I'm building a SwiftUI app with SwiftData and want to centralize both query logic and related actions in a manager class. For example, let's say I have a reading app where I need to track the currently reading book across multiple views. What I want to achieve: @Observable class ReadingManager { let modelContext: ModelContext // Ideally, I'd love to do this: @Query(filter: #Predicate { $0.isCurrentlyReading }) var currentBooks: [Book] // ❌ But @Query doesn't work here var currentBook: Book? { currentBooks.first } func startReading(_ book: Book) { // Stop current book if any if let current = currentBook { current.isCurrentlyReading = false } book.isCurrentlyReading = true try? modelContext.save() } func stopReading() { currentBook?.isCurrentlyReading = false try? modelContext.save() } } // Then use it cleanly in any view: struct BookRow: View { @Environment(ReadingManager.self) var manager let book: Book var body: some View { Text(book.title) Button(Start Reading) { manager.startReading(book) } if man

Issue Description I'm experiencing a bizarre SwiftUI state update issue that only occurs in Xcode development environment (both Canvas preview and device debugging), but does not occur in production builds downloaded from App Store. Symptom: User taps a button that modifies a @State variable inside a .sheet Console logs confirm the state HAS changed But the UI does not update to reflect the new state Switching to another file in Xcode and back to ContentView instantly fixes the issue The production build (same code) works perfectly fine Environment Xcode: 16F6 (17C52) iOS: 26.2 (testing on iPhone 13) macOS: 25.1.0 (Sequoia) SwiftUI Target: iOS 15.6+ Issue: Present in both Xcode Canvas and on-device debugging Production: Same code works correctly in App Store build (version 1.3.2) Code Structure Parent View (ContentView.swift) struct ContentView: View { @State private var selectedSound: SoundTheme = .none @State private var showSoundSheet = false var body: some View { VStack { // Display butt

Code example: // // ListSafeAreaBarKeyboardTextField.swift // Exploration import SwiftUI import Foundation struct ListSafeAreaBarKeyboardTextField: View { @State private var typedText: String = @FocusState private var focusingTextField: Bool private let items = Array(1...16) var body: some View { ScrollViewReader { proxy in List(items, id: .self) { number in Text(Item (number)) .id(number) } .onAppear { if let lastItem = items.last { proxy.scrollTo(lastItem, anchor: .bottom) } } .onChange(of: focusingTextField) { oldValue, newValue in // This simply won't work // ~ 12th - 16th item will still get covered by keyboard if newValue == true { // Delay to allow keyboard animation to complete DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.3) { if let lastItem = items.last { withAnimation { proxy.scrollTo(lastItem, anchor: .top) } } } } } } .scrollDismissesKeyboard(.interactively) .safeAreaBar(edge: .bottom) { TextField(Type here, text: $typedText, axis: .vertical) .focused($focusingTextField) // Design

How do I set a custom icon for an app control that appears in Control Shortcuts (swipe down from iOS) ? Where is the documentation for size and where to put the image, format etc? Thank you. Working Code (sfsymbol) import Foundation import AppIntents import SwiftUI import WidgetKit // MARK: - Open App Control @available(iOS 18.0, *) struct OpenAppControl: ControlWidget { let kind: String = OpenAppControl var body: some ControlWidgetConfiguration { StaticControlConfiguration(kind: kind, content: { ControlWidgetButton(action: OpenAppIntent()) { Label(Open The App, systemImage: clock.fill) } } }) .displayName(Open The App) // This appears in the shortcuts view } } Sample Image These apps use their own image. How can I use my own image?

Hi all, I’m trying to understand SwiftData’s runtime semantics around optional to-many relationships, especially in the context of CloudKit-backed models. I ran into behavior that surprised me, and I’d like to confirm whether this is intended design or a potential issue / undocumented behavior. Minimal example import SwiftUI import SwiftData @Model class Node { var children: [Node]? = nil var parent: Node? = nil init(children: [Node]? = nil, parent: Node? = nil) { self.children = children self.parent = parent print(self.children == nil) } } struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Button(Create) { _ = Node(children: nil) } } } Observed behavior If @Model is not used, children == nil prints true as expected. If @Model is used, children == nil prints false. Inspecting the macro expansion, it appears SwiftData initializes relationship storage using backing data placeholders and normalizes to-many relationships into empty collections at runtime, even when declared as optional. CloudKit context Fr

I have a Mac application that uses the NSEvent.addLocalMonitorForEvents API to receive all mouse movement events. It receives all the mouse movement events and calculate the event reporting rate. The code used as following: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: globe) .imageScale(.large) .foregroundColor(.accentColor) Text(Hello, world!) } .frame(width: 400, height: 400) .padding() .onAppear() { // here NSEvent.addLocalMonitorForEvents(matching: [.mouseMoved]) { event in print(event.timestamp) return event } } } } With the exact same code, before I upgraded my macOS to the latest version 26.2, I could receive approximately 460+ mouse events per second, this matched the hardware reporting frequency of my mouse device perfectly. However, after upgrading to version 26.2, I noticed that the number of mouse events received per second is limited to match the screen refresh rate: when I set the screen refresh rate to 60Hz, I only receive 60 mouse events p

Hi everyone 👋 I’m fairly new to iOS development and I’ve been stuck on a SwiftUI issue for a while now, so I’m hoping someone here can spot what I’m doing wrong. I’m using navigationTransition(.zoom) together with matchedTransitionSource to animate navigation between views. The UI consists of a grid of items (currently a LazyVGrid, though the issue seems unrelated to laziness). Tapping an item zooms it into its detail view, which is structurally the same view type and can contain further items. All good expect that interactive swipe-back sometimes causes the item to disappear from the grid once the parent view is revealed. This only happens when dismissing via the drag gesture; it does not occur when using the back button. I’ve attached a short demo showing the issue and the Swift file containing the relevant view code. Is there something obvious I’m doing wrong with navigationTransition / matchedTransitionSource, or is this a known limitation or bug with interactive swipe-back? Thanks in advance. i

Hello, I am experiencing a layout glitch when using the new .navigationTransition(.zoom) in SwiftUI on iOS 18+. While the primary content transitions smoothly, the Navigation Bar elements (Title and ToolbarItems) of the source view exhibit an unwanted horizontal sliding animation during the transition. The Problem: As the zoom transition begins, the large inline title and the trailing toolbar buttons do not simply fade out or stay pinned. Instead, they slide to the left of the screen and when destination view is closed they slide back to their place. This creates a janky visual effect where the navigation bar appears to collapse or shift its coordinate space while the destination view is expanding. Problem video link:-
