Overview When a project contains SwiftData and the Preview uses a in memory database, SwiftUI preview doesn't show the data Have a look at the ContentView preview Environment Xcode 27.0 beta (27A5194q) 26.5.1 (25F80) Feedback FB23041713 Please can you have a look at the feedback, it also has a sample project and screenshot

Hi, Xcode 27 markdown rendering look fantastic, a big thanks to everyone who contributed to it. Truly such a delight seeing rendered beautifully!! I didn't see it explained in any of the Xcode sessions, if there are WWDC sessions or documentation on this please let me know. Questions Tables get rendered really well, how can I add or remove columns in a table? For links I noticed that I needed to add the link first and then title for the link later, or are there alternate ways?

Hi, On Xcode 27, whenever I create a new Project and select App, an untitled project is created. What is good: When I go on to save the project, the project name uses it to update target name which is nice. Problem: Every time it uses a placeholder team ID, I have to go and manually update the bundle ID and team. This could also lead to unnecessary provisioning profiles created with placeholder IDs. Proposal FB23033844 Xcode to use the last used Bundle ID and Team. This will be similar to how things were in Xcode 26

Hi, On Xcode 27, Device Hub, how to view the simulator with Point Accurate and Pixel Accurate window sizes? These are existing options on Xcode 26 Simulator, so would be nice to have them in Xcode 27 Device Hub. This would be needed sometimes to quickly measure things using a on screen ruler. Feedback FB23033231 If there is no option currently can you please provide options to provide to view Point Accurate and Pixel Accurate window sizes

As the title says, I'd like to run a macOS 27 VM on my Mac (the host is on macOS 26.5.1) in order to test my apps without having to update my host to a beta. My virtualization app of choice (VirtualBuddy) fails on installation when I use the restore image for macOS 27.0 (26A5353q) from the developer website. The developer of VirtualBuddy believes this is a macOS limitation (https://github.com/insidegui/VirtualBuddy/discussions/683). (I filed FB22977958, but I'm not sure if they filed their own bug.) Is there a workaround? It'd be very nice to have access to this during WWDC week. Usually I'd look for device support files on the developer website for download and/or install the Xcode beta first, but I've already installed the Xcode beta and there don't seem to be any device support files available.

After I enabled Enhanced Beta Feedback in Privacy setting, several minutes later when I came back, it was turned off… I don’t know why… This happened many times. Anyone encountered the same issue?

User might be caught in a Guided Access page with error like this when they trying to leave Guided Access. Please pardon me for shotting a photo with phone to show this condition, because I can't even get a screenshot with home button and power key pressed together. I can't lock the screen with power key or by the magnet sensor, can't get back home page with home button. The ways to exit is waiting for the exit button might could use, or the screen shutdown, or enforce the device to shutdown. After exit the Guided Access without rebooting the system, the Guided Access would be freezed for minutes, noticing the Guided Access can't be used. In iPadOS 26, since, I can prove confidently, 26.5beta1 even earlier, could discover that issue. The problem could happen several times in a day. I have raised that issue since April 25th and the ID is FB22608734, which has more than 10 similar reports. To say something beyond the issue, actually I guessed that my device, iPad mini 5th, might can't get the update of iPadOS 27, so I hoped that Apple Developer Teams could at least fix those annoying problems. Actually there is a long list in Chinese with problems summarised by some Chinese User I waited for a long time for a miracle in WWDC 27. But that's a miracle.

After MacOS 26.6 Beta (25G5028f), I see my hard drive constantly filling up in the system data area. It's not local snapshots because I deleted those and they only took up about 20 GB worth of space. This morning, the hard drive was down to only 500MB of space. The odd thing is if I reboot, it goes back to normal and I am back to around 250GB or my 500GB drive. This only started happened in 26.6 Beta, so I am thinking there is an issue with that update?

