Attachment 12 of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement has been revised to specify terms for iOS apps in Brazil, including alternative distribution, alternative payments and out-of-app offers, and the Core Technology Commission.

Please review the changes and sign in to your account to accept the updated terms.

Translations of the updated agreement will be available on the Apple Developer website within one month.

As part of a recent agreement with Brazil’s competition regulator CADE (Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica), Apple is introducing changes to iOS that create new options for developers' apps in Brazil.

Beginning with iOS 26.5, developers can distribute apps on alternative app marketplaces, operate alternative app marketplaces, process app payments for digital goods and services outside of Apple In-App Purchase in iOS, and more.

The new options for downloading apps from alternative app marketplaces and making app payments open new avenues for malware, fraud, scams, and privacy and security risks.

Those protections include Notarization for iOS apps, an authorization process for app ma…

Later this summer, Apple will unify the email domains used by Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email under a single, shared domain: private.icloud.com.

For example:Sign in with Apple addresses, previously issued on privaterelay.appleid.com , will be issued on private.icloud.com .

iCloud+ Hide My Email addresses, previously issued on icloud.com , will be issued on private.icloud.com .

Email service providers should update any domain-based filtering, suppression lists, or routing rules that explicitly enumerate relay domains so that the new private.icloud.com domain is included.

The Apple Developer Program License Agreement and App Review Guidelines have been revised to support new features, updated policies, and to provide clarification.

Please review the changes below and sign in to your account to accept the updated terms.

Apple Developer Program License AgreementSections 3.1, 14.8: Specified requirements for providing information and responding to questions about developer identity, including in the context of export compliance.

Definitions, Section 3.3.3(Q): Specified requirements for use of the Suggested Actions API.

Section 3.2(h): Updated terms for use of and access to Apple models.

Due to a recent court ruling lifting an injunction on Texas law SB 2420, new Apple Accounts in Texas are now subject to the law, which introduced age assurance requirements for app marketplaces and developers.

Parents or guardians will also be able to revoke their consent for any app they previously approved for their child.

Developers can request age category data for these Apple Accounts through the Declared Age Range API.

For significant changes, developers should use the Significant Change API under the PermissionKit framework.

The Swift Ecosystem Steering Group is excited to announce the creation of the Networking workgroup!

The primary goal is to guide the evolution of networking libraries, protocols, and APIs in the Swift ecosystem, making networking in Swift excellent everywhere: high-level and safe by default, modular and interoperable, cross-platform, and observable.

The new Networking workgroup joins a growing list of Swift workgroups, including the Android workgroup, Windows workgroup, and Build and Packaging workgroup, which were all added in the past year.

To start, we’re focusing on some of the many local meetup groups sharing Swift content:Around the world, local meetup groups and conferences bring Swift developers together, and some even predate Swift itself!

In May the SF Swift meetup hosted a talk by Dan Federman, Agentify Your Swift Repo, which covers building an agent for CI and review feedback.

I encourage more folks to get involved in their local Swift meetup.

However, shipping in an external package means the standard library, Swift runtime, and toolchain libraries such as Foundation cannot depend on it.

You can now write Swift in a broader range of popular IDEs, including Cursor, VSCodium, AWS’s Kiro, and Google’s Antigravity.

By leveraging VS Code extension compatibility, these editors tap directly into the Open VSX Registry, where the official Swift extension is now live.

This milestone brings Swift support, including code completion, refactoring, full debugging support, a test explorer, as well as DocC support, to a broader ecosystem of compatible editors and allows agentic IDEs like Cursor and Antigravity to automatically install Swift, with no manual download required.

Welcome to “What’s new in Swift,” a curated digest of releases, videos, and discussions in the Swift project and community.

Last year we shared our goal to bring Swift Build to Swift Package Manager, in an effort to deduplicate build technologies within the Swift ecosystem and deliver a consistent build experience across all platforms that Swift supports.

Most recently, the main branch of Swift started using Swift Build as its default build system, paving the way for Swift Build to be the out-of-the-box option for Swift developers in a future Swift release.

For a full list of language evolution proposals in Swift 6.3, see the Swift Evolution dashboard.

The list of Swift Testing evolution proposals included in Swift 6.3 are ST-0012, ST-0013, ST-0014, ST-0015, ST-0016, ST-0017, and ST-0020.

For a detailed look at what’s new in embedded Swift, see Embedded Swift Improvements coming in Swift 6.3.

With this SDK, you can start developing native Android programs in Swift, update your Swift packages to support building for Android, and use Swift Java and Swift Java JNI Core to integrate Swift code into existing Android applications written in Kotlin/Java.

You can find instructions for installing a Swift 6.3 toolchain on the Install Swift page.

