shows the correct chapter image while my car shows the inital image all the time. Even tried a different car :-) I checked focus and settings but found nothing related. With ios18 everything works fine. Any ideas?

I have a iPhone 16 pro for two months and since have put 26 beta my batTrey is draining much quicker