This started happening on iOS 26.5, and it is still happening after updating to iOS 26.6 beta. The issue is severe enough that my Apple devices are currently not usable for basic communication. I have lost money, time, and thought way too much about this, so I’m really hoping for a resolution. After setting up an iPhone 14 Pro Max on my Apple Account/iCloud, my Contacts, Messages, Phone, and related Apple communication services became essentially nonfunctional. This started after adding the iPhone 14 Pro Max, but it is no longer isolated to that phone. The issue has spread across my Apple devices, including my iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPad, and Mac. Current Affected devices/apps: iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 14 Pro Max iPad Pro Mac Mini M4 Contacts Messages Phone/calls FaceTime or other calling/contact-related services iCloud Contacts / Apple Account syncing The apps themselves become unusable. When I open Contacts, Messages, Phone, or related services, I usually get a blank/white screen, a frozen interface, or a briefly visible cached state. Sometimes I can see old message previews or the previous app state for a split second, especially after force restarting or using the app switcher, but I cannot scroll, select, call, text, or use the interface normally. After about 10 to 15 seconds, the app freezes or crashes. This affects essentially all normal communication functions. I cannot open Contacts. I cannot read or use Messages normally. I cannot place or answer calls. I cannot use my contact list. I cannot use any of my phone numbers or receive verification codes to my phone number. The same failure appears across devices signed into the same Apple Account/iCloud. Contacts still appear to exist on iCloud.com, which makes me think this may be an iCloud Contacts, Apple Account sync, contact-card corruption, or cross-device sync corruption issue rather than simply a local device problem. Troubleshooting already attempted: Updated to iOS 26.6 beta Factory reset the iPhone more than once Tried restoring from backup Tried setting up from zero / fresh setup Tried force restarting Tried resetting SIM/cellular settings Tried setting up with no SIM Confirmed accounts were logged in Confirmed mail/accounts were present and Contacts were enabled where applicable Contacted Apple Support Apple Support escalated the case to a senior engineer Apple Support diagnostics reportedly came back “fine” or “flying colors,” but the devices are still unusable Posted on Apple Support Community, but apple deleted my post and told me to post on the developer forum because I mentioned I updated to iOS 26.6 is beta software.... One possible thing: before this started, I had an AI agent attempt to update my personal contact card with a new phone number. This is an operation that normally goes well, but it was my personal card. I did not verify exactly what it changed. I do not know if this is related, but I am mentioning it because the issue feels like something corrupted in the Apple Account/iCloud contact or identity layer, and somebody in my last thread mentioned emoji or unusual characters might cause this kind of issue. It might have changed my card with some unusual character, field, label, or operation that broke iCloud syncing. Another clue: this started after adding the iPhone 14 Pro Max to my Apple Account/iCloud. After that, the issue began affecting the rest of my Apple devices too. That is why I believe this belongs under iCloud / Apple Account / Contacts syncing rather than only iPhone.

I have received this installation error attempting to upgrade from MacOS 26.4 beta 2 to beta 3 on my Intel 2020 27” iMac, and now trying to install beta 4 from beta 3 on my M1 Max MBP. I have seen from a sprinkling of post that some others have had the same issue. I was able to successfully perform the 2 to 3 upgrade on the iMac in safe boot, suggesting possible compatible, third-party app. But that did not work for beta 4 on either device. I have submitted feedback for each episode. Any others have this issue? Unusual for Apple, I have never had any issues installing beta software before.

I just filed a bug report for the Notes app as follows:Area: Notes Summary: When opening Notes with content that is larger than the open Notes App window, and attempting to edit the note, the entire note content scrolls automatically to the top although the cursor remains where text editing was inserted. Typing on the Smart Keyboard will allow text entry however the note insistently keeps scrolling to the top regardless of how often or how much text is entered into the note. Scrolling the note manually with your touch will stop the action from occurring, however that is intermittent and sometimes will scroll automatically as well. This issue will occur on both iPad and iPhone and regardless of the app is used full screen on the iPad or in Split Screen. When the Notes window is not focused and the user is engaging an app in the other split screen window, the Note window does not scroll, only when it is the focused App. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Notes2. Begin to edit the note by scrolling down and selecting text or placing your cursor to enter text.3. More likely to happen with a note which has enough text to enable scrolling of the note.Expected Results: The note body of text should not scroll while editing or entering text and should remain where placed either by scrolling to the place of entry with using touch or with moving the cursor with the direction keys of the Smart Keyboard. Actual Results: The note scrolls on its own without intervention. Version: IOS Beta 10.0(14A5261v) Configuration: iPad Pro 12.9" and iPhone 6S both with iOS beta 10.0

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’m a registered iOS developer, and I’ve been facing an issue with installing iOS developer updates for the past couple of years. I can download the updates, but they get stuck at 99.9% complete and don’t finish. I’ve tried following the instructions to force restart the phone, but it stays on the Apple logo screen until it dies. I can update official iOS versions, but not beta versions. To update, I have to put the phone in DFU mode and install the update that way. This is frustrating and prevents me from making timely updates to my app and from diagnosing new issues during testing. I’d like to request that Apple investigate this issue and identify a solution. For reference, I’ve installed a bare-bones version with no new apps, and the problem persists. I would like a resolution that allows me to update normally without having to DFU the phone each time. This occurs via OTA or IPSW manual download and installation. Please refer to the following FB submission numbers: FB21642029 and FB21017894. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE RESPOND BACK TO THIS MESSAGE AND HELP ME TROUBLESHOOT THIS ISSUE?!

On Sonoma beta 7, if system.login.screensaver is updated to use “authenticate-session-owner-or-admin”, and then Lock Screen is not hiding the macOS Desktop. Step1. Update system.login.screensaver authorizationdb rule to use “authenticate-session-owner-or-admin”( to get old SFAutorizationPluginView at Lock Screen ). Step 2. Once the rule is in place after logout and login, now click on Apple icon and select “Lock Screen”. Even after selecting Lock Screen, complete macOS Desktop is visible with no control for the user to unlock the screen. To gain access we have to restart the MAC.

Summary When a SwiftUI widget uses a Link containing an Image modified with .widgetAccentedRenderingMode (using any mode except .fullColor), tapping the image on the widget launches the app but does not pass the expected deep link URL to the SceneDelegate. Steps to Reproduce Create a SwiftUI Widget View with a Link: struct ImageView: View { var image: UIImage var body: some View { Link(URL(string: "myapp://image")!) { Image(uiImage: image) .resizable() .widgetAccentedRenderingMode(.accentedDesaturated) // or any mode other than .fullColor .scaledToFill() .clipped() } } } Add Custom URL Scheme in Info.plist: <dict> <key>CFBundleURLName</key> <string>com.company.myapp</string> <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key> <array> <string>myapp</string> </array> </dict> Implement Deep Link Handling in SceneDelegate: func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) { if let url = connectionOptions.urlContexts.first?.url { handle(url) } } func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts urlContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) { if let url = urlContexts.first?.url { handle(url) } } private func handle(_ url: URL) { // Process URL here } Run the application on a device or simulator. Add the widget to the Home Screen. Tap the image inside the widget. Expected Result The application launches and receives the URL in SceneDelegate, as expected. Actual Result The application launches, but the URL is not passed to SceneDelegate. Both connectionOptions.urlContexts and openURLContexts are empty.

.navigationTitle disappears when using .toolbar and List inside NavigationStack (iOS 26 beta) Summary In iOS 26 beta, using .navigationTitle() inside a NavigationStack fails to render the title when combined with a .toolbar and a List. The title initially appears as expected after launch, but disappears after a second state transition triggered by a button press. This regression does not occur in iOS 18. Steps to Reproduce Use the SwiftUI code sample below (see viewmodel and Reload button for state transitions). Run the app on an iOS 26 simulator (e.g., iPhone 16). On launch, the view starts in .loading state (shows a ProgressView). After 1 second, it transitions to .loaded and displays the title correctly. Tap the Reload button — this sets the state back to .loading, then switches it to .loaded again after 1 second. ❌ After this second transition to .loaded, the navigation title disappears and does not return. Actual Behavior The navigation title displays correctly after the initial launch transition from .loading → .loaded. However, after tapping the “Reload” button and transitioning .loading → .loaded a second time, the title no longer appears. This suggests a SwiftUI rendering/layout invalidation issue during state-driven view diffing involving .toolbar and List. Expected Behavior The navigation title “Loaded Data” should appear and remain visible every time the view is in .loaded state. ✅ GitHub Gist including Screen Recording 👉 View Gist with full details Sample Code import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { private let vm = viewmodel() var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { switch vm.state { case .loading: ProgressView("Loading...") case .loaded: List { ItemList() } Button("Reload") { vm.state = .loading DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { vm.state = .loaded } } .navigationTitle("Loaded Data") } } .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { Menu { Text("hello") } label: { Image(systemName: "gearshape.fill") } } } } } } struct ItemList: View { var body: some View { Text("Item 1") Text("Item 2") Text("Item 3") } } @MainActor @Observable class viewmodel { enum State { case loading case loaded } var state: State = .loading init() { DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { self.state = .loaded } } }

Hi all, I have a build in "Waiting for Beta App Review" that has been stuck for more than three days, well beyond the typical 24-48 hour window. Context: • Internal-use app distributed via TestFlight only (no App Store release). • Uploaded approximately April 18, 2026. • No ITMS warnings, no rejection notice, no request for additional information. • A newer build was uploaded today (April 21, 2026). It processed correctly and is also now awaiting Beta App Review behind the older one. • I noticed another forum thread referencing FB22543589 / Case ID 102872835864, reporting TestFlight builds being flagged as Expired/unavailable overnight between April 20 and April 21, 2026. I would like to rule out whether my submission was affected by that incident. Questions: Has anyone else experienced Beta App Review delays during the week of April 20, 2026? Beyond filing a Feedback Assistant report, is there a recommended escalation path for stuck beta reviews? If my pending build was affected by the April 20-21 TestFlight incident, does re-uploading resolve it, or does the new build simply re-enter the same queue with the same delay? I have also submitted a support request via the Contact Us form, but wanted to check with the community in case others are seeing the same pattern this week. Thanks,

Updated to the latest developer beta and while on VPN I am no longer able to connect to any website with Safari. Firefox has no issues with the connection and the computer is definitely online. Firefox is able to load and use both internal pages and external sites, without any issue. Other apps on the computer are able to access the network. Safari fails immediately, with "There was a bad response from the server." If I enable developer mode and look at the network tab in Safari I don't see any requests going out for the pages, it just immediately loads ErrorPage.html and page-load-errors.css Disconnect from VPN and everything works again. Anyone else seeing this?

As of this morning, I have been unable to reach the Mac App Store or Test Flight .
