Hello everyone in the iOS Devolution community! I'd like to share a suggestion that I believe would bring an unprecedented level of intelligence and comfort to the daily iPhone experience: Smart Adaptive Volume & Brightness. The Problem We Aim to Solve How many times has your iPhone rung too loudly in a quiet environment, embarrassing you in a meeting or waking someone up? Or, the opposite, you missed an important call on a busy street because the volume was too low? And what about screen brightness? It's a constant adjustment: too bright in the dark, hard to see in the sun. Currently, we have to manually adjust volume and brightness, or rely on Auto-Brightness (which only works for the screen) and Focus modes, which can be a bit "all or nothing." This leads to interruptions, frustration, and that feeling that your phone isn't really adapting to you. The Solution: Smart Adaptive Volume & Brightness My proposal is for iOS to use the iPhone's own sensors to dynamically adapt notification and ringtone volume, and screen brightness, to the environment we're in. How it would work in practice: Environmental Scan Before Ringing/Displaying: When a notification (call, message, app alert) is about to be delivered, and even before it makes a sound, the iPhone would briefly activate its sensors. The microphone would read the ambient noise level (in decibels), but without recording audio or analyzing any content. Just the "noise" of the surroundings. The ambient light sensor would assess the light intensity around the device. Intelligent and Coordinated Adjustment: Based on these combined readings of noise and brightness, iOS would make the adjustments: In noisy and bright environments (e.g., on the street during the day): The ringtone volume would be automatically increased to ensure you hear it, and the screen brightness would also be raised to facilitate viewing in strong light. In quiet and dark environments (e.g., cinema, bedroom at night): The volume would be discreetly reduced to avoid disturbances, and the screen brightness would be dimmed for your visual comfort and to avoid bothering others. Adjustments would be gradual, adapting to any type of environment (office, cafe, etc.). User Control: Of course, we'd have the option to enable or disable "Smart Adaptive Volume & Brightness" in the settings. We could also define minimum and maximum limits for these automatic adjustments, ensuring the iPhone adapts to our personal comfort levels. This feature would complement existing Focus modes, operating within the permissions of any active Focus. The Benefits for the User Goodbye to Inconvenient Interruptions: No more startling loud rings in quiet places. Never Miss a Call Again: In noisy environments, your iPhone will adapt to be heard. Constant Visual Comfort: The screen will always be at the ideal brightness, without blinding you in the dark or disappearing in the sun. Smoother Experience: Fewer manual adjustments, more time to focus on what matters. Guaranteed Privacy: The use of microphones and sensors would be strictly for environmental measurement, without recording or analyzing personal data. I believe this feature would bring a new level of intelligence and usability to iOS, making the iPhone even more intuitive and adapted to our daily lives. What do you all think of this idea?

In our app we are running into a few issues with pending purchases staying on receipt indefinitely. These are consumable purchases where we received the purchase succeeded from apple but then something went wrong on our servers to validate and confirm the purchase. At this point the purchase stays on the apple receipt indefinitely or until we confirm it. The problem is there are lots of scenarios where we can't confirm purchases anymore (like a game world expired/banned player/etc). So there's a few things I'd like to know to see how this could be handle correctly. 1- Was the user already charged, and if yes would they ever be refunded if the purchase is not confirmed (some sort of expiry)? 2- Is there a way to cancel this sort of pending transaction directly from the app or backend? 3- If one of these users asked for a refund from apple would this clear the purchase from the receipt? Any information would be greatI couldn't find a lot of info on this topic.

I've turned on Swift 6 language mode and noticed that during runtime Xcode gives this warning for a new widget (iOS 17.2): warning: data race detected: @MainActor function at TestWidgetExtension/TestWidget.swift:240 was not called on the main thread struct TestWidget: Widget { let kind: String = "TestWidget" var body: some WidgetConfiguration { AppIntentConfiguration( kind: kind, intent: ConfigurationAppIntent.self, provider: Provider() ) { entry in // LINE 240 TestWidgetEntryView(entry: entry) .containerBackground(Color.white, for: .widget) } } } Is there any way to solve this on my side? Thank you!

