We use SwiftUI's .tabViewBottomAccessory in our iOS apps for displaying an Audio MiniPlayer View (like in the Apple Music App). TabView(selection: $viewModel.selectedTab) { // Tabs here } .tabViewBottomAccessory { if viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer { MiniPlayerView() } } The Problem This code works perfectly on iOS 26.0. When viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer is false, the accessory is completely hidden. However, on iOS 26.1 (23B5059e), when 'viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer' becomes false, the MiniPlayerView disappears, but an empty container remains, leaving a blank space above the tab bar. Is this a known Bug in iOS 26.1 and are there any effective workarounds?

I have a custom document-based iOS app that also runs on macOS. After implementing -activityItemsConfiguration to enable sharing from the context menu, I found that the app crashes on macOS when selecting Share… from the context menu and then selecting Save (i.e. Save to Files under iOS). This problem does not occur on iOS, which behaves correctly. - (id<UIActivityItemsConfigurationReading>)activityItemsConfiguration { NSItemProvider * provider = [[NSItemProvider alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:self.document.presentedItemURL]; UIActivityItemsConfiguration * configuration = [UIActivityItemsConfiguration activityItemsConfigurationWithItemProviders:@[ provider ]]; // XXX crashes with com.apple.share.System.SaveToFiles return configuration; } Additionally, I found that to even reach this crash, the workaround implemented in the NSItemProvider (FBxxx) category of the sample project is needed. Without this, the app will crash much earlier, due to SHKItemIsPDF() erroneously invoking -pathExtension on an NSItemProvider. This appears to be a second bug in Apple’s private ShareKit framework. #import <UniformTypeIdentifiers/UniformTypeIdentifiers.h> @implementation NSItemProvider (FBxxx) // XXX SHKItemIsPDF() invokes -pathExtension on an NSItemProvider (when running under macOS, anyway) -> crash - (NSString *)pathExtension { return self.registeredContentTypes.firstObject.preferredFilenameExtension; } @end Again, this all works fine on iOS (17.5) but crashes when the exact same app build is running on macOS (14.5). I believe these bugs are Apple's. Any idea how to avoid the crash? Is there a way to disable the "Save to Files" option in the sharing popup? I filed FB13819800 with a sample project that demonstrates the crash on macOS. I was going to file a TSI to get this resolved, but I see that DTS is not responding to tech support incidents until after WWDC.

I have a SwiftUI Mac Catalyst app. I create a toolbar like this NavigationSplitView(columnVisibility: $sceneModel.columnVisibility, preferredCompactColumn: $preferredColumn) { sidebarView() } detail: { contentView() .toolbar { ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .topBarTrailing) { HStack { Button { sceneModel.onMaps(sender: self) } label: { Image(systemName: "map") .font(.title2) } Button { sceneModel.onSearch(sender: self) } label: { Image(systemName: "magnifyingglass") .font(.title2) } ... } } } } When my Mac Appearance is set to dark mode and the content under the toolbar is dark the toolbar looks good like this. But then if I have light content under the toolbar, the glass effect changes to light, but the tint on the icons stays white instead of changing to black and it is hard to see the icon. It looks like this. When I set the Appearance on my Mac to light, then the toolbar works just fine on both dark and light colored backgrounds. Does anyone know how I can fix this when the appearance is Dark?

Please has anyone found a workaround for duplicate back buttons appearing on the toolbar of a ContentView launched from a DocumentGroup? The problem occurs with Xcode 14.0 running a basic DocumentGroup App on iOS 16.0. To reproduce, simply build a new project using the "Document App" template. Build and run in the iOS/iPadOS simulator or on an iOS/iPadOS device. Two back buttons appear. Only one functions. I've not found a way to eliminate the dud. This problem has occurred throughout the Xcode 14.0 beta program.

Hello! My question is about 1) if we can use any and or all accessibility features within a sandboxed app and 2) what steps we need to take to do so. Using accessibility permissions, my app was working fine in Xcode. It used NSEvent.addGlobalMonitorForEvents and localMoniter, along with CGEvent.tapCreate. However, after downloading the same app from the App Store, the code was not working. I believe this was due to differences in how permissions for accessibility are managed in Xcode compared to production. Is it possible for my app to get access to all accessibility features, while being distributed on the App Store though? Do I need to add / request any special entitlements like com.apple.security.accessibility? Thanks so much for the help. I have done a lot of research on this online but found some conflicting information, so wanted to post here for a clear answer.

