Team-scoped keys introduce the ability to restrict your token authentication keys to either development or production environments. Topic-specific keys in addition to environment isolation allow you to associate each key with a specific Bundle ID streamlining key management. For detailed instructions on accessing these features, read our updated documentation on establishing a token-based connection to APNs.

I'm trying to implement support for grpc http/2 streams using NSURLSession. Almost everything works fine, data streaming is flowing from the server and from the client and responses are coming through my NSURLSessionTaskDelegate. I'm getting the responses and streamed data through the appropriate handlers (didReceiveData, didReceiveResponse). However, I cannot seem to find an API to access the trailers expected by grpc. Specifically, the expected trailer "grpc-status: 0" is in the response, but after the data. Is there no way to gain access to trailers in the NSURLSession Framework?

Ok so for some background, our app has a keyboard extension where we run a dictation service. Due to iOS limitations, this requires the user to press a button on the keyboard which will then bring the user to our app to activate an audio session. Once the audio session has been activated, it takes the user back to the original app it came from to continue using the keyboard + dictation service. The problem we're running into involves iOS 26.0 and the iMessages app. Whenever our app tries to switch back to the iMessages app using Deep Link (specifically the messages:// URL), the iMessages app opens up a new message compose sheet. This compose sheet replaces the view or message thread that the user was previously looking at which we don't want. This behavior appears to be only happening in iOS 26 and not in any of the previous iOS versions (tested up to iOS 18.6). We know that it should be possible to bring the user back to the messages app without opening up this new compose sheet, because similar apps do the same thing and these apps have been verified to work on iOS 26. We've tried also using the sms:// URL but that always opens a new message compose sheet regardless of whether or not it's iOS 26.0.

Is it allowed to use an os_activity_t instance created with os_activity_create from multiple threads? In particular, would it be allowed to use os_activity_apply/os_activity_scope concurrently from multiple threads to associate separate chunks of work with the same activity? My use case is an activity where I'm using Task.detached to create a detached unstructured Task, which (as can be expected) prevents inheritance of the current activity. The bulk of the activity happens in the detached Task so I can just create the activity there but ideally I would like to also associate some of the setup work before spawning the Task with the same activity. So I'm wondering if it is safe to create the activity, apply it to the setup including spawning the detached Task and then capture and apply the same activity inside the Task as well where it might be applied concurrently with the first use on the thread spawning the Task.

I have an app that connect to specific wifi but the macos always save password while i do not want user to remember the password. Anyway to stop or work around on it?

Hi, My app uses the NetworkExtension framework to connect to an access point. For some reason, my app occasionally fails to find and/or connect to my AP (which I know is online and beaconing on a given frequency). This roughly happens 1/10 times. I am using an iPhone 17, running iOS 26.0.1. I am connecting to a WPA2-Personal network. In the iPhone system logs, I see the following: Oct 10 10:34:10 wifid(WiFiPolicy)[54] <Notice>: Dequeuing command type: "Scan" pending commands: 0 Oct 10 10:34:10 wifid(WiFiPolicy)[54] <Notice>: __WiFiDeviceCopyPreparedScanResults: network records count: 0 Oct 10 10:34:10 kernel()[0] <Notice>: wlan0:com.apple.p2p: WiFi infra associated, NAN DISABLED, , DFS state Off, IR INACTIVE, llwLink ACTIVE, RTM-DP 0, allowing scans Oct 10 10:34:10 kernel()[0] <Notice>: wlan0:com.apple.p2p: isScanDisallowedByAwdl[1148] : InfraScanAllowed 1 (RTModeScan 0 NonSteering 0 assistDisc 0 HTMode 0 RTModeNeeded 0 Immin 0 ScanType 1 Flags 0 ScanOn2GOnly 0 DevAllows2G 1) Oct 10 10:34:10 kernel()[0] <Notice>: wlan0:com.apple.p2p: IO80211PeerManager::setScanningState:5756:_scanningState:0x2(oldState 0) on:1, source:ScanManagerFamily, err:0 Oct 10 10:34:10 kernel()[0] <Notice>: wlan0:com.apple.p2p: setScanningState:: Scan request from ScanManagerFamily.

