Hi,
I'm trying to implement web-browser SignIn with Apple with my new app.
I'm trying to "Associate your website to your app" like described in this doc: https://developer.apple.com/help/account/capabilities/configure-sign-in-with-apple-for-the-web
So I created a Service ID for this specific login. I want this login page to display my app icon and name when presented to users.
My issue:
When I associate my new app the the service, the link is somehow not working.
The login page show the "service" login (with a generic apple logo and the Service ID's name) instead of the actual App name.
I'v been able to link my new service to older apps succesfully !!! (the login page correctly shows the old apps icons and names)
Why is my new app not associated with the service ?
I am missing something here ? is there an additionnal step that I need to take in order to link the service to my newest app ?
Thanks !

Problem
I am getting this error when sending an email:
Reporting-MTA: dns; mailfout.stl.internal
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: B87481D0015B
X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; hello@mydomain.com
Arrival-Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2025 03:37:29 -0500 (EST)

Action: failed
Status: 5.1.1
Remote-MTA: dns; smtp3.privaterelay.appleid.com
Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 550 5.1.1 <hello@mydomain.com>: unauthorized sender
What have I done?
I have configured mydomain.com in the Email Configuration Service inside of apple, as well as the email hello@mydomain.com.
Using https://www.mail-tester.com/, I could confirm that the
- [SPF] Your server 202.12.124.158 is authorized to use hello@mydomain.com
- Your DKIM signature is valid
- Your message passed the DMARC test
My hunch
This app was transferred and the previous owner did not have the email configuration set up.
The emails I am writing messages to signed up at that time.
Questions:
If I rescue the old account and set up the email configuration, would it work?
Is there any other tip I could try to apply?
If a user triggers account revoke on their Apple ID—but does not perform an in-app account deletion—will Apple send a server-to-server notification to inform us of this revoke event?
Additionally, in this scenario, if the user later wants to restore access to their existing game account data (for example, by re-binding Sign in with Apple or switching to another login method), are developers expected to restore all previously linked game data, or should the revoke event be treated as a permanent loss of authorization?
Hello everyone!
We are from Russia, and we no longer have an official Apple store. All phones are imported through parallel imports.
Yesterday, my wife logged out of her Apple ID and logged in to someone else's account, and as a result, her phone was in lost and locked mode. We have a sales receipt confirming the purchase, but it is from a Russian store.
Can you please tell me if there is a way to unlock the phone or if it is already a brick?
Scammers are asking for money to unlock the phone.
Thank you in advance for your reply!

Hi, we are having Sign in with Apple issues. For a large % of new users on our app which select this option, the first name and last name values are not being passed to us. This is the case in both scenarios - where the user shares their email address or hides it, and happens on iPhone when the user selects the default iCloud account. We're unclear why this is occurring.

Recently I am trying to implement apple oauth in expo web version, I created the service id and other related info, i have issue
@PostMapping("/callback")
public ResponseEntity handleAppleCallback(@RequestParam Map<String, String> body) {
String code = body.get("code");
String idToken = body.get("id_token");
if (code == null) {
return ResponseEntity.badRequest().build();
}
// Redirect to your Expo Web app with the code in query
String frontendUrl = "https://mobile-dot-dev-epicportal.uc.r.appspot.com/apple-callback?code=" + code;
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.FOUND)
.header("Location", frontendUrl)
.build();
}
when i pass the code recived from apple to this route i am getting invalid_grant
i am not sure what is wrong here
I no longer have an app on the store. I do have an apple books account on the same login but there's no need for me to have the appstore connect account or whatever you call it and keep getting notifications when I don't have an app, don't want an app, will never do another app.