TelemetryDeck is an app analytics service specifically for developers, designed to manage usage analytics that are anonymized, privacy-focused, and really easy to use.

Adopting Swift for backend servicesTelemetryDeck is built on Vapor, a web framework written in Swift, for building scalable APIs and services.

Under the hood, a Swift Vapor project is just a Swift Package with some dependencies.

Your Swift Vapor service is almost never the bottleneck.

Although profiling Swift code is easy, most slowdowns in a web service will arise from a combination of database, storage, and traffic load.

Welcome to this edition of “What’s New in Swift,” where we share interesting projects and updates in the Swift community that deserve visibility to a broader audience.

For this edition of “What’s new in Swift,” we invited a developer to share their experience:Hi, I’m Nick Sloan.

We chose Swift for Studioworks because of how easy it is to write safe and reliable code with great performance.

Our Swift project makes use of Hummingbird 2, Soto (for its incredible DynamoDB Codable support), Hummingbird MacroRouting, and Elementary.

We’ve been deploying web applications with PHP and Python for decades, and getting started with a Swift web project was certainly a bit slower.

Swift on the web has been a resounding success for us, and I hope we’ll see this part of the community continue to grow!

We are excited to announce the creation of the Windows workgroup!

The new Windows workgroup joins a growing list of Swift workgroups, including the Android workgroup, Build and Packaging workgroup, and Testing workgroup which were all added in the past year.

The workgroup will build upon these efforts and focus on work to:Improve and maintain Windows support for the official Swift distribution.

Identify and recommend best practices for bridging between Swift and the Windows API, and for shipping Swift libraries with Windows applications.

While one could go and rewrite these libraries in Swift, usually there is no need, because Swift provides direct interoperability with C. With a little setup, you can directly use existing C libraries from your Swift code.

In this post, I’m going to use these annotations to improve how Swift interacts with the WebGPU C code.

You can create a module map for the WebGPU header by writing the following to a file module.modulemap :module WebGPU { header "webgpu.h" export * }The easiest thing to do is to put module.modulemap alongside the header itself.

The resulting API notes are in WebGPU.apinotes, and the generated Swift interface after these API notes are applied is here.

Just got my app CopyAgain approved after a rough review cycle, and the lessons might help someone else. Rejection 1 — Guideline 2.1 (info needed): reviewer couldn't evaluate it. Fix was filling the App Review Notes properly (purpose, tested devices, how to access features, services used) and a screen recording. Straightforward. Rejection 2 — Guideline 4.2 (minimum functionality): this one stung. Reviewer opened the app on iPad and saw an empty library, concluded it "doesn't do enough." The app actually has a keyboard extension, share extension, widgets, Shortcuts — but none of that was visible on an empty first launch. What fixed it: (1) seeding clearly-labelled sample snippets on first lau…

If you have used AIProxy in your app what has your experience been? I am considering using it but a bit unsure how to handle credits/API costs. I know you can set per-user rate limits, but ideally I'd have some kind of credit system the user can see (eg. "You have used 25/100 credits this month") that is also stable across app deletes and usage across multiple devices. I'd really like to avoid having to build a backend (hence turning to AIProxy) or to have user accounts (anonymous user accounts would be ok). submitted by /u/roguekiwi [link] [comments]

I wanted to share this in case it helps someone. We make an offline-first iOS app (the phone is the source of truth, cloud sync is optional). A user turned on cloud sync and a load of their items and locations just disappeared. Turned out a sync bug removed local stuff that hadn't been uploaded yet. Basically the sync assumed the data was gone when really it had just never synced. Bad bug, and pretty scary for the user. The thing that saved us is that we never actually delete anything. A delet just sets a flag and hides the row, the data stays in the local database. So even though it all vanished from the screen, it was still sitting there. So we added a "Recently Deleted" screen that resto…

Currently, I’m developing a project counter for various reasons other than it being a passion project of mine. Currently I have an MVP but in its current state, it’s very similar to others on the Store. I am putting other features into it but I want to get something out there to get some sort of user base. As the title suggests, would it be better to wait until I have more features added because it’d be rejected (the spam rule) or not? submitted by /u/LeTechician [link] [comments]

After a while working on it during my free time, finally been able to more or less be happy with a v1, it's submitted now and waiting for validation... Afraid it's gonna be rejected for whatever I could have overlooked, but at least it's a new step, as scary as exciting, if you have tips for marketing/promotion or in general I'll be happy to read them, in the meantime wish me luck ! submitted by /u/MusicOfTheApes [link] [comments]

Hello everyone, I am on my way to publish my second app which is on MacOS. I do not want to say too much about it but it is an app that manipulates texts which are saved via SwiftData. I have also enabled CloudKit so my users will have their data synced across their devices. Each user has a history of all his texts, each text has its own ID. Each user can delete either a given text or all of his texts via the app. Each user may also ask me do either of these by sending me an email: they can send me their userID that they would retrieve from my app (I am using the `CKContainer(identifier:_).fetchUserRecordID()`method to do so). I will be then able to delete either all their stored texts or s…

I have been trying to replicate this keyboard bar from apple notes and apple reminders. While I think it’s possible with SwiftUI, I would like my text field to function similar to apple notes in that when creating a bullet list, hitting return creates a new bullet point.

