Overview

Hello, I've a question about performance when trying to render lots of items coming from SwiftData via a @Query on a SwiftUI List. Here's my setup: // Item.swift: @Model final class Item: Identifiable { var timestamp: Date var isOptionA: Bool init() { self.timestamp = Date() self.isOptionA = Bool.random() } } // Menu.swift enum Menu: String, CaseIterable, Hashable, Identifiable { var id: String { rawValue } case optionA case optionB case all var predicate: Predicate<Item> { switch self { case .optionA: return #Predicate { $0.isOptionA } case .optionB: return #Predicate { !$0.isOptionA } case .all: return #Predicate { _ in true } } } } // SlowData.swift @main struct SlowDataApp: App { var sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([Item.self]) let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) return try! ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration]) }() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } .modelContainer(sharedModelContainer) } } // ContentView.swift struct ContentView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @State var selection: Menu? = .optionA var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(Menu.allCases, selection: $selection) { menu in Text(menu.rawValue).tag(menu) } } detail: { DemoListView(selectedMenu: $selection) }.onAppear { // Do this just once // (0..<15_000).forEach { index in // let item = Item() // modelContext.insert(item) // } } } } // DemoListView.swift struct DemoListView: View { @Binding var selectedMenu: Menu? @Query private var items: [Item] init(selectedMenu: Binding<Menu?>) { self._selectedMenu = selectedMenu self._items = Query(filter: selectedMenu.wrappedValue?.predicate, sort: \.timestamp) } var body: some View { // Option 1: touching `items` = slow! List(items) { item in Text(item.timestamp.description) } // Option 2: Not touching `items` = fast! // List { // Text("Not accessing `items` here") // } .navigationTitle(selectedMenu?.rawValue ?? "N/A") } } When I use Option 1 on DemoListView, there's a noticeable delay on the navigation. If I use Option 2, there's none. This happens both on Debug builds and Release builds, just FYI because on Xcode 16 Debug builds seem to be slower than expected: https://indieweb.social/@curtclifton/113273571392595819 I've profiled it and the SwiftData fetches seem blazing fast, the Hang occurs when accessing the items property from the List. Is there anything I'm overlooking or it's just as fast as it can be right now?

Do you guys know how to fix the render of the text in the accessory view ? If I force the color of text to be .black it work but it will break dark mode, but forcing it .black : .white on color scheme changes makes white to still adapt to what is behind it I have noticed that Apple Music doesn’t have that artifact and it seems to break when images are behind the accessory view // MARK: - Next Routine Accessory @available(iOS 26.0, *) struct NetxRoutinesAccessory: View { @ObservedObject private var viewModel = RoutineProgressViewModel.shared @EnvironmentObject var colorSchemeManager: ColorSchemeManager @EnvironmentObject var routineStore: RoutineStore @EnvironmentObject var freemiumKit: FreemiumKit @ObservedObject var petsStore = PetsStore.shared @Environment(\.colorScheme) private var colorScheme // Tab accessory placement environment @Environment(\.tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement) private var accessoryPlacement // Navigation callback var onTap: (() -> Void)? @State private var isButtonPressed = false /// Explicit black for light mode, white for dark mode private var textColor: Color { colorScheme == .dark ? .trueWhite : .trueBlack } /// Returns true when the accessory is in inline/minimized mode private var isInline: Bool { accessoryPlacement == .inline } var body: some View { accessoryContent() .onTapGesture { onTap?() } } private func accessoryContent() -> some View { HStack(spacing: 12) { // Content with smooth transitions VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 2) { if viewModel.totalTasks == 0 { Text(NSLocalizedString("Set up routines", comment: "Routines empty state")) .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) .foregroundColor(textColor) } else if let next = viewModel.nextRoutineTask() { HStack(spacing: 4) { Text(NSLocalizedString("Next", comment: "Next routine prefix")) .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(textColor) Text("•") .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(textColor) Text(next.routine.name) .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) .foregroundColor(textColor) .lineLimit(1) } .id("routine-\(next.routine.id)-\(next.time)") .transition(.opacity.combined(with: .move(edge: .leading))) HStack(spacing: 4) { Text(viewModel.petNames(for: next.routine.petIDs)) .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(textColor) Text("•") .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(textColor) Text(Routine.displayTimeFormatter.string(from: next.time)) .font(.caption.weight(.medium)) .foregroundColor(colorSchemeManager.accentColor ?? .blue) } .id("time-\(next.routine.id)-\(next.time)") .transition(.opacity.combined(with: .move(edge: .leading))) } else { // All tasks completed Text(NSLocalizedString("All done for today!", comment: "All routines completed")) .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) .foregroundColor(textColor) .transition(.opacity.combined(with: .scale)) Text("\(viewModel.completedTasks)/\(viewModel.totalTasks) " + NSLocalizedString("tasks", comment: "Tasks count suffix")) .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(textColor) } } .animation(colorSchemeManager.reduceMotion ? nil : .snappy(duration: 0.3), value: viewModel.completedTasks) .animation(colorSchemeManager.reduceMotion ? nil : .snappy(duration: 0.3), value: viewModel.progress) } .padding() .contentShape(.rect) .animation(colorSchemeManager.reduceMotion ? nil : .snappy(duration: 0.35), value: viewModel.completedTasks) } }

