Hi all,
Sharing a reproducible UIKit issue I’m seeing across multiple iPadOS 26 betas, with a tiny sample attached and a short video.

https://github.com/yoasha/ListSwipeOvershootReproSwift
Summary
In a UISplitViewController (.doubleColumn), a UICollectionView using list layout shows a large leading-swipe overshoot when the split view is expanded (isCollapsed == false). The cell content translates roughly 3–4× the action width.
Repros with appearance = .plain and .grouped
Does not repro with .insetGrouped
Independent of trailing provider (issue persists when trailing provider is nil)
Collapsed split (compact width) behaves correctly
Environment
Devices: iPad Air (3rd gen), iPadOS 26.0 (23A5326a) → Repro
Simulators: iPad Pro 11-inch (M4), iPadOS 26.0 beta 6 → Repro
Also tested on device: iPadOS 26 beta 5, 6, 7, 8
Xcode: 26.0 beta 6 (17A5305f)
Steps to reproduce
Launch the sample; ensure the split is expanded (isCollapsed == false).
In the secondary list, set Appearance = Plain (also repros with Grouped).
Perform a leading swipe (LTR: swipe right) on any row.
Actual: content shifts ~3–4× the action width (overshoot).
Expected: content translates exactly the action width.
Switch Appearance = InsetGrouped and repeat the leading (swipe right) gesture → correct (no overshoot).

It's not yet fully clear why and when does this crash occur, but I'm creating this post so there's a centralized thread for this.
Some hints collected so far:
The crash is occurring for existing Xcode projects opened with new Xcode 26.0 beta (17A5241e); no one's been able to reproduce on a project created in Xcode 26. I even tried creating a project with Xcode 16.2 and open it in Xcode 26, but it's all working fine there (don't have older Xcode at the moment, to try with many versions)
It crashes right at the line of code that initializes URLSessionConfiguration. If you call URLSession() without parameters (which is deprecated as of iOS 13), the session initializes without the crash.
It's NOT occurring only for libraries installed through package manages. In a project where it crashes, one should be able to reproduce by adding URLSessionConfiguration.default as the first line in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
It crashes when running an app on an iOS 26 simulator. (I don't have a device running beta iOS 26 to test on it!) It's working fine when running the app on a simulator or a device running iOS 18 or older.
Related issue on Firebase GitHub repo: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk/issues/14948
Sorry to not be able to provide more info at the moment. I wanted to report this so in case someone from Apple knows about it, we could at least get some feedback or workarounds, until fix is released -- and, to prevent us all from duplicating this report in repositories of each library, as this isn't related to libraries.
Any time I attempt to download the latest beta of macOS 26, Safari stops the download at Zero KB, with no indication of why.
I'm able to download OS 26 beta 8 for the other platforms absolutely fine, just not macOS. Pressing the little orange "reload" button, just results in another copy of the same zero KB file bundle on the file system.
Can anyone help please?
Hello,
It seems Xcode 26 beta is lagging the OS releases, which is fine.
However, how does one install a Beta N + 1 or N + 2 SDK into the older Xcode beta?
I'd like to use iOS 26 Beta 8 from the Xcode 26 Beta 6 install I have. I have tried Settings/Components and Devices & Simulators but nothing Beta 7 nor 8 shows up there.
Thanks!