When you use .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "placeholder", in: placehoder)) for navigation animation, going back using the swipe gesture is still very buggy on IOS26. I know it has been mentioned in other places like here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796805?answerId=856846022#856846022 but nothing seems to have been done to fix this issue. Here is a video showing the bug comparing when the back button is used vs swipe to go back: https://imgur.com/a/JgEusRH I wish there was a way to at least disable the swipe back gesture until this bug is fixed.

I have SwiftData models containing arrays of Codable structs that worked fine before adding CloudKit capability. I believe they are the reason I started seeing errors after enabling CloudKit. Example model: @Model final class ProtocolMedication { var times: [SchedulingTime] = [] // SchedulingTime is Codable // other properties... } After enabling CloudKit, I get this error logged to the console: 'NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData' should not be used to for un-archiving and will be removed in a future release CloudKit Console shows this times data as "plain text" instead of "bplist" format. Other struct/enum properties display correctly (I think) as "bplist" in CloudKit Console. The local SwiftData storage handled these arrays fine - this issue only appeared with CloudKit integration. What's the recommended approach for storing arrays of Codable structs in SwiftData models that sync with CloudKit?

On testing my app with tvOS 18, I have noticed the Siri Remote back button no longer provides system-provided behavior when interacting with tab bar controller pages. Instead of moving focus back to the tab bar when pressed, the back button will close the app, as if the Home button was pressed. This occurs both on device and in the Simulator. Create tvOS project with a tab bar controller. Create pages/tabs which contain focusable items (ie. buttons) Scroll down to any focusable item (ie. a button or UICollectionView cell) Hit the Siri Remote back button. See expect behavior below: Expected behavior: System-provided behavior should move focus back to the tab bar at the top of the screen. Actual results: App is closed and user is taken back to the Home Screen. Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

My app has the following UI layout: NSSplitViewController as the windows contentViewController NSPageController in the content (right) split item NSTabViewController as the root items of the NSPageController NSViewController with a collection view in the first tab of that NSTabViewController The collection view is using a NSCollectionViewCompositionalLayout in which the sections are set up to have a header using NSCollectionLayoutBoundarySupplementaryItem with pinToVisibleBounds=true and alignment=top With macOS 26, the pinned supplementary item automatically gets a blurred/semi-transparent background that seamlessly integrates with the toolbar. When the window's title bar has a NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController added, the said semi-transparent background gets a bottom hard edge and a hairline to provide more visual separation from the main content. During runtime, my NSPageController transitions from the NSTabViewController to another view controller. When transitioning back, the semi-transparent blur bleeds into the entire section. This happens no matter if there's a NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController added or not. It doesn't happen 100% of the cases, it seems to depend on section size, header visibility and/or scroll position. But it happens more often than not. Most of the time, a second or so after the back transition - shortly after pageControllerDidEndLiveTransition: of the NSPageControllerDelegate is called - the view updates and the supplementary views are back to normal. Sometimes, the issue also appears not when transitioning using NSPageController, but simply by scrolling through the collection view. Anyone has an idea what is happening here? Below are two screenshots of both the "ok" and "not ok" state I'm on macOS 26.0.1 and I'm using XCode 26.0.1

I am using a LayzVStack embedded into a ScrollView. The list items are fetched from a core data store by using a @FetchResult or I tested it also with the new @Query command coming with SwiftData. The list has one hundred items 1, 2, 3, ..., 100. The user scrolled the ScrollView so that items 50, 51, ... 60 are visible on screen. Now new data will be fetched from the server and updates the CoreData or SwiftData model. When I add new items to the end of the list (e.g 101, 102, 103, ...) then the ScrollView is keeping its position. Opposite to this when I add new items to the top (0, -1, -2, -3, ...) then the ScrollView scrolls down. Is there a way with the new SwiftData and SwiftUI ScrollView modifiers to update my list model without scrolling like with UIKit where you can query and set the scroll offset pixel wise?