Hello, I'm working on a game that features online multiplayer. The game is developed using Unity and Apple Unity plugins. The "isUnderAge" property restricts the online multiplayer feature. Everything works as expected on all platforms (Mac, iPhone, iPad, AppleTV, and visionPro) except on Macs equipped with an Intel chip. Using the same iCloud and GameCenter, with no restrictions enabled, "isUnderAge" returns false, as expected, but on Mac equipped with an Intel chip, it returns true. Is there any restriction or compatibility issue with those chips? Is there a workaround? Thanks

Description: I’m encountering an issue where the Apple Watch’s watchOS version is lower than the deployment target specified in my Xcode project. For example, my Watch device is running watchOS 10.6, but my app’s deployment target is set to watchOS 9.6 or 10.6, and Xcode shows an error stating: Error: “watchOS version doesn’t match the app’s deployment target.” Could someone clarify how to properly handle this version mismatch? Environment: Xcode 26 iPhone: iOS 18 Apple Watch: watchOS 10.6 Any guidance or best practices would be appreciated.

Hardware: • Mac Studio (M1 Ultra) • Apple Silicon • Sufficient free disk space (~35GB+ available) • SIP enabled • 4 local Time Machine snapshots present Current System: • Already running macOS Tahoe beta • Attempting upgrade to macOS Tahoe 26.4 Beta (Build 25E5207k) Primary Issue: Software Update downloads successfully, then moves to “Preparing…”. It stalls at “About 5 minutes remaining” for ~10–15 minutes and fails with: “Failed to prepare the software update. Please try again. An error occurred while downloading the selected updates.” The error appears network-related, but download always completes. Observed Behaviour: • “Checking for Updates” completes in <3 minutes. • softwareupdated and mobileassetd CPU usage <1%. • softwareupdate --history shows no record of the failed beta install. • No excessive system load or obvious disk pressure. Steps Already Attempted: 1. Standard Software Update retries • Multiple download/retry cycles from System Settings. • Same Preparing failure every time. 2. Permissions / Disk Access • Granted Terminal Full Disk Access. • SIP remains enabled. • Some system-protected locations still return “Operation not permitted”. 3. Cache / State Cleanup Attempts • Removed /Library/Updates/*. • Cleared temporary softwareupdate folders under /private/var/tmp. • Attempted MobileAsset cache cleanup where permitted. • Killed softwareupdated and mobileassetd processes (auto-restarted by launchd). 4. Beta Channel Reset • Turned Beta Updates OFF in System Settings. • Rebooted. • Re-enabled Beta Updates. • Forced catalog refresh via softwareupdate -l. 5. Snapshot Check • tmutil listlocalsnapshots / shows only 4 snapshots (normal range). 6. Full Installer Workaround softwareupdate --list-full-installers shows: • macOS Tahoe Beta 26.4 (25E5207k) • Tahoe 26.3 / 26.2 / 26.1 • Sequoia / Sonoma / Ventura / Monterey installers Downloaded installer via: softwareupdate –fetch-full-installer –full-installer-version 26.4 Installer downloaded correctly: /Applications/Install macOS Tahoe Beta.app 7. startosinstall Method (Apple Silicon optimized) Attempted install with: sudo “/Applications/Install macOS Tahoe Beta.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall” –user –agreetolicense –nointeraction –forcequitapps –rebootdelay 30 –passprompt Authorization succeeds, installer begins preparing, but installation still ultimately fails. Additional Notes: • CPU usage remains low during failure. • No excessive snapshot count. • Error messaging consistently references download/network even though download completes. • Issue appears to occur during cryptex/asset preparation phase rather than initial download. Question for Apple / other developers: Has anyone else seen Tahoe 26.4 beta fail specifically during the Preparing phase on Apple Silicon (especially Ultra-class chips)? Looking for confirmation whether this is a known MobileAsset or cryptex staging issue, or if logs indicate a deeper APFS / volume-owner authorization problem.