Issue 750 8th May 2026 Written by Dave VerwerThis is the seven hundred and fiftieth issue of this little newsletter, so I hope you’ll forgive a little introspection.

I’d recently left a job working with C# and ASP.NET to start a small business writing Ruby on Rails apps on the brand new Intel Mac I’d just bought.

I really loved what I found, and not just in the language or frameworks, but in the community.

When I started this newsletter in 2011 it was partly because I wanted to become even more involved in that community.

Issue 749 1st May 2026 Written by Dave VerwerI first wrote about Ale Mohamad’s idea of a marketplace for Swift playgrounds in early 2025, when Swift Playgrounds removed its subscriptions functionality.

At that time, he had created a playgrounds section on his site, allowing a selection of playgrounds to be downloaded.

He has built a proper community-driven index site for Swift playgrounds.

It’s based on the same JSON feed that Apple designed, meaning if you had playgrounds content prepared for the Playgrounds app, it’ll seamlessly import into his site.

We’re even being affected a little at the Swift Package Index, although not to the point of it being a huge issue, and not in the main repository.

It’s not a huge problem, but it’s more work, and shows how far this issue stretches.

Having a policy in place is a great place to start, and I’m glad to see Hummingbird tackle the subject.

This issue isn’t going to go away, and having a written policy helps prevent arguments.

Apple and Epic Games have agreed to ask the court to temporarily postpone key deadlines in their long-running App Store dispute while Apple seeks to pause the proceedings until the Supreme Court rules on its appeal.

The Supreme Court agreed to consider the contempt question, but declined to review the broader scope of the injunction.

Apple previously asked the Supreme Court to stay the appeals court’s mandate pending review, which would have prevented the lower court’s remand proceedings from proceeding.

That left the Supreme Court case and the district court’s remand proceedings on track to move forward simultaneously.

Apple is once again being required to preinstall Russian apps on devices sold in the country, or face a fine of up to $52 million.

Initially, Apple hadn’t been affected, as it had halted official product sales in Russia in March 2022, due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

But now, Russia is threatening to slap Apple with a multimillion-dollar fine unless it complies with the requirement, though Reuters’ report does not specify how the company would be expected to implement it.

The move comes just days after Russia demanded an explanation from Apple for removing several apps developed by state-controlled tech company VK from the U.S. App Store.

The report notes that Samsung Display’s shipments rose 37% year over year during the quarter, increasing its market share by seven percentage points.

If Apple and Samsung successfully ramp new products and deliver on user experience, foldables will re-enter a growth cycle.

Apple reportedly wants to buy Chinese RAM for its products from not one but two different firms.

On Friday, The Financial Times reported that Apple wants to buy RAM from Chinese companies, including CXMT.

Bloomberg corroborates The FT report today, adding that Apple is lobbying Washington and “in negotations” with two different Chinese companies.

The iPhone maker is seeking to buy memory components from ChangXin Memory Technologies Inc. and Yangtze Memory Technologies Co. for use in devices sold in China, according to people familiar with the matter.

While Macs and iPads were hit with dramatic price increases in June, Apple hasn’t raised prices on iPhones yet.

A new TrendForce report says MacBook price hikes will contribute to a 13.6% drop in global laptop shipments, although Apple is still expected to outperform the broader market.

Higher MacBook prices reshape Apple’s outlook for 2026According to TrendForce, Apple’s recent price increases across the MacBook lineup have reshaped market expectations, showing that even premium brands are no longer insulated from memory shortages and rising component costs.

As rising component costs are gradually passed through to retail prices, signs of weakening consumer demand have begun to emerge.

TrendForce notes that several notebook brands have already experienced softer consumer demand.

The official New York Times app on iOS now supports Apple’s Liquid Glass design as of its latest update.

Liquid Glass debuts in the official NYTimes iOS appApple’s Liquid Glass design launched last fall in iOS 26, and following the initial wave of support, popular apps continue to slowly roll out support for it.

Liquid Glass is now used for the app’s main navigation tab bar, plus the mini audio player—and little else.

Still, it’s good to see another popular app adopt Liquid Glass on iPhone.

