Overview

I'm using one UITabBarController which leads to 6 NavigationController. Therefore the user will get 4 icons displayed and one icon with three points to see the rest of the Navigation Controller. If the user now tries to edit the list and moves one item from the hidden area towards the TabBar at the bottom, the App crashes with the error: Exception NSException * "Can't add self as subview" 0x0000600000d16040 I can see this effect at least on both my apps. If the same compilation is run on a older iOS version, there is no crash. Is there anything I have to take care of the configuration of the TabBar, when it comes to iOS26?

Our app uses a 24-hour DeviceActivityMonitor repeating schedule to send users notifications for every hour of screen time they spend on their phone per day. Notifications are sent from eventDidReachThreshold callbacks at 1, 2, 3, etc, hour thresholds to keep them aware of their screen time. We have recently received an influx of emails from our users that after updating to iOS 17.6.1 their DeviceActivityMonitor notifications are saying their screen time was much higher than what is shown in DeviceActivityReport and their device's Screen Time settings. These users have disabled "Share Across Devices" - but I suspect the DeviceActivityMonitor is still getting screen time from their other devices even though that setting is turned off. Has anybody else noticed this, understands what is causing this, or could recommend a fix that we can tell our users to do?

My app is a SwiftUI document based app using DocumentGroupLaunchScene. In iOS(iPadOS) 18.4, when it launches, it has duplicate toolbar items, and when I close the current document and open other documents, it adds more duplicates. It also shows a wrong document name, which shows the first opened document name. This issue can be reproduced in the sample code (Building a document-based app with SwiftUI). I have submitted Feedback (FB17025216), but not sure if this is a known bug or if I'm missing anything.

Hello, I am having a recurring issue using Swift Playgrounds version 4.6.4 on macOS 26.1. Upon opening a file and every other time I start typing in the code section I get a prompt, the image below, two or three times. It doesn't matter if I accept or decline all or some of the prompts, as soon as I start typing on another line I get prompted another two or three times for permission. It appears to me that prompt generates every time the preview pane tries to update. Declining the prompt breaks the preview but accepting the prompt only gets you through a single line of code before it appears again. I believe this issue started after I updated to macOS26.1 as I had not encountered it before. I've also opened other files with Swift Playgrounds and encounter the same problem. It could also be unrelated to the update and could be an issue with some permission setting somewhere, however, I have been unable to find what or where it could be. Is anyone else experiencing this? Thank you for your time :)

I got message in "AppStore connect" saying that there is a new version of the new version of the agrrement (Your Paid Applications agreement has a new version)When clicking on the "Agree" button for the renew for the Paid app agreement i get an error message saying there is a problem, but not what problem,. This is the error message. "We are currently unable to process your request. Please try again later."Ive gottten this message for several weeksl I have been trying different versions, with the same result. I even tried to send a support case to apple, but the request has been unanswered for 3.5 weeks now. I diont know what to do..

I got a mail telling me developers need to update the age rating for all of their apps. I checked the documentation in the help section, but it seems there is no edit button at the top of the App Information section, nor a way to edit the age questionnaire. Do developers really need to create a new version of all of their apps just to answer 3 new questions on that form? *I'm not sure if I can even edit after uploading a new version as I haven't tried. Please fix it to be editable or update the information in the help section. It is also confusing. It says "Action required" in the mail, but App Store Connect notifications seem to suggest Apple will automatically adjust the rating themselves if I do nothing, and doing nothing is fine.

I am using the sample app from: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/277/?time=763 I installed this on an Iphone 15 Pro with iOS 26 beta 1. I was able to get good transcription with it. The app did crash sometimes when transcribing and I was going to post here with the details. I then installed iOS beta 2 and uninstalled the sample app. Now every time I try to run the sample app on the 15 Pro I get this message: SpeechAnalyzer: Input loop ending with error: Error Domain=SFSpeechErrorDomain Code=10 "Cannot use modules with unallocated locales [en_US (fixed en_US)]" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot use modules with unallocated locales [en_US (fixed en_US)]} I can't continue our our work towards using SpeechAnalyzer now with this error. I have set breakpoints on all the catch handlers and it doesn't catch this error. My phone region is "United States"

On iOS 18.0+ simulators, tap any share link button from any app, select "Save to Files", the "Save" button is disabled. In all previous simulator versions this works. This behavior even happens with default Apple apps like Photos. Simulator: Version 16.0 (1037) XCode: Version 16.1 beta (16B5001e) macOS: 14.6.1 (23G93)

I am using SwiftData for my model. Until Xcode 15 beta 4 I did not have issues. Since beta 5 I am receiving the following red warning multiple times: 'NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData' should not be used to for un-archiving and will be removed in a future release This seems to be a CoreData warning. However, I am not using CoreData directly. I have no way to change the config of CoreData as used by SwiftData. My model just uses UUID, Int, String, Double, some of them as optionals or Arrays. I only use one attribute (.unique).

AppleScript for the Music app no longer supports the current track event. Before macOS Tahoe, running the following script in Script Editor would return the current track information: tell application "Music" return name of current track end tell However, when I run this script on a device with macOS 26 Tahoe, I receive this error: "Result: error "Music got an error: Can’t get name of current track." number -1728 from name of current track” I've tested this extensively, and here are my findings: Going to the “songs” tab and playing something from there makes everything work. Playing any song directly will make it work with current track UNLESS this song is NOT in your Music library (either added through Apple Music or uploaded). If you play a song not in your library, current track is not updated even if you clicked on it specifically. Playing an album (in your library obviously) makes all the tracks within it appear in current track until autoplay takes over. Any autoplayed track won’t appear in current track even if in your library (unless: see the last bulletpoint) Music played through the “songs” tab all appear in current track even if autoplay kicks in. I assume this is because this tab is an iTunes legacy (visually and under the hood) and doesn’t use the modern autoplay. This tab also won’t play non-library songs unlike the “albums” tab which seems to use the correct autoplay and suffers the same symptoms as the “recently added”, “home”, “radio”, etc… tabs. Is this a bug, or has Apple simply deprecated this functionality?

