Latest Xcode build giving multiple system level errors
with the latest Xcode version, i am getting all kinds of errors: few main ones: /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Target Support Files/ReactCodegen/ReactCodegen-prefix.pch:2:9 Could not build module 'UIKit' /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator18.4.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/CFNetwork.framework/Headers/CFNetwork.h:18:10 Could not build module 'CoreFoundation' /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Headers/Public/RCT-Folly/folly/portability/Config.h:20:10 'folly/folly-config.h' file not found I have reinstalled Xcode, removed derived data, installed pod over and over again, but I have realized from the first error here, that it has more to do with Xcode and React Native now. Any help will be appreciated.

devicectl: clarify username requirement for "certain" domains
Hi there, When using devicectl to manage files: It's unclear for which domains the username should be provided It's unclear how to determine the username Listing files USAGE: devicectl device info files [<options>] --device <uuid|ecid|serial_number|udid|name|dns_name> --domain-type <domain-type> FILE OPTIONS: --username <username> The username of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains. --domain-type <domain-type> The file service domain. Valid values are: temporary, appDataContainer, appGroupDataContainer, systemCrashLogs. You must specify a valid domain and identifier pair. Certain domains must be accompanied by an identifier that provides additional context. For example, if the domain is an app data container, the identifier is the bundle ID of the app. For temporary directories, the identifier is a unique client-provided string which is used to get your own space, separate from those of other clients. --domain-identifier <domain-identifier> A unique string used to provide additional context to the domain. --username The username of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains. In the domains, the username requirements are not mentioned. Copying files USAGE: devicectl device copy to --device <uuid|ecid|serial_number|udid|name|dns_name> --source <source> [--destination <destination>] [--user <user>] --domain-type <domain-type> [--domain-identifier <domain-identifier>] [--remove-existing-content <remove-existing-content>] [--verbose] [--quiet] [--timeout <seconds>] [--json-output <path>] [--log-output <path>] DEVICE OPTIONS: -d, --device <uuid|ecid|serial_number|udid|name|dns_name> The identifier, ECID, serial number, UDID, user-provided name, or DNS name of the device. FILE OPTIONS: --source <source> The item which should be copied. --destination <destination> The location to which the item should be copied. -u, --user <user> The name of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains. --domain-type <domain-type> The file service domain. Valid values are: temporary, appDataContainer, appGroupDataContainer, systemCrashLogs. You must specify a valid domain and identifier pair. Certain domains must be accompanied by an identifier that provides additional context. For example, if the domain is an app data container, the identifier is the bundle ID of the app. For temporary directories, the identifier is a unique client-provided string which is used to get your own space, separate from those of other clients. --domain-identifier <domain-identifier> A unique string used to provide additional context to the -u, --user The name of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains. The "certain domains" are not specified. user vs username The list files command takes: --username <username> The username of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains The copy command takes: -u, --user <user> The name of the user we should target. Only relevant for certain domains. Is there a difference between username and user? How do we figure out the user or username? From https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/749649 I learned that about the "mobile" value, but why, and how?

Xcode 16.1 hang after adding Store Kit configuration
I don't know Xcode very well, and had been using it sporadically to test a project exported from Unity. I recently added a StoreKit Configuration to the project, and since then it gives me ≈10s after launching before the beach ball appears, and it never leaves. Xcode says it is "Indexing" but I don't know if that's an obvious culprit. I can still build my project via the fastlane tool, on the command line, and the newly-added StoreKit configuration works just fine. But I cannot use Xcode interactively any more, unless I re-export the project from Unity. The only difference between it working and hanging is the Store Kit configuration. How do I understand what's going on, and (ideally) fix it? The Activity Monitor gives a bunch of backtraces that don't have an obvious network or I/O culprit in them.