Hi everyone,
I have followed all the Apple procedures, read the forums, and looked at various experiences of other users who had my problem, but I haven’t found a solution.
On my site, I have added login with all the “big” providers, and Apple is the only one missing. I’ve tried everything, but when the user logs in and is authenticated, I get an error. In order, here’s what I receive:
Received Apple code: cfbf091dd6...
JWT generated correctly
HTTP Error (400): {"error":"invalid_client"}
I’ve read all sorts of things, including that you have to wait up to 48 hours for the Key to be enabled.
Any ideas? I’ve read that this is a common problem, but I haven’t found a valid solution.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.
Hello,
I’m experiencing an issue with email deliverability when sending messages through Apple’s private email relay service.
Our app uses “Sign in with Apple” and sends communication emails to users through relay addresses . Messages are successfully delivered but are consistently being placed in users’ spam or junk folders.
Configuration summary:
Domain: myapp.example
Mail server: OVH SMTP
SPF and DKIM: Active and validated
Domain and sender registered under “Sign in with Apple for Email Communication”
Messages pass SPF and DKIM checks successfully, but emails relayed by Apple’s private service are still being marked as spam.
Could anyone confirm if there are additional steps or configurations required to improve deliverability (e.g., DMARC alignment or specific header requirements)?
Thank you for your help!
Hi everyone,
We just completed an App Store Connect app transfer between two developer teams and ran into what seems like an inconsistency with TN3159 (Migrating Sign in with Apple users for an app transfer).
According to the technote, both the source and destination teams should be able to call /auth/usermigrationinfo for 60 days after the transfer, even if the migration wasn’t run beforehand. However, right after the transfer completed, the source team (Team A) started receiving:
{"error":"invalid_client"}
on all /auth/usermigrationinfo requests, even though /auth/token with scope=user.migration still works fine.
What we verified before transfer:
Team A’s Sign in with Apple key (ES256) was linked to the app and Services ID.
OAuth flow for com.org.appname.web returned valid tokens, and the decoded ID token showed aud=com.org.appname.web with a valid private relay email, confirming the key was trusted.
What happens after transfer:
The key now shows “Enabled Services: —” and the App/Services IDs are no longer selectable in the Developer portal.
/auth/usermigrationinfo immediately returns invalid_client for Team A, even within the same day of the transfer.
This effectively makes Team A unable to generate transfer_sub values, blocking the migration flow TN3159 describes.
Questions:
Is Team A supposed to retain authorization to call /auth/usermigrationinfo for 60 days post-transfer?
If yes, is there any known workaround to re-authorize the key or temporarily re-bind it to the transferred identifiers?
If not, does this mean transfer_sub must be generated before transfer acceptance, contrary to how TN3159 reads?
Would really appreciate any confirmation or guidance from Apple or anyone who’s gone through this recently.
Thanks,

I understand from the recent Apple Developer News that Korean developers are now required to register a URL to receive notifications from the Apple server when creating or modifying a Sign in With Apple Service ID. However, it is not clear whether simply registering the URL is sufficient, or if it is also mandatory to implement the real-time processing of those notifications. I am inquiring whether the processing part is also a mandatory requirement.

Hello everybody,
in my React Native-Expo-Firebase app, I am trying to integrate Sign in with Apple, along with the related token revocation at user deletion.
I did succeed in integrating the login, and the app correctly appears in the Apple Id list (the list of apps currently logged with Apple ID).
The problem is that, if I select the app and press "Interrupt Apple login usage for this app", the app simply stays there, nothing happens.
If I do the same with another app, this works fine.
Either if I do this via my iPhone's settings, or via https://account.apple.com/account/manage -> Sign in with Apple, I get the same result, the app cannot be removed.
I hope I managed to explain my situation clearly, I'd be happy to provide more info if necessary.
Thank you in advance.

Authentication Services
I received Apple’s recent notice about the new requirement to provide a server-to-server notification endpoint when registering or updating a Services ID that uses Sign in with Apple.
(Official notice: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=j9zukcr6
)
We already use Sign in with Apple on our website and app, but only as a login method for pre-registered users, not as a way to create new accounts.
That means users already exist in our system, and Apple login is used only for authentication convenience (similar to linking a social account).
I have some questions about how to properly implement the required server-to-server notifications in this case:
1. email-enabled / email-disabled:
We don’t use or store the email address provided by Apple.
Are we still required to handle these events, or can we safely ignore them if the email is not used in our system?
2. consent-revoked:
We don’t store Apple access or refresh tokens, we use them only during login and discard them immediately.
In this case, do we still need to handle token revocation, or can we simply unlink the Apple login from the user account when receiving this notification?
3. account-delete:
If a user deletes their Apple account, we can unlink the Apple login and remove related Apple data,
but we cannot delete the user’s primary account in our system (since the account exists independently).
Is this acceptable under Apple’s requirements as well?
We want to make sure our implementation aligns with Apple’s policy and privacy requirements, while maintaining consistency with our existing account management system.
If anyone from Apple or other developers who implemented similar logic could provide guidance or share examples, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Sign in with Apple
I'm experiencing an issue with Sign In with Apple integration in my React Native Expo app (Bundle ID: com.anonymous.TuZjemyApp).
Problem Description:
When users attempt to sign in using Sign In with Apple, they successfully complete Face ID/password authentication, but then receive a "Sign-Up not completed" error message. The authentication flow appears to stop at this point and doesn't return the identity token to my app.
Technical Details:
Frontend Implementation:
Using expo-apple-authentication.
Requesting scopes: FULL_NAME and EMAIL
App is properly configured in app.json with:
usesAppleSignIn: true
Entitlement: com.apple.developer.applesignin
Backend Implementation:
Endpoint: POST /api/auth/apple
Using apple-signin-auth package for token verification
Verifying tokens with audience: com.anonymous.TuZjemyApp
Backend creates/updates user accounts based on Apple ID
Question:
I'm not sure why the authentication flow stops with "Sign-Up not completed" after successful Face ID verification. The identity token never reaches my app. Could you please help me understand:
What might cause this specific error message?
Are there any additional Apple Developer Portal configurations required?
Could this be related to app capabilities or entitlements?
Is there a specific setup needed for the app to properly receive identity tokens?
I set up provisioning profiles, and added Sign in with Apple as a capability and still it doesn't work.
Hello, I currently have an app that includes the "Sign in with Apple" feature, and I need to transfer this app to another app team. I have reviewed all official documentation but have not found the answer I need. My situation has some specificities, and I hope to receive assistance.
The .p8 key created by the original developer team has been lost, and the app’s backend does not use a .p8 key for verification—instead, it verifies by obtaining Apple’s public key. However, according to the official documentation I reviewed, obtaining a transfer identifier during the app transfer process requires a client_secret generated from the original team’s .p8 key. This has left us facing a challenge, and we have two potential approaches to address this issue:
Q1: During the transfer, is it possible to skip obtaining the transfer identifier and proceed directly with the app transfer, without performing any backend operations? Is this approach feasible?
Q2: If the above approach is not feasible, should we create a new .p8 key in the original team’s account and use this new key for the transfer? If a new key is generated, do we need to re-release a new version of the app before initiating the transfer?
If neither of the above approaches is feasible, are there better solutions to resolve our issue? I hope to receive a response. Thank you.