This is probably a basic question but I wanted to ask your advice for the best way to take consenting users' Watch data from Apple Health Kit and send it to our central server? One idea we had was to create an iOS app that gets the data from Apple's Health SDK on the phone and sends it to our server. Would appreciate any help here, thank you.

Hi everyone! I’m integrating push notifications for a taxi-driver app and ran into a blocking CarPlay issue. When the iPhone is connected to CarPlay (wired or wireless), the push arrives on the phone without any sound and nothing is shown or announced on the CarPlay screen. If I unplug CarPlay, the same push plays the default sound and shows a normal banner on the lock screen, so the payload itself looks valid.

I implemented a Network Extension in the macOS, use NETransparentProxyProvider. After installing and enabling it, I implemented a UDP client to test its. I found that the UDP client failed to send the data successfully (via sendto, and it returned a success), and when using Wireshark to capture the network data packet, I still couldn't see this UDP data packet. The code for Network Extension is like this: @interface MyTransparentProxyProvider : NETransparentProxyProvider @end @implementation MyTransparentProxyProvider - (void)startProxyWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)options completionHandler:(void (^)(NSError *))completionHandler { NETransparentProxyNetworkSettings *objSettings = [[NETransparentProxyNetworkSettings alloc] initWithTunnelRemoteAddress:@"127.0.0.1"]; // included rules NENetworkRule *objIncludedNetworkRule = [[NENetworkRule alloc] initWithRemoteNetwork:nil remotePrefix:0 localNetwork:nil localPrefix:0 protocol:NENetworkRuleProtocolAny direction:NETrafficDirectionOutbound]; NSMutableArray<NENetworkRule *> *arrIncludedNetworkRules = [NSMutableArray array]; [arrIncludedNetworkRules addObject:objIncludedNetworkRule]; objSettings.includedNetworkRules = arrIncludedNetworkRules; // apply [self setTunnelNetworkSettings:objSettings completionHandler: ^(NSError * _Nullable error) { // TODO } ]; if (completionHandler != nil) completionHandler(nil); } - (BOOL)handleNewFlow:(NEAppProxyFlow *)flow { if (flow == nil) return NO; char szProcPath[PROC_PIDPATHINFO_MAXSIZE] = {0}; audit_token_t *lpAuditToken = (audit_token_t*)flow.metaData.sourceAppAuditToken.bytes; if (lpAuditToken != NULL) { proc_pidpath_audittoken(lpAuditToken, szProcPath, sizeof(szProcPath)); } if ([flow isKindOfClass:[NEAppProxyTCPFlow class]]) { NWHostEndpoint *objRemoteEndpoint = (NWHostEndpoint *)((NEAppProxyTCPFlow *)flow).remoteEndpoint; LOG("-MyTransparentProxyProvider handleNewFlow:] TCP flow!

Did I do anything wrong?

Hi all, im trying to implement a per-app vpn in my network extension (packet tunnel with custom protocol), where only the traffic generated by my application should be routed trought my network extension. It is possible to accomplish that on a non managed or supervised device? Setting the routingMethod as .sourceApplication in NEPacketTunnelProvider is not possible as it is read-only, can it work trying overriding the var as a computed property? The documentation lack of examples. Thanks in advance! Love