AR location errors on cellular + WiFi model iPad with device connected to Wi-Fi
I am developing an Augmented Reality (AR) navigation application for the iPad, utilizing the ARCL library to place Points of Interest (POIs) in the real world. The application's behavior varies significantly based on the device's networking configuration: Cellular Network (Expected Behavior): On an iPad with a cellular modem, when using the cellular network, all POIs are placed accurately with correct orientation. Wi-Fi Only (Expected Behavior): On a Wi-Fi-only model (no GPS chip), POI placement is inaccurate, confirming the need for an external GPS receiver for that hardware configuration. Cellular + Wi-Fi (Anomalous Behavior): The iPad is a cellular model (equipped with GNSS/GPS). The device is connected to a Wi-Fi network (enforced via an MDM profile, preventing the user from disabling Wi-Fi). When actively connected to this specific Wi-Fi network, the AR POIs consistently display with an incorrect orientation and placement, even though the device hardware has a dedicated GPS chip. The placement error strongly suggests that the device's determined location or heading is erroneous. It appears that the active Wi-Fi connection is somehow interfering with or overriding the high-accuracy GNSS/GPS data, leading to a flawed Core Location determination that negatively impacts the ARCL world tracking and anchor placement. Has anyone experienced a scenario where an active Wi-Fi connection on a cellular iPad model causes Core Location to prioritize less accurate location data (potentially Wi-Fi-based location services) over the device's built-in GNSS/GPS, resulting in severe orientation errors? We observed that on Apple map(native application) as well it is showing wrong location and orientation when it is connected to WiFi

Need Help Updating a Custom WireGuard SPM for Xcode 16 & Swift 6
Hey iOS Dev's, I’m currently working on a Swift Package Manager (SPM) for WireGuard, originally developed by a previous team member. It was working fine in Xcode 15.2, but after upgrading to Xcode 16 and Swift 6, I need to update the SPM to ensure compatibility with my base projects and other projects relying on it. With Apple making Xcode 16 mandatory for app submissions starting April 24, this has become an urgent issue. I’ve searched extensively but haven’t found a working solution yet. Has anyone faced similar challenges with Swift 6 migration and SPM updates? Any insights, best practices, or debugging tips would be greatly appreciated! Let’s connect and collaborate—I’d love to discuss possible solutions! 😊 #iOSDevelopment #Swift6 #Xcode16 #SPM #WireGuard #iOS #Swift #SoftwareEngineering #AppStore

Invalid binary for tvOS app which integrates an xcframework
We're building an SDK (let's call it MyFramework) which is distributed as an .xcframework for developers to integrate it into their own apps. Recently, we've added tvOS support by adding it as a supported destination for the SDK. Essentially, the SDK became a cross-platform framework and easy to be adopted in both iOS and tvOS apps. The .xcframework is generated fine, all builds correctly. We've tested the SDK integrated in test apps. We've also submitted an iOS archive app to the AppStore connect, just to make sure all is well with the AppStore submission. However, when I tried submitting a tvOS archive app (that integrates the same SDK) to the AppStore connect, the build was marked as invalid binary and we've got the following error message: ITMS-90562: Invalid Bundle - One of the nested bundles is built for a platform which is different from the main bundle platform. Please make sure that all bundles have correct platform specification. First, I thought that any of the modules of the framework was not correctly configured for tvOS but that was not the case. Everything compiles ok and it runs in debug as expected. It only fails when trying to submit the tvOS app that integrates the SDK. After a lot of investigating, we realised that the reason for the AppStore submission error is because we codesign the framework. We use codesign to distribute it as cryptographically signed xcframework. codesign --timestamp -v --sign "Apple Distribution: Company (xxxxxxxxxx)" "MyFramework.xcframework" As soon as we remove the above line from our CI/CD pipeline that generates the xcframework, and submit a tvOS archive app that integrates the unsigned framework, the AppStore submission error goes away and the TestFlight build can be tested. I've also tried to just strip the _CodeSignature folder from the .xcframework package but it still fails. So the only solution currently is to not codesign the xcframework to be able to upload tvOS archive apps that integrate the SDK to the AppStore connect. However, we're still puzzled as to why only the tvOS archive app gets the invalid binary error when it integrates a signed SDK. I feel like the error message is quite misleading if we have to stop signing the SDK xcframework for it to be accepted during the AppStore submission. Anyone has any idea? Or has anyone encountered a similar issue? Thanks!

Is it possible to set the Derived Data location differently for different projects?
Within Xcode's settings location section is a drop down menu to switch between setting the derived data location to be default, relative or custom. However its a global setting. I work on more than one project simultaneously, and for one of them I want the location set to relative, but default for all the others. Is there any way of achieving that?

