HiIm currently on iOS 11 Beta 2 (Build 15A5304i) With Update 1 Build 15A5304j just been released, will there be any difference since last weeks release?I can't update OTA to the new build released today.ThanksBarry

I’m experiencing an issue on macOS Tahoe (Developer Beta, July 2025) related to the new “Allow in Menu Bar” section in System Settings. After uninstalling the application Backdrop (developer: Cindori), the entry com.cindori.Backdrop.Wallpaper still appears in the list of apps allowed to show in the menu bar, even though: — The app and all its associated files have been fully deleted. — The LaunchAgents files in ~/Library/LaunchAgents and /Library/LaunchAgents have been removed. — Preferences have been deleted via defaults delete com.cindori.Backdrop and defaults delete com.cindori.Backdrop.Wallpaper. — The system has been restarted. It seems the “Allow in Menu Bar” section keeps phantom references to apps or agents even after complete cleanup. Could you please confirm if this is expected behavior (perhaps for future reactivation) or a bug? Is there any official method or recommended command to permanently remove such residual entries from this list? Thank you very much for your help and clarifications.

Hello, i am currently running iOS 18.4 Public Beta (22E5232a) on an iPhone 16 Pro and i have problems with getting emails in the native mail app. i cannot receive any email from some of my email addresses. there is an “account error“ message that says: “Cannot get mail, The connection to the server failed.” When i enter my password again in settings it works for 1-2 days then stop working. On my iPhone X running iOS 16.7.10 it works perfectly. Only bugs on my iPhone 16 Pro.

Please expedite to Solve this bug , my Singpass is unable to launch in iOS 26. I believe this is more urgent than a new pride theme wallpaper 🏳️‍🌈

When I try to create a post in Apple Support Community, it forces me to create a new account (for some supersmart reason because my apple account is apparently not enough). In this process, I am required to pick a new username and choose my communications preferences. The next screen? 403 Forbidden Error page.

The latest Beta update 18.5.4 has caused connectivity problems with my car (Skoda Enyaq) whereby there is no connection via Bluetooth or the cars internal WiFi. Also contacts will not download to the care which is very frustrating.

Hello :-) I‘m not entirely sure, if I‘m on the correct Place here. But I would like to report some Bugs with tvOS 26 (Beta 6) to the Apple Engineers! Description I am reporting multiple persistent UI animation issues observed in tvOS 26 (Beta 3). These issues have been reproducible across multiple tvOS releases. They are subtle but noticeable, and they affect the overall polish and perceived quality of the system. I am happy to provide high-quality video captures for each of the issues described below. ⸻ Bug #1: App launch animation stutter/jump Summary: The zoom-in animation from a Springboard icon to full-screen app stutters or jumps at the moment the app becomes full screen. Steps to reproduce: 1. On Springboard, select any app icon. 2. Observe the zoom-in animation. Expected result: Smooth, continuous zoom without frame drops or jumps. Actual result: Animation visibly stutters/jumps at the full-screen transition. Possible cause: Timing issue in Core Animation interpolation or abrupt view hierarchy switch. ⸻ Bug #2: Text rendering weight change (“jump”) during transitions Summary: Text inside apps changes visual weight mid-transition from scaled preview to full screen. Steps to reproduce: 1. From Springboard or App Switcher, launch an app with visible text. 2. Observe text during the zoom animation — initially slightly bolder, then thinner once full screen. Also occurs in: • Top Shelf banners in the Dock • App Switcher → full-screen transitions Expected result: Consistent text rendering throughout the transition. Actual result: Visible “pop” in text weight/anti-aliasing during transition. Possible cause: Different rasterization/anti-aliasing mode between preview snapshot (CALayer.contents) and live CoreText/UIKit rendering. ⸻ Bug #3: Focus shadow jumps instead of interpolating smoothly Summary: Shadows around focused UI elements (icons, buttons) change abruptly during focus transitions. Steps to reproduce: 1. Navigate between focusable UI elements on Springboard or in apps. 2. Observe the shadow effects. Expected result: Shadows interpolate smoothly (offset, opacity, radius) during focus transitions. Actual result: Shadows “jump” abruptly, breaking animation smoothness. Possible cause: UIFocusEngine not interpolating shadow parameters consistently. ⸻ Bug #4: Abrupt jumps when swiping horizontally between content items Summary: In horizontally scrollable poster/content rows, focus snaps abruptly instead of scrolling smoothly. Steps to reproduce: 1. In the TV app or any app with horizontal poster rows, swipe left/right. 2. Observe the transition between focused items. Expected result: Smooth horizontal navigation with continuous motion. Actual result: Occasional abrupt snapping/jumping between items. ⸻ Impact While none of these bugs block core functionality, they degrade the premium feel and visual polish of tvOS. They are persistent across releases and occur in core system UI, so they are visible to all users. Note I can provide video recordings for each bug to assist engineering in reproducing and analyzing the issues.