I've been testing the offer code feature for my non consumable in app purchase using a sandbox account, with sandbox offer codes and in the sandbox environment. However, the codes don't appear to work despite everything being in the sandbox. Any idea what I'm missing?

We have a content filter system extension as part of our macOS app. The filter normally works correctly, activation and deactivation works as expected but occasionally we see an issue when the content filter is activated. When this issues occurs, the filter activation appears to behave correctly, no errors are reported. Using "systemextensionsctl list" we see the filter is labelled as "[activated enabled]". However, the installed content filter executable does not run. We have seen this issue on macOS 15.3 and later and on the beta macOS 26.1 RC. It happens only occasionally but when it does there is no indication as to why the executable is not running. There are no crash logs or errors in launchd logs. Both rebooting and deactivating/activating the filter do not resolve the issue. The only fix appears to be completely uninstalling the app (including content filter) and reinstalling. I have raised a FB ticket, FB20866080. Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?

On my iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max devices, running iOS 26.0, 26.0.1, and 26.1, Wi-Fi raw socket communication works flawlessly. Even after keeping the connection active for over 40 minutes, there are no disconnections during data transmission. However, on the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro, the raw socket connection drops within 20 seconds. Once it disconnects, the socket cannot reconnect unless the Wi-Fi module itself is reset. I believe this issue is caused by a bug in the iPhone 17 series’ communication module. I have looked into many cases, and it appears to be related to a bug in the N1 chipset. Are there any possible solutions or workarounds for this issue?

According to Apple's development documentation, if I want to install an Endpoint Security system extension, I need to develop a host app that must be installed in the Applications directory. Now, I want to create an ES extension to protect users from accessing certain folders. However, I don't want a custom app to pop up asking the user to allow the installation of the ES extension. (To clarify, it's fine if the system authorization request dialog pops up, but I don't want the host app's UI to appear.) Is there any way to do this?

On macOS 15.7.1 I'm trying to install an XPC service outside the app (Developer ID). It mostly seems to go ok, but when I set Launch Constraints on Responsible, AMFI complains of a violation, saying the service is responsible for itself, and fails to launch. Removing that constraint (or adding the service itself to the constraint) works fine. The service is an optional download, and installed to /Users/Shared with a LaunchAgent specifying the MachService. The service is correctly launched and seems to pass all codesigning, notarization, and other checks, but the Responsible isn't set to the "calling" app. Is this broken, or working as intended?

Xcode SPM (Swift Package Manager) Error I added the "Apple App Store Server Swift Library" library to Xcode using Swift Package Manager. Both the project and target are set to iOS 14 or higher. However, when I build after adding the library, an error occurs with the library. A message appears stating that the target is set to iOS 12. I'm using Xcode 26.0.1. Even after adding it to all my projects, the build continues with the same error. I've tried building the library from version 1.0.0 to the latest version, but the same error persists. Even after completely cleaning the project and running it, the same error persists. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I have downloaded the IOS 17 beta package from the Apple Developer download site. I am having issues installing it on an iPhone 13 mini. The iPhone is in Developer mode but it still errors out when restoring the image. What is the procedure to accomplish this downgrade?

