Declare XSAppIconAssets in the app manifest so actool receives --app-icon and the bundle carries CFBundleIconName, and always pass both Xcode version placeholders to the ReplayKit extension so an empty build number cannot drop CFBundleVersion and fail installd.
VoiceCat
VoiceCat is a self-hosted, channel-based voice and text chat system built on .NET 10. It uses TLS 1.3 for protobuf control traffic and authenticated encrypted UDP for Opus media. There is no WebRTC, central directory, or plaintext mode.
The repository contains a managed server, CLI, shared client/audio core, and native Windows, macOS, and iOS user interfaces. A small C library supplies Opus/RNNoise, and a small Swift iOS extension captures ReplayKit application audio.
Build
./scripts/build-native.ps1
dotnet restore VoiceCat.slnx --locked-mode
dotnet build VoiceCat.slnx -c Release --no-restore
dotnet test VoiceCat.slnx -c Release --no-build