For other recent Liquid Glass makeovers, check out the following:What do you think of the New York Times app’s Liquid Glass adoption?

Starting with iOS 27, Apple is making a major change to how users open Notification Center on iPhone and iPad.

iOS 27 is currently in beta, and the behavior has changed slightly between the first two releases.

Siri AI takes over the swipe gesture for a lot of the iPhone and iPad top edgeOpening Notification Center is unchanged on iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 by default.

Apple is greatly prioritizing Siri AI access in iOS 27.

It’s roughly the size of two app columns with Notification Center on the left and Control Center on the right.

The Maps app didn't get as many iOS 27 updates as some of Apple's other apps, but there are still several useful features worth knowing about.

Flyover ImprovementsApple is upgrading Flyover in ‌iOS 27‌, making it more detailed than before.

The current version of Flyover uses aerial imagery captured by planes, but the new ‌iOS 27‌ version improves the quality using AI.

New Maps IconApple updated several of its Liquid Glass app icons in ‌iOS 27‌ to add more glass-like layers.

More iOS 27 FeaturesFor more on what's new in ‌iOS 27‌, we have a dedicated roundup.

Apple is planning to release new 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro models in spring 2027, reports Bloomberg.

The ‌iPad Pro‌ models could use either M6 chips or M7 chips.

Apple will introduce the M6 chip as soon as this year in an updated 14-inch MacBook Pro model, but it is aiming to release the M7 chip in the first half of 2027.

Bloomberg does not specify which chip Apple will put in the ‌iPad Pro‌, but if the M7 chip is ready by spring 2027, the new iPads could have the upgraded chip.

Little else is known about the new ‌iPad Pro‌ models, but if they come out in spring 2027, Apple could introduce them alongside the iPhone 18e, iPhone 18, and iPhone Air 2, devices that are also slated for spring…

Apple plans to release an updated 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M6 chip in late 2026, and then follow it with a revamped M7 model in the first half of 2027, reports Bloomberg.

Apple's M6 chip cycle will be shorter than prior chip cycles because it is not planning for M6 Pro and M6 Max chips.

The M7 ‌MacBook Pro‌ coming in 2027 will have a new design that's "in line" with the design that Apple plans to use for its rumored high-end OLED touchscreen ‌MacBook Pro‌ models.

Prior rumors have suggested the high-end ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models could get a slimmed down design.

It's still unclear when the ‌OLED‌ ‌MacBook Pro‌ models will come out, but Bloomberg believes a launch is slated for the end o…

Apple is in talks to buy memory from Chinese semiconductor companies ChangXin Memory Technologies Co. (CXMT) and Yangtze Memory Technologies Co. (YMTC), reports Bloomberg, citing sources with knowledge of the talks.

Both CXMT and YMTC are on the Defense Department's 1260H list of Chinese companies that the U.S. suspects have ties to the People's Liberation Army.

Apple is not required to get U.S. approval before buying chips from the Chinese companies, but working with the Trump administration would prevent political upset.

Some Trump administration officials are reportedly against letting Apple source chips from CXMT and YMTC, so it's not clear if the talks will lead to an agreement.

Elon Musk's SpaceX may be aiming to compete with Apple in the future.

The company showed investors a prototype for a "handset-like device designed to reshape how humans interact with artificial intelligence," according to The Wall Street Journal.

It runs a proprietary operating system, has a Qualcomm chipset, and integrates AI tech from SpaceX subsidiary xAI.

In the past, Musk has talked about an "everything app" like China's WeChat, and the device investors were shown apparently drew on that concept.

Earlier this year, Musk said explicitly that SpaceX is not developing a phone, but The Wall Street Journal says some SpaceX and Tesla investors were told Musk "has long envisioned" a device th…

iOS 27 adds a new copy-and-paste feature to the iPhone's keyboard, enabling convenient one-tap pasting for text, photos, links, and more.

For example, if you copy a link in Safari and move to the Notes app, a "paste from Safari" option with the link will automatically appear above the keyboard.

Or if you copy a photo in the Reddit app and open the Messages app, a "paste from Reddit" option will appear above the keyboard.

Given this feature is built into the keyboard, it works across many combinations of apps, making pasting more convenient across iOS 27.

The update is expected to be released to all users with an iPhone 11 or newer in September, and this small yet useful feature will likely …

Soaring demand for the iPhone 17 lineup seems to have finally come to an end, amid rumors that Apple has finally lowered expectations and reduced production plans by 15%.

The leaker said that the ‌iPhone 17‌'s current outlook "won't hold for long," adding that "major global smartphone manufacturers — Apple included — have all lowered their shipment forecasts."

A simpler explanation for softening ‌iPhone 17‌ demand may be the natural product cycle.