Hello Everyone, I am currently using macOS 15.5 and XCode 16.4. I am using the following code to send/receive multicast packets on multicast group ff02::1 and port 49153 using Apple NF's NWConnectionGroup. import Network import Foundation // Creating a mutlicast group endpoint let multicastIPv6GroupEndpoint: NWEndpoint = NWEndpoint.hostPort(host: NWEndpoint.Host.ipv6(IPv6Address("ff02::1")!), port: NWEndpoint.Port("49153")!) do { let multicastGroupDescriptor: NWMulticastGroup = try NWMulticastGroup (for: [multicastIPv6GroupEndpoint]) let multicastConnectionGroupDescriptor = NWConnectionGroup (with: multicastGroupDescriptor, using: .udp) multicastConnectionGroupDescriptor.stateUpdateHandler = { state in print ("🕰️ Connection Group state: \(state)") if state == .ready { multicastConnectionGroupDescriptor.send (content: "👋🏻 Hello from the Mac 💻".data (using: .utf8)) { err in print ("➡️ Now, I am trying to send some messages.") if let err = err { print ("💥 Error sending multicast message: \(err)") } else { print ("🌚 Initial multicast message sent") } } } } multicastConnectionGroupDescriptor.setReceiveHandler { message, content, isComplete in if let content = content, let messageString = String (data: content, encoding: .utf8) { print ("⬅️ Received message: \(messageString)") } } multicastConnectionGroupDescriptor.start (queue: .global()) } catch { print ("💥 Error while creating Multicast Group: \(error)") } RunLoop.main.run() I am able to successfully create a NWConnectionGroup without any warnings/errors. The issue occurs when the stateUpdateHandler's callback gets invoked. It first gives me this warning: nw_listener_socket_inbox_create_socket IPV6_LEAVE_GROUP ff02::1.49153 failed [49: Can't assign requested address But then it shows me that the state is ready: 🕰️ Connection Group state: ready After this, when the send is performed, it gives me a bunch of errros: nw_endpoint_flow_failed_with_error [C1 ff02::1.49153 waiting parent-flow (unsatisfied (Local network prohibited), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, ipv6, uses wifi)] already failing, returning nw_socket_connect [C1:1] connectx(7, [srcif=0, srcaddr=::.62838, dstaddr=ff02::1.49153], SAE_ASSOCID_ANY, 0, NULL, 0, NULL, SAE_CONNID_ANY) failed: [48: Address already in use] nw_socket_connect [C1:1] connectx failed (fd 7) [48: Address already in use] nw_socket_connect connectx failed [48: Address already in use] nw_endpoint_flow_failed_with_error [C1 ff02::1.49153 in_progress socket-flow (satisfied (Path is satisfied), interface: en0[802.11], ipv4, ipv6, dns, uses wifi)] already failing, returning There is no other background process running on the same port. I tried using different ports as well as multicast groups but the same error persists. The same code works fine for an IPv4 multicast group. I have following questions: Why am I getting these errors specifically for IPv6 multicast group but not for IPv4 multicast group? Are there any configurations that needed to be done in order to get this working?

Hi Team, With Mac OS26, the "Login Items and Extension" is presented under two tabs " apps " and "Extensions" , when trying to enable the item from apps tab the toggle button is not toggling( looks like this is just a status only button (read only not edit). Any one else seeing this issue for their Network system extension app.

Hi i had problem after upgrade to ios 26. I try connected to my xiaomi earbud bluetooh, all functioning well (watch movie, listen song) except when on call, the bluetooth cannot function at all.

Dear my friends, I have set up two subscriptions (monthly and annual) in App Store Connect. By configuring with StoreKit, I can import the configurations from App Store Connect into the local .storekit file, and the program can run normally. However, when the StoreKit configuration is set to NONE, I am unable to retrieve product information from App Store Connect. The code for fetching the product list is as follows. Could you please provide suggestions on how to proceed? Thank you very much! private let productIds: [String] = ["subscription.year", "subscription.monthly"] subscriptions = try await Product.products(for: productIds)

Hello developers, We're facing a critical issue with our app and need your insights: Since today, 3 specific IAP products return empty data when calling Product.products(for: [productId]). This affects all users, preventing any successful purchases of these items. Other IAP products seem unaffected. let products = try await Product.products(for: [productId]) Key details: Production environment Issue started: 2025.6.17 No recent app updates All products show as "Approved" in App Store Connect Questions: Has anyone experienced similar issues recently? Could this be a StoreKit or App Store system problem? Any suggestions for diagnosing or resolving this, besides contacting Apple Support? Recommendations for temporary workarounds? This is severely impacting our business. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I see this in Tahoe Beta release notes macOS now supports the Apple Sparse Image Format (ASIF). These space-efficient images can be created with the diskutil image command-line tool or the Disk Utility application and are suitable for various uses, including as a backing store for virtual machines storage via the Virtualization framework. See VZDiskImageStorageDeviceAttachment. (152040832) I'm developing a macOS app using the Virtualization framework and need to create disk images in the ASIF (Apple Sparse Image Format) to make use of the new feature in Tahoe Is there an official way to create/resize ASIF images programmatically using Swift? I couldn’t find any public API that supports this directly. Any guidance or recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

For testing purposes, I log out of media and purchases to use sandbox ID's to test in app purchases. Once I log out of media and purchases in device settings, in app purchases is still using my real apple ID, I'm not being prompted anymore to log into a sandbox ID for purchases.

