@stroughtonsmith Update: this resolved the crash. What must have happened is, since sometimes the register launchHandler closure is not invoked (https://mastodon.world/@jordanhipwell/115549174088540139), nothing happened upon tapping the start processing button, so the user must have rage tapped the button a couple times within the same second. One mystery solved 😅

@stroughtonsmith low power mode was not on. They turned background processing back on and tried it with low power mode off and on, both worked 😮 Super weird! Weird it didn’t work originally (they shared a screen recording of it not working) and weird it’s working now ha

@stroughtonsmith I'll ask!

Hey developers, if you're running a Black Friday sale on your apps, DM me about it. I'm probably going to put together a list of deals for the blog, would love to include you.

I have a surprising BGContinuedProcessingTask issue 😅 One user reported nothing happens when they tap to start processing, which must mean the register block is never called, nor does the submit call throw an error yet the strategy is set to fail if it can't run immediately. iPhone 12 Pro Max + iOS 26.1. Restarting does not fix it. But it works when they turn off the background processing feature to bypass BGContinuedProcessingTask. Seems to be working for everyone else though!

@timonus yes I believe so, ty! https://mastodon.world/@jordanhipwell/115526387101179791

@timonus Thanks! Double checked I'm updating on main :)

@stroughtonsmith Thanks! taskIdentifier is "\(Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier!).stamp_task.\(Int(Date.now.timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate))" so if it were triggered twice in the same second it would happen. Seems impossible given the app's behavior but forcing it to the same string does trigger Assertion failure in -[BGTaskScheduler _unsafe_registerForTaskWithIdentifier:usingQueue:launchHandler:], BGTaskScheduler.m:335 so that must be it with the exact same line number! Can move to ms, thank you 🙏

@simonbs @mattiem have yall seen this? 👀 https://mastodon.world/@jordanhipwell/115526226344388659

I register it like so, marked sendable per https://mastodon.social/@simonbs/115418079414969867 👀

BGTaskScheduler.shared.register(forTaskWithIdentifier: taskIdentifier, using: .main) { @ Sendable [weak self] task in
guard self != nil else { return }
startProcessing(backgroundTask: task)
}

I've received a couple crash reports registering BGContinuedProcessingTask that I can't replicate. Any ideas to resolve? 😅

@agiletortoise I somehow double tap somewhere at the top and it resizes 😅

@b3ll it happens with UIKit as well

FB20519411 (Mac Catalyst: UISearchController's search bar contents are not vertically centered in macOS 26)

What happened to my iPhone 12 mini simulator 😅

@adam 🥲 thank you

What's the UIKit API to add UI elements below the navigation bar causing the edge effect to extend taller, or is there no public API?

DateStamper 10 is now available! It's been months in the making. Some fun stats: 178 commits, +6456 -4896 lines of code, 170 iOS 26 availability checks, compatible with iOS 16+ and macOS 12+ 🥵

@rwitherspoon Scary!

Ah yes, I love the Creative Cloud apps that come as a bonus when installing Photoshop 🥰

@donnywals I’ll be releasing a major app update this week, DateStamper 10 🎉 keeping an eye out for any bugs that crop up 👀
