Overview

The default style for a segmented picker in iOS 26 is now a capsule shape. Is it possible to get back the previous rounded rectangle shape? In SwiftUI I have tried using the clipShape, containerShape, and background modifiers, applying a RoundedRectangle shape with a corner radius, to no avail. In UIKit I have tried to adjust the corner configuration for the UISegmentedControl, also to no avail. Am I missing something really obvious or is it impossible to change the style here? 🤔

An issue with the CallKit UI, specifically regarding the functionality of the speaker button. When a user initiates a video call with CallKit and then, using the existing CallKit session, initiates an audio call, there are no issues with CallKit or the audio. However, if the user terminates the video call from the CallKit UI, the active CallKit session ends. To resume the ongoing audio call, we report a new CallKit call upon the end call trigger. While there are no issues with this reporting, the CallKit UI does not provide an audio route for the built-in receiver, and the speaker button remains unresponsive.

An app built on Xcode 26 (beta4) presents various UIViewCOntrollers. Presentation of any UIViewController that contains a UIToolbar leads to a UIKit crash when run on an iOS 18.5 device, it does not crash when run on iOS 26. The exception logged: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidUnarchiveOperationException', reason: 'Could not instantiate class named TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView because no class named TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView was found; the class needs to be defined in source code or linked in from a library (ensure the class is part of the correct target)' Anyone else seen this? I've submitted a bug report via Feedback Assistant, including a minimal Xcode workspace that reproduces the crash, hoping this will get some attention.

I was excited about the new APIs added to Network.framework in iOS 26 that offer structure concurrency support out of the box and a more modern API design in general. However I have been unable to use them to create a device-to-device QUIC connection. The blocker I ran into is that NetworkListener's run method requires the network protocol to conform to OneToOneProtocol, whereas QUIC conforms to MultiplexProtocol. And there doesn't seem to be any way to accept an incoming MultiplexProtocol connection? Nor does it seem possible to turn a UDP connection into a QUIC connection using NetworkConnection.prependProtocols() as that also only works for network protocols conforming to OneToOneProtocol. I suspect this is an accidental omission in the API design (?), and already filed a Feedback (FB18620438). But maybe I am missing something and there is a workaround or a different way to listen for incoming QUIC connections using the new NetworkListener? QUIC.TLS has methods peerAuthenticationRequired(Bool) and peerAuthenticationOptional(Bool), which makes me think that peer to peer QUIC connections are intended to be supported? I would also love to see documentation for those methods. For example I wonder what exact effect peerAuthenticationRequired(false) and peerAuthenticationOptional(false) would have and how they differ.

Hi, I am creating a Driving Behaviour Monitoring app in which I range beacons and I require location updates in foreground, background and in terminated state all the time. I am using CLServiceSession with "Always Authorisation" to get location events. I create CLServiceSession object in the foreground and start monitoring driving and then re-create it when the app is relaunched after termination. Doing this works fine. But sometimes when app is terminated and is not opened again, the app runs on its own even when the device is stationary ( I can see the app is using Location in the Control Centre) and after that Location updates are not received and I am not able to track the driving behaviour. I tried to add diagnostics to know the cause and found "Insufficiently In Use" and then "Service Session Required" in the diagnostics. It would be of great help if the proper usage of CLServiceSession is provided. Important Question: When does the CLServiceSession gets invalidated or destroyed that was created when the app was in foreground ? What happens to the CLServiceSession which was created in the foreground if the app is not opened for long duration, let's say a day or two?

Can someone please tell me which experimental WebKit feature would cause safari to keep timing out on certain sites with a lot of Java script due to heavy cpu drainage. I can provide analytics data if this helps.

We are a research team conducting a study collecting subject's SensorKit speech data, and we've encountered some questions we couldn't resolve ourselves or by looking up the online SensorKit documentation: Microphone Activation: In general, how is the microphone being turned on to capture a speech session? And how was each session determined to be an independent session? Negative Values: In the speech classification data, there are entries where some of the start and end values are negative (see screenshot below). How should we interpret and handle these values? Is it safe to filter them out? Duplicated sessions: From the same screenshot you can see there are multiple session identifiers linked to the same subject with the same timestamp - what does this represent? Another Negative Values: The same question for speech recognition data's average pause duration, what does the -1 mean and should we remove them as well? (Note that these screenshot got rid of subject IDs for privacy purposes but each screenshot was from one subject.) We greatly appreciate your time and help.

I am trying to upload an App Preview to App Store Connect for a iphone app,I created the preview as an "App Preview". When I try to upload the app preview I get the message " your app preview is too big". The preview is 30 sec. It is 6 MB in size. MP4 format. Who know how to change my app preview

I'm using the WebGPU abstraction library wgpu to build an app using compute shaders that compiles to Metal (on macOS), and in certain patterns where it uses a staging buffer for initial data, the data is just total missing from the capture, breaking other workflows such as shader debugging or seeing the completed results in the final buffer. I wrote up details including a repro project and screen shots of the issue at https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/8111 . Seems like an Xcode bug. Any ideas? I'm happy to help investigate further if I can.