Standard Memory Debugging Tools
In many cases I’ll be talking to folks with a memory management problem and I’ll say “You should investigate this with the standard memory debugging tools.” They then turn around and ask me “What are those tools?” Well, this is what I mean: Zombies — This lets you quickly detect when an object is used after it’s been deallocated. Learn more about it in the Finding zombies section of the Instruments Help and in Investigating crashes for zombie objects. There was also an excellent WWDC video about this, namely, WWDC 2010 Session 311 Advanced Memory Analysis with Instruments. This is no longer available in the video archive but if you can find a copy it’s well worth a watch. Address Sanitizer — This is a lower-level tool that finds a variety of common memory management issues, including use after free and buffer overruns. Learn more about this in Diagnosing memory, thread, and crash issues early and the various articles it links to. There’s also a good discussion of this tool, and other Xcode runtime diagnostic tools, in WWDC 2017 Session 406 Finding Bugs Using Xcode Runtime Tools (also no longer available from Apple). Hardware memory tagging — If you have access to a device with hardware memory tagging — starting with the A19 or M5 processors — consider enabling Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE). For the details, see Enabling enhanced security for your app or watch Secure your app with Memory Integrity Enforcement. Even if you don’t want to do that for your production app, enable it just for development by checking Hardware Memory Tagging in the Options tab of Xcode’s scheme editor. Older tools — There are a variety of older tools that might be useful in some specific circumstances. See the Enabling the Malloc Debugging Features section of the Memory Usage Performance Guidelines for more information about these. Of specific interest is libgmalloc, which is documented in a UNIX man page. For some practical examples of how to identity a memory management crash report and then investigate that crash with these tools, take a look at WWDC 2018 Session 414 Understanding Crashes and Crash Logs. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" Revision History: 2026-03-02 Added a discussion of hardware memory tagging. 2023-05-09 Added a link to Investigating crashes for zombie objects. 2023-03-22 Removed another WWDC session video link. Made minor editorial changes. 2020-10-23 Fixed some formatting errors. 2019-10-30 Removed the link to WWDC 2010 Session 311 Advanced Memory Analysis with Instruments because it’s not long available in the archive. Refreshed all the other links. 2019-01-22 Fixed the link to libgmalloc. 2018-11-02 Updated to include a reference to WWDC 2018 Session 414 Understanding Crashes and Crash Logs. 2017-11-16 First posted.

Posting a Crash Report
If you need help investigating a crash, please include a crash report in your post. To smooth things along, follow these guidelines: For information on how to get a crash report, see Acquiring crash reports and diagnostic logs. Include the whole crash report as a text attachment (click the paperclip icon and then choose Add File). This avoids clogging up the timeline while also preserving the wealth of information in the crash report. If you’re not able to post your crash report as an attachment, see Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment below. If you want to highlight a section of the report, include it in the main body of your post. Put the snippet in a code block so that it renders nicely. To create a code block, add a delimiter line containing triple backquotes before and after the block, or just click the Code Block button. If possible, post an Apple crash report. Third-party crash reporters are often missing critical information and have general reliability problems (for an explanation as to why, see Implementing Your Own Crash Reporter). Symbolicate your crash report before posting it. For information on how to do this, see Adding identifiable symbol names to a crash report. If you need to redact the crash report, do so consistently. Imagine you’re building the WaffleVarnish app whose bundle ID is com.example.wafflevarnish but you want to keep your new waffle varnishing technology secret. Replace WaffleVarnish with WwwwwwVvvvvvv and com.example.wafflevarnish with com.eeeeeee.wwwwwwvvvvvvv. This keeps the text in the crash report aligned while making it possible to distinguish the human-readible name of the app (WaffleVarnish) from the bundle ID (com.example.wafflevarnish). Finally, for information on how to use a crash report to debug your own problems, see Diagnosing issues using crash reports and device logs. Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment Crash reports have two common extensions: .crash and .ips. If you have an .ips file, please post that [1]. DevForums lets you attach a .crash file but not an .ips file (r. 117468172). To work around this, change the extension to .txt. If DevForums complains that your crash report “contains sensitive language”, leave it out of your initial post and attach it to a reply. That often avoids this roadblock. If you still can’t post your crash report, upload it to a file sharing service and include the URL in your post. Post the URL in the clear, per tip 14 in Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips. Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser The Xcode organiser shows crash reports from customers. If you’re investigating such a crash and want to post a crash report: Navigate to the crash in the Xcode organiser. Note If you can’t see the right crash, check the filter popups at the top. In the list of crashes, secondary click on your crash and choose Show in Finder. That reveals the Xcode crashpoint document (.xccrashpoint) in the Finder. Secondary click on that and choose Show Package Contents. In the resulting Finder window, find a crash report (.crash) that accurately represents the crash you’re investigating and attach that to your forums post. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" [1] Because it’s easy to go from an .ips file to a .crash file. I usually do this by choosing File > Quick Look in the Finder. For more info about these file formats, see this post. Revision History: 2025-08-29 Added the Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser section. 2024-11-21 Added a recommendation to post the .ips format if possible. 2024-05-21 Added some advice regarding the “contains sensitive language” message. 2023-10-25 Added the Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment section. Made other minor editorial changes. 2021-08-26 First posted.