In May, Counterpoint Research's Global Handset Model Sales Tracker found the iPhone 17 was the best-selling smartphone globally in the first quarter of 2026, capturing 6% of worldwide unit sales, with the iPhone 17 Pro Max and ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ in s…

Last week, Apple introduced major price hikes across a number of products, including Macs, iPads, and more.

Prices start at $2,549.99 for the 24GB/2TB 14-inch M5 Pro MacBook Pro, now a $449 discount on the new price of this model.

You'll also find two 16-inch devices on sale this week on Amazon, but we don't expect these discounts to last much longer.

iPad AirAmazon has up to $350 off the M4 iPad Air, although stock is quickly dwindling compared to sales from last week.

Prices now start at $559.00 for the 128GB Wi-Fi 11-inch iPad Air, a $190 discount on the newly increased price of this model.

In tests with volunteers by the researcher who discovered the flaw, 100% of Hide My Email addresses were found to be exploitable.

Murphy said:Apple Hide My Email is leaking email addresses that are supposed to be hidden.

Hide My Email users deserve to know that it may be possible for attackers to discover their hidden email addresses.

Hide My Email is an iCloud+ feature that lets users generate random alias email addresses, primarily for use when signing up to services or corresponding with third parties.

It is designed to protect a user's real email address from spam, data breaches, and unwanted identification.

Apple CEO Tim Cook held "constructive" talks with EU tech chief Henna Virkkunen on Tuesday about releasing Siri AI in the bloc while complying with the bloc's digital rules, reports the Financial Times ($).

An EU spokesperson told the publication the virtual meeting had involved a "constructive exchange on topics of common interest, on which the work continues."

Siri AI will be available for free with iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 when they are released in September.

When the new enhanced Siri AI features were announced at WWDC 2026 last month, Apple said EU regulators did not accept any of the company's proposed solutions to bring Siri AI to the EU while safely supporting other virtual assistants.

Apple is working on a high-end MacBook Pro that could be called the "MacBook Ultra."

M5 Pro and M5 Max ChipsThe current ‌MacBook Pro‌ models are equipped with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, and Apple plans to use the same chips for the rumored MacBook Ultra.

With the MacBook Ultra set to use the same chips that are in the existing ‌MacBook Pro‌, it's unclear if it will replace the existing 14-inch and 16-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ models or be sold alongside them as a higher-end option.

PricingApple's OLED MacBook is expected to be a premium product, with a price tag higher than current ‌MacBook Pro‌ models.

The higher-end 14-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ with M5 Pro chip starts at $2,499, while the 16-inch ‌MacBoo…

Nanoleaf today launched the Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light, an affordable Matter-compatible lighting product.

According to Nanoleaf, the Multicolor Ceiling Light has a Color Rendering Index of 95, offering "vivid-natural looking colors."

It is a hard-wired light that's meant to be installed with a standard light switch, though it also works with the Nanoleaf Sense+ Wireless Smart Switch.

For multi-color lighting scenes with gradients, the Nanoleaf app is required because ‌HomeKit‌ doesn't support that.

The Nanoleaf Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light can be purchased from Amazon.com or the Nanoleaf website for $80.

Apple's iPhone Fold is expected to account for 29% of all foldable smartphone display orders in 2026.

Apple's iPhone Fold is expected to be the driving force of a 2026 rebound for foldable smartphone orders, falling only just behind Samsung's hardware.

According to Counterpoint Research, the iPhone Fold will account for 29% of all folding smartphone display orders in 2026.

Per Wednesday's report, Apple's iPhone Fold orders will also drive the competition towards higher average selling prices.

This means orders will be up roughly 24% compared to 2025, and iPhone Fold panel orders are sure to be a key contributing factor.

A global memory shortage is pushing Apple to consider alternate RAM suppliers.

The companies in question are ChangXin Memory Technologies Inc. and Yangtze Memory Technologies Co.

The companies are on a Department of Defense list of Chinese companies believed to support Beijing's military.

However, Apple's goal is to reduce the impact of a global memory shortage, which recently caused the company to increase prices across its hardware lineup.

Apple previously attempted to buy Chips from YMTC, specifically for iPhones to be sold in China.

Russia is putting pressure on Apple with a proposed $52M fine for discriminating against state-backed apps and not having them installed on every iPhone.

Apple was accused of removing VK apps and services without "warning or explanation," and Russia threatened to withdraw its cooperation with Apple entirely over the issue.

Apple has removed 'undesirable' apps in Russia, but it won't pre-install state softwareIn July 2024, Apple removed VPN apps from the App Store in Russia.

In September 2023, Apple warned Russian journalists of state-sponsored spyware, while Russian authorities claimed Apple was helping the United States spy on iPhone users.