I've recently updated one of our CI mac mini's to Sequoia in preparation for the transition to Tahoe later this year. Most things seemed to work just fine, however I see this dialog whenever the UI Tests try to run. This application BoostBrowerUITest-Runner is auto-generated by Xcode to launch your application and then run your UI Tests. We do not have any control over it, which is why this is most surprising. I've checked the codesigning identity with codesign -d -vvvv as well as looked at it's Info.plist and indeed the usage descriptions for everything are present (again, this is autogenerated, so I'm not surprised, but just wanted to confirm the string from the dialog was coming from this app) &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"&gt; &lt;plist version="1.0"&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;BuildMachineOSBuild&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;22A380021&lt;/string&gt;

&lt;key&gt;OSBundleUsageDescription&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;Access is necessary for automated testing.&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/plist&gt; Additionally, spctl --assess --type execute BoostBrowserUITests-Runner.app return an exit code of 0 so I assume that means it can launch just fine, and applications are allowed to be run from "anywhere" in System Settings. I've found the XCUIProtectedResource.localNetwork value, but it seems to only be accessible on iOS for some reason (FB17829325). I'm trying to figure out why this is happening on this machine so I can either fix our code or fix the machine. I have an Apple script that will allow it, but it's fiddly and I'd prefer to fix this the correct way either with the machine or with fixing our testing code.

I had take screenshots by following code let scenes = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes let windowScene = scenes.first as? UIWindowScene let window = windowScene?.windows.first self.uiImage = window?.rootViewController?.view!.getImage(rect: rect) View has two views. One is ImageView contains some image and overlay of image detection results with .overlay. another view is InfoView contains several info and button which above code fired. on iOS 17, I can take screenshots as I saw, but on iOS26, missing on image of ImageView. Overlay(detected rectangle) in Imageview and InfView can be taken. How can I take screenshots as I saw on iOS26?(iPad)

I now had the second user with 26.2. complaining about a hang in my app. The hang occurs when the first AppleScript for Mail is run. Here is the relevant section from the process analysis in Activity Monitor: + 2443 OSACompile (in OpenScripting) + 52 [0x1b32b30f4] + 2443 SecurityPolicyTestDescriptor (in OpenScripting) + 152 [0x1b32a2284] + 2443 _SecurityPolicyTest(char const*, void const*, unsigned long) (in OpenScripting) + 332 [0x1b32a2118] + 2443 InterpreterSecurity_ScanBuffer (in libInterpreterSecurity.dylib) + 112 [0x28c149304] + 2443 -[InterpreterSecurity scanData:withSourceURL:] (in libInterpreterSecurity.dylib) + 164 [0x28c148db4] + 2443 -[XProtectScan beginAnalysisWithFeedback:] (in XprotectFramework) + 544 [0x1d35a1e58] + 2443 -[XPMalwareEvaluation initWithData:assessmentClass:] (in XprotectFramework) + 92 [0x1d359ada4] + 2443 -[XPMalwareEvaluation initWithRuleString:withExtraRules:withURL:withData:withAssessmentClass:feedback:] (in XprotectFramework) + 36 [0x1d359b2a8] My app is correctly signed and notarised. The first user had to completely uninstall/reinstall the app and the everything worked again. Why does this happen? How can the problem be fixed?

Hey everyone, I purchased an Apple Developer Program for 99 USD on January 1 2024, filled out my credit card that I use for iCloud+ storage plan, got my confirmation email that within 48h my developer account should be activated, but it never did. Plus after waiting more than 48h I wrote to support, describing everything, but never heard back from them. One thing I noticed during the checkout was I was asked for everything (name, address, CC number, expiry date) but not the CVV number. Is this normal, and would Apple be able to process the payment without it? I though about going through the enrolment process again, but am afraid of a double charge, in case my original enrolment gets accepted... Please advise and share your experiences when enrolling to the developer program. Thanks!