Hi, I’ve recently installed the iOS 26 DB, and I’m experiencing heating issues on my iPhone. Is there a fix to this? Also, is it a bug or a feature, that I can’t remove certain sections in the Photos app rather than rearranging them. Pls lemme know. Thanks.

Facial recognition is not working with the glasses. I tried to do a new recognition with the glasses, and it's giving a direct error. Is anyone having the same problem?

I paid for my developer account on the 13th of June 2024 (1 week ago). My ID was approved. However, I still don't have access to the account. When I go to check the status of it, it is asking me to pay again. I then tried to email the team, however only received useless, timewasting responses, such as "Please go to developer.apple.com/enroll to enroll for an apple dev account", which I already told them prompts me to pay again and verify my ID again. I then tried to call them, and they said they had to re-verify my ID and would call me back in 10 mins, but I never received a call back. I also couldn't call them again because it wouldn't let me request another call from them. I then emailed them, but still haven't received a response. The next day I tried to request another call from them, during their opening hours at Thursday 4pm AEST, (they are open Mon-Fri 9am-5pm AEST see https://developer.apple.com/support/worldwide-telephone-hours/) however it still says that "Phone support is currently unavailable". I tried to email them but now I am getting no responses at all. I tried to contact the apple support through the iMessage chat, however I was only put on call with a lady who was helpful, but couldn't even do anything as she was only generic support. She couldn't even schedule me a call or transfer me to the developer team, even though it was within their working and calling/support hours. I have tried to refund my developer account, but apparently that purchase is "illegible for a refund". This is the treatment I get from apple for paying $100 USD. An entire week of being left on blank. I don't know what to do. I paid 100 bucks for an account which I can't even use, and the support hasn't helped me for an entire week. My emails being left on blank, and I can't even call them. If anyone from apple or anyone that could help me sees this, please contact me ASAP at makrypodisc@ hotmail.com or reply to this thread. Thank you.

Area: Software Update Type of Feedback: Application Bug Description Device: iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 26 Build environment: Xcode 16.4 Problem description: When a text field has secureTextEntry = YES and Password Autofill / Passkeys is active, the autofill panel is not included in the rect reported from the keyboard notifications (UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey or others). As a result, when calculating the offset to move the screen up and reveal the hidden input field, the field is not displayed correctly because the reported keyboard height is smaller than the actual visible height. Observed behavior: This only occurs on devices running iOS 26 built with Xcode 16.4. On previous versions of iOS, with the same settings (secureTextEntry and Autofill active), the rect correctly includes the autofill panel height, and the UI works as expected. I tested with both UIKeyboardDidShowNotification and UIKeyboardWillChangeFrameNotification, and in both cases the behavior is the same: the height is incorrect (smaller than expected with the autofill panel). What I expect / questions: That UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey (or the related notification) correctly reports the total area covered by the keyboard, including any password autofill panel, when secureTextEntry is active. That the new behavior in iOS 26 be documented if this omission is intentional, or otherwise considered a bug if it is not. If there is any official workaround suggested by Apple for developers affected by this issue while a fix is provided. Thank you for your support.

I have filed 27 bug reports against macOS using Feedback Assistant and none have had any sort of follow-up. I'm wondering if anyone at Apple looks at these reports? A few of these involve accessibility features that are not working (for example: speak announcements doesn't work -- and yes, my feedback is much more detailed than "doesn't work"). I would have thought issues with accessibility would be a high priority for Apple to fix quickly. Another report is that Grapher uses black text on dark gray making it very difficult to see the formula you enter. This should be a one-line code fix. These two, and 25 other bug reports have seemingly been ignored. Several of these reports indicate more than 10 similar reports, yet go unfixed. Leading me back to my opening question -- does anyone at Apple read these reports? I'd like to think I'm helping Apple to deliver a more perfect product but I feel like I'm wasting my time writing detailed bug reports. Is there another way to bring these to Apple's attention?

Hello everyone, I'm a 2nd-year Computer Science student who's excited to dive into iOS development, and I'd really appreciate some guidance from the experienced developers in this community. MY CURRENT BACKGROUND I have a solid foundation in programming fundamentals through my university coursework (data structures, algorithms, OOP concepts), and I'm familiar with general software development principles. However, iOS development is entirely new territory for me, and I want to make sure I start on the right foot. WHAT I'M LOOKING TO UNDERSTAND Learning Path & Technologies Should I start with UIKit or SwiftUI? I've heard conflicting opinions about this How important is it to learn Objective-C in 2025, or should I focus solely on Swift? Are there any foundational Apple frameworks I should prioritize learning early on? Roadmap & Structured Learning Is there a recommended roadmap or learning sequence I should follow? What skills/topics should I master before moving to more advanced concepts? Should I learn iOS development in a linear fashion, or is it better to learn as I build projects? Are there any official Apple learning paths or certifications worth pursuing? Common Mistakes to Avoid What are the most common pitfalls beginners face when starting iOS development? Are there any bad habits or patterns I should consciously avoid from day one? What misconceptions did you have as a beginner that you wish someone had corrected earlier? Project-Based Learning What types of projects would you recommend for someone at my level? Should I build several small apps or focus on one comprehensive project? At what point should I start contributing to open-source iOS projects? Best Practices & Design Patterns Which iOS-specific design patterns (MVC, MVVM, etc.) should I learn first? How can I develop good habits around memory management and app architecture from the beginning? What resources do you recommend for learning iOS best practices, not just syntax? Apple Ecosystem & Tools Beyond Xcode, what tools should be in my toolkit? How important is it to learn about TestFlight, Instruments, and other Apple developer tools early on? Should I get comfortable with CocoaPods/SPM from the start, or wait until I'm more experienced? MY GOALS My goal is to build a solid foundation over the next 6-8 months, create a few portfolio-worthy apps and pursuing iOS development as a career path after graduation. SPECIFIC QUESTIONS How many hours per week would you recommend dedicating to learning iOS development while managing university coursework? What's the best way to stay updated with Apple's annual changes and new frameworks? When should I start thinking about publishing apps to the App Store? Are there any mentorship programs or communities specifically for beginner iOS developers you'd recommend? I know this is a lot of questions, but I genuinely want to learn the right way rather than picking up bad habits I'll have to unlearn later. Any advice, resources, or personal experiences you're willing to share would be incredibly valuable to me. Thank you in advance for taking the time to help a beginner. I'm committed to putting in the work and learning properly!

Hi all, I’m running into a persistent build issue with my Swift project ORSOFINAL after migrating from Xcode stable to Xcode-beta.app (June 2025 version). ⸻ 💥 Errors displayed: 1. C99 was enabled in PCH file but is currently disabled 2. module file .../ModuleCache.noindex/SwiftShims-AXUM98L131W4...pcm cannot be loaded due to a configuration mismatch with the current compilation 3. missing required module 'SwiftShims' ⸻ 🛠 What I’ve already tried: • xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer • Deleted ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData, ModuleCache.noindex, Archives, and Products • Ran sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch • Clean Build Folder in Xcode-beta • Verified Command Line Tools setting points to Xcode-beta ⸻ ❓Looking for guidance on: • Whether this is a known bug in Xcode-beta • If SwiftShims/PCM conflicts are expected between versions • Best practices to safely migrate from Xcode stable to beta for Swift-based projects Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks, Mathéo

In the public release of iOS 18.4.1 and iPadOS 18.4.1, external input support for keyboards and mice is critically degraded. This issue affects both Apple-branded and third-party HID-compliant devices, over both wired USB-C and Bluetooth. Tested Hardware: • iPhone 16 Pro Max (256GB) • iPad Pro (USB-C, latest gen), last gen iPad as well Affected Devices: • Apple Magic Mouse and Keys (wired USB-C/Bluetooth) • Redragon K580RGBPRO (Bluetooth/wired USB-C) • Razer Naga V2 Pro (Bluetooth/USB-C) Symptoms: • Severe keystroke delay and dropped input • Modifier keys (Shift, Command, Option) fail intermittently • Input degrades further with multiple HID devices connected • Mouse input via Bluetooth exhibits pointer lag and jitter • Occurs in all apps: Notes, Safari, Mail, text fields, password entries, etc. • Identical results using Apple USB-C cables Reproducibility: 100%. Clean boots, minimal background activity, and isolated environments (including Airplane Mode) do not resolve the issue. Identical behavior across both iPhone and iPad. Expected Behavior: All HID-compliant external input devices — particularly Apple-branded ones — should provide low-latency, reliable, and consistent input over both USB-C and Bluetooth, especially in a production iOS/iPadOS release. Actual Behavior: External keyboards and mice exhibit: • Lag • Dropped characters • Failed modifiers • Degraded mouse tracking Even with the latest hardware and clean configurations. Severity: Critical. This is a platform-level failure affecting I/O at the user interaction layer. Input reliability is non-negotiable — especially on $2000+ flagship devices using Apple’s own peripherals. Closing Note (for Apple engineering & peer devs): This is not a beta regression — it’s a public release flaw that undermines iOS and iPadOS usability for power users, professionals, and accessibility communities alike. That Apple Magic Keyboard, Redragon, and Razer gear all fail equally and consistently should be a wake-up call. Apple: this needs to be escalated. Now. External input — one of the most basic subsystems in any OS — is broken on your highest-end devices.

I develop and build the DeepSkyStacker application on an M4 Mac Mini. A user reports that with a given set of data files and application settings, that it crashes on his M4 MAX. He sent me his data files, and I can't provoke a crash on my M4. He also sent an App Crash report file which I attach. Any insight into the likely cause of the problem will be appreciated (yes, I know it is a segfault in code called from Avx256Stacking::pixelPartitioning - probably a lambda ...). dss-6.1.3-crash.log
