We're seeing sporadic crashes on devices running iOS 18.1 - both beta and release builds (22B83). The stack trace is always identical, a snippet of it below. As you can tell from the trace, it's happening in places we embed SwiftUI into UIKit via UIHostingController. Anyone else seeing this? 4 libobjc.A.dylib 0xbe2c _objc_fatalv(unsigned long long, unsigned long long, char const*, char*) + 30 5 libobjc.A.dylib 0xb040 weak_register_no_lock + 396 6 libobjc.A.dylib 0xac50 objc_storeWeak + 472 7 libswiftCore.dylib 0x43ac34 swift_unknownObjectWeakAssign + 24 8 SwiftUI 0xeb74c8 _UIHostingView.base.getter + 160 9 SwiftUI 0x92124 _UIHostingView.layoutSubviews() + 112 10 SwiftUI 0x47860 @objc _UIHostingView.layoutSubviews() + 36

In Xcode's (version 16.1) "Devices and Simulators" window pressing the device's context menu item "Show Provisioning Profiles..." does nothing: no new window, no message, nothing. How can I fix this?

From https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/803945?answerId=862153022#862153022, the testing of Age Range API was not available through xcode simulator back in Oct 2025. Is this available now? In particular: Is requestAgeRange testing available through simulator? Is requestAgeRange testing with sandbox account available through simulator? Is isEligibleForAgeFeatures available through simulator? Is isEligibleForAgeFeatures testing with sandbox account available through simulator? If the answer is "yes" to any of the above, which version of the xcode and ios version should I use? So far I didn't get any of the above working on the simulator, and I can't find any documentation on the answers above. Thank you!

I have a FORD F250 2021. I returned for a deployment, and CarPlay does not work in my vehicle. I have tried all the YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram videos I could find. They all actually started to repeat, so I decided to come here. My wife has an iPhone 16 Pro Max, and it connects to CarPlay without any issues. Other than all the social media suggestions, do you have any other suggestions? No, I am not ready to purchase a new device.

Our iOS app supports CarPlay capability with the Driving task. The app is also configured to wake in the background on geofence entry or exit events, even from a terminated (killed) state. We would like to understand how to detect whether CarPlay is connected to the iPhone when the app wakes up or runs in the background. In this case, the CarPlay app is not actively running in the Car infotainment system foreground. Requirement: The app should perform a background task only when CarPlay is connected, including when launched in the background or from a killed state due to a geofence trigger. Could you please advise on the recommended way or API to determine CarPlay connection status in this background scenario? Thanks for the support!

Since updating to Tahoe and Xcode 26 I have found that the UISplitViewController.showDetailViewController() is not working in the iPhone version of my app (it is a universal app). I'm just trying to show a detail view after a tap on a UITableView item. The iPad versions are all working correctly. Has anyone else experienced this or have any advice about what may have changed? Thanks in advance.

We are facing an issue: push notifications are not being received. We are using the Marketing Cloud SDK for push notifications. On install, the app correctly registers for push notifications. We pass the required information to Marketing Cloud — for example, contact key, token, etc. Marketing Cloud also confirms that the configuration is set up, and we have tried sending push notifications with proper delivery settings. The issue is that after some time, the device gets automatically opted out in the Marketing Cloud portal. When we consulted their team, they said this is caused by the “DeviceTokenNotForTopic” error received from APNs. I have verified the certificates and bundle ID from my end — everything looks correct. Device: iPhone 15, iPhone 17 iOS: 18.7.2, 26.1

Hello, maybe anyone know anything about HCE (Host card emulation) feature on iOS? As far as I read, it's not possible to achieve this functionality on iOS, but maybe there are plans to implement that? Or maybe it's clear that it wont be allowed to be used at all? Thanks:)

I have been experimenting with the BGContinuedProcessingTask API recently (and published sample code for it https://github.com/infinitepower18/BGContinuedProcessingTaskDemo) I have noticed that if I lock the phone, the code that runs as part of the task stops executing. My sample code simply updates the progress each second until it gets to 100, so it should be completed in 1 minute 40 seconds. However, after locking the phone and checking the lock screen a few seconds later the progress indicator was in the same position as before I locked it. If I leave the phone locked for several minutes and check the lock screen the live activity says "Task failed". I haven't seen anything in the documentation regarding execution of tasks while the phone is locked. So I'm a bit confused if I encountered an iOS bug here?