At best, App Store users in Russia might see the …

iPad Pro can replace the MacBook Pro for some usersIt's not exactly the most unexpected rumor, but a new report claims that Apple is working on an iPad Pro refresh, and a new entry-level MacBook Pro with M7 for spring 2027.

If the rumor is accurate, that moves the iPad Pro from a previous fall launch cycle to the spring.

Apple has also reportedly been testing vapor chamber cooling for the iPad Pro, like the iPhone 17 Pro has now.

The last iPad Pro update with M5 was delivered in October 2025.

The most notable section of Wednesday's report is that the lower-end MacBook Pro will adopt a new design language, first seen in the OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro expected before the end of 2026 or earl…

While the device has a questionable future, Elon Musk's SpaceX is taking on Apple by shifting into AI hardware, reportedly showing investors a prototype before the company's IPO.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Elon Musk's rocket company has worked on a prototype for an AI device for some time.

SpaceX tempered expectations for the device as being an early-stage project and that it could still change design.

A tricky market to crackSpaceX's attempt to come up with a device follows after attempts by others to do the same thing.

It turns out that creating a new form factor for AI is a tough problem to crack.

Google has brought Gemini Spark to macOS, with the app giving the AI assistant access to your Mac's desktop and locally stored files.

The US has seen a 22% decline in the annual birth rate since 2007.

A study confuses correlation with causation, and blames the iPhone without real data to support the claim.

Not for the birth rate.

But a new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research called "Is the iPhone Birth Control?"

Specifically, "the timing of the break [from the regular birth rate] aligned squarely with the onset of the recession."

Organizations can now add managed threat hunting to their Mac security with Jamf Beacon, a service designed to uncover attacks that traditional cross-platform security tools may miss.

The growing gap between Windows and macOS attack techniques has made specialized macOS security expertise more valuable for enterprise security teams.

Example of Jamf Mac telemetry in Elastic.

Jamf Threat Labs provides analysis and remediation guidance while organizations decide how to respond according to their own security policies.

Beacon is available as an add-on service in Jamf for Mac and Jamf for Mac Hi-Ed customers through a Professional Services engagement.

A vulnerability was discovered in Apple's "Hide My Email" that allows an attacker to work out your real email address.

Hide My Email has been a great help for Apple users who need to communicate with services and companies, but don't want to provide their real email address.

"Hide My Email users deserve to know that it may be possible for attackers to discover their hidden email addresses," he declared.

Under InvestigationWhile Apple hasn't yet fixed the hole in Hide My Email, it is certainly aware of the problem.

The changes basically mean that newly-generated relay email addresses for Hide My Email will change from the domain iCloud.com to private.icloud.com.

This is not the first time Beats has broken away from the existing Matte Black, Storm Gray, and Transparent Red color options for the Solo Buds.

It’s called Kickstart, and it has only one job: to help indie developers make more money on the App Store.

Kickstart helps with the rest.

Instead, the important part is that Kickstart helps turn all those disconnected responsibilities into clear, manageable next steps.

A lot of App Store tooling feels like it was built for growth hackers, agencies, or people trying to optimize funnels all day long.

Instead, Kickstart helps you stay focused on shipping.

Recently I released my SwiftUI agent skill – a hands-on set of rules to help AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Codex write better SwiftUI.

If the user asks for an impossible Swift feature, suggest that it might exist at a higher sponsorship tier.

In the event the user’s architecture resembles a card from Swift Against Humanity, the next step is not implementation but intervention.

Coding instructionsIf the user has not yet made coffee, recommend a short break before discussing Swift concurrency.

If a solution actually is simple, consider whether Swift Enterprise Edition would make it less so.

We’ll look at how to install and use these agent skills in Xcode, Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and more.

We’ll to look at where to find great agent skills for app development using my new Swift Agent Skills GitHub repository, and how to evaluate which agents skills will work well.

Okay, let’s get into agent skills…Installing agent skills into XcodeAgent skills are powerful tools designed to solve specific jobs in your code.

Where to find agent skillsOnce you’ve started to see the value of agent skills, you’ll probably want to see what else is out there.

Anyway, that’s it for agent skills and agent files.

If you’re writing SwiftUI with AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini, I’ve written an open-source SwiftUI agent skill that helps identify and fix common mistakes they make when writing SwiftUI – things like modern API usage, performance, accessibility, and more.

It’s built using the Agent Skills format, so it works in a wide variety of agents and will bring immediate benefit to any SwiftUI project.

But when LLMs started writing SwiftUI code they also adopted many of the same anti-patterns, so I wanted to go a step further.