Sign in with Apple
Problem Summary
I'm experiencing a persistent invalid-credential error with Apple Sign-In on iOS despite having verified every aspect of the configuration over the past 6 months. The error occurs at the Firebase Authentication level after successfully receiving credentials from Apple.
Error Message: Firebase auth error: invalid-credential - Invalid OAuth response from apple.com. Environment
Platform: iOS (Flutter app)
Firebase Auth: v5.7.0
Sign in with Apple: v6.1.2
Xcode: Latest version with capability enabled
iOS Target: 13.0+
Bundle ID: com.harmonics.orakl
What Actually Happens
✅ Apple Sign-In popup appears
✅ User can authenticate with Apple ID
✅ Apple returns credentials with identityToken
❌ Firebase rejects with invalid-credential error
The error occurs at Firebase level, not Apple level.
What I've Tried
Created a brand new Apple Key (previous key was 6 months old)
Tested with both App ID and Service ID in Firebase
Completely reinstalled CocoaPods dependencies
Verified nonce handling is correct (hashed to Apple, raw to Firebase)
Activated Firebase Hosting and attempted to deploy .well-known file
Checked Cloud Logging (no detailed error messages found)
Disabled and re-enabled Apple Sign-In provider in Firebase
Verified Return URL matches exactly
Waited and retried multiple times over 6 months
Questions
Is the .well-known/apple-developer-domain-association.txt file required? If yes, how should it be generated? Firebase Hosting doesn't auto-generate it.
Could there be a server-side caching/blacklist issue with my domain or Service ID after multiple failed attempts?
Should the Apple Key be linked to the Service ID instead of the App ID? The key shows as linked to Z3NNDZVWMZ.com.harmonics.orakl (the App ID).
Is there any way to get more detailed error logs from Firebase about why it's rejecting the Apple OAuth response?
Could using a custom domain instead of .firebaseapp.com resolve the issue?
Additional Context
Google Sign-In works perfectly on the same app
The configuration has been reviewed by multiple developers
Error persists across different devices and iOS versions
No errors in Xcode console except the Firebase rejection
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've exhausted all standard troubleshooting steps and documentation.
Project Details:
Bundle ID: com.harmonics.orakl
Firebase Project: harmonics-app
Team ID: Z3N.......
code : // 1. Generate raw nonce
final String rawNonce = _generateRandomNonce();
// 2. Hash with SHA-256
final String hashedNonce = _sha256Hash(rawNonce);
// 3. Send HASHED nonce to Apple ✅
final appleCredential = await SignInWithApple.getAppleIDCredential(
scopes: [AppleIDAuthorizationScopes.email, AppleIDAuthorizationScopes.fullName],
nonce: hashedNonce, // Correct: hashed nonce to Apple
);
// 4. Create Firebase credential with RAW nonce ✅
final oauthCredential = OAuthProvider("apple.com").credential(
idToken: appleCredential.identityToken!,
rawNonce: rawNonce, // Correct: raw nonce to Firebase
);
// 5. Sign in with Firebase - ERROR OCCURS HERE ❌
await FirebaseAuth.instance.signInWithCredential(oauthCredential);