iOS App'te Elektronik Sözleşme Onayı ve Hukuki Geçerlilik Süreci (KVKK - SwiftUI)
Merhaba, iOS üzerinde bir sözleşme onay uygulaması geliştiriyorum. Kullanıcıların dijital ortamda sözleşmeleri okuyup onaylaması gerekiyor. Ancak hukuki geçerlilik konusunda bazı tereddütlerim vardı. Bursa’da yaşayan biri olarak bu konuda bir avukata danışmam gerekti. Şans eseri https://www.avukatcanata.com ile karşılaştım ve hem bireysel hem ticari sözleşmeler konusunda gerçekten çok net açıklamalar sundular. Özellikle elektronik imza ve KVKK uyumu hakkında verdikleri bilgiler sayesinde projemi yasal zemine oturtabildim. Eğer bu tarz uygulamalar geliştiriyorsanız, mutlaka bir hukukçu görüşü alın. Yanlış bir adım size veya kullanıcınıza ciddi sonuçlar doğurabilir. Teşekkürler 🍏

Cannot Upload Images on Swift Playground on XCode
Hello! I'm trying to upload images to Swift Playground on XCode, and it's not working. When I created my playground, there is no Resources folder or an assets file. If I simply drag an image file to the sidebar, the image is not showing up when used in the app. This may be a simple fix, but as a beginner, I am struggling to find the solution. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Icon Composer showing werid images
Hey guys! I downloaded Apple’s Icon Composer to build my iOS 26 app icon. I exported my SVG from Illustrator (and verified it through Canva and the W3C validator). However, when I import it into Icon Composer, it looks really weird . There are these bubble-like artifacts appearing in the center. Here's my orignal svg icon file trace-logo.txt Any help will be appreciated! Best, Justin

Need Help Updating a Custom WireGuard SPM for Xcode 16 & Swift 6
Hey iOS Dev's, I’m currently working on a Swift Package Manager (SPM) for WireGuard, originally developed by a previous team member. It was working fine in Xcode 15.2, but after upgrading to Xcode 16 and Swift 6, I need to update the SPM to ensure compatibility with my base projects and other projects relying on it. With Apple making Xcode 16 mandatory for app submissions starting April 24, this has become an urgent issue. I’ve searched extensively but haven’t found a working solution yet. Has anyone faced similar challenges with Swift 6 migration and SPM updates? Any insights, best practices, or debugging tips would be greatly appreciated! Let’s connect and collaborate—I’d love to discuss possible solutions! 😊 #iOSDevelopment #Swift6 #Xcode16 #SPM #WireGuard #iOS #Swift #SoftwareEngineering #AppStore

There is an issue with Korean consonants and vowels being separated in the simulator.
In Simulator Korean character system has not working well. I want to type "", however, if I type the same thing on the simulator's virtual keyboard (Korean), it comes out as ''. I think this is caused by IME system in ios simulator bug. I think this has been happening since IOS 17.