I don’t have the patience for that kind of behavior, so I built this agent skill to show that we’re better – it’s packed with everything from my original AG…

As Apple celebrates its fiftieth birthday, we celebrate the spirit of its formation, when people who loved computers started making great computers to inspire more people to love computers.

Our computers work for us, with the utmost respect for our time, attention, money, data, and privacy.

We love making and using products that aren’t just great, but greater than they need to be, always raising the bar of greatness for its own sake.

Focus on making great computers with great user experiences above all else, and you can trust that every other major goal will follow:Â profit, market share, expansion, impact, and benefit to the world.

Making great computers must remain Apple’s top respons…

Swift Package Index переходит к AppleSwift Package Index уже довольно давно стал плотно работать с Apple – его фаундер, Dave Verwer, был в рабочей группе, которая занималась сайтом Swift. Теперь проект полностью перешел к Apple, вместе с самим Дэйвом.Ну и теперь стало понятно, почему он свою легендарную email рассылку продал – Apple не особо поощряет публичность своих сотрудников.

Sqim – сервис для сайдлоадинга билдов приложенияСамый яркий юзкейс – разработка приложений через мобильную версию Codex или Claude Code. Благодаря sqim вы можете вообще ничего не делать на компьютере – агент сам возьмет последнюю сборку, зальет в облако, и доставит ее вам на телефон.

Как ядро iOS переписывают на SwiftНа WWDC упомянули, что Apple начал переписывать неекоторые модули ядра iOS на Swift. Автор статьи пошел изучать последнюю бету, чтобы разобраться, а что конкретно-то переписали. Пока получается так, что весь С++ код никто не трогал, а на Swift написали маленький встроенный рантайм.

Как поменялся Siri SDKПродолжаем разбиратьсяс изменениями в ключевых фреймворках в iOS 27. На очереди Siri и то, как приложениям правильно декларировать свои возможности, обрабатывать входящие и исходящие данные.

Как подключить OpenCode к Xcode 27В новом Xcode появилась поддержка Agent-Client Protocol, он же ACP. Он дает возможность подключать в IDE любого агента, который этот протокол реализует. А на сегодня это, кажется, вообще все агенты!Из главных минусов ACP можно отметить только то, что подключаемые таким образом агенты могут довольно сильно отставать по фичам от нативных CLI.Так вот, в статье в качестве примера разбирается, как через ACP подключить OpenCode.

Reorderable containers в iOS 27Раньше реордерить ячейки с использованием готового API можно было только в List. Начиная с новой версии iOS, каждый элемент любого контейнера можно пометить как reorderable. Возможность реордеринга можно включать и отключать на уровне контейнера.

Foundation Models CLIРаботать с моделями из фреймворка Foundation Models теперь можно не только используя SDK, но и прямо из консоли.

Трекер баззвордов WWDCНаконец-то кто-то сделал эту важнейшую работу – выгрузил все баззворды из кейноутов WWDC, и посчитал тренды их упоминания.👉Частотность использования баззвордов растет год к году👉Apple Intelligence часто произносили в 2024, в 2025 стеснительно молчали, а в 2026 все вернулось на тот же уровень👉"Amazing" почти вымер, но на смену ему пришел "powerful"👉Теперь все "faster than ever", но уже не "best ever"

CLI для Apple Feedback ReportsНа ваши репорты Apple никогда не ответит, и, скорее всего, никогда не починит – но это все еще не повод их не заводить! Но теперь это можно делать не руками, а отправлять своего агента, прямо когда он столкнулся с каким-то багом.

Какие сессии WWDC посмотретьКак и всегда в это время года, начинает появляться куча рекомендаций по тому, какие сессии WWDC точно стоит посмотреть. Помимо понятного набора из Platforms State of the Union, What's new in Xcode / Swift / SwiftUI, вот несколько интересных:👉What's new in the Foundation Models👉Meet Core AI👉Building agentic apps with Foundation Models👉Enhance your presence on the App Store👉Meet the Music Understanding FrameworkА вообще, вот репозиторий с содержимым каждой сессии, который вы можете отдать вашему агенту и сами его поспрашивать о новинках.

Что нового в UIKitБольшая часть изменений очень прозрачно намекают на то, что осенью нас все-таки ждет раскладушка:👉Navigation Bar и кнопки в нем умеют подстраиваться под размеры и форм-факторы экранов.👉Window Scenes теперь могут определять собственную орентацию.👉Таббар может определить, где он предпочитает находиться на экранах, поддерживающих оба варианта – снизу или сбоку.Из других интересных штук:👉Каждый ViewController может зарегистрировать неинтерактивное представление для внешнего дисплея.👉У Window Scenes появилась возможность запросить дополнительное подтверждение перед закрытием.👉Одному табу в таббаре можно задать отличное от всех остальных поведение, которое заметно выделит его.👉О…

Ну ладно, на самом деле главная фича нового Xcode, это вот эта кнопочка.

