Wrong fonts loaded from Storyboards in Xcode 15
We use Storyboards and custom fonts in our app. Once we started developing new features for iOS 17 and did the first build in Xcode 15, we've noticed that in quite a few places incorrect fonts are set to views. In some places it is incorrect weight, while in other it's completely different font. Some observations: Fonts may change the next time app is build. E.g., instead of SF Pro Display Semibold we got SF Pro Display Heavy, and then after few relaunches it switched to Nunito Bold 😵‍💫 We’ve ensured that correct font is set in Storyboard, and even tried to re-assign it. That didn’t help. All custom fonts are properly added to a target and are registered in info.plist All custom fonts are listed in UIFont.familyNames, so they are indeed registered with the system. Wrong fonts are loaded on both development environment and in TestFlight builds We’ve never experienced anything similar before Xcode 15 What we've tried: Re-assigning fonts in Storyboard. Creating new Storyboard in Xcode 15 and copying screens into it. I wonder if anybody else having similar issues and maybe knows the workaround. Thank you. P.S. I've filed a Feedback to Apple: FB12903371

How to fix: IPA BINARY CODE ANALYSIS in iOS swift
I received the MOBSF security check result PDF, where I found some "High" severity issues. 1.Binary makes use of insecure API(s) with high CWE: CWE-676: Use of Potentially Dangerous Function OWASP Top 10: M7: Client Code Quality OWASP MASVS: MSTG-CODE-8. The binary may contain the following insecure API(s): _sscanf, _memcpy, _fopen. 2.Binary makes use of the malloc function with high CWE: CWE-789: Uncontrolled Memory Allocation OWASP Top 10: M7: Client Code Quality OWASP MASVS: MSTG-CODE-8. The binary may use the _malloc function instead of calloc. I have utilized a static analyzer, but I am unable to identify the APIs such as _sscanf and others in my codebase. This issue is not being shown in Xcode IDE either. I have attempted static analysis in Xcode using the approach: Product -> Analyze, but I am still unable to identify the mentioned issues. Can anyone please help me overcome this scenario and successfully pass the MOBSF test? Thanks in Advance

Large Title Navigation Bar Problems with Two Views
As has been posted a number of times, the large title navigation bar only collapses on scrolling for the UIView listed first in an .xib or storyboard file. In my case, I have an enclosing view containing 2 Views, a TableView and a CollectionView in an .XIB file. This is connected to a UIKit class. Tapping a button switches between the two views. If the TableView is the first view listed, the navigationbar collapses with scrolling but with the CollectionView listed second, the large title navigation bar doesn't collapse with scrolling. Alternatively, if the CollectionView is the first view listed, the navigation bar collapses with scrolling but with the TableView listed second, the large title navigation bar doesn't collapse with scrolling. I have not been able to figure out a way to enable the collapsable large title navigation bar to work in such a scenario as mine for both views within a container view. Is there a way to do this? I have tested this capability through iOS 17.

Prevent Large Title from Moving Down when Refreshing TableView
I have implemented the Large Title for UITableView correctly. The Navigation bar collapses when scrolling down the table view. However, when pulling to refresh, the Large Title moves down the screen instead of staying stationary. I suspect that this is the default behavior. Is there a way to keep the large title stationary when pulling downward to refresh the UITableView?

Need to remove a button image and use new xcode features
HI, I have an older app that used a button with an image in a storyboard that is also localized. The image was just a red button with rounded corners, white stroke outline, and two lines of white text. (actually two words on top of each other) Now I see that I should be able to create this button with the new xcode button features. I want to try that, by removing the old image and just setting the configuration boxes. I see under the Attributes view, there is the setting with my image fileaname,but no dropdown box to set like "none" or an abiltity to remove it right there at the setting of it. I didn't want to delete the button since it would wipe out the connected code etc. I want to be able to translate the two words to other languages as well. I can't find instructions for this particular task. I guess it's too trivial but I just not figuring it out. I keep deleting the whole button. And now the constraints are all gone so I need to use the new xcode to set it backup. thanks for any guidance with the xcode interface! Chrissie

Adding Fonts in Xcode 16.1 Causes XIB Files to Malfunction
I encountered a problem when adding a new custom font in Xcode 16.1. After including the font and opening my XIB files, the interface preview became blank and the application seemed to experience a heavy load. To troubleshoot, I removed all custom fonts, and everything returned to normal functionality. However, even after reinstalling Xcode, the issue persisted when adding the font again. The XIB preview loaded correctly: The XIB preview turned blank and became unresponsive:

Rooted iPhone 15 Pro
iOS 18.2 (22C152) My phone is currently on lockdown mode and I have gotten alerts from Experian that my information is on the dark web as well as having to reset all my accounts. However this has not fixed the issue. Even if I hard factory reset settings etc the root makes its way very shortly after, if not immediately. Though I recently got these notifications and purchased the phone in Feb. 2024 the has been an ongoing issue for a few years. I can elaborate if needed. To make it short I have a reinstalled root on my phone. Apple nor Spectrum (who I have my phone with) have been able to assist with this issue. I have been able to clarify this ”hijacking” with the Geek Squad who didn’t want their legal team involved when asking for a report so the PD can do an internal cyber investigation. So, I’ve just lived with it. Let me know what your thoughts to resolve this issue would be before spending thousands to find a resolution on my own. Side note before asked: what I’ve been told may be it’s ”gateway” is via “DNS hijacking” with WiFi or internally hotspot. I can also elaborate if needed-I’m not a web developer, however I do know where this issue stems from whom has their masters in such industry as well as 30 years experience. It’s annoying and inconvenient at this point and I’m looking for clarity, resolution and if no justice for the criminal then liability. thank you! please refrain from saying “APpLe CaNt bE hiJaCked“ ..

How can one suppress SF Symbol deprecation warnings?
Xcode 16 insists on showing deprecations of this type: Some.xib SF Symbol 'doc.on.doc' is deprecated, use 'document.on.document' instead. The problem is that the XIBs in question are set with a Deployment Target of macOS 12, where "document.on.document" actually isn't available and produces a missing image. So the warnings are wrong, as they ignore the deployment target set on the XIB. I filed a bug against this long ago and it was ignored. Having given up... does anyone know how to disable this particular warning?

Does adding a bar button item to the navigation bar programmatically when offering scene support differ from the old app delegate approach
I have used the following code for years to add a right bar button item to the navigation bar, but for some unknown reason, this no longer works. It stopped working when I updated my app to have Scene support. I don't understand what is preventing this code from working. @interface ViewController () @end @implementation ViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; // Do any additional setup after loading the view. NSLog(@"viewDidLoad"); // Add a Share Button UIBarButtonItem *shareButton; shareButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemAction target:self action:@selector(editProject:)]; self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = shareButton; self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor]; } -(void) editProject:(id)sender { } @end To test this, I created a brand new test app that does nothing except for attempting to add this button. The autogenerated code gives you the following project and I simply modified the ViewController class as shown above: What do I need to do differently to make the right bar button item to display? I know that I can add buttons using the storyboard that can be controlled via IBOutlets, but just want to know if its still possible to do this programmatically.
