I want to create GIF file and then use UIImage to it.

Returning to a Mac Catalyst app that I put to the side for awhile..when running it on Xcode 26.1 it crashes at launch with: Assertion failure in -[NSToolbarItemGroupView _layoutWrapperViewsWithAttributes:], NSToolbarItemGroupView.m:599 No attributes were found for item Call stack has a bunch of Autolayout code in AppKit like: [NSWindow(NSConstraintBasedLayoutInternal) _layoutViewTree] + 120 50 AppKit 0x00000001911e8a10 -[NSWindow(NSConstraintBasedLayoutInternal) layoutIfNeeded] + 240 51 UIKitMacHelper 0x00000001a98f293c -[UINSWindow layoutIfNeeded] + 56 A few unnamed symbols mixed in maybe that's that Swiftness beneath the surface. App is just murdered on launch. I assume this is related to using NSToolbarItemGroup when building an NSToolbar... I do see this log out: NSToolbarItemGroup does not support selectionMode. Create the group with one of the class constructors to support selection. Which is an interesting log so I commented out all calls to setSelectionMode: but still the same crash. I do set the groups subitems property directly (I do not use the class constructors as the logging statement above indicates). I have no idea if using the class constructors will workaround this issue or not but I'm not particularly excited about that idea because I have items in the same toolbar group with different actions.

Hi, I'm using a UICollectionViewCell in my project and I can't wrap my head around why cell's UI state isn't changing when selected. This is my code: override func updateConfiguration(using state: UICellConfigurationState) { super.updateConfiguration(using: state) var background = UIBackgroundConfiguration.listGroupedCell().updated(for: state) background.cornerRadius = 25 // Update background based on selection state if state.isSelected { background.backgroundColor = .systemBlue.withAlphaComponent(0.3) background.strokeColor = UIColor.systemBlue background.strokeWidth = 1.5 } else { background.backgroundColor = isHoveredOver ? .hoverHighlightBackground : .background background.strokeColor = UIColor.borderColor background.strokeWidth = 1 } backgroundConfiguration = background } The if block does get executed but it's not working for some reason. On the other hand, the else block works just fine, my cell's background is being highlighted when hovered over, the stroke is showing etc. What am I missing here? Thank you.

I have a UICollectionView using a UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout with an orthogonally scrolling section. When selecting a cell, I present a modal view controller with a zoom transition. If I scroll quickly in that section after dismissing the presented view controller, the cells briefly overlap. See the attached screenshot. This issue occurs only on iOS 26 and does not occur on iOS 18. Has anyone found a way to mitigate this?

I’m experiencing an issue after building the project with Xcode 26.1.1. In my code, I have a UICollectionView that contains multiple cells, and each cell has a slider. When I move a slider in one cell, sliders in other cells also move. This issue does not occur in Xcode 16.4 – it works perfectly there. If anyone has a solution or knows if this is related to Xcode 26 changes, please let me know. Thanks!

Trying to make a sheet-like view that attaches at the bottom to another view so I'd like to have only the top two corners rounded. This works for a blurred effect: let glassView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: UIBlurEffect(style: .systemMaterial)) glassView.layer.cornerRadius = 20 glassView.layer.maskedCorners = [.layerMinXMinYCorner, .layerMaxXMinYCorner] glassView.layer.masksToBounds = true but if I try to use the iOS 26 UIGlassEffect, all 4 corners become rounded: let glassView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: UIGlassEffect()) glassView.layer.cornerRadius = 20 glassView.layer.maskedCorners = [.layerMinXMinYCorner, .layerMaxXMinYCorner] glassView.layer.masksToBounds = true