I’m blocked debugging a watchOS app on a physical Apple Watch. The iPhone connects to Xcode normally (wired), but the Watch either fails to connect with a tunnel timeout or disappears entirely from Xcode after I unpaired it inside Devices & Simulators. Environment Mac: macOS 26.x (Apple Silicon Mac) Xcode: 26.2 iPhone: iOS 26.1 Apple Watch Ultra: watchOS 26.2 (build 23S303) Connection: iPhone connected to Mac via USB (trusted). Watch paired to iPhone and working normally in the Watch app. Issue A (when Watch is visible in Xcode) In Xcode → Window → Devices and Simulators, the Watch shows up but is not usable and fails to connect. Error: “Previous preparation error: A connection to this device could not be established.” “Timed out while attempting to establish tunnel using negotiated network parameters.” In some attempts the Watch shows “Capacity: Unknown” / limited details, and then fails during preparation. Issue B (after unpairing Watch in Xcode only) I unpaired/removed the Watch in Xcode (Devices & Simulators). I did not unpair the Watch from the iPhone. Now: iPhone appears in Xcode and works normally for builds. Watch is still paired to the iPhone and works normally. Watch no longer appears anywhere in Xcode Devices & Simulators (no paired watch section, no watch run destination). What I’ve tried Reboots of Mac, iPhone, Watch (multiple times) Watch unlocked, awake; iPhone unlocked and close to Watch Verified Watch is paired and connected in iPhone Watch app Developer Mode enabled on iPhone and Watch Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ON (Mac/iPhone/Watch), tried toggling both Tried on home Wi-Fi and also with iPhone hotspot (same result) Resetting trust prompts / reconnecting iPhone via USB, re-trusting Mac Apple Watch: “Clear Trusted Computers” Xcode: removing/re-adding devices; clearing derived data; restarting Xcode Watch Developer networking test: Responsiveness = Medium (430 RPM) Questions 1. Is this a known issue/regression with Xcode 26.2 + watchOS 26.2 tunneling (CoreDevice / devicectl)? 2. Is there an Apple-supported way to force Xcode to re-discover a paired Watch after it was removed from Xcode Devices & Simulators (without unpairing the Watch from the iPhone)? 3. Any recommended logs or diagnostic steps I should collect (Console logs, sysdiagnose, specific Xcode/CoreDevice logs) to include in a Feedback report? If helpful, I can provide the full error text from Xcode’s Devices window and any logs you recommend. Thank you in advance,

Hi, I have a completely new release of my app coming out with a new tech stack. I noticed that only 1% of my users were on iPad so the new app was not created to be 'compatible' with iPad including how it looks on iPad. Can I release this new version of the app only for iPhone? Or because it was previously available for iPad I have to release for iPad as well? Really appreciate any support/guidance on this. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I’ve filed a Feedback report (FB20986470) for a serious issue affecting the Call Directory database when add phone numbers for call blocking. When adding blocking numbers to a Call Directory extension, the system’s CallKit database (/private/var/mobile/Library/CallDirectory/CallDirectory.db) becomes corrupted. The reload call (reloadExtensionWithIdentifier) fails with error code 11 when the system tries to insert blocking entries, and the Console app on macOS shows the following errors: database corruption page 2265525 of /private/var/mobile/Library/CallDirectory/CallDirectory.db at line 81343 of [f0ca7bba1c] database corruption at line 79387 of [f0ca7bba1c] Error Domain=com.apple.callkit.database.sqlite Code=11 "sqlite3_step for query 'INSERT INTO PhoneNumberBlockingEntry (extension_id, phone_number_id) VALUES (?, (SELECT id FROM PhoneNumber WHERE (number = ?))), (?, (SELECT id FROM PhoneNumber WHERE (number = ?))),...)'" After this happens, CallKit becomes fully corrupted on the device and no further numbers can be added, even after: Disabling and re-enabling the extension Restarting the device (either force or soft restart) Reinstalling the app Waiting for a couple of minutes after this issue happens (that CallKit could possibly self-recovered) I also tested other call-blocking apps, and they all fail with the same error. The only thing that recovers the system is a full “Reset All Settings.” This issue has been reported by many users of my app, across multiple iOS versions and devices. Similar related issue reported by another developer: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/806129 Steps to Reproduce: Enable the Call Directory extension from a call-blocking app. Add and reload blocking numbers (a few thousand entries). Perform multiple reloads between additions. Check the Console, the corruption errors appear. From this point, all insert attempts fail system-wide. Expected Result: Entries should be inserted successfully, or the system should self-recover without persistent corruption. Actual Result: sqlite3_step fails with Code=11, and the Call Directory database remains corrupted until the user resets all settings. Additional Notes: All numbers are sorted and deduplicated before insertion. Happens intermittently after multiple reloads. The system log always shows internal database failure. Environment: Device: iPhone 16 Plus iOS 18.2 Beta (23C5027f) Xcode 16.1 (17B55) Attachments (included in Feedback FB20986470): sysdiagnose captured immediately after the failure (with Phone app General Profile) It seems like a system-level corruption affecting all Call Directory extensions once it occurs.

