Problem After launching the host app by tapping the widget (widgetURL), calls to: WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() WidgetCenter.shared.reloadTimelines(ofKind: ...) are ignored/deferred for an initial period right after the app opens. During this window, the widget does not reload its timeline and remains unupdated, no matter how many times I call the reload methods. After some time passes (typically ~30 seconds, sometimes shorter/longer), reload calls start working again. There is also no developer-visible signal (no callback/error/acknowledgement) that the reload was ignored, so the app can’t detect the failure and can’t reliably recover the flow. Question: Is this expected behavior (throttling/cooldown) after opening the app from a widget ? If so, is there any recommended workaround to update the widget reliably and quickly (or at least detect that the reload was not accepted)? Any guidance would help.

UIHostingConfiguration on tvOS: focus permanently broken with multiple focusable SwiftUI views Hi everyone, I'm working on a tvOS app with a UICollectionView. Some cells embed SwiftUI content via UIHostingConfiguration, specifically a row of 3 buttons that should be individually focusable. The cell itself returns canBecomeFocused = false so focus passes through to the SwiftUI buttons. The problem: after navigating focus into that section once, it becomes permanently unfocusable. Focus enters briefly, then immediately exits to nil on its own, without any user input. From that point on, the focus engine completely skips the section. The exact same SwiftUI view works perfectly when embedded via UIHostingController instead. How to reproduce Press DOWN to move focus into the UIHostingConfiguration section Focus lands on a SwiftUI button for a split second Focus exits on its own and bumps to another section The section is now dead, focus skips it on every subsequent navi

In iOS 18, TabView with .tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable) introduced a powerful adaptive pattern — tabs in compact, sidebar in regular. However, the current Tab API only supports a title and an image (icon). There is no way to provide a trailing accessory view (e.g., a secondary icon or indicator) for sidebar rows. This is a meaningful gap in the API, because trailing accessories are a well-established pattern throughout UIKit and SwiftUI. Precedent in Apple's own design language Apple already supports trailing accessories in many analogous contexts: UITableViewCell / UICollectionViewListCell — support accessories (disclosure indicators, checkmarks, custom views) via UICellAccessory. UIListContentConfiguration — allows leading and trailing content in list rows. SwiftUI List rows — support Label, HStack with trailing elements, .badge(), and swipeActions. NavigationLink — automatically renders a disclosure chevron as a trailing accessory. UITabSidebarItem (UIKit, iOS 18) — supports configuratio

I have 9 plus years of iOS experience starting with Objective C and moving to Swift, but after 4 years in my current company with little salary growth, I am struggling to find new opportunities in a highly competitive market with fewer openings and broader skill expectations. I am unsure about the long term career path for mobile developers, concerned about compensation growth and lacking SwiftUI experience, and would appreciate guidance on what additional skills to learn to stand out and secure better opportunities.

Hello, I have noticed a performance drop on SpriteKit-based projects running on iOS 26.3. The issue seems very similar to the issue reported on iOS 26.0, and later solved from iOS 26.2 beta 3: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/800952?answerId=870617022#870617022 With 26.3, it seems a regression occured. Below is the same SpriteKit scene used to test framerate on different devices: import SpriteKit import SwiftUI class BareboneScene: SKScene { override func didMove(to view: SKView) { size = view.bounds.size anchorPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 0.5) backgroundColor = .darkGray let roundedSquare = SKShapeNode(rectOf: CGSize(width: 150, height: 75), cornerRadius: 12) roundedSquare.fillColor = .systemRed roundedSquare.strokeColor = .black roundedSquare.lineWidth = 3 addChild(roundedSquare) let action = SKAction.rotate(byAngle: .pi, duration: 1) roundedSquare.run(.repeatForever(action)) } } struct BareboneSceneView: View { var body: some View { SpriteView( scene: BareboneScene(), debugOptions: [.showsF

[Submitted as FB21961572] When navigating from a tile in a scrolling LazyVGrid to a child view using .navigationTransition(.zoom) and then returning, the source tile can lag behind the rest of the grid if scrolling starts immediately after returning. The lag becomes more pronounced as tile content gets more complex; in this simplified sample, it can seem subtle, but in production-style tiles (as used in both of my apps), it is clearly visible and noticeable. This may be related to another issue I recently filed: Source item disappears after swipe-back with .navigationTransition(.zoom) CONFIGURATION Platform: iOS Simulator and physical device Navigation APIs: matchedTransitionSource + navigationTransition(.zoom) Container: ScrollView + LazyVGrid Sample project: ZoomTransition (DisappearingTile).zip REPRO STEPS Create a new iOS project and replace ContentView with the code below. Run the app in sim or physical device Tap any tile in the scrolling grid to navigate to the child view. Return to the grid (back butt

Overview I have the following view hierarchy that mixes SwiftUI and UIKit: AccordionView └─ VStack ├─ Text ├─ Button └─ UIViewRepresentable └─ UIStackView ├─ UILabel └─ UILabel When tapping the button, the UIViewRepresentable hides and shows its content. This all works as expected. However, in certain circumstances the view's sizing is rendered with the correct size, but the text can often render incorrectly, despite the frame seemingly looking as though it has enough room to render the text. More info Below you can see the UILabel has the correct frame height (the light grey background and coloured borders) but the text is rendered as though it has infinite width along one line. There's a few configurations of my view hierarchy that seem to have this effect. I've added a playground to the bottom of this post of various configurations to show what does and doesn't work, just copy and paste to see for yourself... It seems of the ones that don't work, there's a couple of reasons why that may be: Hosted

[Submitted as FB21958289] A minimal SwiftUI app logs framework warnings when a bottom bar Menu is used with the system search toolbar item. The most severe issue is logged as a console Fault (full logs below): Adding 'UIKitToolbar' as a subview of UIHostingController.view is not supported and may result in a broken view hierarchy. Add your view above UIHostingController.view in a common superview or insert it into your SwiftUI content in a UIViewRepresentable instead. This appears to be a framework-level SwiftUI/UIKit integration issue, not custom UIKit embedding in app code. The UI may still render, but the warnings indicate an internal hierarchy/layout conflict. This occurs in simulator and physical device. REPRO STEPS Create a new project then replace ContentView with the code below. Run the app. The view uses NavigationStack + .searchable + .toolbar with: ToolbarItem(placement: .bottomBar) containing a Menu DefaultToolbarItem(kind: .search, placement: .bottomBar) EXPECTED RESULT
