iPadOS 17.7.7

I’m experiencing a strange issue with the App Switcher on my iPad. When I swipe up from the bottom to open the App Switcher, the apps that should be running sometimes don’t appear — they briefly flash for a split second and then disappear. The App Switcher itself stays open, but it shows no app cards. Here are some details: Device: iPad Pro (11-inch, 2nd generation) iPadOS version: 26.0.1 Reproducibility: Happens intermittently Steps to reproduce: Open several apps. Swipe up from the bottom and pause to show the App Switcher. Sometimes, the app cards flash for a moment and then disappear, leaving the App Switcher empty. Expected behavior: The App Switcher should display all running apps consistently. Actual behavior: The App Switcher appears, but the app cards briefly flash and disappear, leaving a blank screen. I’ve seen a few similar reports on the Apple Support Community, but I’m not sure if this is a known issue in iPadOS 26.0.1. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Any confirmation

Since the beta releases of iPadOS 26 we have been having some crashes about Invalid parameter not satisfying: parentEnvironment != nil We got to contact a couple of users and we found out that the crash appears when entering a screen in a UINavigationController with the iPad device connected to a Magic Keyboard. If the device is not connected to the keyboard then nothing happens and everything works ok. From our end we haven't managed to reproduce the crash so I am pasting part of the stacktrace if it can be of any help. 3 UIKitCore 0x19dfd2e14 -[_UIFocusContainerGuideFallbackItemsContainer initWithParentEnvironment:childItems:] + 224 (_UIFocusContainerGuideFallbackItemsContainer.m:23) 4 UIKitCore 0x19dae3108 -[_UIFocusContainerGuideImpl _searchForFocusRegionsInContext:] + 368 (_UIFocusGuideImpl.m:246) 5 UIKitCore 0x19db28498 -[_UIFocusMapSnapshot addRegionsInContainer:] + 2720 (_UIFocusMapSnapshot.m:531) 6 UIKitCore 0x19db28900 -[_UIFocusMapSnapshot addRegionsInContainers:] + 160 (_UIFocusMapSnapsho

FB21772424 On any iPhone or iPad running 26.3 beta 3 with UIFileSharingEnabled enabled via Xcode, a file cannot be manually copied to/from macOS or manually deleted from Finder but 26.3 beta 2 works fine running on any iPhone or iPad. The version of macOS is irrelevant as both macOS 26.2.1 and macOS 26.3 beta 3 are unable to affect file changes via macOS Finder on iPhone or iPad running 26.3 beta 3 but can affect file changes via macOS Finder on iPhone or iPad running 26.2.1 Thank you.

I am developing an iOS/iPadOS application and have encountered some behavior regarding Files App and security-scoped bookmarks that I would like to clarify. Additionally, I would like to report some behavior which might include a potential issue. Question1: Accessing deleted files via bookmark (Specification clarification) Our app saves file URLs as bookmarks, which file that user has selected on Files App or app-created so to open a file which user has modified previously in the next launch. When a user deletes a file in Files App (moves a file to Recently Deleted), the app can still resolve the bookmark and access the file for read/write operations. Is this behavior intended? In other words, is it correct that a bookmark can access a file that has been deleted in Files App but not permanently removed? Question2: Overwriting a file in Recently Deleted (Potential bug) We noticed that overwriting a file in Recently Deleted behaves differently depending on the method used.

Hello Developer Community, I'm encountering a persistent issue with app rejections related to iPad compatibility, even after explicitly removing iPad as a supported device family in my Xcode project for the latest submission (Version 1.0.1, Build 11). The Apple Review team continues to test on iPad devices (specifically an iPad Air 5th generation running iPadOS 18.4.1) and rejects the build under Guideline 2.1 - Performance - App Completeness, citing a login issue with demo credentials that leaves the app stuck on the login page. In my previous submission and subsequent resubmission, I clearly targeted only iPhone in the Xcode project settings (Target -> General -> Deployment Info -> Devices: iPhone). I also confirmed that the Targeted Device Families setting reflects only iPhone. Despite these changes, the review team's feedback indicates they are still evaluating the app on an iPad and encountering the same bug. Their response to my clarification about removing iPad support was: Regarding

When I've tried to use UIDevice on my Mac running my Catalyst application, testing code UIDevice *d=UIDevice.currentDevice; for (NSString *k in @[@name, @systemName, @systemVersion, @model, @localizedModel]) NSLog(@%@ -> %@, k, [d valueForKey:k]); to my great surprise I am getting name -> iPad systemName -> iPadOS systemVersion -> 26.3 model -> iPad localizedModel -> iPad What the. How do I determine the real values? Thanks!

My app uses Foundation Models and Apple Pencil. The app runs great through Xcode; however, due to Apple Pencil support, it has to be run on a physical device. However, Swift Playgrounds on iPad doesn't support iOS 26. I was just wondering if this is something that can be mentioned in submission notes. eg. The app needs to be compiled in Xcode but run on a physical device.” Or should we expect iPadOS 26 support for Swift Playgrounds by the time of submission? Thank you!

1. Summary In a hybrid iOS app using WKWebView (Angular + Capacitor), after programmatically blurring an element and connecting a Bluetooth keyboard, pressing Ctrl+Home or Ctrl+End causes the app to crash. The crash stack shows the issue occurs inside UIKit keyboard handling (UITextInteractionSelectableInputDelegate _moveToStartOfLine), indicating a system-level bug. 2. Steps to Reproduce Open the hybrid app containing a WKWebView. Blur the input (programmatically). Connect a Bluetooth keyboard. Press Ctrl + Home or Ctrl + End. Expected result: No crash. The command should be ignored if no text input is active. Actual result: App crashes immediately. 3.

I've been running the betas fine for a while, now, where do you want to go??