Hi, After enabling the new Enhanced Security capability in Xcode 26, I’m seeing install failures on devices running < iOS 26. Deployment target: iOS 15.0 Capability: Enhanced Security (added via Signing & Capabilities tab) Building to iOS 18 device error - Unable to Install ...Please ensure sure that your app is signed by a valid provisioning profile. It works fine on iOS 26 devices. I’d like to confirm Apple’s intent here: Is this capability formally supported only on iOS 26 and later, and therefore incompatible with earlier OS versions? Or should older systems ignore the entitlement, meaning this behavior might be a bug?

I’m encountering a strange, sporadic error in FileManager.replaceItemAt(_:withItemAt:) when trying to update files that happen to be stored in cloud containers such as iCloud Drive or Dropbox. Here’s my setup: I have an NSDocument-based app which uses a zip file format (although the error can be reproduced using any kind of file). In my NSDocument.writeToURL: implementation, I do the following: Create a temp folder using FileManager.url(for: .itemReplacementDirectory, in: .userDomainMask, appropriateFor: fileURL, create: true). Copy the original zip file into the temp directory. Update the zip file in the temp directory. Move the updated zip file into place by moving it from the temp directory to the original location using FileManager.replaceItemAt(_:withItemAt:). This all works perfectly - most of the time. However, very occasionally I receive a save error caused by replaceItemAt(_withItemAt:) failing. Saving can work fine for hundreds of times, but then, once in a while, I’ll receive an “operation not permitted” error in replaceItemAt. I have narrowed the issue down and found that it only occurs when the original file is in a cloud container - when FileManager.isUbiquitousItem(at:) returns true for the original fileURL I am trying to replace. (e.g. Because the user has placed the file in iCloud Drive.) Although strangely, the permissions issue seems to be with the temp file rather than with the original (if I try copying or deleting the temp file after this error occurs, I’m not allowed; I am allowed to delete the original though - not that I’d want to of course). Here’s an example of the error thrown by replaceItemAt: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don’t have permission to save the file “test-file.txt” in the folder “Dropbox”." UserInfo={NSFileBackupItemLeftBehindLocationKey=file:///var/folders/mt/0snrr8fx7270rm0b14ll5k500000gn/T/TemporaryItems/NSIRD_TempFolderBug_y3UvzP/test-file.txt, NSFileOriginalItemLocationKey=file:///var/folders/mt/0snrr8fx7270rm0b14ll5k500000gn/T/TemporaryItems/NSIRD_TempFolderBug_y3UvzP/test-file.txt, NSURL=file:///Users/username/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox/test-file.txt, NSFileNewItemLocationKey=file:///Users/username/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox/test-file.txt, NSUnderlyingError=0xb1e22ff90 {Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don’t have permission to save the file “test-file.txt” in the folder “NSIRD_TempFolderBug_y3UvzP”."

"Dummy text".write(to: tempURL, atomically: false, encoding: .utf8)) != nil else { return } do { // Use replaceItemAt to safely move the new file into place. _ = try fileManager.replaceItemAt(savingURL, withItemAt: tempURL) print("save succeeded!") try? fileManager.removeItem(at: replacementDirURL) // Clean up. } catch { print("save failed with error: \(error)") // Note: if we try to remove replaceDirURL here or do anything with tempURL we will be refused permission. NSAlert(error: error).runModal() } } If you run this code and set savingURL to a location in a non-cloud container such as your ~/Documents directory, it will run forever, resaving the file over and over again without any problems. But if you run the code and set savingURL to a location in a cloud container, such as in an iCloud Drive folder, it will work fine for a while, but after a few minutes - after maybe 100 saves, maybe 500 - it will throw a permissions error in replaceItemAt. (Note that my real app has all the save code wrapped in file coordination via NSDocument methods, so I don’t believe file coordination to be the problem.) What am I doing wrong here? How do I avoid this error? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

For testing permission response we can use the sandbox account However, when testing permission requests using the AskCenter API, none of the ask API works for me in xcode 26.2 rc and iOS 26.2 rc. For SignificantAppUpdateTopic, I got errors like "The user is in a region that does not support this type of ask" in the console log, but I've already set my billing address to Texas. For CommunicationTopic, the console shows several XPC-related errors, and I’m not sure which of them are relevant. Both of them show an alert view of "Can't ask, An unknown error occurred" Can someone help to guide us how to test the request flow? Thanks

I've followed the setup process to get Apple Hosted Background Assets configured for my project. (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/backgroundassets/downloading-apple-hosted-asset-packs) But when I build and run the app I get the following error... BackgroundAssets/AssetPackManager.swift:174: Fatal error: The process lacks a team ID. I've checked the Signing->Team for both targets and they both have my Team associated. Any help or advice would be appreciated...

I’m developing a share extension for iOS 26 with Xcode 26. When the extension’s sheet appears, it always shows a full white background, even though iOS 26 introduces a new “Liquid Glass” effect for partial sheets. Expected: The sheet background should use the iOS 26 glassmorphism effect as seen in full apps. Actual behavior: Custom sheets in my app get the glass effect, but the native system sheet in the share extension always opens as plain white. Steps to reproduce: Create a share extension using UIKit Present any UIViewController as the main view Set modalPresentationStyle = .pageSheet (or leave as default) Observe solid white background, not glassmorphism Sample code: swift override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .clear preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width, height: 300) } Troubleshooting attempted: Tried adding UIVisualEffectView with system blur/materials Removed all custom backgrounds Set modalPresentationStyle explicitly Questions: Is it possible to enable or force the Liquid Glass effect in share extensions on iOS 26? Is this a limitation by design or a potential bug? Any workaround to make extension sheet backgrounds match system glass appearance?

I'm experiencing a contradictory validation issue with DeviceActivityReportExtension that creates an impossible situation: The Problem: Without NSExtensionPrincipalClass in Info.plist → App Store Connect rejects upload with: "Missing Info.plist values. No values for NSExtensionMainStoryboard or NSExtensionPrincipalClass found" With NSExtensionPrincipalClass → Local install fails with: "defines either an NSExtensionMainStoryboard or NSExtensionPrincipalClass key, which is not allowed for the extension point com.apple.deviceactivityui.report-extension" Setup: Extension point: com.apple.deviceactivityui.report-extension Using SwiftUI with @main attribute and DeviceActivityReportExtension protocol Xcode 16.2, iOS 17.6 deployment target Code structure: @main struct SpoolReport: DeviceActivityReportExtension { var body: some DeviceActivityReportScene { // Report scenes here } } The extension builds and runs perfectly without NSExtensionPrincipalClass, but cannot be uploaded to App Store Connect. Adding the key allows upload but breaks local installation. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround or correct Info.plist configuration for DeviceActivityReportExtension? Thank you!

I've recently installed 26.1 Beta 3 alongside stable 26.0.1 When building my app with 26.0.1 the final .ipa size is ~17mb, however after building my app with 26.1 Beta 3 the size has increased up to ~22mb The main difference is Assets.car blowing from 1.1mb to 5.6mb (or 8.6mb if I include all icons settings). Upon examining I've found new liquid glass .icon file duplicating itself multiple times as png variants (any, dark, tinted, etc). Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

When I create a SwiftUI toolbar item with placement of .keyboard on iOS 26, the item appears directly on top of and in contact with the keyboard. This does not look good visually nor does it match the behavior seen in Apple's apps, such as Reminders. Adding padding to the contents of the toolbar item only expands the size of the item but does not separate the capsule background of the item from the keyboard. How can I add vertical padding or spacing to separate the toolbar item capsule from the keyboard?
