Your annual reminder to get any Feedback in asap now that Beta 4 of the OSes and Beta 5 of Xcode are out. Don’t hope in silence; if there’s something that feels like a REALLY BIG DEAL to you, let us know with a Feedback! (Bonus points for telling us WHY by describing your use case.) We’ll also take non-emergency Feedback too. We really do want to know how you’re using (or want to use!) our APIs. And remember, folks, *dupes are VOTES.* ❤️⌚️👩🏿💻🧑🏽💻👨🏼💻👩🏼💻 ⌚️❤️
@matt1corey Haha, once per release (or at least once per seed), please. :-)
@lorihc You all are the best. Thanks for all of this.
@lorihc thanks for this. I really appreciate your promotion and enthusiasm here.
I’ll be duping this issue for Xcode Beta 5. We can’t archive our app because our soon to be released watch app (Tuesday!) made our project multi platform.
@lorihc all I really want is the ability to block an artist forever in Apple Music.
@lorihc this seed has broken sleep detection for me.
There is no specific category in feedback assistant so I filed it under “other” so hoping this gets through to you.
@denisdepalatis What’s the FB number?
@lorihc I think I’ll have to take that one back. Data decided to show up after some time. I’ll close this radar for now and will keep monitoring.
@lorihc Thanks for all the care 😍
I know it may not be under your control, but there is no way to upload builds from Xcode beta 5 to TestFlight 🥲
@asiergmorato hang tight for a couple days. :-)
@lorihc there’s a particularly nasty one this time where creating a new file crashes Xcode 😰 ( FB12757564 )
@lorihc the one that seems to fall on deaf ears and is extremely important to me is: let me upload to TestFlight with beta tools. Some beta releases of 15 allow this, others don’t, and because of that, when FB or ASC tell me that’s not allowed, I am dumbstuck. I don’t know how apple can possibly expect devs to be ready for a new OS if we can’t upload to TestFlight with prerelease tools.
@JetForMe Not deaf ears. Hang tight for a couple days, should be enabled soon.
@lorihc I misspoke when I said “deaf ears." I mean, the responses I get are "you can only use released tools to upload to app store." My experience has proven otherwise, but it has been uneven, working in one release, then not the next, then again in the next, then not in the latest.
And my argument is, while I'm okay with not allowing an app built with prerelease tools to be submitted for App Store Review, we absolutely should be allowed to submit to TestFlight with prerelease tools.
Thank you for the response!
@lorihc official word! Thank you. Let’s hope everyone answering support emails and FBs sees that ;)
@lorihc @twostraws one tiny little thing I noticed, is that I can’t run anything in the simulators anymore, because they download and then when I download them again, they say it’s already download it and download failed. it seems like a small thing I know, but my developer account is up for renewal this week, and at the moment I’m going on vacation instead. as they say in relationships, “it’s been real“🍸🐈
@lorihc My feedback for "⌘X / ⌘C to cut or copy an entire line when nothing is selected" has been ignored for years now 🫥
@lorihc Hi Lori, I've submitted 16 visionOS feedback issues with example projects and screenshots and detailed repro steps and I haven't received any responses.
I have several unfiled issues queued up but I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time.
Half of these are blockers that would make my app unshippable.
Any advice?

@drewolbrich The OS itself hasn’t shipped yet. 😂 I’d keep an eye on the betas and decide for yourself whether your issues are getting attention. I am of the mind that a team cannot fix a bug it doesn’t know about, so I file issues daily for all the platforms I use.
@lorihc Half the time I launch my app, visionOS RealityView attachment controls randomly ignore all user interaction.
I filed this as FB13143132 with an example Xcode project and detailed repro steps, but this issue makes any new development frustrating. From the perspective of a developer on the other end of the pipe, it feels like FB13143132 was ignored.
I literally am "hoping in silence".
Any advice for drawing more attention to this particular feedback issue?
Thanks for you help! ❤️
@drewolbrich @lorihc put your source code in a public repository, so other devs can reproduce?
@deeje @lorihc Thanks for the suggestion. Here is a repo with the example project and a screenshot and repro steps: https://github.com/drewolbrich/AttachmentControls/
@lorihc @sommer There actually is a very serious accessibility regression in Xcode 16 beta right now concerning VoiceOver.
Looks like the way in which code autocomplete suggestions appear while typing has been redesigned in a way that is no longer accessible to VO, but also causes issues where VO focus is getting lost when that popover is dismissed. Filed in beta 3 and this still persists, really hoping for a last-minute fix. FB14251616
@lorihc FB14064179, FB13799436 (it’s a WCFileStorage bug report). Full story: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/751623
@lorihc FB14032674 Query Macro in SwiftUI does not refresh view when context is modified in other context than mainContext. Worked perfectly in Sonoma. But not in the latest beta of Sequoia. Changing data from a backgound worker should be a normal thing on macOS.
@lorihc are we allowed to duplicate our own Feedbacks to vote early and often? 😜