I have an icon button in toolbar but only the icon is triggering tap events while outside icon button gives tap feedback but event is not firing. Code: ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { Button(action: toggleBookmark) { Image(systemName: isBookmarked ? "bookmark.fill" : "bookmark") .resizable() .aspectRatio(0.8, contentMode: .fit) .frame(width: 20, height: 20) } } Here toggleBookmark function is only called if I click on Image but not if I click outside image but on the circular button that appears on iOS 26. See this screen recording.

I've encountered a potential bug where a TextField connected to an optional value (not a string) works as expected when bound to a @State property, but won't update a @Binding property. Here is some example code import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @Binding var boundValue: Double? @State private var stateValue: Double? = 55 var body: some View { TextField("Bound value", value: $boundValue, format: .number) Text("\(boundValue ?? .nan)") TextField("State value", value: $stateValue, format: .number) Text("\(stateValue ?? .nan)") } } #Preview { ContentView(boundValue: .constant(42.00)) } It's as though the optional value stored externally is preventing the value updating. Can anyone confirm whether this is intentional, or a bug? This is in Xcode 26b6, on macOS Tahoe 26b8, but from this query it looks like the problem has existed for years.

I have an existing Mac app which has evolved through over twenty years of development. It is currently written in a mixture of C++ and Objective-C, with a bit of C and Swift in a few places. For a few years now, I have been tinkering with replacing the UI with SwiftUI. The model has been completely rewritten in Swift and works fine. After a few tries, no version has been working acceptably, so I'm thinking that I need to rethink the architecture. The UI consists of a window with a master-detail view. The detail view is what users spend most of their time with. It contains a lot of subviews, around 100 typically. Keyboard events affect the display, so I've had a dedicated data structure to hold the state that is needed for displaying all the subviews. Using Instruments, I see that the view seems to recreate the subviews three times per keyboard event, so I'm clearly doing something wrong. A second factor is that there are a couple of dozen commands that are applicable to the detail view, driven either by menu items, keyboard shortcut, or toolbar button. Adding all of those to the view makes for a massive SwiftUI View, which seems unlikely to be good practice. The current implementation has the controller class broken up with categories, but still they are big classes. Most SwiftUI stuff on the web is iOS-oriented, and typically has a focus on fairly simple apps, so the whole topic of dealing with menu commands doesn't get a lot of coverage, so I've been doing all that through my own solutions, which are probably nothing like optimal. What I've been able to find is not particularly helpful for a full-fledged application like mine, so I'm looking for advice on how to structure the app. The existing one is largely MVC, but I've tried a similar approach and a shot at MVVM, but I'm not getting good results so far. So, pointers, places I can read more, or samples of real-world apps is what I'm after. Anyone?

I have a UIKit app with a custom navigation controller. I want my view title to go up into the navigation bar when the user scrolls down the screen. It looks like UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction should do what I want, but I am having trouble using it. Below is a sample, where a header view represents a title. I added the interaction to the header view, but it seems to have no effect. Am I missing a step? Perhaps I misunderstand what this is supposed to do, or perhaps I do not understand the preconditions to make this work. I am hoping someone can tell me what I am doing wrong, or point me to some working sample code. Thank you. John class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate { var headerView: UIVisualEffectView! var tableView: UITableView! var interaction: UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.tableView = UITableView() self.tableView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false self.tableView.topEdgeEffect.style = .soft self.tableView.delegate = self self.tableView.dataSource = self self.tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "cell") self.view.addSubview(self.tableView) self.view.addConstraints([ self.tableView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.topAnchor), self.tableView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.leadingAnchor), self.tableView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.trailingAnchor), self.tableView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.bottomAnchor), ]) self.headerView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: UIGlassEffect(style: .regular)) self.headerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false self.headerView.backgroundColor = .green self.view.addSubview(self.headerView) self.view.addConstraints([ self.headerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.topAnchor), self.headerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.leadingAnchor), self.headerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.trailingAnchor), self.headerView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100.0), ]) let label = UILabel() label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false label.text = "my text" self.headerView.contentView.addSubview(label) self.headerView.contentView.addConstraints([ label.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.headerView.contentView.centerXAnchor), label.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.headerView.contentView.centerYAnchor), ]) self.interaction = UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction() self.interaction.scrollView = self.tableView self.interaction.edge = .top self.headerView.addInteraction(self.interaction) } func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int { return 1 } func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int { return 100 } func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell { let cell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath) cell.textLabel?.text = "row \(indexPath.row + 1)" return cell } }