Invalid binary for tvOS app which integrates an xcframework
We're building an SDK (let's call it MyFramework) which is distributed as an .xcframework for developers to integrate it into their own apps. Recently, we've added tvOS support by adding it as a supported destination for the SDK. Essentially, the SDK became a cross-platform framework and easy to be adopted in both iOS and tvOS apps. The .xcframework is generated fine, all builds correctly. We've tested the SDK integrated in test apps. We've also submitted an iOS archive app to the AppStore connect, just to make sure all is well with the AppStore submission. However, when I tried submitting a tvOS archive app (that integrates the same SDK) to the AppStore connect, the build was marked as invalid binary and we've got the following error message: ITMS-90562: Invalid Bundle - One of the nested bundles is built for a platform which is different from the main bundle platform. Please make sure that all bundles have correct platform specification. First, I thought that any of the modules of the framework was not correctly configured for tvOS but that was not the case. Everything compiles ok and it runs in debug as expected. It only fails when trying to submit the tvOS app that integrates the SDK. After a lot of investigating, we realised that the reason for the AppStore submission error is because we codesign the framework. We use codesign to distribute it as cryptographically signed xcframework. codesign --timestamp -v --sign "Apple Distribution: Company (xxxxxxxxxx)" "MyFramework.xcframework" As soon as we remove the above line from our CI/CD pipeline that generates the xcframework, and submit a tvOS archive app that integrates the unsigned framework, the AppStore submission error goes away and the TestFlight build can be tested. I've also tried to just strip the _CodeSignature folder from the .xcframework package but it still fails. So the only solution currently is to not codesign the xcframework to be able to upload tvOS archive apps that integrate the SDK to the AppStore connect. However, we're still puzzled as to why only the tvOS archive app gets the invalid binary error when it integrates a signed SDK. I feel like the error message is quite misleading if we have to stop signing the SDK xcframework for it to be accepted during the AppStore submission. Anyone has any idea? Or has anyone encountered a similar issue? Thanks!

Call Tracking with CallKit Works in Debug Mode but Not in Release (TestFlight) – iOS
I am working on an iOS app using Flutter that tracks outgoing calls using CallKit. The call tracking functionality works perfectly in Debug mode but does not work when the app is published to TestFlight.

Is it possible to set the Derived Data location differently for different projects?
Within Xcode's settings location section is a drop down menu to switch between setting the derived data location to be default, relative or custom. However its a global setting. I work on more than one project simultaneously, and for one of them I want the location set to relative, but default for all the others. Is there any way of achieving that?

Standard Memory Debugging Tools
In many cases I’ll be talking to folks with a memory management problem and I’ll say “You should investigate this with the standard memory debugging tools.” They then turn around and ask me “What are those tools?” Well, this is what I mean: Zombies — This lets you quickly detect when an object is used after it’s been deallocated. Learn more about it in the Finding zombies section of the Instruments Help and in Investigating crashes for zombie objects. There was also an excellent WWDC video about this, namely, WWDC 2010 Session 311 Advanced Memory Analysis with Instruments. This is no longer available in the video archive but if you can find a copy it’s well worth a watch. Address Sanitizer — This is a lower-level tool that finds a variety of common memory management issues, including use after free and buffer overruns. Learn more about this in Diagnosing memory, thread, and crash issues early and the various articles it links to. There’s also a good discussion of this tool, and other Xcode runtime diagnostic tools, in WWDC 2017 Session 406 Finding Bugs Using Xcode Runtime Tools (also no longer available from Apple). Hardware memory tagging — If you have access to a device with hardware memory tagging — starting with the A19 or M5 processors — consider enabling Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE). For the details, see Enabling enhanced security for your app or watch Secure your app with Memory Integrity Enforcement. Even if you don’t want to do that for your production app, enable it just for development by checking Hardware Memory Tagging in the Options tab of Xcode’s scheme editor. Older tools — There are a variety of older tools that might be useful in some specific circumstances. See the Enabling the Malloc Debugging Features section of the Memory Usage Performance Guidelines for more information about these. Of specific interest is libgmalloc, which is documented in a UNIX man page. For some practical examples of how to identity a memory management crash report and then investigate that crash with these tools, take a look at WWDC 2018 Session 414 Understanding Crashes and Crash Logs. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" Revision History: 2026-03-02 Added a discussion of hardware memory tagging. 2023-05-09 Added a link to Investigating crashes for zombie objects. 2023-03-22 Removed another WWDC session video link. Made minor editorial changes. 2020-10-23 Fixed some formatting errors. 2019-10-30 Removed the link to WWDC 2010 Session 311 Advanced Memory Analysis with Instruments because it’s not long available in the archive. Refreshed all the other links. 2019-01-22 Fixed the link to libgmalloc. 2018-11-02 Updated to include a reference to WWDC 2018 Session 414 Understanding Crashes and Crash Logs. 2017-11-16 First posted.