The Paste button (using UIPasteControll) located on UINavigationBar is not shown at application startup on iOS/iPadOS 26. This issue will disappear when device is rotated or window size is changed. And this issue does not occur on iOS / iPadOS 18 and earlier. I uploaded the sample project to github at the following URL. https://github.com/gpn-galapagos/PasteButtonApp.git Has anyone had the same issue or knows a workaround?

After the iOS 26 update, unwanted animations appear on UIButton. I'm using the attributedTitle property of UIButton.Configuration to change the button's text, and an animation appears after iOS 26. (It's unclear whether it's after iOS 26.0 or iOS 26.1, but it likely started with 26.1.) The peculiar thing is that the animation only starts appearing on buttons that have been pressed once. I tried using UIView.performWithoutAnimation and CATransaction's begin(), setDisableActions(true), commit(), but it didn't work. How should I solve this? Below is the code for changing the button's text. func updateTitle() { let keys = type.keys if keys.count == 1 { guard let key = keys.first else { return } if key.count == 1 { if Character(key).isLowercase { self.configuration?.attributedTitle = AttributedString(key, attributes: AttributeContainer([.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 24, weight: .regular), .foregroundColor: UIColor.label])) } else if Character(key).isUppercase { self.configuration?.attributedTitle = AttributedString(key, attributes: AttributeContainer([.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 22, weight: .regular), .foregroundColor: UIColor.label])) } else { self.configuration?.attributedTitle = AttributedString(key, attributes: AttributeContainer([.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 22, weight: .regular), .foregroundColor: UIColor.label])) } } else { self.configuration?.attributedTitle = AttributedString(key, attributes: AttributeContainer([.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 18, weight: .regular), .foregroundColor: UIColor.label])) } } else { let joined = keys.joined(separator: "") self.configuration?.attributedTitle = AttributedString(joined, attributes: AttributeContainer([.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 22, weight: .regular), .foregroundColor: UIColor.label])) } }

Hello, I am building a Content Filter app for iOS and would like to get access to some information about network connections that are happening on the device. I managed to have the handle(_ report: NEFilterReport) method of my NEFilterControlProvider called, but the bytesOutboundCount and bytesInboundCount properties of the report are always 0. How can I have the real byte count of the connection ?

On iOS 18 and lower version, my application supports automatically switching to [System settings - Personal Hotspot] directly. But on iOS 26, my application will be redirected to [System settings- Apps]. Does iOS 26 disable the behavior of directly jumping to the system hotspot page? If support, could you share the API for iOS 26?

I am making an iOS step counting app and I have included a widget in the design. I would like to get the widget to pull data from the main app to display step count etc so I created a bundle id for the widget and have been trying to use a group id to link them together. The group capabilities for both seem to be set up/enabled properly with the same App Groups id, but I've been getting an error in xcode which says, " 'Provisioning Profile: "BUNDLE_ID" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.security.application-groups entitlement.' Try Again But the identifiers do have the App Group id enabled. I have tried automatic signing, manual signing with generated profiles, unchecking and rechecking auto-signing, removing and re-adding the group capability. Creating a new bundle id from scratch, creating a new group id from scratch. Always I get the error. I've really pulled my hair out troubleshooting this and would appreciate support. I'm happy to answer and questions or share details. Thank you.

It seems to be that the functionality of the method setViewController:forColumn: in the column-style layout of a UISplitViewController has changed. iOS 18: setViewController:forColumn: pushes a new view controller onto the UINavigationController if it existed before the call. iOS 26: setViewController:forColumn: sets or replaces the view controller with a new view controller as a root of a new UINavigationController. My questions: what is the intended behavior? I did not find any documentation about a change. how do I replace in iOS 18 the old view controller with the new view controller passed to setViewController:forColumn:?

