I'm pretty excited for the all new iOS 26 redesign, but what I'm most excited for is the call screening feature to avoid unwanted calls. I downloaded the developer's beta on my secondary device to report bugs, but call screening doesn't work on it even though it's turned on. I already sent a feedback report, but I'm not sure if it's just a beta bug or that my iPhone won't support it. I haven't found much info about it. It's a 2nd gen SE. Thanks.

Hi, this is my first post in the community, so please correct me if i am posting this somewhat in a wrong manner. Im using my Apple M1 Pro(14inch, 2021) and installed the os 26 yesterday. Today, I was using Safari, and all of sudden it gets frozen, then the following window popped up. Is this something expected? i.e. my usage is somewhat unusual or is there any report around potential memory leak in Safari? appreciate any suggestions, as Safari is my main browser and currently on hold due to this issue. Thanks

Prior to iOS 26, it was possible to design an inputAccessoryView(Controller) that would integrate seamlessly with the system keyboard, by which I mean appearing as a natural extension of the system keyboard. For example, using CYRKeyboardButton https://github.com/tmcintos/CYRKeyboardButton. To date, I have successfully used this to provide an enhanced numeric key row within my apps, which is a distinguishing feature of these apps. It took a lot of engineering and testing effort to perfect this design. However, with iOS 26 the design is completely broken due to the system keyboard UI change, which makes it impossible to display an inputAccessoryView seamlessly along the top of the system keyboard (see attached screenshots). In my opinion, it is just plain reckless for Apple to make these kinds of trivial UI changes, which break existing app designs without adding any significant value to the user experience. iOS ≤ 18.x: iOS 26 beta:

I am attempting to start my application on iOS 26 with Xcode 26. It uses an UISplitViewController that is instantiated through a Storyboard. It uses the "Unspecified" style, which is a holdover from a previous version of iOS. I'm not sure if this is a bug in iOS, or if I am supposed to change it now. The viewControllers property only has the primary view controller on iOS, although it has the primary and detail view controllers on iPadOS. When I start the application on iOS 18.5, it has both primary and detail controllers on both platforms.

It’s very annoying but on my iPhone 12 Pro I keep getting the accessibility app with the microphone on and it keeps opening the app by itself and it’s a blank screen and every time I close it it just reopens. I don’t know why it keeps doing this, but it drives me crazy. Does anyone know what else to do? I also have the beta iOS 26 but it’s been doing this even with the past update.

Currently there's only an option to link your OpenAI account to use ChatGPT within Xcode on MacOS 26 Beta. Apparently with other services like Claude you can specify which model you'd like to use, but there's no such option for ChatGPT. Is this coming, or is this working as designed?

iOS 26 added smoothness to CIRoundedRectangleGenerator, for use with CIFilter.roundedRectangleGenerator. What should the smoothness value be to achieve the same corner curve as CALayerCornerCurve.continuous? Does it need to be calculated based on the extent size, if so, how?

getting an interesting error attempting to compile my app in Xcode 26 beta. error: Unable to find module dependency: '_MediaPlayer_AppIntents' (in target 'icatcher' from project 'icatcher') note: A dependency of main module 'MainModuleCrossImportOverlays' (in target 'icatcher' from project 'icatcher') Unable to find module dependency: '_MediaPlayer_AppIntents' Not sure what to try and pull to fix this issue

I have added multiple status icons to my project, in the form of .icon files created with Icon Composer. The main app icon works, but the status icons are not working. I am attempting to load the images from the asset catalog using NSImage imageNamed:, and apply them to the NSApp dockTile using NSGlassEffectContainerView. I don't even know if that attempt is going to work, as I never get past the stage of NSImage loading the icons. Maybe someone on the forums knows what to do there? I'd be willing to use one of my coding support incidents to work through this if necessary, as my two incidents will expire as my subscription rolls over in August anyway. My project lives at https://github.com/losnoco/cog/, and the Tahoe attempt WIP lives in the wip.tahoe branch, with the latest commit as of this post being the attempt to adapt the Dock Icon generation. I'd love to know if I can adapt this easily. I'm also still trying to support existing non-Glass custom .png icons the user can add to their profile folder with buttons in the preferences, as well as supporting legacy status icons on pre-Tahoe installs. I also try to add a progress bar to the dock tile view when the app is processing something at length.

I noticed on the Find My app in the new iOS 26 beta that the TabView and the sheet seem to be part of the same view. When you collapse the sheet, the TabView is still visible, and you can swipe up to view the sheet again. Is there a way to recreate this effect? Preferably in SwiftUI, but UIKit works too.

That time of year again. I’ve tried multiple restarts, and it still won’t load. I’m not sure if/how to remove the beta profile at this point (that seems to have worked for previous betas), given that the beta settings are hidden.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to submit the first app for Beta Review to do Beta in Testflight, created a separate workflow for Beta Build and stuck at the step of filling in the "Information for Beta Review" form. After filling in all the fields and clicking "Save" it just shows me an empty popup with "Close" button, and I see that request for https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/ci/api/teams//testflight/information-v2?product_id=ACTUAL_ID_REPLACED_HERE is failing with 404. Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong? Thanks and appreciate the help

Hey, I cant can update or downgrade to a newer Version like IOS18.5 Can someone help me? And will Apple fix that?

I set iOS 26 to install overnight, put my iPhone 16 Pro on the MagSafe charger, watched it charge just fine, and went to sleep. When I woke up the iPhone showed the “plug into power” dead battery screen. I took it off MagSafe and put it back on. A half hour later the phone was warm but still wouldn’t power on, just showed the battery screen with a little red in it. I took it off MagSafe and plugged it into my iPad charging brick with USB cable to give it more power, still it did not turn on. I tried holding all the buttons to try to force a restart but didn’t work. For anyone else encountering this, do this to enter DFU mode and restore it. I had to do it a few times before I got the timing right. Plug into your Mac and open Finder (or apparently a PC with Apple Devices or iTunes) Press and quickly release volume up Press and quickly release volume down Press and hold right side button When the battery disappears and screen goes black, hold volume down and continue holding side button After a couple seconds release the side button and continue holding volume down A prompt to allow connecting to the iPhone should appear after a couple seconds, click Allow, and it’ll say the iPhone entered DFU mode - proceed to restore the firmware

I updated my iPhone to 26 and I just went to to to see if my iPhone was up to date I went and see but a came across this

I have an iPhone 14 Pro. I downloaded the iOS 26 beta and had a SERIOUS error, rendering the phone unusable. I charged it to 60% and kept it plugged in while updating. While updating, I restarted several times at the Apple logo, then at the Welcome screen, and it had quite a few bugs with low battery warnings. When I turned it on, I noticed I had 1% (I thought it was strange). When it was plugged in, it wouldn't charge; it only had 1% left, and it also restarted every 2 minutes. Off-plugged, it did exactly the same thing. In the end, I had to go back to iOS 18.5; I had no problems with this version.

Dear Developers, I would like to suggest an optimization for the logic governing the download and installation queue for app updates. Currently, when multiple applications are awaiting updates, the prioritization does not appear to consider the update payload size. My proposal is to implement a logic that prioritizes the download and installation of updates with a smaller delta size (fewer MB) before those with a larger delta. Practical Example: A 1MB update would be processed before a 500MB update, even if their arrival order in the queue was inverted. Potential Benefits: Perceived Speed Optimization (UX): Users would gain access to functional applications more quickly, especially in scenarios with multiple pending updates. Network Efficiency: In limited or intermittent bandwidth scenarios, completing smaller downloads first can reduce the chance of download failures and optimize network resource utilization. Device Resource Management: Frees up temporary storage and processing resources more rapidly for smaller updates. I believe this optimization would bring significant gains in terms of User Experience (UX) and the operational efficiency of the platform. Thank you for your attention and consideration. Sincerely,

Hello everyone, I’d like to propose Sense & Store — a seamless integration between Safari and the App Store, powered by on-device AI, designed to understand what users are reading, searching, or selecting in Safari, and suggest relevant apps that match their current context or intention. 🔍 Key Idea: “Sense” the user’s need through intelligent analysis of web content, then “Store” — offer the most relevant app, either already installed or available in the App Store. 🌟 Core Features: • AI-powered context detection directly inside Safari • Real-time app suggestions based on user intent • Smart overlays when selecting text or data (e.g., phone numbers, emails, tools) • Privacy-first: All AI runs on-device (Apple Neural Engine) • Instant App Launch or Installation via StoreKit ✅ Examples: • Reading an article on productivity? → Suggests Notion or Things. • Looking up meditation tips? → Recommends Calm or Headspace. • Selecting a phone number? → Offers CRM or spam blocker apps. • Exploring code samples? → Suggests Pythonista or developer tools. 🔒 Privacy & Performance: • 100% on-device intelligence (no data sent to servers) • Follows Apple’s privacy framework • Works with SafariKit + StoreKit + CoreML ⸻ I’m happy to provide a full prototype roadmap and technical architecture. Feedback and collaboration are welcome! Would love to hear your thoughts — especially from developers who build for Safari, App Clips, or work with CoreML. Thanks! Jose Luiz Horta Barbosa Maurity Cruz - Apple lover...

PDFKit PDFPage.characterBounds(at: Int) is returning incorrect coordinates with iOS 18 beta 4 and later / Xcode 16 beta 4. It worked fine in iOS 17 and earlier (after showing the same issue during the early iOS 17 beta cycle) It breaks critical functionality that my app relies on. I have filed feedback (FB14843671). So far no changes in the latest betas. iOS release date is approaching fast! Anybody having the same issue? Any workaround available?
