Hello, I am working on a Braille keyboard by using HID approach. Current the device works with iPhone 11 and SE3. However, when tested in iPhone 6s with iOS 15, although the device can be connected and recognized as Braille device in VoiceOver screen, the phone shows no response to key press report. Would there be any requirement at points such as HID descriptor for iPhone 6s support on Braille device? If iPhone 6s does not support such devices, what is the minimum system requirements? Thank you!

Hello. When testing with the Endpoint Security Framework for the AUTH_OPEN event, I found that the deadline was 15 seconds, but the actual process termination occurred at 5 or 6 seconds. Is this intended?

We’ve noticed an issue where after running a network extension, if the phone’s language is changed the Locale.preferredLanguages array is not updated and still returns the old array. It only returns the updated array when the app is reinstalled or the phone is restarted. This is unlike the app itself where using the same Locale.preferredLanguages API immediately returns the updated array. We think this issue is also the cause of notifications that are sent by the network extension being in the previous language as long as the app isn’t reinstalled or the phone is restarted, despite our Localizable file having localised strings for the new language. Feedback ID: FB20086051 The feedback report includes a sample project with steps on how to reproduce the issue.

I’m having a bit of trouble uploading my new icon to the App Store Connect. I created it entirely with Icon Composer, but it keeps throwing an error saying it’s an “Invalid large app icon.” The error message says that the large app icon in the asset catalog can’t be transparent or have an alpha channel. I only have one AppIcon in the asset catalog, and I’ve checked the “single size” option, which is set to 1024x1024 for any, dark, or tinted size. In the past, when I used the previous icon with the iOS 18 SDK, I didn’t have any issues uploading it. However, when I created the new icon with Icon Composer and compiled it with Xcode Beta, it broke. I’m a bit confused because the error message suggests that removing transparency is the solution, but the whole point of Icon Composer is to make the icon transparent for the new liquid glass design. I don’t want to remove the cool look that my new transparent icon has. Could you please help me out? I’d really appreciate it. Thanks a bunch!

At WWDC the scroll edge effect was presented as a variable blur combined with a soft gradient. Since beta 4 the bottom scroll edge effect has no blur, the top bar sometimes has, but sometimes does not. Even in my own app I have two views with totally different results. This was not changed back in beta 5, so I assume this is not a bug but an intended change. It's hard to design for such a moving target. Especially the missing bottom blur looks bad in a lot of places in my app and I'm debating not shipping the new design if this does not get resolved. Is there any guidance how this effect is supposed to look now? At this point it just seems random and there's no way adjust the way it looks. Phone: Top blur, bottom no blur Settings: Top blur, bottom no blur Notes: No blur at all Music: No blur at all My own app: No top blur My own app: Top blur

I have now signed out of my account in Xcode, quit the application, signed back in, and also cleared the Xcode derived data and cache. However, I am still receiving the 401 Unauthorized error Any operation related to Xcode Cloud (e.g., viewing the dashboard, creating a workflow) fails immediately across all Xcode projects, including brand-new empty projects.

I'm experiencing some rare crash but only if I enable Xcode's "thread performance checker". The crash typically ends with these lines: std::_1::hash_table<std::_1::hash_value_type<long qosWaiterSignallerInvariantCheck ... and sometimes with "findPrimitiveInfoNoAssert" on the second line. I wonder if I am doing anything wrong, or is it a (hopefully known) issue in thread performance checker itself? It does look like some sort of data race bug, if to guess there's some internal dictionary that's not properly protected with a mutex or something. I'm using Xcode 16.4 running on macOS 15.5, building and running an app on iPhone with iOS 18.5. Cheers!