Posting a Crash Report
If you need help investigating a crash, please include a crash report in your post. To smooth things along, follow these guidelines: For information on how to get a crash report, see Acquiring crash reports and diagnostic logs. Include the whole crash report as a text attachment (click the paperclip icon and then choose Add File). This avoids clogging up the timeline while also preserving the wealth of information in the crash report. If you’re not able to post your crash report as an attachment, see Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment below. If you want to highlight a section of the report, include it in the main body of your post. Put the snippet in a code block so that it renders nicely. To create a code block, add a delimiter line containing triple backquotes before and after the block, or just click the Code Block button. If possible, post an Apple crash report. Third-party crash reporters are often missing critical information and have general reliability problems (for an explanation as to why, see Implementing Your Own Crash Reporter). Symbolicate your crash report before posting it. For information on how to do this, see Adding identifiable symbol names to a crash report. If you need to redact the crash report, do so consistently. Imagine you’re building the WaffleVarnish app whose bundle ID is com.example.wafflevarnish but you want to keep your new waffle varnishing technology secret. Replace WaffleVarnish with WwwwwwVvvvvvv and com.example.wafflevarnish with com.eeeeeee.wwwwwwvvvvvvv. This keeps the text in the crash report aligned while making it possible to distinguish the human-readible name of the app (WaffleVarnish) from the bundle ID (com.example.wafflevarnish). Finally, for information on how to use a crash report to debug your own problems, see Diagnosing issues using crash reports and device logs. Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment Crash reports have two common extensions: .crash and .ips. If you have an .ips file, please post that [1]. DevForums lets you attach a .crash file but not an .ips file (r. 117468172). To work around this, change the extension to .txt. If DevForums complains that your crash report “contains sensitive language”, leave it out of your initial post and attach it to a reply. That often avoids this roadblock. If you still can’t post your crash report, upload it to a file sharing service and include the URL in your post. Post the URL in the clear, per tip 14 in Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips. Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser The Xcode organiser shows crash reports from customers. If you’re investigating such a crash and want to post a crash report: Navigate to the crash in the Xcode organiser. Note If you can’t see the right crash, check the filter popups at the top. In the list of crashes, secondary click on your crash and choose Show in Finder. That reveals the Xcode crashpoint document (.xccrashpoint) in the Finder. Secondary click on that and choose Show Package Contents. In the resulting Finder window, find a crash report (.crash) that accurately represents the crash you’re investigating and attach that to your forums post. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" [1] Because it’s easy to go from an .ips file to a .crash file. I usually do this by choosing File > Quick Look in the Finder. For more info about these file formats, see this post. Revision History: 2025-08-29 Added the Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser section. 2024-11-21 Added a recommendation to post the .ips format if possible. 2024-05-21 Added some advice regarding the “contains sensitive language” message. 2023-10-25 Added the Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment section. Made other minor editorial changes. 2021-08-26 First posted.

iOS App'te Elektronik Sözleşme Onayı ve Hukuki Geçerlilik Süreci (KVKK - SwiftUI)
Merhaba, iOS üzerinde bir sözleşme onay uygulaması geliştiriyorum. Kullanıcıların dijital ortamda sözleşmeleri okuyup onaylaması gerekiyor. Ancak hukuki geçerlilik konusunda bazı tereddütlerim vardı. Bursa’da yaşayan biri olarak bu konuda bir avukata danışmam gerekti. Şans eseri https://www.avukatcanata.com ile karşılaştım ve hem bireysel hem ticari sözleşmeler konusunda gerçekten çok net açıklamalar sundular. Özellikle elektronik imza ve KVKK uyumu hakkında verdikleri bilgiler sayesinde projemi yasal zemine oturtabildim. Eğer bu tarz uygulamalar geliştiriyorsanız, mutlaka bir hukukçu görüşü alın. Yanlış bir adım size veya kullanıcınıza ciddi sonuçlar doğurabilir. Teşekkürler 🍏

Cannot Upload Images on Swift Playground on XCode
Hello! I'm trying to upload images to Swift Playground on XCode, and it's not working. When I created my playground, there is no Resources folder or an assets file. If I simply drag an image file to the sidebar, the image is not showing up when used in the app. This may be a simple fix, but as a beginner, I am struggling to find the solution. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Marking video as watched doesn’t work in Apple’s Developer iOS app
I’m using Developer iOS app to watch WWDC session videos. i notice it doesn’t record a video as watched after I watched it and even manual marking it using Mark as Watch has no effect. I remember the issue started several years ago because some old WWDC videos were marked watches.