Verbatim of a feedback report (FB18431713) I submitted, duplicated here since we can't see each other's feedbacks, and I wanted a centralized place to track the resolution of this as I'm surely not the only one facing this.
When building the app using Xcode 26 beta 2 and running it in an iOS 26 simulator, I'm experiencing a retain cycle in the UINavigationController.
From the data I saw in Xcode's memory graph debugger, it seems that _UIViewControllerOneToOneTransitionContext is retaining it. I base this on the fact that the line connecting a view controller and _UIViewControllerOneToOneTransitionContext has a "strong" reference, as indicated in Xcode. (However, I'm reporting this as a retain cycle in UINavigationController, as that's what seems to hold onto this transition-context.)
Just posted this feedback regarding macOS 26 "Tahoe" (FB19853155) - please support with additional submissions if you share my view. I will miss the beautiful and individual designed icons of the past!
"macOS 26 is enforcing squicles for app icons, falling back to a grey background for 3rd party apps without a compliant AppIcon asset.
As a result many original app icons are reduced in size and hard to distinguish because they share the same background color. Although I respect Apple's strive for an iOS-like UI on Macs, a smooth transition path would be more user- and developer-friendly ... e.g. with some info.plist property to opt-out icon migration, potentially ignored by a future macOS version.
The current solution causes a bad usability, and makes the system look inconsistent as many - especially free - software will not be updated with new icon designs. Please reconsider this bad design decision!"
I was trying to watch hulu while on facetime and saw theres no way to change the screenshare/shareplay automatically like you can set it to on the other ios and not automatically shareplay hulu on ios 26 beta unless i just didnt see it.
I’m running into unexpected problems with the Unity GameKit plugin setup with the new Activities. I didn’t see anyone else mentioning these issues, so my guess is that it’s a problem with my setup.
The authentication (GKLocalPlayer.Authenticate()) works as expected, but any call to the new GameActivity functionality (e.g. GKGameActivityDefinition.LoadGameActivityDefinitions() or GKGameActivity.WantsToPlay) gives me an exception with a 'UnsupportedOperationForOSVersion' reason despite it running on an iOS 18.6.1 device.
I’m using a completely empty Unity 2022.3.62f1 project that only contains the official authentication example, followed by an event handler for activities from another example and the Unity core and gamekit plugins.
The setup:
macOS 15.6
Xcode 26 beta 6 (also tried with 5)
Physical iPhone device running iOS 18.6.1
Unity 2022.3.62f1, which satisfies the requirements
Unity plugin, Xcode setup, and build steps:
I Followed the official beta branch build steps for Unity plugins with python3 build.py -m iOS iPhoneSimulator macOS -p Core GameKit which ran through after a slight modification for the macOS target that somehow contained an unknown team reference for the GameKitWrapper project, which I changed to not reference a team and use ‘sign to run locally’, as was the case for the other packages. As far as I understood the macOS version is not strictly necessary either way just for running it on a local iOS device(?)
I Imported these as tarball packages into the empty Unity 2022.3.62f1 project as per the official instructions, which seems to work as expected
Added a single script with the mentioned example code added in a MonoBehavior.Start
Building in Unity works as expected as well, creating the Xcode project
The Unity-iPhone target has the GameKit framework linked (’do not embed’) and the GameCenter capability was added automatically as expected
The GameKit framework seems to not be added to the UnityFramework target, but I don’t think this is necessary? Quickly testing this with the GameKit framework added there as well didn’t make a difference
The linked GameKit framework is indeed the expected Xcode 26 beta version
I can then build and run this on the physical iPhone iOS 18.6.1 device, where I get an ‘UnsupportedOperationForOSVersion’ as soon as I try to subscribe to deeplinking events (GKGameActivity.WantsToPlay) or use other GameKit Activity functionality from the official examples:
// log showing that it's actually running on iOS 18.6:
[Apple.Core Plug-In Runtime] Availability Runtime Environment: iOS 18.6
Apple.Core.Availability:OnApplicationStart()
// and the exception I get:
GameKitException: Code=-7 Domain=GKErrorDomain Description=The operation couldn’t be completed. (GKErrorDomain error -7.) (UnsupportedOperationForOSVersion)
at Apple.GameKit.DefaultNSErrorHandler.ThrowNSError (System.IntPtr nsErrorPtr) [0x00000] in <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0
Rethrow as TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Apple.GameKit.GKGameActivity' threw an exception.
I unfortunately didn’t find any clues as to why this happens and how to resolve it on this forum or otherwise.
Changing the minimum iOS version - up to 18.6 from the previously used (Unity export default) 12.0 for any and all targets - did not yield a different result
I'd rather not update the phone to use the iOS 26 beta, though as far as I understood this is not necessary
Any pointers to what I might be missing or doing wrong are greatly appreciated!
Thank you very much in advance!
I've noticed that in iOS 26, Navigation Bar Items' Image Insets parameters as set in Xcode are not being read correctly. Specifically, it appears that on iOS 26 beta, negative inset numbers are being read as positive.
Feedback report FB19838333 includes a sample project demonstrating this bug.
Since the ios 26 beta our app is crashing when calling LoadRequest() on the wkwebview class.
The app crashes out completely when it occurs even in the debugger, I was able to get a stack trace from our Sentry crash handler. See below
It seems that calling LoadRequest from the mainthread fixes the issue but I don't understand why, theres no documentation to suggest this must be done.
Any ideas?

On the new macOS Tahoe Beta, we are noticing the prompts coming from macOS like the credential prompts, SFAuthorization prompts are displaying the icons as left aligned. Is this change an intentional change on macOS Tahoe? or is this going to be adjusted in upcoming versions?
An app with a UIToolbar pinned to the bottom of a view controllers view extends to the screen edge (behind the safe area) when run on iOS 18.X but not iOS 26.
This UIToolbar is set as constrained to the safeAreaLayoutGuide with the following constraints.
self.view.addConstraints([
bottomToolbar.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.leadingAnchor),
bottomToolbar.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.trailingAnchor),
bottomToolbar.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.bottomAnchor),
bottomToolbar.heightAnchor.constraint(greaterThanOrEqualToConstant: 44.0)
])
This is especially noticeable when the UIToolbar background color differs from the view background color.
This occurs on iOS 26 beta 6, app built with Xcode 26 beta 5.
I've posted a Feedback FB19664903 including a minimal Xcode workspace that reproduces this issue.
Anyone suggestions would be appreciated ... this definitely seems like a regression.

Maybe I am doing something wrong with the new LiquidGlass sidebar using iPadOS 26 Beta 7, but when using this code, in stead of the List being centered between the sidebar and the rest of the screen, the cell itself extends beneath the sidebar but the content stays clear of the sidebar, giving a weird visual effect. Not my expected behavior at least.
Any ideas? Or just a bug?
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationSplitView {
Text("Test")
} detail: {
List {
Text("ContentMargin")
}
.contentMargins(.horizontal, 100.0)
}
}
}
#Preview {
ContentView()
}
This was on iPad OS 18:
Hi,
I'm updating my iPhone app (iPhone only) to be ready with iOS 26.
I'm building my app using Xcode 26.0 beta 6 (17A5305f) and testing it on an iPad running iPadOS 26 (23A5326a).
I found an issue with my new app icon updated using Icon Composer and I was able to find the issue.
An iPhone only app running on iPadOS 26 doesn't use the provided app icon. It always displays the "standard" light icon.
I just added iPad in Supported Destinations and the app icon now respect light/dark/translucent/tinted modes on the Home Screen.
I submitted feedback FB19768667
Hi all,
Recently, I received feedback from users that the cell of UITableView will be enlarged when clicked on the iOS26 system. After positioning, it was found that the iOS26 system has reset the frame of the contentView so that its width is always the screen width. The following Demo can reproduce this problem. Does anyone have this problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks
Run and click on the cell to see the problem

An iOS app has a UINavigationController with a UINavigationBar that is non-translucent (e.g. black). When performing a push (or pop) to navigate to or from another UIViewController the UIBarButtonItems on the navigation bar are flashing a white background. With a dark navigation bar this is very noticeable and not desirable.
This only occurs when run on iOS 26 and is related to Liquid Glass
I've created FB19660024 with a minimal Xcode workspace to reproduce, along with a video showing the behavior.
This is a cosmetic bug, not affecting functionality, but is a very undesirable effect on apps with dark and non-translucent navigation bars.
Has anyone else seen this and found a workaround?
I was excited about the new APIs added to Network.framework in iOS 26 that offer structure concurrency support out of the box and a more modern API design in general.
However I have been unable to use them to create a device-to-device QUIC connection.
The blocker I ran into is that NetworkListener's run method requires the network protocol to conform to OneToOneProtocol, whereas QUIC conforms to MultiplexProtocol. And there doesn't seem to be any way to accept an incoming MultiplexProtocol connection? Nor does it seem possible to turn a UDP connection into a QUIC connection using NetworkConnection.prependProtocols() as that also only works for network protocols conforming to OneToOneProtocol.
I suspect this is an accidental omission in the API design (?), and already filed a Feedback (FB18620438).
But maybe I am missing something and there is a workaround or a different way to listen for incoming QUIC connections using the new NetworkListener?
QUIC.TLS has methods peerAuthenticationRequired(Bool) and peerAuthenticationOptional(Bool), which makes me think that peer to peer QUIC connections are intended to be supported?
I would also love to see documentation for those methods. For example I wonder what exact effect peerAuthenticationRequired(false) and peerAuthenticationOptional(false) would have and how they differ.
An app built on Xcode 26 (beta4) presents various UIViewCOntrollers. Presentation of any UIViewController that contains a UIToolbar leads to a UIKit crash when run on an iOS 18.5 device, it does not crash when run on iOS 26.
The exception logged:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidUnarchiveOperationException', reason: 'Could not instantiate class named TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView because no class named TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView was found; the class needs to be defined in source code or linked in from a library (ensure the class is part of the correct target)'
Anyone else seen this?
I've submitted a bug report via Feedback Assistant, including a minimal Xcode workspace that reproduces the crash, hoping this will get some attention.
It seems that beta 3 broke StoreKit Testing when running against an iOS 26 simulator device. Specifically, when validating product IDs, the debug console displays messages like the following:
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
[492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue)
In addition, the SKProductsResponse (I am using the original StoreKit API), lists all requested product IDs in invalidProductIdentifiers. The products array is empty.
StoreKit Testing behaves as expected when Xcode 26 beta 3 is run against an iOS 18.4 simulator device.
A bottom accessory view is set on the UITabBarController. When changing the window size either by dragging the resizing grip or when going to portrait mode, the accessory view shrinks down to the smaller width. When resizing the window to make it larger, the accessory view doesn’t resize to the full available width.
During a workshop setup by Apple, folks from Apple told me that the view set as the content view of the UITabAccessory should not have its frame changed, either by using Auto Layout or by setting the frame. It seems logical since the view in the bottom accessory is supposed to resize accordingly to several factors, like when going inline inside the tab bar.
Am I missing something? Maybe there is additional setup required not mentioned in the dedicated video.
Feedback is FB19017330. It contains a sample project and videos demonstrating the issue. Reproduced on Xcode 26 beta 6 (17A5305f)
I copy and paste the sample code that setups the bottom accessory for good measure.