Dear Apple Developer Support, I am writing to seek guidance regarding App Clips launch source differentiation in our restaurant application. Background: Our restaurant uses QR codes that are permanently associated with specific table numbers. These QR codes successfully launch our App Clip and pass the table information via NSUserActivity with NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb. Current Issue: We are facing a significant challenge in distinguishing between different launch sources: Camera Scan/URL Launch: When customers scan the QR code using the native camera or tap a URL, the App Clip launches with the correct table information. App Library Launch: When customers launch the App Clip from the App Library, it restores the previous NSUserActivity with potentially outdated table information. The Problem: Since we cannot determine whether the App Clip was launched from the camera/URL or from the App Library, we cannot reliably decide whether to use the table information carried by userActivity. This causes customers to be directed to incorrect tables when launching from the App Library. What We've Tried: We have attempted various approaches to differentiate the launch source: Checking for AppClipActivationPayload - but it exists in both scenarios Examining UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey and UISceneConnectionOptions Analyzing URL parameters and timestamps Implementing custom state management However, none of these methods provide reliable differentiation between camera scan launches and App Library restorations. Question: Is there any official API or recommended approach to programmatically determine if an App Clip was launched: From a camera scan/URL tap (fresh launch), OR From the App Library (state restoration) Any guidance on how to properly handle this scenario would be greatly appreciated, as it significantly impacts the user experience in our restaurant ordering system. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards

When a subclass of UIInputView is created programmatically, a memory leak occurs. This issue can be easily reproduced even with a very simple sample project, so I’m submitting this report along with a minimal reproducible example. When a custom view subclassing UIInputView is instantiated in code, _InputViewContent retains the custom view, and the custom view also holds a reference back to _InputViewContent, creating a strong reference cycle that prevents deallocation. The issue consistently occurs and has been confirmed on Xcode 16.4, 26.0, and 26.1. As a workaround, initializing the view via Storyboard allows it to be properly deallocated from memory. (Please refer to the CustomInputView in the attached sample code.) import UIKit final class LeakInputView: UIInputView { deinit { print("LeakInputView deinit") // not called } } final class CustomInputView: UIInputView { required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: aDecoder) } override init(frame: CGRect, inputViewStyle: UIInputView.Style) { super.init(frame: frame, inputViewStyle: inputViewStyle) } deinit { print("CustomInputView deinit") // called } } extension CustomInputView { static func loadFromNib() -> CustomInputView { let nib = UINib(nibName: "CustomInputView", bundle: nil) guard let view = nib.instantiate(withOwner: nil, options: nil).first as? CustomInputView else { fatalError("Failed to load CustomInputView from nib.") } return view } } final class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .red LeakInputView() LeakInputView() LeakInputView() CustomInputView.loadFromNib() CustomInputView.loadFromNib() CustomInputView.loadFromNib() DispatchQueue.main.async { print("Next runloop tick") } } }

After updating from iOS 26 to iOS 26.1, all my transparent system elements (i.e. UITabBar, UIBarButtonItem) started rendering with a dark background tint. In iOS 26 the same configuration looked fully transparent / glassy. The strange part is that the tint only appears in normal UIViewControllers. In UITableViewController the tab bar still looks correct and transparent, even on iOS 26.1. I am using the same appearance code as before: func setupTabBarAppearance() { guard let tabBar = tabBarController?.tabBar else { return } if #available(iOS 26.0, *) { let appearance = UITabBarAppearance() appearance.configureWithTransparentBackground() appearance.backgroundColor = .clear appearance.backgroundEffect = nil appearance.shadowColor = .clear tabBar.standardAppearance = appearance tabBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = appearance tabBar.isTranslucent = true tabBar.backgroundColor = .clear tabBar.barTintColor = .clear } else { tabBar.isTranslucent = true tabBar.backgroundImage = UIImage() tabBar.shadowImage = UIImage() tabBar.backgroundColor = .clear } } I tried removing backgroundEffect, forcing .clear colors, using configureWithDefaultBackground, changing edgesForExtendedLayout, extendedLayoutIncludesOpaqueBars, etc. I noticed that if I change Liquid Glass in iOS 26 settings from Clear to Tinted, then I get a black tint everywhere and the interface becomes consistent, but not the way I want. Nothing removes the new dark tint in iOS 26.1. Is this an intentional change in iOS 26.1, a bug, or is there a new way to make the tab bar fully transparent again?