I'm being faced with an issue when using SwiftUI's WebView on iOS 26. In many websites, the top/bottom content is unaccessible due to being under the app's toolbars. It feels like the WebView doesn't really understand the safe areas where it's being shown, because the content should start right below the navigation bar, and only when the user scrolls down, the content should move under the bar (but it's always reachable if the users scroll back up). Here's a demo of the issue: Here's a 'fix' by ensuring that the content of the WebView never leaves its bounds. But as you can see, it feels out of place on iOS 26 (would be fine on previous OS versions if you had a fully opaque toolbar): Code: struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { WebView(url: URL(string: "https://apple.com")).toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .primaryAction) { Button("Top content covered, unaccessible.") {} } } } } } Does anyone know if there's a way to fix it using some sort of view modifier combination or it's just broken as-is?

We have an application which is written in Swift, which activates Transparent Proxy network extension. Our Transparent Proxy module is a system extension, which is exposing an app proxy provider interface (We are using NETransparentProxyProvider class and in extension’s Info.plist we use com.apple.networkextension.app-proxy key.) We are using JAMF MDM profile for installing our transparent proxy in customer environment. We are using VPN payload(https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn) for this network system extension. This payload does not have any field for order. As per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn/transparentproxy-data.dictionary documentation there is another payload for TransparentProxy and we could create a Transparent Proxy profile using iMazingProfile Editor. Noticed that, if we add the Order attribute to the VPN/TransparentProxy payload, while installing the extension, the save to preferences fails with "Error in saving TP configuration in updateOnDemandRule permission denied" error. Can we use this Order field to ordering the installed Transparent Proxy extension in a machine? Customer devices will likely have other Transparent Proxy network extensions as well. We want to allow the Customer to control the order in which each Transparent Proxy network extension receives the network traffic. How can we set the order of the Transparent proxy extension that can be deployed using MDM profile with VPN/TransparentProxy payload? Attached the TransparentProxy payload profile for the reference.

Under Xcode 26 beta 3 I'm trying to build a project which uses Metal. I've installed the Metal Toolchain 26.0 under Settings -> Components, but when I start a build it fails during the "Prepare build" step with the following error (repeated many times): stat(/var/run/com.apple.security.cryptexd/mnt/com.apple.MobileAsset.MetalToolchain-v17.1.5276.7.Pb9SLL/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang): No such file or directory (2) I've confirmed that there is in fact no 'clang' binary in that directory. I've tried using xcode-select to set the Xcode 26 Beta app as the active developer directory, and xcodebuild -version shows: Xcode 26.0 Build version 17A5276g Any ideas on other things to try?

In the past I was always able to install every major macOS version on an external drive so that I can test my apps. But now I'm unable to install macOS Tahoe 26 on an external drive. Actually, as far as I'm aware, there are not even official links to macOS 26 installers, but only instructions on how to update to macOS 26 from an existing macOS installation. So I thought I'd install macOS 15 on a separate drive and then update to macOS 26, but whenever I run the macOS 15 installer, tell it to install on the external drive, and reboot after the setup process completes, my MacBook just boots into my main macOS partition as if nothing happened. 3 months ago I somehow managed to install macOS Tahoe beta 1 on an external drive, I don't remember how (but I don't think it was anything crazy); booting into that beta 1 partition and trying to update doesn't work either, as my MacBook again boots into my main macOS partition. I already asked help about the update problem one month ago here, but nobody replied. Could someone at Apple please provide instructions on how one is supposed to install macOS 26 on an external drive (if possible before it becomes available to the public)? Are we supposed to buy a separate Mac for every macOS version that we want to test our apps on?

Hello, It's impossible to manage hit area for textfield and it's already too small by default (detected with Accessibility Inspector). I'm tried to force with modifier "frame(minHeight: ***)", the component change the height but the hit area is still in same size. Have to tips to fix this issue?

Noticing a few issues with Screen Savers in macOS Tahoe developer beta 1 : The command open x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.ScreenSaver-Settings.extension no longer works to open the Screen Savers preference pane. The reason? There is no longer a Screen Saver preference pane - it still exists, but it's now a Modal dialog (that can not be resized) that is opened from within the Wallpaper preference pane, by clicking a button. Something funny is happening with legacyScreensaver - I think that ScreenSaverView.Init(frame:isPreview) may be passing wrong values, e.g. the isPreview boolean is false in Preview mode? I've submitted Feedback # FB17895600 about some of these, and will report back more as I figure things out. Please feel free to add to this thread, thanks!

Anyone else seeing this? I reported the regression back in March 2025 and have no reply from Apple. My apps are Obj-C, in case it matters. DESCRIPTION After updating to iOS 18.3.x, | noticed a regression in the title menu behavior of my UlDocumentViewController-based shipping apps on the App Store [1]: Instead of displaying the document icon supplied by the app, the share menu item displays a placeholder icon instead, and iconservicesagent error messages are emitted in the log stream [2]. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Install one of the apps from note [1] below. Launch the app, tap the document/title menu at top center of the screen, and observe first menu item. RESULTS Expected: App-provided document icon displayed to left of first menu item ("W-1" or "W68" document icon). Actual: Placeholder icon displayed.

I didn't check this out specifically on earlier betas, but AI is allowed to create new .swift files, yes? I'm only seeing proposals to create files (as opposed to code which it can change automatically), and the CREATE FILE button to the right of any proposed file creation does nothing. Next I'll mention running local models, but file creation does not seem to happen for neither ChatGPT nor any local model. Also I'm experimenting with LM Studio and it is reporting my client is timing out. So I guess Xcode is not waiting long enough for a response? The local models are slow, yes. But is there a setting for the AI timeout value? I told the LLM "Every 1 minute send me an update so I know you are still working so my client does not time out" which seems to have no visible effect, it hasn't timed out yet, but I don't visibly see that message.

I'm creating Live Photos programmatically in my app using the Photos and AVFoundation frameworks. While the Live Photos work perfectly in the Photos app (long press shows motion), users cannot set them as motion wallpapers. The system shows "Motion not available" message. Here's my approach for creating Live Photos: // 1. Create video with required metadata let writer = try AVAssetWriter(outputURL: videoURL, fileType: .mov) let contentIdentifier = AVMutableMetadataItem() contentIdentifier.identifier = .quickTimeMetadataContentIdentifier contentIdentifier.value = assetIdentifier as NSString writer.metadata = [contentIdentifier] // Video settings: 882x1920, H.264, 30fps, 2 seconds // Added still-image-time metadata at middle frame // 2. Create HEIC image with asset identifier var makerAppleDict: [String: Any] = [:] makerAppleDict["17"] = assetIdentifier // Required key for Live Photo metadata[kCGImagePropertyMakerAppleDictionary as String] = makerAppleDict // 3. Generate Live Photo PHLivePhoto.request( withResourceFileURLs: [photoURL, videoURL], placeholderImage: nil, targetSize: .zero, contentMode: .aspectFit ) { livePhoto, info in // Success - Live Photo created } // 4. Save to Photos library PHAssetCreationRequest.forAsset().addResource(with: .photo, fileURL: photoURL, options: nil) PHAssetCreationRequest.forAsset().addResource(with: .pairedVideo, fileURL: videoURL, options: nil) What I've Tried Matching exact video specifications from Camera app (882x1920, H.264, 30fps) Adding all documented metadata (content identifier, still-image-time) Testing various video durations (1.5s, 2s, 3s) Different image formats (HEIC, JPEG) Comparing with exiftool against working Live Photos Expected Behavior Live Photos created programmatically should be eligible for motion wallpapers, just like those from the Camera app. Actual Behavior System shows "Motion not available" and only allows setting as static wallpaper. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. This is affecting our users who want to use their created content as wallpapers. Questions Are there additional undocumented requirements for Live Photos to be wallpaper-eligible? Is this a deliberate restriction for third-party apps, or a bug? Has anyone successfully created Live Photos that work as motion wallpapers? Environment iOS 17.0 - 18.1 Xcode 16.0 Tested on iPhone 16 Pro