I am getting this issue when trying to accept an invite to a new test version of our app. ****Unable to Accept invite This invitation cannot be accepted because your Apple Account, xxxxxxxx.me.com, has already been associated to this app.**** Can you help please?

When I tap on one of the buttons in the ShieldAction extension I want to close the shield and open the parent app instead of the shielded app. Is there any way of doing this using the Screen Time API? class ShieldActionExtension: ShieldActionDelegate {      override func handle(action: ShieldAction, for application: ApplicationToken, completionHandler: @escaping (ShieldActionResponse) -> Void) {     // Handle the action as needed.           let store = ManagedSettingsStore()               switch action {     case .primaryButtonPressed:       //TODO - open parent app       completionHandler(.defer)     case .secondaryButtonPressed:       //remove shield       store.shield.applications?.remove(application)       completionHandler(.defer)         @unknown default:       fatalError()     }   }   }

Hi everyone, I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program on Tuesday evening, November 4th, 2025. The payment has already been charged to my bank account, but my account still shows the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership”. It’s now been several days, and I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information. I already contacted Apple Support by email, but I’d like to know if other developers have experienced the same situation and how long it took before their account was activated. Thanks in advance for your help and feedback! — Martin

Most models are only available as glb or fbx, so I usually reexport them into usdz using Blender. When I import them into Reality Composer Pro, Mesh, Textures etc look great, but in the Animation Library subsection all I can see is one default subtree animation. In Blender I can see all available animations and play them individually. The default subtree animation just plays the default idle animation. In fact when I open the nonlinear animation view in Blender and select a different animation as the default animation, the exported usdz shows the newly selected animation as default subtree animation. I can see in the Apple sample apps models can have multiple animations in their Animation Library. I'm using the latest Blender 4.5 and the usdz exporter should be working properly?

When creating an icon using icon composer, I cant upload a build to testflight/App Store connect. Running on device from Xcode works fine, but as soon as I archive and upload to App Store Connect, I get an error saying the icon contains an alpha channel

With Xcode 14, the device selection on the bottom of the storyboard canvas has changed, and the iPhone 12 and 13 mini screens are no longer there, as well as there only being one model of iPad. Is there a way to add more devices to this section? I have simulators installed for these devices, and this is the way I've been checking compatibility so far, but this is not sustainable. I appreciate any help that you can give me.

Opened a FB already (FB20928652) but wanted to check here if anybody has seen similar or has better workarounds. xcresulttool merge appears to crash immediately after launch in Xcode 26.1 (and in 26.2b1). It does so regardless of any inputs passed in; the crash appears to be during argument parsing before any other logic is run, so it's not contingent on inputs. Working example from 26.0.1 (passing in arbitrary strings for a minimum-reproducible-case, so we expect to see an error message) : % /Applications/Xcode-26.0.1.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcresulttool merge --output-path a b c Error: File or directory doesn't exist at path: b. Usage: xcresulttool <subcommand> See 'xcresulttool --help' for more information. The same example crashes in 26.1: /Applications/Xcode-26.1.0.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcresulttool merge --output-path a b c zsh: trace trap /Applications/Xcode-26.1.0.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcresulttool merge Again, this does crash in real use cases as well, the arbitrary strings are just for quick reproduction. The stack trace appears to be during argument parsing (which from a quick look, did indeed change between 26.0.1 and 26.1). On 26.1+, garbage data seemingly gets passed to AbsolutePath.init. * thread #1, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = breakpoint 1.1 * frame #0: 0x00000001002c6748 xcresulttool-26.1`normalize(absolute:) frame #1: 0x00000001002c6438 xcresulttool-26.1`AbsolutePath.init(_:) + 28 frame #2: 0x000000010005a2c0 xcresulttool-26.1`Merge.run() + 372 frame #3: 0x000000010005b180 xcresulttool-26.1`protocol witness for ParsableCommand.run() in conformance Merge + 12 frame #4: 0x000000010011d3e4 xcresulttool-26.1`dispatch thunk of ReadableStream.close() + 16 frame #5: 0x000000010000148c xcresulttool-26.1`main + 156 frame #6: 0x00000001804d5d54 dyld`start + 7184 The only workaround we've found is to keep using 26.0.1's copy of xcresulttool, though that's obviously not ideal.

Hi there, We’re encountering this error in all of our builds when using the latest Xcode and macOS: The Metal Toolchain was not installed and could not compile the Metal source files. Download the Metal Toolchain from Xcode > Settings > Components and try again. In short, all builds are failing. I’ve tried fixing this by installing Metal and applying other solutions, but none of them worked reliably. Is there a way to ensure that the Metal Toolchain is installed on the CI machine?

Everytime when iOS simulator is launched I het a lot of repeated "*** quit unexpectedly" alerts. Where "***" is a mix of "managedappdistributiond","healthappd", and "findmylocated" Even after the simulator is launched I still het random "*** quit unexpectedly" alerts. Very annoying because the alerts deactivates the active window This is on an MacBook Pro M3 Max,, Xcode 15.2, Sonoma 14.2.1, it also happens with Xcode 15.1 A co developer (MacBook Pro M1 Max,Xcode 15.2, Sonoma 14.2.1) does not have the issue Any idea how I can prevent this from happening? Update Every mentioned service crash happens in libswiftCore.dylib at 0x1929f3938 assertionFailure(:_:file:line:flags:) + 248