Hello everyone! I found a weird behavior with the animation of Menucomponent on iOS 26.1 When the menu disappear the animation is very glitchy You can find here a sample of code to reproduce it @available(iOS 26.0, *) struct MenuSample: View { var body: some View { GlassEffectContainer { HStack { Menu { Button("Action 1") {} Button("Action 2") {} Button("Delete", role: .destructive) {} } label: { Image(systemName: "ellipsis") .padding() } Button {} label: { Image(systemName: "xmark") .padding() } } .glassEffect(.clear.interactive()) } } } @available(iOS 26.0, *) #Preview { MenuSample() .preferredColorScheme(.dark) } I did two videos: iOS 26.0 iOS 26.1 Thanks for your help

My team recently released an app to the iOS app store. We are trying to add the Smart App Banner to our website to promote the app, but the banner is not shown. When the page loads, there is a flash of an empty Smart App Banner before it is automatically dismissed. This happens on every page load. If I put use an app ID of other apps the banner appears. I've triple checked that I'm using the correct app ID. So it seems like it is an issue with my app. I can see my app in the App Store, so I know it's available. I've tested on multiple phones.

Device: iPhone 17 Pro iOS Version: iOS 26.1 Camera: Ultra-wide (0.5x) using AVCaptureSession Our camera app freezes on iPhone 17 when switching frame rates (30fps ↔ 60fps). This works fine on iPhone 16 Pro and earlier. What We've Observed: Freeze happens on frame rate change - particularly when stabilization was enabled Thread.sleep is used - to allow camera hardware to settle before re-enabling stabilization Works on older iPhones - only iPhone 17 exhibits this behavior Console shows these errors before freeze: 17281 <<<< FigXPCUtilities >>>> signalled err=18446744073709534335 <<<< FigCaptureSourceRemote >>>> err=-17281 Is Thread.sleep on the main thread causing the freeze? Should all camera configuration be on a background queue? Is there something specific about iPhone 17 ultra-wide camera that requires different handling? Should we use session.beginConfiguration() / session.commitConfiguration() instead of direct device configuration? Is calling setFrameRate from a property's didSet (which runs synchronously) problematic? Are the FigCaptureSourceRemote errors (-17281) indicative of the problem, and what do they mean?

Hi everyone, I want users not to see the system context menu when long-pressing text on a page in Safari on iOS. I found on MDN that the CSS property -webkit-touch-callout: none; can achieve this. But in reality, it doesn't really work. MDN documents URL: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/Properties/-webkit-touch-callout Here’s a minimal example: function preventIOSSafariContextMenu() { if (document.getElementById(STYLE_ELEMENT_ID)) return; if (!IS_TOUCH_DEVICE) return; const style = document.createElement("style"); style.id = STYLE_ELEMENT_ID; style.textContent = ` html, body { -webkit-touch-callout: none !important; } `; (document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(style); } The context menu persists. Has anyone else encountered this? Is this an intentional change in WebKit, or could it be a regression? If it’s intentional, is there a recommended alternative? Thanks in advance for any insights!

Hello! What UIKit API enables you to add a view below the navigation bar and extend the scroll edge effect below it in iOS 26? safeAreaBar is how you do it in SwiftUI but I need to achieve this design in my UIKit app (which has a collection view in a view controller in a navigation controller). struct ContentView: View { let segments = ["First", "Second", "Third"] @State private var selectedSegment = "First" var body: some View { NavigationStack { List(0..<50, id: \.self) { i in Text("Row \(i + 1)") } .safeAreaBar(edge: .top) { Picker("Segment", selection: $selectedSegment) { ForEach(segments, id: \.self) { Text($0) } } .pickerStyle(.segmented) .padding(.horizontal) .padding(.bottom, 8) } .navigationTitle("Title") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } } }
