Using SwiftUI .sheet: ScrollView rendering issue when used inside NavigationStack
I am encounter an issue with the height of a ScrollView not rendering properly during the transition of a sheet from closed to open. This results in a gap between the bottom edge of the ScrollView and the bottom edge of the sheet during the animation. I am getting this issue when trying to use the ScrollView inside a NavigationStack and when using a PresentationDetent other than .large. The code snippet below, for example, suffers from the issue. ScrollView { Button("Reveal sheet") { isPresented = true } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .background(.yellow) .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { VStack { NavigationStack { ScrollView { ForEach(0..<100, id: \.self) { number in Text("\(number)") } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) } .background(.green) .presentationDetents([.medium]) } } } Here is what the issue looks like for this example. The issue occurs in: Simulator iPhone 16 iOS 18.4 Personal device (iPhone 16 iOS 18.4) Canvas preview

iOS 26: .tabViewBottomAccessory - How to open a new view on the tabViewBottomAccessory
If you are currently on the beta of iOS 26, open Apple Music and you'll see a tabViewBottomAccessory that is the mini NowPlayingView. When tapped, it opens the NowPlayingView. Is there a similar way to do this in SwiftUI? Looking through Apple's documentation, they do not specify any way to reproduce the same kind of view transition. This is the Apple Music app with the tabViewBottomAccessory. When clicked it opens the NowPlayingView

SwiftUI App Intent throws error when using requestDisambiguation with @Parameter property wrapper
I'm implementing an App Intent for my iOS app that helps users plan trip activities. It only works when run as a shortcut but not using voice through Siri. There are 2 issues: The ShortcutsTripEntity will only accept a voice input for a specific trip but not others. I'm stuck with a throwing error when trying to use requestDisambiguation() on the activity day @Parameter property. How do I rectify these issues. This is blocking me from completing a critical feature that lets users quickly plan activities through Siri and Shortcuts. Expected behavior for trip input: The intent should make Siri accept the spoken trip input from any of the options. Actual behavior for trip input: Siri only accepts the same trip when spoken but accepts any when selected by click/touch. Expected behavior for day input: Siri should accept the spoken selected option. Actual behavior for day input: Siri only accepts an input by click/touch but yet throws an error at runtime I'm happy to provide more code. But here's the relevant code: struct PlanActivityTestIntent: AppIntent { @Parameter(title: "Activity Day") var activityDay: ShortcutsItineraryDayEntity @Parameter( title: "Trip", description: "The trip to plan an activity for", default: ShortcutsTripEntity(id: UUID().uuidString, title: "Untitled trip"), requestValueDialog: "Which trip would you like to add an activity to?" ) var tripEntity: ShortcutsTripEntity @Parameter(title: "Activity Title", description: "The title of the activity", requestValueDialog: "What do you want to do or see?") var title: String @Parameter(title: "Activity Day", description: "Activity Day", default: ShortcutsItineraryDayEntity(itineraryDay: .init(itineraryId: UUID(), date: .now), timeZoneIdentifier: "UTC")) var activityDay: ShortcutsItineraryDayEntity func perform() async throws -> some ProvidesDialog { // ...other code... let tripsStore = TripsStore() // load trips and map them to entities try? await tripsStore.getTrips() let tripsAsEntities = tripsStore.trips.map { trip in let id = trip.id ?? UUID() let title = trip.title return ShortcutsTripEntity(id: id.uuidString, title: title, trip: trip) } // Ask user to select a trip. This line would doesn't accept a voice // answer. Why? let selectedTrip = try await $tripEntity.requestDisambiguation( among: tripsAsEntities, dialog: .init( full: "Which of the \(tripsAsEntities.count) trip would you like to add an activity to?", supporting: "Select a trip", systemImageName: "safari.fill" ) ) // This line throws an error let selectedDay = try await $activityDay.requestDisambiguation( among: daysAsEntities, dialog:"Which day would you like to plan an activity for?" ) } } Here are some related images that might help:

Different toolbar item placement for iPhone vs iPad
On iPhone, I would like to have a more button at the top right of the navigation bar, a search field in the bottom toolbar, and a plus button to the right of the search field. I've achieved this via the code below. But on iPad they should be in the navigation bar at the trailing edge from left to right: plus, more, search field. Just like the Shortcuts app, if there's not enough horizontal space, the search field should collapse into a button, and with even smaller space the search bar should become full-width under the navigation bar. Right now on iPad the search bar is full width under the navigation bar, more at top right, plus at bottom middle, no matter how big the window is. How can I achieve that? Any way to specify them for the system to more automatically do the right thing, or would I need to check specifically for iPhone vs iPad UIDevice to change the code? struct ContentView: View { @State private var searchText = "" var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Text("Hello, world!") } .navigationTitle("Test App") .searchable(text: $searchText) .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Menu { //... } label: { Label("More", systemImage: "ellipsis") } } DefaultToolbarItem(kind: .search, placement: .bottomBar) ToolbarSpacer(.fixed, placement: .bottomBar) ToolbarItem(placement: .bottomBar) { Button { print("Add tapped") } label: { Label("Add", systemImage: "plus") } } } } } }