I have an app that uses CKShare to allow users to share CloudKit data with other users. With the first build of the iOS 26, I'm seeing a few issues: I'm not able to add myself as a participant anymore when I have the link to a document. Some participants names no longer show up in the app. Looking at the release notes for iOS & iPadOS 26 Beta, there is a CloudKit section with two bullets: CloudKit sharing URLs do not launch third-party apps. (151778655) The request access APIs, such as CKShareRequestAccessOperation, are available in the SDK but are currently nonfunctional. (151878020) It sounds like the first issue is addressed by the first bullet, although the error message makes me wonder if I need to make changes to my iCloud account permissions or something in order to open it. It works fine in iOS 18.5. This is the error I get when I try to open a link to a shared document (I blocked out my email address, which is what was in quotes): As far as the second issue, I am really confused about what is going on. Some names still show up, while others do not. I can't find a pattern, and the missing users are not on the iOS 26 beta. The release notes mention CKShareRequestAccessOperation being nonfunctional, which is new in the beta and has some minor documentation, but I can't find information about how it's supposed to be used yet. In previous years there have been WWDC sessions about what's new in CloudKit, but I haven't found anything that talks about these changes to document sharing. Is there a guide or session somewhere that I'm missing? Does anyone know what's going on with these changes to CloudKit?

Hello, I am working on a application that connects to a peripheral using AccessorySetupKit. Peripheral is currently advertising it's custom service UUID. With this setup I am able to discover and connect to the device without issues. Firmware team wants to introduce a change and add a "manufacturer data" to the advertisment for better recognition. Upon testing with iOS app, it turns out that current code breaks and does not discover the device anymore. I am unable to configure AccessorySetupKit to be able to discover the device when it has both service uuid and manufacturer data in advertisment. Removing the newly added manufacturer data "fixes" the issue and app is able to discover peripherals again. Looking at the documentation of ASDiscoveryDescriptor it does not specify that those are mutually excluding fields nor does it provide any insight how the configured fields are evaluated against each other. Is this a bug in AccessorySetupKit? Is there a way to update the descriptor in a way that application will still be able to discover the peripheral if only service UUID is provided? Thanks in advance

We have an iPad application that utilizes Multipeer Connectivity to enable local communication between devices running a copy of our app. Until recently, we were able to test this functionality in the Xcode simulator without any issues. We could easily set up multiple simulators and have them all communicate with each other. However, recently, either due to an upgrade to Xcode or MacOS, this functionality ceased working in the simulator. Surprisingly, it still functions perfectly on physical devices. If we reboot the development computer and launch the simulator immediately after the reboot (without building and sending from Xcode, but running the existing code on the device), the issue resolves. However, the moment we generate a new build and send it to the simulator from Xcode, the multipeer functionality stops working again in the simulator. The simulators won’t reconnect until a reboot of the physical Mac hardware hosting the simulator. We’ve tried the usual troubleshooting steps, such as downgrading Xcode, deleting simulators and recreating them, cleaning the build folder, and deleting derived data, but unfortunately, none of these solutions have worked. The next step is to attempt to use a previous version of MacOS (15.3) and see if that helps, but I’d prefer to avoid this if possible. Does anyone have any obvious suggestions or troubleshooting steps that might help us identify the cause of this issue?

I was wondering which is the preferred way to send a lot of data from sensors of the apple watch to server. It is preferred to send small chucks to iphone and then to server or directly send bulk data to server from watch. How does it affect battery and resources from watch ? Are there any triggers that I can use to ensure best data stream. I need to send at least once a day. Can I do it in background or do I need the user to have my app in the foreground ? Thank you in advance