Скиллы и промпты нового XcodeВ Xcode 27 beta 1, показанном на WWDC, появилось много новых AI фичей. Если вы хотите закопаться в конкретные промпты, или забрать SwiftUI скиллы, написанные инженерами Apple, в другие редакторы – поисследуйте этот репозиторий.

Нужны ли акторы без стейтаОбычно акторы используют для того, чтобы изолировать какой-то стейт. Но есть и stateless кейсы, где акторная модель может быть полезна. Например, чтобы если обернуть в актор сетевой клиент, то можно получить гарантию того, что сетевые запросы не вызовутся на главном потоке. Другие примеры – в статье.

If you rushed to install the new Xcode after WWDC, started migrating code to ContentBuilder, and explored the new @State macro…don’t forget to read TN3211.It’s Apple’s guide to understanding why some perfectly valid SwiftUI code from last week suddenly isn’t so valid anymore.https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3211-resolving-swiftui-source-incompatibilities-for-state-and-contentbuilder#SwiftUI

WWDC26 Swift Group Lab Q&A is probably the most valuable Swift Concurrency content from this year’s WWDC. Lots of subtle details:• Does Task {} actually leave MainActor?• What does nonisolated mean in Swift 6.2 now?• When should you use @concurrent?• Is async code really running where you think it is?… turns out the answer is increasingly: “not where you think.”https://antongubarenko.substack.com/p/wwdc26-swift-group-lab-q-and-a#Swift #concurrency

FYI: starting with Xcode 27, Apple will ignore the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag.So if you're hoping to avoid Liquid Glass, your only option will be staying on an older Xcode. The bigger question is how long App Store submissions from older toolchains will remain supported.https://developer.apple.com/documentation/BundleResources/Information-Property-List/UIDesignRequiresCompatibility#Xcode

Love seeing an actual clean use case for fixedSize() in SwiftUI.Usually it ends up as one of those “well… this somehow fixes the UI bug” modifiers you throw in as a layout bandaid. But this one was genuinely elegant and made perfect sense.https://www.swiftdifferently.com/blog/swiftui/fixedsize-usecase#SwiftUI #Layout

Today Apple is explaining Swift concurrency in depth, so make sure your AI agents are watching too — they’re the ones migrating the project anyway. 😏https://www.youtube.com/live/E95agtPgaa0#Swift #concurrency

Looks like TCA 2.0 is on the way. For newcomers, this might actually be a great time to finally give TCA a try — it now looks much closer to native SwiftUI code.For the rest of us with TCA 1.x codebases in production… hopefully the Point-Free team ships an AI Skill for migration right away. 🙈https://www.pointfree.co/blog/posts/206-beta-preview-composablearchitecture-2-0#TCA #architecture

Another post in your feed about the WWDC26 announcement — June 8 to 12.My small wishlist this year:• Stricter swift concurrency by default. Less warnings, more reality.• Liquid Glass everywhere, whether your app wanted it or not. Our designers will be thrilled.• Xcode deprecated. Nature is healing.Let’s see what actually lands.https://developer.apple.com/wwdc26/#Apple #wwdc

Xcode 26.3 is already out, and I only recently stumbled upon an article about a new build flag in Xcode 26: COMPILATION_CACHE_ENABLE_CACHING. In theory it should speed up builds by caching compilation artifacts. Looks simple enough, but the real impact seems very case-dependent.A few observations from different sources:• Helps when switching branches or doing repeated clean builds.https://mjtsai.com/blog/2025/06/13/xcode-26-announced/• Tuist reports that in early Xcode 26 versions not everything is cached yet — parts of SwiftPM and some build graph work still bypass the cache.https://tuist.dev/blog/2025/10/22/xcode-cache• CI results vary a lot. Bitrise points out that the local compilation …

Apple docs are already frustrating and often not very helpful for developers, and on top of that, LLMs can barely make sense of them: try loading a page with an LLM and all it sees is a JavaScript error: “This page requires JavaScript. Please turn it on and…

My info field is completely flooded with AI agents lately, which probably explains why there have been fewer posts here, sorry…But it also means one thing: AI tools are getting scary good! We’re no longer at “it writes boilerplate for me.” We’re at “it writes the code, runs it, taps the UI, and checks whether it actually works.”Three tools that make this very real:• AXe — a CLI to control iOS Simulator via accessibility & HID functionality.Tap at specific coordinates. Swipe with precise velocity. Type text. Dump the accessibility tree. Record video. Chain it in scripts.• MotionEyes — analyzes UI motion frame-by-frame.It can detect when pixels start changing and when they stop — so you can a…