We are working on a PoC iOS App to use "Sign in with Apple" on iOS. The app needs to authenticate the current user on MDM managed corporate iPads (with Shared iPad enabled) and each user having a Managed Apple ID (created in Apple Business Manager).
We have started with Apple's example app:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices/implementing-user-authentication-with-sign-in-with-apple
When we run it on a normal iPad (without MDM supervision) it works fine.
When we run the same code on a managed iPad with Shared iPad enabled and Managed Apple ID's the app errors out when a user taps the "Sign in with Apple" button.
A User-facing error message is displayed:
“Your Apple Account cannot be used to create accounts for other apps.”
And when we run the app from Xcode we see the following logs:
Authorization failed: Error Domain=AKAuthenticationError Code=-7027 "(null)" UserInfo={AKClientBundleID=com.sampleapp.test2}
LaunchServices: store (null) or url (null) was nil: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler}
Attempt to map database failed: permission was denied. This attempt will not be retried.
Failed to initialize client context with error Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler}
Failed to get application extension record: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "(null)"
ASAuthorizationController credential request failed with error: Error Domain=com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError Code=1000 "(null)"
Could not authenticate: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.AuthenticationServices.AuthorizationError error 1000.)
We have confirmed that in ABM "Sign in with Apple" feature is enabled with "Allowed apps": "All apps".
We have also confirmed that the Managed AppleIDs created in ABM have no field to provide the birthday of the user and therefore ruling out age restrictions for "Sign in with Apple".
Is "Sign in with Apple" supported in MDM managed iPADs with
Shared iPad enabled and managed AppleIDs?
If it is supported, do we know what other configurations we need to get it to work?
Do we know why "Sign in with Apple" would error out with
Authorization failed: Error Domain=AKAuthenticationError Code=-7027 "(null)" UserInfo={AKClientBundleID=com.sampleapp.test2} LaunchServices: store (null) or url (null) was nil: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72,
Environment:
• iPadOS version: IPadOS Version 18.7
• Xcode version: Version 26.0 (17A324)
• Device type: iPad Air 11-inch (M3) in Shared iPad mode
• Account type: Managed Apple ID created in ABM enrolled with Intune MDM)
Thank you
"Our app has absolutely no integration with DiDi login. We only integrate WeChat, QQ, carrier, and Apple ID login, and all related login entry icons are local resources.

Hi,
Before I begin my investigation, I want to explain our code-level support process for issues related to Sign in with Apple—as the issue you’re reporting may be the result of any of the following:
An error in your app or web service request.
A configuration issue in your Developer Account.
An internal issue in the operation system or Apple ID servers.
To ensure the issue is not caused by an error within your app or web service request, please review TN3107: Resolving Sign in with Apple response errors to learn more about common error causes and potential solutions when performing requests.
If the technote does not help identify the cause of the error, I need more information about your app or web services to get started. To prevent sending sensitive JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) in plain text, you should create a report in Feedback Assistant to share the details requested below. Additionally, if I determine the error is caused by an internal issue in the operating system or Apple ID servers, the appropriate engineering teams have access to the same information and can communicate with you directly for more information, if needed. Please follow the instructions below to submit your feedback.
Gathering required information for troubleshooting Sign in with Apple authorization and token requests
For issues occurring with your native app, perform the following steps:
Install the Accounts/AuthKit profile on your iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, or visionOS device.
Reproduce the issue and make a note of the timestamp when the issue occurred, while optionally capturing screenshots or video.
Gather a sysdiagnose on the same iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, or visionOS device.
Create a report in Feedback Assistant, and ensure your feedback contains the following information:
the primary App ID or Bundle ID
the user’s Apple ID, email address, and/or identity token
the sysdiagnose gathered after reproducing the issue
the timestamp of when the issue was reproduced
screenshots or videos of errors and unexpected behaviors (optional)
For issues occurring with your web service, ensure your feedback contains the following information:
the primary App ID and Services ID
the user’s Apple ID, email address, and/or identity token
the failing request, including all parameter values, and error responses (if applicable)
the timestamp of when the issue was reproduced (optional)
screenshots or videos of errors and unexpected behaviors (optional)
Important: If providing a web service request, please ensure the client secret (JWT) has an extended expiration time (exp) of at least ten (10) business days, so I have enough time to diagnose the issue. Additionally, if your request requires access token or refresh tokens, please provide refresh tokens as they do not have a time-based expiration time; most access tokens have a maximum lifetime of one (1) hour, and will expire before I have a chance to look at the issue.
Submitting your feedback
Before you submit to Feedback Assistant, please confirm the requested information above (for your native app or web service) is included in your feedback. Failure to provide the requested information will only delay my investigation into the reported issue within your Sign in with Apple client.
After your submission to Feedback Assistant is complete, please respond in your existing Developer Forums post with the Feedback ID. Once received, I can begin my investigation and determine if this issue is caused by an error within your client, a configuration issue within your developer account, or an underlying system bug.
Cheers,
