When preparing SwiftUI code that uses List with .listStyle(.plain) for iOS 26, the by-default sticky section headers combined with the new translucent top-bars often causes unpleasantly overlapping text: Two questions here: Is there a modifier to make section headers non-sticky? This would be helpful for cases where the translucent bar is a good fit and the section titles don't need to be sticky/pinned. I found .listStyle(.grouped) can be an alternative in some cases, but this adds a gray background / additional padding to the section titles. Is there a way to get a blurry material behind the section headers when they are sticking to the top bar? This would be good for cases where the section header is important content-wise (like in the two-column example above or for a data list categorized using sections that should be always visible as a point of reference) I found the scroll edge effects and .scrollEdgeEffectStyle(.hard, for: .top) does the trick for the top bar but doesn't affect attached stick

I have been working to remediate PDFs for a client. The documents/forms have many tables. When I correctly tag a table, using Foxit Editor Pro, it works beautifully on a PC reading it with NVDA. On Mac using VoiceOver the table isn't accessible. It doesn't matter if I try to read it in Adobe Acrobat, Foxit, or Preview. The reader often says the document is empty, omits column headers, and/or associates the wrong header with the column data. The documents have essentially the same coding behind them as for the web. Why is it they perform so well on a PC with NVDA, but so poorly with Mac VoiceOver? I am a Quality Assurance Specialist. I review websites apps, and documents for accessibility. Why can't I do my job using only my Mac system? As a Mac user, it frustrates me that I can't use my preferred system for checking documents to see if they are accessible because VoiceOver doesn't work well. I actually have to recommend to my clients and their customers that they need to use a PC with NVDA o

In iOS 26 beta 4 (build from July 2025), there is a visual issue when using a UISplitViewController. Specifically, the text color of labels in the primary column does not adapt correctly to Dark Mode. This includes navigation bar titles and labels inside UITableViewCells. Regardless of system appearance settings, the text remains black, making it unreadable when the system switches to Dark Mode. To reproduce this, create a new iOS project using UISplitViewController with the .doubleColumn style. In the primary column, embed a UIViewController that contains a navigation title using navigationItem.title, and a UITableView showing a list of items. Run the app on a device or simulator with iOS 26 beta 4. Then switch the system appearance to Dark Mode using Control Center and observe the interface. The expected result is that all labels in the primary column, including the navigation title and table view cell labels, should automatically update to a light text color in Dark Mode. This be

I have been trying to get the drag and drop to work on iOS 26 betas. Single drag is okay, but I thought this year we were getting multi-select drag added. creating a simple object that can be dragged. Using the .draggable and added dropDestination which does trigger. The problem is the dragContainer does nothing. Not really clear what it is supposed to do. How am I supposed to allow for multiple item drag and drop like the Photos app? In there you can start a drag and tap additional photos to add to the drag. I can do this with a UICollectionView, but not with SwiftUI. struct DragObject: Codable, Identifiable, Transferable { var index: Int enum Keys: String, CodingKey { case index } var id:Int { index } public func encode(to encoder: any Encoder) throws { var container = encoder.container(keyedBy: Keys.self) try container.encode(self.index, forKey: .index) } static public var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { CodableRepresentation(contentType: .json) } } @available(iOS 26.0, *) struct Drag

Hi everyone, I've noticed that on iOS 26 beta 1 through beta 4, when using a List with the .plain style, the section header overlaps with the cell content below it, as there is no background for the header. This creates a poor visual experience. Additionally, when using NavigationSplitView on iPad, the second column's list always shows this issue. Is this an intentional design change, or just a temporary issue? I haven't found a good workaround so far. Thanks! FB19066489

