We’ve just added a new sample code project to the SwiftUI Essentials documentation! If you attended the recent SwiftUI foundations: Build great apps with SwiftUI activity, you might recognize Wishlist, our travel-planning sample app. You can now explore and download the complete project here

Hi all, I’m experiencing a visual bug when applying the glass effect to a Label in Liquid Glass (current version 26.2 on simulator; also reproducible in 26.3.1 on device). Issue: On a label with .glassEffect(.regular), when collapsing via morph animation, the shadow is clipped during the animation, and then suddenly pops back to its un-clipped state, resulting in a jarring visual effect. Minimal Example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Menu { Button(Duplicate, action: {}) Button(Rename, action: {}) Button(Delete…, action: {}) } label: { Label(PDF, systemImage: doc.fill) .padding() .glassEffect(.regular) } } } #Preview { ContentView() } I am not sure if I am misusing the .glassEffect() on the label and maybe there is another more native way of achieving this look? Any advice or workaround suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I am trying to preview my SwiftUI views but Xcode Preview Canvas failing. I tried everything that I found at internet but nothing works. Finally I created a new iOS project that contains only a view import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: globe) .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text(Hello, world!) } .padding() } } #Preview { ContentView() } Even this view cannot be previewed The error is Simulator was shutdown during an update Simulator [3E0DB935-C4C2-4566-BA48-8E21564C207C] failed to boot and may have crashed. I tried to restart xCode, restart Mac, download ios 26.0 sdk and created a simulator with that sdk but nothing helped. Do you have an idea?

I ran into a behavior with PhaseAnimator that I'm not sure is a bug or by design. I'd appreciate any insight. The Problem When an @Observable property is read only inside a PhaseAnimator content closure, changes to that property are ignored after the animation cycle completes and reaches its resting state. The UI gets stuck showing stale data. Minimal Reproduction I've put together a simple demo with two views side by side, both driven by the same ViewModel and toggled by the same button: BrokenView — receives an @Observable object and reads its property inside PhaseAnimator. After the animation completes, toggling the property has no visible effect. FixedView — receives the same value as a Bool parameter. Updates correctly every time because view's parameter has changed. import SwiftUI @Observable class ViewModel { var isError = false } struct BrokenView: View { let viewModel: ViewModel @State private var trigger = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text(Broken (@Observable)).font(.he

CloudKit: Efficient way to get user's rank in leaderboard without fetching all records? I'm building a leaderboard feature using CloudKit's public database and need advice on the best approach to calculate a user's rank efficiently. Current Setup Record Structure: Record Type: LeaderboardScore Fields: period (String): daily, weekly, monthly, allTime score (Int): User's score profile (Reference): Link to user's profile achievedAt (Date): Timestamp Leaderboard Display: Initially fetch first 15 users (sorted by score descending) Paginate to load more as user scrolls Show total player count Show current user's rank (even if not in top 15) The Challenge I can fetch the first 15 users easily with a sorted query, but I need to display the current user's rank regardless of their position. For example: User could be ranked #1 (in top 15) ✅ Easy User could be ranked #247 (not in top 15) ❌ How to get this efficiently? My Current Approach Query records with scores higher than the user's score and count them: // Count how
