High CPU Usage in SwiftUI UIHostingController on iOS 26 Beta
Experiencing 100% CPU usage in SwiftUI app using UIHostingController, only on iOS 26 beta and Xcode beta. Issue involves excessive view updates in AttributeGraph propagation.

Illegible navigation title when presenting Map view
When building with the iOS 26 SDK (currently beta 4), the navigation title is often illegible when rendering a Map view. For example, note how the title "Choose Location" is obscured by the map's text ("South America") in the screenshot below: This screenshot is the result of the following view code: import MapKit import SwiftUI struct Demo: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Map() .navigationTitle(Text("Choose Location")) .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } } } I tried using the scrollEdgeEffectStyle(_:for:) modifier to apply a scroll edge effect to the top of the screen, in hopes of making the title legible, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. Specifically, the following code seems to produce the exact same result shown in the screenshot above. import MapKit import SwiftUI struct Demo: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Map() .scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.hard, for: .top) // ⬅️ no apparent effect .navigationTitle(Text("Choose Location")) .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } } } Is there a recommended way to resolve this issue so that the navigation title is always readable?

Migrating SwiftUI lifecycle to UIKit's
Hi, everyone I have an app already in production that uses SwiftUI's lifecycle (paired with an AppDelegate). Due to some specific behaviour of the app, we decided to migrate the app to use UIKit's lifecycle, adding the corresponding SceneDelegate to the app, as well as modifying the Info.plist file accordingly to accommodate to these new changes. Although everything seems to work when installing the app from zero, when installing it on top of another version, the screen goes black and the user cannot interact with the app at all unless they reinstall it completely. As I've read online, iOS is reusing the window configuration from the previous execution of the app. I know this because the AppDelegate's application(application:connectingSceneSession:options) is not being called when coming from a previous version of the app. I would love to know what can I do to make this work because, as you may understand, we cannot ask our user base to reinstall the application. Thank you very much.

Set edge effect style in AppKit
In macOS 26 beta 2 it is possible to set an edge effect style via UIKit using the .scrollEdgeEffectStyle property. (note: I haven't tested this, I'm just looking at the documentation). See: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/scrolledgeeffectstyle(_:for:) Is there an equivalent API for AppKit-based apps? I can't seem to find any additions in NSView or NSScrollView or elsewhere that seem relevant. Scroll edge effects are mentioned in the "Build an AppKit app with the new design" talk here, which heavily implies it must be possible from AppKit: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/310/?time=567

SwitUI preview loads indefinitely
Hi! I develop an iOS library and I met an issue with SwiftUI previews in iOS app project with my library integrated. After I open preview, build for preview finishes successfully, but preview itself never appears. I failed to find any error messages or any other indicators of what went wrong or how to fix it. Switching to legacy preview execution seems to fix problem, but I think that is not ideal. Could you help fixing this? Xcode 16.2, Simulator iPhone 16, iOS 18.2 Project to reproduce - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cU6JKwshK_wQfe9YIqcMg3UGWq45OYlx/view?usp=sharing Preview diagnostics - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kPcgVSSqreiepGuqhdIoCW2rLSicgsWr/view?usp=sharing

Change to safe area logic on iOS 26
I have a few view controllers in a large UIKit application that previously started showing content right below the bottom of the top navigation toolbar. When testing the same code on iOS 26, these same views have their content extend under the navigation bar and toolbar. I was able to fix it with: if #available(iOS 26, *, *) { self.edgesForExtendedLayout = [.bottom] } when running on iOS 26. I also fixed one or two places where the main view was anchored to self.view.topAnchor instead of self.view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor. Although this seems to work, I wonder if this was an intended change in iOS 26 or just a temporary bug in the beta that will be resolved. Were changes made to the safe area and edgesForExtendedLayout logic in iOS 26? If so, is there a place I can see what the specific changes were, so I know my code is handling it properly? Thanks!

iOS 18.4.1 breaks SwiftUI's DocumentGroup?
In iOS 18.4.1, DocumentGroup contains the DocumentView twice. (this may cause issues with alerts) To reproduce (iOS 18.4): In XCode Version 16.3 (16E140), create new project. Choose iOS, "Document App". No need to make code changes. Compile and run app on iOS 18.4 (simulator or device). in iOS (sim or device): Tap create document (once the app launched). in XCode: click "Debug View Hierarchy" in XCode: rotate the view Hierarch to reveal duplicated Document View hierarchies (2 Document Hosting Controllers), see screenshot. This probably affects alert view... I get warnings and it does not work properly (used to work ok on previous versions). Previous versions To compare with previous versions of iOS, run the same code and procedure on iOS 18.3 for example (see screenshot). Will report on Feedback assistant as well...