I cannot explain how frustrating this is. Not that I want to compare to Android, but in 3 years of QA Testing my app, Android works like a dream, while iOS fights with me EVERY SINGLE STEP OF THE WAY. Hopefully someone here can tell me what I am missing/doing wrong/which god I must appease to get this to work. I have 3 REAL iPhones of varying iOS versions and ages. But they are all proper actual iPhones. We use google accounts at this company, so my primary email is a gmail one. I have created MANY sandbox accounts inside App Store Connect. Currently I have 2, and 2 of my devices (both 14's one of which is a Pro) have my Primary account as the main account for the device. But they both also have a Sandbox account which is simply my main email with a +sandbox in it to make it a new unique email. Here is the problem, nothing works as expected ever. I can install my Staging and Production apps from TestFlight, then I can make a subscription purchase as a customer would and I SHOULD see that subscription in my Sa

Issue: CSV Headings Not Appearing in Shortcut-Generated File I'm using an iPhone 16 Pro with iOS 18.5 and the latest Shortcuts app to log expenses into a CSV file. The shortcut works fine, except the resulting file doesn't include the column headings. Here’s what I’ve done: Created a file called Expenses.csv with this single header line: Date,Price,Category,Store,Notes,Location Saved it to both /iCloud Drive and /iCloud Drive/Shortcuts (via iCloud on my Windows PC). My Shortcut builds the CSV line from inputs (date, price, category, etc.) and appends it to the file. I renamed the variables only in the final “Text” block, since renaming in earlier blocks seems no longer possible in this Shortcuts version. Despite this setup, the file doesn’t preserve the header row—it either doesn’t show up, or gets overwritten. Goal: Have a persistent CSV file with the correct headers once, and each new entry appended below the correct columns. Can anyone help me figure out what I’m doing wrong?

I've observed a difference in the layout of menu items within ContextMenu and Menu when comparing system applications to my own SwiftUI app, specifically concerning the order of icons and titles. On iOS 26, system apps (as shown in the image in the System App column) appear to display the item's icon before its title for certain menu items. However, in my SwiftUI app, when I use a Label (e.g. Label(Paste, systemImage: doc.on.clipboard)) or an HStack containing an Image and Text, the icon consistently appears after the title within both ContextMenu and Menu items. I'm aiming to achieve the icon first, then title layout as seen in system apps. My attempts to arrange this order using HStack directly within the Button's label closure: Menu { Button { /* ... */ } label: { HStack { Image(systemName: doc.on.clipboard) Text(String(localized: Paste)) } } // ... } label: { Text(タップミー) } seem to be overridden or restricted by the OS, which forces the icon to the leading position (as shown in the image in the Cu

I’m building a cross-platform app targeting macOS, iPad, and iPhone. My app currently uses both 2-level and 3-level navigation workflows: 3-level navigation: First level: Categories Second level: List of items in the selected category Third level: Detail view for a specific item 2-level navigation: First level: Category Second level: A singleton detail view (for example, StatusView). It does not have concept of List. After watching a couple of WWDC videos about multi-platform navigation, I decided to go with NavigationSplitView. However, on macOS, a 3-column NavigationSplitView felt a bit overwhelming to my eyes when the third column was empty—especially for the occasional 2-level navigation case. So I removed the third column and instead embedded a NavigationStack in the second column. According to the official Apple documentation, this is supported: You can also embed a NavigationStack in a column. The code with NavigationStack in NavigationSplitView works fine o

In the Console, when presenting my view in a horizontally compact environment, I see: UINavigationController for collapsing UISplitViewController about to push view controller This message repeats infinitely, until the Xcode debugger eventually says: QUARANTINED DUE TO HIGH LOGGING VOLUME Of note is that this only occurs in the beta, does not occur when using the iOS 18.x SDK, and only occurs in a compact environment. EDIT: This occurs only when setting the secondary column of a doubleColumn UISplitViewController: splitVC.setViewController(secondary, for: .secondary) EDIT 2 and WORKAROUND: If this action is deferred until after viewDidAppear, it self-resolves: public override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewDidAppear(animated) if let deferredSecondaryViewController { splitVC.showDetailViewController(deferredSecondaryViewController, sender: nil) } }