Description of the current implementation: A section, UIView, has been added to UITableView. This section is a UICollectionView that displays an array of images. Each UICollectionViewCell is an image displayed via a UIImageView. Issue: When UITableView is scrolled vertically, the section with the image collection flickers. Attempts made to solve the problem: if #available(iOS 26.0, *) { tableView.bottomEdgeEffect.isHidden = true tableView.topEdgeEffect.isHidden = true tableView.leftEdgeEffect.isHidden = true tableView.rightEdgeEffect.isHidden = true } else { // Fallback on earlier versions } This helped with a similar issue. I tried it on UITableView and UICollectionView, but it didn't work.

I use the following bit of code to snapshot a View as a UIImage, but it's causing a memory leak: extension View { @ViewBuilder func snapshot(trigger: Bool, onComplete: @escaping (UIImage) -> ()) -> some View { self.modifier(SnapshotModifier(trigger: trigger, onComplete: onComplete)) } } fileprivate struct SnapshotModifier: ViewModifier { var trigger: Bool var onComplete: (UIImage) -> () @State private var view: UIView = .init(frame: .zero) func body(content: Content) -> some View { content .background(ViewExtractor(view: view)) .compositingGroup() .onChange(of: trigger) { generateSnapshot() } } private func generateSnapshot() { if let superView = view.superview?.superview { let render = UIGraphicsImageRenderer(size: superView.bounds.size) let image = render.image { _ in superView.drawHierarchy(in: superView.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true) } onComplete(image) } } } fileprivate struct ViewExtractor: UIViewRepresentable { var view: UIView func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UIView { view.backgroundColor = .clear return view } func updateUIView(_ uiView: UIView, context: Context) { // No process } } Taking the snapshot is triggered like this: struct ContentView: View { @State private var triggerSnapshot: Bool = false var body: some View { Button("Press to snapshot") { triggerSnapshot = true } TheViewIWantToSnapshot() .snapshot(trigger: triggerSnapshot) { image in // Save the image; you don't have to do anything here to get the leak. } } } I'm not the best at Instruments, and this is what the Leaks template produces. There are no method names, just memory addresses: Is this leak in an internal iOS library, is there something wrong with Instruments, or am I missing something obvious in my code? Thanks.

Hi, I am running iOS Simulator on iOS 26 and I am trying to change unselectedItemTintColor of UITabBarItem in my TabBarViewController but it did not work when I tried following ways: Setting an iconColor through UITabBarAppearance() class Setting unselected item tint color like tabBar.unselectedItemTintColor = .black As an example attached file, I would like to set Settings tab's item color (icon + title) with different one when it is unselected.

Hello Apple Team, I’ve encountered a regression in iOS 26.1 when building my app with Xcode 26 (iOS 26 SDK). The issue affects PKPaymentButtonType.plain, which now renders as fully invisible and produces transparent snapshots, even though the same code worked correctly in previous Xcode/iOS versions. This has a real-world impact because many apps generate static images from PKPaymentButton for payment selection UIs using UIGraphicsImageRenderer, layer.render(in:), or custom snapshot utilities. When using PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) on iOS 26.1, when built with Xcode 26, the button: Appears blank / invisible Cannot be snapshotted Produces a fully transparent UIImage, even though the CGImage object exists Behaves differently than older SDKs (Xcode 16.x / iOS < 26.1 This regression only appears when compiling with the new SDK. Other button types work fine. Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented Snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Actual Behavior .plain button renders no glyph at all Snapshot image is fully transparent (alpha = 0), even though size and CGImage metadata are correct Only happens when built with Xcode 26 SDK Same build from Xcode 16.x does not reproduce the issue Steps to Reproduce Create a minimal sample project in Xcode 26 Add the following code: let button = PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 180, height: 48) let renderer = UIGraphicsImageRenderer(size: button.bounds.size) let image = renderer.image { _ in button.drawHierarchy(in: button.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true) } print(image) Run on iOS 26.1 device or simulator Observe that: The button appears visually empty The generated image is fully transparent Environment Xcode: 26.x (iOS 26 SDK) iOS: 26.1 (iPhone 15 Pro tested) Device: Real device Framework: UIKit + PassKit Button type: .plain ONLY Other types: .pay/.buy/.checkout = OK

I see in iPhone built-in apps that action sheets are presented as popovers without arrows over their originating views. Here is an example in Messages and Shortcuts apps. In WWDC 2025 session "Build a UIKit app with the new design", the speaker explains that all you have to do is to configurate the popover like we do for iPad. Here is the relevant transcript: 14:33 ActionSheets on iPad are anchored to their source views. Starting in iOS 26, they behave the same on iPhone, appearing directly over the originating view. 14:46 On the alertController, make sure to set the sourceItem or the sourceView on popoverPresentationController, regardless of which device it’s displayed on. Assigning the source view automatically applies the new transitions to action sheets as well! Action sheets presented inline don’t have a cancel button because the cancel action is implicit by tapping anywhere else. If you don’t specify a source, the action sheet will be centered, and you will have a cancel button. iOS 26 provides a new, more integrated search experience, letting you position the search field where it best suits the needs of your app. I do this in this sample code: import UIKit class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground let actionButton = UIButton(configuration: .bordered()) actionButton.setTitle("Show Action Sheet", for: .normal) actionButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(showActionSheet), for: .touchUpInside) actionButton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false view.addSubview(actionButton) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ actionButton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor), actionButton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.layoutMarginsGuide.topAnchor, constant: 100) ]) } @objc private func showActionSheet(_ button: UIButton) { let alert = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: nil, preferredStyle: .actionSheet) alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Option 1", style: .default, handler: { _ in print("Option 1 selected") })) alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Option 2", style: .default, handler: { _ in print("Option 2 selected") })) alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel, handler: nil)) // Set the popover presentation anchor if let popover = alert.popoverPresentationController { popover.sourceItem = button } present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil) } } When I run this code in iOS 26, I get a popover (versus a bottom action sheet on iOS 18) but this popover has an arrow. What do I miss to display this popover like Apple does on iOS 26: without an arrow and over the originating view?

The PaperMarkup class in PaperKit allows for an asynchronous function called .draw(in:, frame:) that we should call as: await paperMarkup.draw(in: context.cgContext, frame: rect) In PencilKit the PKDrawing that we can get from a PKCanvasView allows for .image(from: ,scale:) to be called synchronously. This allows me to easily render into a PKDrawing as a UIImage or a SwiftUI Image to, for example, render a thumbnail on screen. When trying to incorporate PaperKit in my project I noticed that I often need the drawing to be rendered synchronously (like I would with PKDrawing) but I can't find the way to accomplish this within PaperKit's current functionality. Is there any way to call .draw(...) in PaperKit synchronously? Feedback: FB20993683

We're observing several UI issues with VNDocumentCameraViewController on devices running iOS 26. These screens were functioning correctly in earlier iOS versions. Issue 1 - On the edge correction screen, the top bar now appears as a gray strip beneath the status bar, whereas in previous iOS versions, it was positioned at the bottom of the screen. Do we have any workarounds to address this issue? Issue2 - The edit buttons and their labels are not clearly visible, affecting usability. Im using XCode 16.4 to build to iOS26 and the usage is like below: `let scanner = VNDocumentCameraViewController() scanner.delegate = self self.present(scanner, animated: true)`

We're observing several localization issues with VNDocumentCameraViewController on devices running iOS 26. These localizations were correct in earlier iOS versions. Images indicate that some English labels appear when the device's language is changed to German. The issue can be reproduced by using the Note app.

I want to scale the Image. If my Image (or GIF) is 11x33 (width=3 and height=11) but I want the Image size be 220x660 and how to auto expand the pixel? the pixel (0,0) in my image will be a 20x20 with same color. which means the Image(which I want) will has a pixel(0,0) to (20,20) is the same color to the (0,0)