iOS 26.1 PHPickerConfiguration.preselectedAssetIdentifiers doesn't select previous pictures in the PHPickerViewController
Hi, I faced with the issue on iOS 26.1 with PHPickerViewController. After first selection I save assetIdentifier of PHPickerResult for images. next time I open the picker I expect to have the images selected based on assetIdentifier Code: var config = PHPickerConfiguration(photoLibrary: .shared()) config.selectionLimit = 10 config.filter = .images config.preselectedAssetIdentifiers = images.compactMap(\.assetID) let picker = PHPickerViewController(configuration: config) picker.delegate = self present(picker, animated: true) But on iOS 26.1 they aren't selected. On lower iOS version all works fine. Does anybody faced with similar issue?

ScrollView + LazyVStack + dynamic height views cause scroll glitches on iOS 26
I’m seeing unexpected scroll behavior when embedding a LazyVStack with dynamically sized views inside a ScrollView. Everything works fine when the item height is fixed (e.g. colored squares), but when I switch to text views with variable height, the scroll position jumps and glitches—especially when the keyboard appears or disappears. This only happens on iOS 26, it works fine on iOS 18. Working version struct Model: Identifiable { let id = UUID() } struct ModernScrollView: View { @State private var models: [Model] = [] @State private var scrollPositionID: String? @State private var text: String = "" @FocusState private var isFocused // MARK: - View var body: some View { scrollView .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { controls } .task { reset() } } // MARK: - Subviews private var scrollView: some View { ScrollView { LazyVStack { ForEach(models) { model in SquareView(color: Color(from: model.id)) .id(model.id.uuidString) } } .scrollTargetLayout() } .scrollPosition(id: $scrollPositionID) .scrollDismissesKeyboard(.interactively) .defaultScrollAnchor(.bottom) .onTapGesture { isFocused = false } } private var controls: some View { VStack { HStack { Button("Add to top") { models.insert(contentsOf: makeModels(3), at: 0) } Button("Add to bottom") { models.append(contentsOf: makeModels(3)) } Button("Reset") { reset() } } HStack { Button { scrollPositionID = models.first?.id.uuidString } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.up") } Button { scrollPositionID = models.last?.id.uuidString } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.down") } } TextField("Input", text: $text) .padding() .background(.ultraThinMaterial, in: .capsule) .focused($isFocused) .padding(.horizontal) } .padding(.vertical) .buttonStyle(.bordered) .background(.regularMaterial) } // MARK: - Private private func makeModels(_ count: Int) -> [Model] { (0..<count).map { _ in Model() } } private func reset() { models = makeModels(3) } } // MARK: - Color+UUID private extension Color { init(from uuid: UUID) { let hash = uuid.uuidString.hashValue let r = Double((hash & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0 let g = Double((hash & 0x00FF00) >> 8) / 255.0 let b = Double(hash & 0x0000FF) / 255.0 self.init(red: abs(r), green: abs(g), blue: abs(b)) } } Not working version When I replace the square view with a text view that generates random multiline text: struct Model: Identifiable { let id = UUID() let text = generateRandomText(range: 1...5) // MARK: - Utils private static func generateRandomText(range: ClosedRange<Int>) -> String { var result = "" for _ in 0..<Int.random(in: range) { if let sentence = sentences.randomElement() { result += sentence } } return result.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespaces) } private static let sentences = [ "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.", "Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.", "Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.", "Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum." ] } and use it like this: ForEach(models) { model in Text(model.text) .padding() .multilineTextAlignment(.leading) .background(Color(from: model.id)) .id(model.id.uuidString) } Then on iOS 26, opening the keyboard makes the scroll position jump unpredictably. It is more visible if you play with the app, but I could not upload a video here. Environment Xcode 26.0.1 - Simulators and devices on iOS 26.0 - 18.0 Questions Is there any known change in ScrollView / scrollPosition(id:) behavior on iOS 26 related to dynamic height content? Am I missing something in the layout setup that makes this layout unstable with variable-height cells? Is there a workaround or recommended approach for keeping scroll position stable when keyboard appears?

SwiftUI state is maddening
I honestly thought I was getting somewhere with this, but alas, no. Every time I do anything in my List of ItemRows it jumps back to the top. Here's the setup: DataService.swift: final class DataService { static let shared = DataService() private init() {} let coreData: CoreData = CoreData() let modelData: ModelData = ModelData() } ModelData.swift: @Observable class ModelData: ObservableObject { var allItems: [ItemDetails] var standardItems: [ItemDetails] var archivedItems: [ItemDetails] init() { allItems = [] standardItems = [] archivedItems = [] } func getInitialData() { // Get all items, then split them into archived and non-archived sets, because you can't use `.filter` in a view... allItems = dataService.coreData.getAllItems() standardItems.append(contentsOf: allItems.filter { !$0.archived }) archivedItems.append(contentsOf: allItems.filter { $0.archived }) } } MainApp.swift: // Get access to the data; this singleton is a global as non-view-based functions, including the `Scene`, need to access the model data let dataService: DataService = DataService.shared @main struct MainApp: App { // Should this be @ObservedObject or @StateObject? @ObservedObject private var modelData: ModelData = dataService.modelData // I would use @StateObject if the line was... //@StateObject private var modelData: ModelData = ModelData() // right? // But then I couldn't use modelData outside of the view hierarchy var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ZStack { MainView() .environment(modelData) } } .onAppear { modelData.getInitialData() } } } MainView.swift: struct MainView: View { @Environment(ModelData.self) private var modelData: ModelData var body: some View { ... ForEach(modelData.standardItems) { item in ItemRow(item) } ForEach(modelData.archivedItems) { item in ItemRow(item) } } } ItemRow.swift: struct ItemRow: View { @Environment(\.accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor) private var accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor var item: ItemDetails @State private var showDeleteConfirmation: Bool = false var body: some View { // Construct the row view // `accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor` is used within the row to change colours if DWC is enabled, e.g. use different symbols instead of different colours for button images. // Add the .leftSwipeButtons, .rightSwipeButtons, and .contextMenu // Add the .confirmationDialog for when I want to ask for confirmation before deleting an item } } Now, the problems: Swipe an item row, tap one of the buttons, e.g. edit, and the list refreshes and jumps back to the top. In the console I see: ItemRow: @self, @identity, _accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor changed. Why did accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor change? The setting in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size has not been changed, so why does the row's view think it changed? With a .confirmationDialog attached to the end of the ItemRow (as seen in the code above), if I swipe and tap the delete button the list refreshes and jumps back to the top again. In the console I see: ItemRow: @self, @identity, _accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor, _showDeleteConfirmation changed. Right, it changed for the one row that I tapped the button for. Why does every row get redrawn? I already had to shift from using the colorScheme environment variable to add new asset colours with light and dark variants to cover this, but you can't do that with DWC. Honestly, managing state in SwiftUI is a nightmare. I had zero problems until iOS 26 started removing one or two rows when I scrolled, and the fix for that - using @Statebject/@ObservedObject - has introduced multiple further annoying, mind-bending problems, and necessitated massive daily refactorings. And, of course, plenty of my time islost trying to figure out where a problem is in the code because "The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions"...

Navigation title in master splitview panel wrong colour with dark mode and hard scrollEdgeEffect
The navigation title color is wrong (dark on dark background) when applying hard scrolledgeeffectstyle. Illustrated by code example. In simulator or physical device. Changing scrollEdgeEffectStyle to soft resolves the issue. As does changing the listStyle. @main struct AppView: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { NavigationSplitView { NavigationStack { Section { NavigationLink(destination: OptionsView()) { Label("More Options", systemImage: "gearshape") } .isDetailLink(false) } header: { Text("WITH OPTIONS").bold() } .navigationTitle("TESTING") } } detail: { Text("DETAIL") } .preferredColorScheme(.dark) } } } struct OptionsView: View { var body: some View { List { Text("List Item") } .listStyle(.plain) .navigationTitle("MORE OPTIONS TITLE") .scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.hard, for: .all) } } Submittted FB20811402 Bug appears in Landscape mode for iPhone only. Any orientation for iPad.

Show main window of SwiftUI app on macOS Sequoia after auto start
It seems like it is no longer possible to open the main window of an app after the app has been launched by the system if the "Auto Start" functionality has been enabled. I am using SMAppService.mainApp to enable to auto start of my app. It is shown in the macOS system settings and the app is automatically started - but the main window is not visible. How can I change this behaviour so the main window of the app is always visible when started automatically? I have not noticed this behaviour before the release of macOS Sequoia. My app is using Swift 6 and the latest version of macOS and Xcode. Regards

ASAuthorizationAccountCreationProvider does not work with 3rd party apps
hello im using the new IOS 26 api for passkey creation ASAuthorizationAccountCreationProvider however it only seems to work with apple's Passwords app. Selecting 3rd party password apps (1Password, google chrome, etc) does not create the passkey. The sign up sheet gives me the option to save in 3rd party apps, but when I select a 3rd party app, I just get the ASAuthorizationError cancelled error? So I dont even know what the problem is? When selecting "Save in Passwords(apple's app)" during the sign up it works fine Has anyone else run into this issue? Is there something I need to do enable 3rd party apps?

Bug: SwiftUI inspector doesn't update presentation detent selection on iPhone
On iPhone .inspector is presented as a sheet so you can use .presentationDetents to determine its detents. However, SwiftUI doesn't update the presentationDetents selection binding in this case. See attached minimum example of the problem - onChange will not run and print when you swipe and change the detent of the inspector sheet. import SwiftUI @main struct TestingApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var showInspector = false @State var detent: PresentationDetent = .medium var body: some View { Button("Toggle Inspector") { showInspector.toggle() } .inspector(isPresented: $showInspector) { Text("Inspector Content") .presentationDetents([.medium, .large], selection: $detent) } .onChange(of: detent) { _, detent in print(detent) } } } #Preview { ContentView() }

iPadOS 26 - Status bar overlaps with navigation bar
Hello, I'm experiencing a navigation bar positioning issue with my UIKit iPad app on iPadOS 26 (23A340) using Xcode 26 (17A321). The navigation bar positions under the status bar initially, and after orientation changes to landscape, it positions incorrectly below its expected location. This occurs on both real device (iPad mini A17 Pro) and simulator. My app uses UIKit + Storyboard with a Root Navigation Controller. A stack overflow post has reproduce the bug event if it's not in the same configuration: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79752945/xcode-26-beta-6-ipados-26-statusbar-overlaps-with-navigationbar-after-presen I have checked all safe areas and tried changing some constraints, but nothing works. Have you encountered this bug before, or do you need additional information to investigate this issue?

I don't want black background in presented sheet
I want a different color, one from my asset catalog, as the background of my first ever swift UI view (and, well, swift, the rest of the app is still obj.c) I've tried putting the color everywhere, but it does't take. I tried with just .red, too to make sure it wasn't me. Does anyone know where I can put a color call that will actually run? Black looks very out of place in my happy app. I spent a lot of time making a custom dark palette. TIA KT @State private var viewModel = ViewModel() @State private var showAddSheet = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.myCuteBg .ignoresSafeArea(.all) NavigationStack { content .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) { Image("cute.image") .font(.system(size: 30)) .foregroundColor(.beigeTitle) } } } .background(Color.myCuteBg) .presentationBackground(.myCuteBg) .sheet(isPresented: $showAddSheet) { AddView() } .environment(viewModel) .onAppear { viewModel.fetchStuff() } } .tint(.cuteColor) } @ViewBuilder var content: some View { if viewModel.list.isEmpty && viewModel.anotherlist.isEmpty { ContentUnavailableView( "No Content", image: "stop", description: Text("Add something here by tapping the + button.") ) } else { contentList } } var contentList: some View { blah blah blah } } First I tried the background, then the presentation background, and finally the Zstack. I hope this is fixed because it's actually fun to build scrollable content and text with swiftUI and I'd been avoiding it for years.

App Clip Custom URL not Invoking Clip
Subject: Need Assistance with App Clip Invocation via URL Hello Developers, I’m currently facing an issue with invoking my App Clip through a URL, specifically when the link is shared via iMessage or Email. Instead of launching the App Clip, the URL redirects to the website. Here’s my current configuration: Approved App with an App Clip Universal Links functioning correctly within the App (verified through AASA file hosted on the website) Associated Domain Entitlements included for both the App and the App Clip Universal Link is expected to invoke the App Clip if the App isn’t installed Advanced Experience configured in App Store Connect The default experience URL from App Store Connect successfully triggers the App Clip, but my custom URL does not. I suspect I might be missing a crucial configuration step. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have suggestions on what else I should verify? Thank you in advance for your help!

Menu presentation in UIHostingController issues
Looking to see if anyone has experienced this issue, and is aware of any workarounds. With an app migrating towards SwiftUI Views but still using UIKit for primary navigation, my app makes use of UIHostingController to push SwiftUI Views onto a UINavigationController stack in a lot of areas. With iOS 26, I notice that SwiftUI's Menu view really struggles to present when contained in a UIHostingController. An error is logged to the console on presentation, and depending on the UI, the Menu won't present inside of it's container, or will jump around the screen. The bug, it seems is based in a private class UIReparentingView and I am curious if anyone has found a work around for this issue. The error reported is: Adding '_UIReparentingView' as a subview of UIHostingController.view is not supported and may result in a broken view hierarchy. Add your view above UIHostingController.view in a common superview or insert it into your SwiftUI content in a UIViewRepresentable instead. The simplest way to see this issue is to create a new storyboard based project. From the ViewController present a UIHostingController with a SwiftUI view that has a Menu and then simply tap to open the Menu. Thanks for any input!

Illegible navigation title when presenting Map view
When building with the iOS 26 SDK (currently beta 4), the navigation title is often illegible when rendering a Map view. For example, note how the title "Choose Location" is obscured by the map's text ("South America") in the screenshot below: This screenshot is the result of the following view code: import MapKit import SwiftUI struct Demo: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Map() .navigationTitle(Text("Choose Location")) .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } } } I tried using the scrollEdgeEffectStyle(_:for:) modifier to apply a scroll edge effect to the top of the screen, in hopes of making the title legible, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. Specifically, the following code seems to produce the exact same result shown in the screenshot above. import MapKit import SwiftUI struct Demo: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Map() .scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.hard, for: .top) // ⬅️ no apparent effect .navigationTitle(Text("Choose Location")) .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } } } Is there a recommended way to resolve this issue so that the navigation title is always readable?

Migrating SwiftUI lifecycle to UIKit's
Hi, everyone I have an app already in production that uses SwiftUI's lifecycle (paired with an AppDelegate). Due to some specific behaviour of the app, we decided to migrate the app to use UIKit's lifecycle, adding the corresponding SceneDelegate to the app, as well as modifying the Info.plist file accordingly to accommodate to these new changes. Although everything seems to work when installing the app from zero, when installing it on top of another version, the screen goes black and the user cannot interact with the app at all unless they reinstall it completely. As I've read online, iOS is reusing the window configuration from the previous execution of the app. I know this because the AppDelegate's application(application:connectingSceneSession:options) is not being called when coming from a previous version of the app. I would love to know what can I do to make this work because, as you may understand, we cannot ask our user base to reinstall the application. Thank you very much.

Set edge effect style in AppKit
In macOS 26 beta 2 it is possible to set an edge effect style via UIKit using the .scrollEdgeEffectStyle property. (note: I haven't tested this, I'm just looking at the documentation). See: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/scrolledgeeffectstyle(_:for:) Is there an equivalent API for AppKit-based apps? I can't seem to find any additions in NSView or NSScrollView or elsewhere that seem relevant. Scroll edge effects are mentioned in the "Build an AppKit app with the new design" talk here, which heavily implies it must be possible from AppKit: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/310/?time=567

SwitUI preview loads indefinitely
Hi! I develop an iOS library and I met an issue with SwiftUI previews in iOS app project with my library integrated. After I open preview, build for preview finishes successfully, but preview itself never appears. I failed to find any error messages or any other indicators of what went wrong or how to fix it. Switching to legacy preview execution seems to fix problem, but I think that is not ideal. Could you help fixing this? Xcode 16.2, Simulator iPhone 16, iOS 18.2 Project to reproduce - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cU6JKwshK_wQfe9YIqcMg3UGWq45OYlx/view?usp=sharing Preview diagnostics - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kPcgVSSqreiepGuqhdIoCW2rLSicgsWr/view?usp=sharing

Change to safe area logic on iOS 26
I have a few view controllers in a large UIKit application that previously started showing content right below the bottom of the top navigation toolbar. When testing the same code on iOS 26, these same views have their content extend under the navigation bar and toolbar. I was able to fix it with: if #available(iOS 26, *, *) { self.edgesForExtendedLayout = [.bottom] } when running on iOS 26. I also fixed one or two places where the main view was anchored to self.view.topAnchor instead of self.view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor. Although this seems to work, I wonder if this was an intended change in iOS 26 or just a temporary bug in the beta that will be resolved. Were changes made to the safe area and edgesForExtendedLayout logic in iOS 26? If so, is there a place I can see what the specific changes were, so I know my code is handling it properly? Thanks!

iOS 18.4.1 breaks SwiftUI's DocumentGroup?
In iOS 18.4.1, DocumentGroup contains the DocumentView twice. (this may cause issues with alerts) To reproduce (iOS 18.4): In XCode Version 16.3 (16E140), create new project. Choose iOS, "Document App". No need to make code changes. Compile and run app on iOS 18.4 (simulator or device). in iOS (sim or device): Tap create document (once the app launched). in XCode: click "Debug View Hierarchy" in XCode: rotate the view Hierarch to reveal duplicated Document View hierarchies (2 Document Hosting Controllers), see screenshot. This probably affects alert view... I get warnings and it does not work properly (used to work ok on previous versions). Previous versions To compare with previous versions of iOS, run the same code and procedure on iOS 18.3 for example (see screenshot). Will report on Feedback assistant as well...

iOS 26.1 PHPickerConfiguration.preselectedAssetIdentifiers doesn't select previous pictures in the PHPickerViewController
Hi, I faced with the issue on iOS 26.1 with PHPickerViewController. After first selection I save assetIdentifier of PHPickerResult for images. next time I open the picker I expect to have the images selected based on assetIdentifier Code: var config = PHPickerConfiguration(photoLibrary: .shared()) config.selectionLimit = 10 config.filter = .images config.preselectedAssetIdentifiers = images.compactMap(\.assetID) let picker = PHPickerViewController(configuration: config) picker.delegate = self present(picker, animated: true) But on iOS 26.1 they aren't selected. On lower iOS version all works fine. Does anybody faced with similar issue?

ScrollView + LazyVStack + dynamic height views cause scroll glitches on iOS 26
I’m seeing unexpected scroll behavior when embedding a LazyVStack with dynamically sized views inside a ScrollView. Everything works fine when the item height is fixed (e.g. colored squares), but when I switch to text views with variable height, the scroll position jumps and glitches—especially when the keyboard appears or disappears. This only happens on iOS 26, it works fine on iOS 18. Working version struct Model: Identifiable { let id = UUID() } struct ModernScrollView: View { @State private var models: [Model] = [] @State private var scrollPositionID: String? @State private var text: String = "" @FocusState private var isFocused // MARK: - View var body: some View { scrollView .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { controls } .task { reset() } } // MARK: - Subviews private var scrollView: some View { ScrollView { LazyVStack { ForEach(models) { model in SquareView(color: Color(from: model.id)) .id(model.id.uuidString) } } .scrollTargetLayout() } .scrollPosition(id: $scrollPositionID) .scrollDismissesKeyboard(.interactively) .defaultScrollAnchor(.bottom) .onTapGesture { isFocused = false } } private var controls: some View { VStack { HStack { Button("Add to top") { models.insert(contentsOf: makeModels(3), at: 0) } Button("Add to bottom") { models.append(contentsOf: makeModels(3)) } Button("Reset") { reset() } } HStack { Button { scrollPositionID = models.first?.id.uuidString } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.up") } Button { scrollPositionID = models.last?.id.uuidString } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.down") } } TextField("Input", text: $text) .padding() .background(.ultraThinMaterial, in: .capsule) .focused($isFocused) .padding(.horizontal) } .padding(.vertical) .buttonStyle(.bordered) .background(.regularMaterial) } // MARK: - Private private func makeModels(_ count: Int) -> [Model] { (0..<count).map { _ in Model() } } private func reset() { models = makeModels(3) } } // MARK: - Color+UUID private extension Color { init(from uuid: UUID) { let hash = uuid.uuidString.hashValue let r = Double((hash & 0xFF0000) >> 16) / 255.0 let g = Double((hash & 0x00FF00) >> 8) / 255.0 let b = Double(hash & 0x0000FF) / 255.0 self.init(red: abs(r), green: abs(g), blue: abs(b)) } } Not working version When I replace the square view with a text view that generates random multiline text: struct Model: Identifiable { let id = UUID() let text = generateRandomText(range: 1...5) // MARK: - Utils private static func generateRandomText(range: ClosedRange<Int>) -> String { var result = "" for _ in 0..<Int.random(in: range) { if let sentence = sentences.randomElement() { result += sentence } } return result.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespaces) } private static let sentences = [ "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.", "Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.", "Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.", "Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum." ] } and use it like this: ForEach(models) { model in Text(model.text) .padding() .multilineTextAlignment(.leading) .background(Color(from: model.id)) .id(model.id.uuidString) } Then on iOS 26, opening the keyboard makes the scroll position jump unpredictably. It is more visible if you play with the app, but I could not upload a video here. Environment Xcode 26.0.1 - Simulators and devices on iOS 26.0 - 18.0 Questions Is there any known change in ScrollView / scrollPosition(id:) behavior on iOS 26 related to dynamic height content? Am I missing something in the layout setup that makes this layout unstable with variable-height cells? Is there a workaround or recommended approach for keeping scroll position stable when keyboard appears?

SwiftUI state is maddening
I honestly thought I was getting somewhere with this, but alas, no. Every time I do anything in my List of ItemRows it jumps back to the top. Here's the setup: DataService.swift: final class DataService { static let shared = DataService() private init() {} let coreData: CoreData = CoreData() let modelData: ModelData = ModelData() } ModelData.swift: @Observable class ModelData: ObservableObject { var allItems: [ItemDetails] var standardItems: [ItemDetails] var archivedItems: [ItemDetails] init() { allItems = [] standardItems = [] archivedItems = [] } func getInitialData() { // Get all items, then split them into archived and non-archived sets, because you can't use `.filter` in a view... allItems = dataService.coreData.getAllItems() standardItems.append(contentsOf: allItems.filter { !$0.archived }) archivedItems.append(contentsOf: allItems.filter { $0.archived }) } } MainApp.swift: // Get access to the data; this singleton is a global as non-view-based functions, including the `Scene`, need to access the model data let dataService: DataService = DataService.shared @main struct MainApp: App { // Should this be @ObservedObject or @StateObject? @ObservedObject private var modelData: ModelData = dataService.modelData // I would use @StateObject if the line was... //@StateObject private var modelData: ModelData = ModelData() // right? // But then I couldn't use modelData outside of the view hierarchy var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ZStack { MainView() .environment(modelData) } } .onAppear { modelData.getInitialData() } } } MainView.swift: struct MainView: View { @Environment(ModelData.self) private var modelData: ModelData var body: some View { ... ForEach(modelData.standardItems) { item in ItemRow(item) } ForEach(modelData.archivedItems) { item in ItemRow(item) } } } ItemRow.swift: struct ItemRow: View { @Environment(\.accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor) private var accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor var item: ItemDetails @State private var showDeleteConfirmation: Bool = false var body: some View { // Construct the row view // `accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor` is used within the row to change colours if DWC is enabled, e.g. use different symbols instead of different colours for button images. // Add the .leftSwipeButtons, .rightSwipeButtons, and .contextMenu // Add the .confirmationDialog for when I want to ask for confirmation before deleting an item } } Now, the problems: Swipe an item row, tap one of the buttons, e.g. edit, and the list refreshes and jumps back to the top. In the console I see: ItemRow: @self, @identity, _accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor changed. Why did accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor change? The setting in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size has not been changed, so why does the row's view think it changed? With a .confirmationDialog attached to the end of the ItemRow (as seen in the code above), if I swipe and tap the delete button the list refreshes and jumps back to the top again. In the console I see: ItemRow: @self, @identity, _accessibilityDifferentiateWithoutColor, _showDeleteConfirmation changed. Right, it changed for the one row that I tapped the button for. Why does every row get redrawn? I already had to shift from using the colorScheme environment variable to add new asset colours with light and dark variants to cover this, but you can't do that with DWC. Honestly, managing state in SwiftUI is a nightmare. I had zero problems until iOS 26 started removing one or two rows when I scrolled, and the fix for that - using @Statebject/@ObservedObject - has introduced multiple further annoying, mind-bending problems, and necessitated massive daily refactorings. And, of course, plenty of my time islost trying to figure out where a problem is in the code because "The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions"...

Navigation title in master splitview panel wrong colour with dark mode and hard scrollEdgeEffect
The navigation title color is wrong (dark on dark background) when applying hard scrolledgeeffectstyle. Illustrated by code example. In simulator or physical device. Changing scrollEdgeEffectStyle to soft resolves the issue. As does changing the listStyle. @main struct AppView: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { NavigationSplitView { NavigationStack { Section { NavigationLink(destination: OptionsView()) { Label("More Options", systemImage: "gearshape") } .isDetailLink(false) } header: { Text("WITH OPTIONS").bold() } .navigationTitle("TESTING") } } detail: { Text("DETAIL") } .preferredColorScheme(.dark) } } } struct OptionsView: View { var body: some View { List { Text("List Item") } .listStyle(.plain) .navigationTitle("MORE OPTIONS TITLE") .scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.hard, for: .all) } } Submittted FB20811402 Bug appears in Landscape mode for iPhone only. Any orientation for iPad.

Show main window of SwiftUI app on macOS Sequoia after auto start
It seems like it is no longer possible to open the main window of an app after the app has been launched by the system if the "Auto Start" functionality has been enabled. I am using SMAppService.mainApp to enable to auto start of my app. It is shown in the macOS system settings and the app is automatically started - but the main window is not visible. How can I change this behaviour so the main window of the app is always visible when started automatically? I have not noticed this behaviour before the release of macOS Sequoia. My app is using Swift 6 and the latest version of macOS and Xcode. Regards

ASAuthorizationAccountCreationProvider does not work with 3rd party apps
hello im using the new IOS 26 api for passkey creation ASAuthorizationAccountCreationProvider however it only seems to work with apple's Passwords app. Selecting 3rd party password apps (1Password, google chrome, etc) does not create the passkey. The sign up sheet gives me the option to save in 3rd party apps, but when I select a 3rd party app, I just get the ASAuthorizationError cancelled error? So I dont even know what the problem is? When selecting "Save in Passwords(apple's app)" during the sign up it works fine Has anyone else run into this issue? Is there something I need to do enable 3rd party apps?

Bug: SwiftUI inspector doesn't update presentation detent selection on iPhone
On iPhone .inspector is presented as a sheet so you can use .presentationDetents to determine its detents. However, SwiftUI doesn't update the presentationDetents selection binding in this case. See attached minimum example of the problem - onChange will not run and print when you swipe and change the detent of the inspector sheet. import SwiftUI @main struct TestingApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var showInspector = false @State var detent: PresentationDetent = .medium var body: some View { Button("Toggle Inspector") { showInspector.toggle() } .inspector(isPresented: $showInspector) { Text("Inspector Content") .presentationDetents([.medium, .large], selection: $detent) } .onChange(of: detent) { _, detent in print(detent) } } } #Preview { ContentView() }

iPadOS 26 - Status bar overlaps with navigation bar
Hello, I'm experiencing a navigation bar positioning issue with my UIKit iPad app on iPadOS 26 (23A340) using Xcode 26 (17A321). The navigation bar positions under the status bar initially, and after orientation changes to landscape, it positions incorrectly below its expected location. This occurs on both real device (iPad mini A17 Pro) and simulator. My app uses UIKit + Storyboard with a Root Navigation Controller. A stack overflow post has reproduce the bug event if it's not in the same configuration: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79752945/xcode-26-beta-6-ipados-26-statusbar-overlaps-with-navigationbar-after-presen I have checked all safe areas and tried changing some constraints, but nothing works. Have you encountered this bug before, or do you need additional information to investigate this issue?

I don't want black background in presented sheet
I want a different color, one from my asset catalog, as the background of my first ever swift UI view (and, well, swift, the rest of the app is still obj.c) I've tried putting the color everywhere, but it does't take. I tried with just .red, too to make sure it wasn't me. Does anyone know where I can put a color call that will actually run? Black looks very out of place in my happy app. I spent a lot of time making a custom dark palette. TIA KT @State private var viewModel = ViewModel() @State private var showAddSheet = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.myCuteBg .ignoresSafeArea(.all) NavigationStack { content .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) { Image("cute.image") .font(.system(size: 30)) .foregroundColor(.beigeTitle) } } } .background(Color.myCuteBg) .presentationBackground(.myCuteBg) .sheet(isPresented: $showAddSheet) { AddView() } .environment(viewModel) .onAppear { viewModel.fetchStuff() } } .tint(.cuteColor) } @ViewBuilder var content: some View { if viewModel.list.isEmpty && viewModel.anotherlist.isEmpty { ContentUnavailableView( "No Content", image: "stop", description: Text("Add something here by tapping the + button.") ) } else { contentList } } var contentList: some View { blah blah blah } } First I tried the background, then the presentation background, and finally the Zstack. I hope this is fixed because it's actually fun to build scrollable content and text with swiftUI and I'd been avoiding it for years.

App Clip Custom URL not Invoking Clip
Subject: Need Assistance with App Clip Invocation via URL Hello Developers, I’m currently facing an issue with invoking my App Clip through a URL, specifically when the link is shared via iMessage or Email. Instead of launching the App Clip, the URL redirects to the website. Here’s my current configuration: Approved App with an App Clip Universal Links functioning correctly within the App (verified through AASA file hosted on the website) Associated Domain Entitlements included for both the App and the App Clip Universal Link is expected to invoke the App Clip if the App isn’t installed Advanced Experience configured in App Store Connect The default experience URL from App Store Connect successfully triggers the App Clip, but my custom URL does not. I suspect I might be missing a crucial configuration step. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have suggestions on what else I should verify? Thank you in advance for your help!

With an app migrating towards SwiftUI Views but still using UIKit for primary navigation, my app makes use of UIHostingController to push SwiftUI Views onto a UINavigationController stack in a lot of areas. With iOS 26, I notice that SwiftUI's Menu view really struggles to present when contained in a UIHostingController. An error is logged to the console on presentation, and depending on the UI, the Menu won't present inside of it's container, or will jump around the screen. The bug, it seems is based in a private class UIReparentingView and I am curious if anyone has found a work around for this issue. The error reported is: Adding '_UIReparentingView' as a subview of UIHostingController.view is not supported and may result in a broken view hierarchy. Add your view above UIHostingController.view in a common superview or insert it into your SwiftUI content in a UIViewRepresentable instead. The simplest way to see this issue is to create a new storyboard based project. From the ViewController present a UIHostingController with a SwiftUI view that has a Menu and then simply tap to open the Menu. Thanks for any input!