Hello, I have a number of UIViewControllers that are presented as follows: vc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.popover vc.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyle.coverVertical self.present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil) The VC is designed from a Storyboard where I set the 'view' of the VC to have a .clear 'backgroundColor', I have a smaller 'Alert View' added as a subview which is what the user interacts with. In iOS 13 - iOS 18 this would present modally, not take up the entire screen and allow the user to see relevant context from the screen underneath. In iOS 26 Beta 5 and every beta prior the system injects a 'UIDropShadowView' in the View Hierarchy, this view has a solid color backdrop, either white/black depending on light/dark mode. This causes all underlying content to be blocked and essentially forces a full screen modal presentation despite the existing design. I am looking for a way to remove this solid color. I'm not sure if it's intentional or a bug / oversight. I have been able to remove it in a hacky way, I cycle the view hierarchy to find 'UIDropShadowView' and set it's backdrop to transparent. However when you swipe down to partially dismiss the view it turns to Liquid Glass when it is around 75% dismissed and then resets the background color to white/black. I tried creating a custom UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate so that I could re-implement the existing behaviour but it's incredibly difficult to mimic the partial dismiss swipe down effect on the VC. I have also tried changing my presentation to: vc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.overFullScreen vc.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyle.crossDissolve This works but then the user loses the ability to interactively swipe to dismiss. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

In iOS 26 the pitch of the sound of the keyboard clicks changes when you type faster. And the haptics have a more buttery feeling to them. Is this a bug and will be fixed. Or is this a new feature ?

Hello, I'm playing around with the FSKit API and I'm looking for programmatic ways to mount a file system backed by an FSKit extension. Currently, I could only find the new -F option in the mount command but I would prefer if I could avoid executing comman line tools. I checked the DiskArbitration framework but couldn't find anything specific for FSKit there. Thanks

Hi everyone, I’m working on implementing Live Activities in my app, and I’ve encountered an issue where the Live Activity updates work intermittently when the app is in the background. Sometimes they update correctly, but at other times, they don’t update at all, even though they should be running in the background. However, when the app is brought to the foreground, the updates happen correctly. A few things I’ve checked: The app is using ActivityKit to update the Live Activity with Activity.update(). I’ve enabled the necessary background modes in the Capabilities section. Is there a possibility that I’m hitting the system budget limit while experiencing this issue? If this is a limitation, how can I avoid it or manage this situation? Has anyone else faced this issue? Any advice or potential solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Take this piece of code for example: Menu { ... } label: { Image(systemName: "ellipsis.circle") .resizable() .foregroundStyle(Color.primary) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) .contentShape(.circle) .padding(.spacing8) .glassEffect(.regular.interactive(), in: .circle) } .tint(nil) When tapped, the interactive liquid glass effect expands in response, but the expanded glass is then clipped by the original bounds of the view. In this example, the button would briefly show up as a highlighted square due to the clipping. If I add enough padding around the Menu's label, the expanded glass effect is be able to show unclipped, but this feels like a hack. Is this a bug in the framework, or am I doing something wrong? I have submitted FB19801519 with screen recording and demo project.

Double-tap three fingers and drag to change zoom” should suppress “Three Finger to Drag”. Currently these gestures are triggered simultaneously, for no real reasons. I saw different behaviors for different environments, but none is desired. Current and desired behavior: This seems an issue so I filed a feedback.

Some users reported that their images are not loading correctly in our app. After a lot of debugging we identified the following: This only happens when the app is build for Mac Catalyst. Not on iOS, iPadOS, or “real” macOS (AppKit). The images in question have unusual color spaces. We observed the issue for uRGB and eciRGB v2. Those images are rendered correctly in Photos and Preview on all platforms. When displaying the image inside of a UIImageView or in a SwiftUI Image, they render correctly. The issue only occurs when loading the image via Core Image. When comparing the different Core Image render graphs between AppKit (working) and Catalyst (faulty) builds, they look identical—except for the result. Mac (AppKit): Catalyst: Something seems to be off when Core Image tries to load an image with foreign color space in Catalyst. We identified a workaround: By using a CGImageDestination to transcode the image using the kCGImageDestinationOptimizeColorForSharing option, Image I/O will convert the image to sRGB (or similar) and Core Image is able to load the image correctly. However, one potentially loses fidelity this way. Or might there be a better workaround?

Good day) Colleagues, please tell me how can I change the notification on the locked screen "pass changed" in PKPASS when changing several fields? Thank you very much for your answer

Now using Xcode 26 beta 6, and iOS/iPadOS 26 beta 7 - and I found the codes do not compiled with localized name. Since I have been buidling the codes since beta 1, the app might have localized name in the past. Even Localizable file is there with proper translation. I have however, started to build icon using Icon Composer (before that was not). I have also tried to add in CFBundleDisplayName and CFBundleName in Localizable file, and same (English is shown). What have I done wrong or forget to do?

After updating from iOS 18 to iOS 26, our app icon appears to have automatically received the new 'Liquid Glass' effect. We confirmed that this change occurred without us releasing a new app update. My questions are: Is this a system behavior where iOS 26 automatically applies the new icon style to existing apps? If so, is it possible for a developer to control or customize this effect? I am also wondering if there are any methods other than using Icon Composer.

As of right now Icon Composer does not support creating app icons for visionOS and tvOS. It appears that only system apps can provide glass icons for those platforms. How should developers handle this? In extreme cases, the flat icon on those platforms will look wildly different from their glass counterparts. From what I have seen visionOS and tvOS also do not apply any automatic treatment like on iOS where legacy icons get a glass effect. So, third party app icons are just going to look out of place for (hopefully just) a year on those platforms? What is the recommended approach here? You could obviously fake the effect, but I feel like that would be worse.