I've posted a couple times now about major issues I'm having with NSLayoutManager and have written to Apple for code-level support, but no one at Apple has responded to me in more than two weeks. So I'm turning to the community again for any help whatsoever. I'm fairly certain it's a real bug in TextKit. If I'm right about that, I'd love for anyone at Apple to take an interest. And better yet, if I'm wrong (and I hope I am), I'd be incredibly grateful to anyone who can point out where my mistake lies! I've been stuck with this bug for weeks on end. The crux of the issue is that I'm getting what seemed to be totally incompatible results from back to back calls to textContainer(forGlyphAt:effectiveRange:) and lineFragmentRect(forGlyphAt:effectiveRange:withoutAdditionalLayout:)... I'd lay out my text into a fairly tall container of standard page width and then query the layout manager for the text container and line fragment rect for a particular glyph (a glyph that happens to fall after many newlines). Impossibly, the layout manager would report that that glyph was in said very tall container, but that the maxY of its lineFragmentRect was only at 14 points (my NSTextView's isFlipped is true, so that's 14 points measuring from the top down). After investigating, it appears that what is happening under the hood is NSLayoutManager is for some reason laying out text back into the first container in my series of containers, rather than overflowing it into the next container(s) and/or giving me a nil result for textContainer(forGlyphAt:...) I've created a totally stripped down version of my project that recreates this issue reliably and I'm hoping literally anyone at Apple will respond to me. In order to recreate the bug, I've had to build a very specific set of preview data - namely some NSTextStorage content and a unique set of NSTextViews / NSTextContainers. Because of the unique and particular setup required to recreate this bug, the code is too much to paste here (my preview data definition is a little unwieldy but the code that actually processes/parses it is not). I can share the project if anyone is able and willing to look into this with me. It seems I'm not able to share a .zip of the project folder here but am happy to email or share a dropbox link.

I need to check the network connection with NWPathMonitor. import Foundation import Network class NetworkViewModel: ObservableObject { let monitor = NWPathMonitor() let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "NetworkViewModel") @Published var isConnected = false var connectionDescription: String { if isConnected { return "You are connected." } else { return "You are NOT connected." } } init() { monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { path in DispatchQueue.main.async { self.isConnected = path.status == .satisfied } } monitor.start(queue: queue) } } import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject private var networkViewModel = NetworkViewModel() var body: some View { VStack { } .onAppear { if networkViewModel.isConnected { print("You are connected.") } else { print("You are NOT connected.") } } } } So there is nothing special, not at all. Yet, if I test it with a totally new Xcode project for iOS, it fails and return !isConnected. I've tested it with a macOS application. And it fails. I've tested it with an actual device. It fails. I've tested it with an old project. It still does work. I have no mere idea why new Xcode projects all fail to detect the WiFi connection. This is a total nightmare. Does anybody have a clue? thanks.

For whatever reason SwiftUI sheets don't seem to be resizable anymore. The exact same code/project produces resizable Sheets in XCode 15.4 but unresizable ones with Swift included in Xcode 16 beta 2. Tried explicitly providing .fixedSize(horizontal false, vertical: false) everywhere humanly possible hoping for a fix but sheets are still stuck at an awkward size (turns out be the minWidth/minHeight if I provide in .frame).

I have a SwiftUI app. It fetches records through CoreData. And I want to show some records on a widget. I understand that I need to use AppGroup to share data between an app and its associated widget. import Foundation import CoreData import CloudKit class DataManager { static let instance = DataManager() let container: NSPersistentContainer let context: NSManagedObjectContext init() { container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: "DataMama") container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: group identifier)!.appendingPathComponent("Trash.sqlite"))] container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (description, error) in if let error = error as NSError? { print("Unresolved error \(error), \(error.userInfo)") } }) context = container.viewContext context.automaticallyMergesChangesFromParent = true context.mergePolicy = NSMergePolicy(merge: .mergeByPropertyObjectTrumpMergePolicyType) } func save() { do { try container.viewContext.save() print("Saved successfully") } catch { print("Error in saving data: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } // ViewModel // import Foundation import CoreData import WidgetKit class ViewModel: ObservableObject { let manager = DataManager() @Published var records: [Little] = [] init() { fetchRecords() } func fetchRecords() { let request = NSFetchRequest<Little>(entityName: "Little") do { records = try manager.context.fetch(request) records.sort { lhs, rhs in lhs.trashDate! < rhs.trashDate! } } catch { print("Fetch error for DataManager: \(error.localizedDescription)") } WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() } } So I have a view model that fetches data for the app as shown above. Now, my question is how should my widget get data from CoreData? Should the widget get data from CoreData through DataManager? I have read some questions here and also read some articles around the world. This article ( https://dev.classmethod.jp/articles/widget-coredate-introduction/ ) suggests that you let the Widget struct access CoreData through DataManager. If that's a correct fashion, how should the getTimeline function in the TimelineProvider struct get data? This question also suggests the same. Thank you for your reading my question.

[Also submitted as FB19313064] The .disabled() modifier doesn't visually disable buttons inside a ToolbarItem container on iOS 26.0 (23A5297i) devices. The button looks enabled, but tapping it doesn't trigger the action. When deployment target is lowered to iOS 18 and deployed to an iOS 18 device, it works correctly. It still fails on an iOS 26 device, even with an iOS 18-targeted build. This occurs in both the Simulator and on a physical device. Screen Recording Code struct ContentView: View { @State private var isButtonDisabled = false private var osTitle: String { let version = ProcessInfo.processInfo.operatingSystemVersion return "iOS \(version.majorVersion)" } var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Button("Body Button") { print("Body button tapped") } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .disabled(isButtonDisabled) Toggle("Disable buttons", isOn: $isButtonDisabled) Spacer() } .padding() .navigationTitle("Device: \(osTitle)") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.large) .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Button("Toolbar") { print("Toolbar button tapped") } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .disabled(isButtonDisabled) } } } } }

The example code below shows what I am trying to achieve: When the user types a '*', it should be replaced with a '×'. It looks like it works, but the cursor position is corrupted, even though it looks OK, and the diagnostics that is printed below shows a valid index. If you type "12*34" you get "12×43" because the cursor is inserting before the shown cursor instead of after. How can I fix this? struct ContentView: View { @State private var input: String = "" @State private var selection: TextSelection? = nil var body: some View { VStack { TextField("Type 12*34", text: $input, selection: $selection) .onKeyPress(action: {keyPress in handleKeyPress(keyPress) }) Text("Selection: \(selectionAsString())") }.padding() } func handleKeyPress(_ keyPress: KeyPress) -> KeyPress.Result { if (keyPress.key.character == "*") { insertAtCursor(text: "×") moveCursor(offset: 1) return KeyPress.Result.handled } return KeyPress.Result.ignored } func moveCursor(offset: Int) { guard let selection else { return } if case let .selection(range) = selection.indices { print("Moving cursor from \(range.lowerBound)") let newIndex = input.index(range.lowerBound, offsetBy: offset, limitedBy: input.endIndex)! let newSelection : TextSelection.Indices = .selection(newIndex..<newIndex) if case let .selection(range) = newSelection { print("Moved to \(range.lowerBound)") } self.selection!.indices = newSelection } } func insertAtCursor(text: String) { guard let selection else { return } if case let .selection(range) = selection.indices { input.insert(contentsOf: text, at: range.lowerBound) } } func selectionAsString() -> String { guard let selection else { return "None" } switch selection.indices { case .selection(let range): if (range.lowerBound == range.upperBound) { return ("No selection, cursor at \(range.lowerBound)") } let lower = range.lowerBound.utf16Offset(in: input) let upper = range.upperBound.utf16Offset(in: input) return "\(lower) - \(upper)" case .multiSelection(let rangeSet): return "Multi selection \(rangeSet)" @unknown default: fatalError("Unknown selection") } } }