My application (using a nested framework for networking) was working correctly on iPadOS 18, but failed to perform a UDP broadcast operation after upgrading the device to iPadOS 26. The low-level console logs consistently show a "Permission denied" error. Symptoms & Error Message: When attempting to send a UDP broadcast packet using NWConnection (or a similar low-level socket call within the framework), the connection fails immediately with the following error logged in the console: nw_socket_service_writes_block_invoke [C2:1] sendmsg(fd 6, 124 bytes) [13: Permission denied] (Error code 13 corresponds to EACCES). Verification Steps (What I have checked): Multicast Networking Entitlement is Approved and Applied: The necessary entitlement (com.apple.developer.networking.multicast) was granted by Apple. The Provisioning Profile used for signing the Host App Target has been regenerated and explicitly includes "Multicast Networking" capability (see attached screenshot). I confirmed that Entitlements cannot be added directly to the Framework Target, only the Host App Target, which is the expected behavior. Local Network Privacy is Configured: The Host App's Info.plist contains the NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription key with a clear usage string. Crucially, the Local Network Access alert does not reliably appear when the Broadcast function is first called (despite a full reinstall after OS upgrade). Even when Local Network Access is manually enabled in Settings, the Broadcast still fails with EACCES. Code Implementation: The Broadcast is attempted using NWConnection to the host 255.255.255.255 on a specific port. Request: Since all required entitlements and profiles are correct, and the failure is a low-level EACCES on a newly updated OS version, I suspect this may be a regression bug in the iPadOS 26 security sandbox when validating the Multicast Networking Entitlement against a low-level socket call (like sendmsg). Has anyone else encountered this specific Permission denied error on iPadOS 26 with a valid Multicast Entitlement, and is there a known workaround aside from switching to mDNS/Bonjour?

Hi, I’ve built an app that includes a Contacts Provider Extension (CPE). On iOS 18, I observed the expected behavior — when the main app is uninstalled, the corresponding CPE entry is also removed from the Contacts list. However, on iOS 26, this no longer happens. After uninstalling the app, the CPE remains visible and active in the Contacts list, even though the app is gone.

We implemented AppIntents using EnumerableEntityQuery and @Dependency and we are receiving these crash reports: AppIntents/AppDependencyManager.swift:120: Fatal error: AppDependency of type MyDependency.Type was not initialized prior to access. Dependency values can only be accessed inside of the intent perform flow and within types conforming to _SupportsAppDependencies unless the value of the dependency is manually set prior to access. I can't post the stack because of the Developer Forums sensitive language filter :( but basically it's just a call to suggestedEntities of MyEntityQuery that calls the dependency getter and then it crashes. My understanding was that when using @Dependency, the execution of the intent, or query of suggestedEntities in this case, would be delayed by the AppIntents framework until the dependency was added to the AppDependencyManager by me. At least that's what's happening in my tests. But in prod I'm having these crashes which I haven't been able to reproduce in dev yet. Does anyone know if this is a bug or how can this be fixed? As a workaround, I can avoid using @Dependency and AppDependencyManager completely and make sure that all operations are async and delay the execution myself until the dependency is set. But I'd like to know if there's a better solution. Thanks!

Since iOS 26, the Apple Maps share sheet no longer provides a com.apple.mapkit.map-item attachment when sharing a location to my Share Extension. Additionally, on real devices the shared URL is now a short link (https://maps.apple/p/...), which does not contain coordinates. On the simulator, the URL still includes coordinates (as in previous iOS versions). I'm trying to find the official or recommended way to extract coordinates from these new short URLs. Environment: Devices: iPhone (real device) on iOS 26.0 / 26.0.1 Simulator: iOS 26.0 / 26.0.1 simulator (behaves like iOS 18 — see below) App: Share Extension invoked from Apple Maps -> Share -> my app Xcode: 26.0.1 Steps to Reproduce Open Apple Maps on iOS 26 (real device). Pick a POI (store/restaurant). Share -> choose my share extension. iOS 18 and earlier (lldb) po extensionContext?.inputItems ▿ Optional<Array<Any>> ▿ some : 1 element - 0 : <NSExtensionItem: 0x60000000c5d0> - userInfo: { NSExtensionItemAttachmentsKey = ( "<NSItemProvider: 0x600002930d20> {types = (\"public.plain-text\")}", "<NSItemProvider: 0x600002930c40> {types = (\"com.apple.mapkit.map-item\")}", "<NSItemProvider: 0x600002930bd0> {types = (\"public.url\")}" ); } Typical URL: https://maps.apple.com/place?address=Apple%20Inc.,%201%20Apple%20Park%20Way,%20Cupertino,%20CA%2095014,%20United%20States&coordinate=37.334859,-122.009040&name=Apple%20Park&place-id=I7C250D2CDCB364A&map=explore iOS 26 (lldb) po extensionContext?.inputItems ▿ 1 element - 0 : <NSExtensionItem: 0x6000000058d0> - userInfo: { NSExtensionItemAttachmentsKey = ( "<NSItemProvider: 0x600002900b60> {types = (\"public.url\")}", "<NSItemProvider: 0x600002900fc0> {types = (\"public.plain-text\")}" ); } URL looks like: https://maps.apple/p/U8rE9v8n8iVZjr On simulator iOS 26 same missing map-item provider - but the URL is still long and contains coordinates, like this: https://maps.apple.com/place?coordinate=37.334859,-122.009040&name=Apple%20Park&.. Issue The short URLs (maps.apple/p/...) cannot be resolved directly - following redirects ends with: https://maps.apple.com/unsupported The only way I've found to get coordinates is to intercept intermediate redirects - one of them contains the expanded URL with coordinate=.... Example of my current workaround: final class RedirectSniffer: NSObject, URLSessionTaskDelegate { private(set) var redirects: [URL] = [] func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, willPerformHTTPRedirection response: HTTPURLResponse, newRequest request: URLRequest) async -> URLRequest? { if let url = request.url { redirects.append(url) } return request } } Then I look through redirects to find a URL containing "coordinate=". This works, but feels unreliable and undocumented. Questions Was the removal of com.apple.mapkit.map-item from the Maps share payload intentional in iOS 26? If yes, is there a new attachment type or API to obtain an MKMapItem? What’s the official or supported way to resolve https://maps.apple/p/... to coordinates? Is there any MapKit API or documented URL scheme for this? Is intercepting redirect chains the only option for now? Why does the iOS 26 simulator still return coordinate URLs, while real devices don't?

I’m restructuring my business and want to remove Apple Pay. I use Woocommerce Square for payments. Do I do it in the Square dashboard or here? I honestly can’t remember how I set it up. I’m not a developer. I’m a farmer and work on my own website. Thanks!

I am adding In-App provisioning to my app. I am able to access the Apple Pay Sandbox and I have successfully tested adding a secure element/payment pass to Apple Wallet. However, once the pass has been added to the wallet, I can not access or retrieve the pass from my app. I have confirmed with the PNO that the PNO Pass Metadata Configuration in the testing environment include the correct metadata for "associatedApplicationIdentifiers" and "associatedStoreIdentifiers". Does anyone know why I am having this issue and how I can resolve it? Steps used to access pass in Apple Wallet I am unable to view the pass when I attempt to access it using the PKPassLibrary function as follows: let library = PKPassLibrary() if #available(iOS 13.4, *) { // This returns an empty array library.passes(of: .secureElement) } else { // This also returns an empty array library.passes(of: .payment) } // This returns an empty array too library.passes() Steps used to add pass to Apple Wallet These are the steps I follow to add the card: I create a PKAddPaymentPassRequestConfiguration I use this config to instantiate a PKAddPaymentPassViewController. I provide the nonce, nonceSignature, and certificates to my PNO along with the card data. I receive the activationData, encryptedPassData, and ephemeralPublicKey from my PNO and create a PKAddPaymentPassRequest using this data. I add the pass to Apple Wallet. In the addPaymentPassViewController callback, I am able to view the pass data from the .didFinishAdding pass: PKPaymentPass? variable. I am also able to see that the pass has been added from Apple Wallet app. I am not able to access the pass using PKPassLibrary().passes() at this point. I am not able to access the pass at any point after adding it either.