How to hide scroll edge effect until scroll down
I present a view in a sheet that consists of a navigation stack and a scroll view which has a photo pushed to the top by setting .ignoresSafeArea(edges: .top). The problem is the top of the photo is blurry due to the scroll edge effect. I would like to hide the scroll edge effect so the photo is fully visible when scrolled to the top but let the effect become visible upon scrolling down. Is that possible? struct ContentView: View { @State private var showingSheet = false var body: some View { VStack { Button("Present Sheet") { showingSheet = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $showingSheet) { SheetView() } } } struct SheetView: View { @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss var body: some View { NavigationStack { ScrollView { VStack { Image("Photo") .resizable() .scaledToFill() } } .ignoresSafeArea(edges: .top) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .cancellationAction) { Button(role: .close) { dismiss() } } ToolbarItem { EditButton() } } } } }

Liquid glass: UIPageViewController inside UITabbarController adding blur effect always in iOS26
When using UIPageViewController inside a UITabBarController on iOS 26 with Liquid Glass adoption, visiting the PageViewController tab applies a blur effect to the navigation bar and tab bar even though the current child view controller of the pageView is not scrollable and does not reach behind these bars. Questions: Is this the expected behavior that the pageview's internal scroll view causes the bars to blur regardless of the page view's child content’s scrollability? If so, is there an official way to make the blur effect appear only when the pageview's current child view controller actually scrolls behind the navigation bar or tab bar, and not in static cases? Tried the same in SwiftUI using TabView and TabView with page style. Facing the same issue there as well. Sample screenshots for reference, Sample SwiftUI code, struct TabContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { // First Tab: Paging View PagingView() .tabItem { Label("Pages", systemImage: "square.fill.on.square.fill") } // Second Tab: Normal View NavigationStack { ListView() } .tabItem { Label("Second", systemImage: "star.fill") } // Third Tab: Normal View PageView(color: .blue, text: "Page 3") .tabItem { Label("Third", systemImage: "gearshape.fill") } } .ignoresSafeArea() } } struct PagingView: View { var body: some View { TabView { PageView(color: .red, text: "Page 1") PageView(color: .green, text: "Page 2") PageView(color: .blue, text: "Page 3") } .tabViewStyle(.page) // Enables swipe paging .indexViewStyle(.page(backgroundDisplayMode: .always)) .ignoresSafeArea()// Dots indicator } }

Looking for a mechanism in iPadOS 26 to 'split a window' into two adjacent windows like it worked in iPadOS 18.
With the new multi-windowing design in iPadOS 26, the behavior of openWindow() has changed. In iPadOS 18, if I called openWindow(), I would go from a full-screen window to two side-by-side windows. That allowed my app to meet the goal of the user; keep some information on the screen while being able to navigate through the app in the other window. In iPadOS 26 (beta 3), this no longer works. Instead, a new Window opens ON top of the current window. I am looking for some mechanism to help the user see that two windows are now present and then easily move them on the screen (tiled, side-by-side) or whatever else they would prefer.

Cannot get drop action to trigger (Xcode 26 beta 3)
I'm unable to find the right combination modifiers to get drag and drop to work using the new .draggable(containerItemID:) and dragContainer(for:in:selection:_:) modifiers. The drag is initiated with the item's ID, the item is requested from the .dragContainer modifier, but the drop closure is never triggered. Minimal repro: struct Item: Identifiable, Codable, Transferable { var id = UUID() var value: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { CodableRepresentation(contentType: .tab) } } struct DragDrop: View { @State var items: [Item] = [ Item(value: "Hello"), Item(value: "world"), Item(value: "something"), Item(value: "else") ] var body: some View { List(items) { item in HStack { Text(item.value) Spacer() } .contentShape(Rectangle()) .draggable(containerItemID: item.id) .dropDestination(for: Item.self) { items, session in print("Drop: \(items)") } } .dragContainer(for: Item.self) { itemID in print("Drag: \(itemID)") return items.filter { itemID == $0.id } } } } #Preview("Simple") { DragDrop() }

coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed
My iOS app supports iOS 18, and I’m using an encrypted CoreML model secured with a key generated from Xcode. Every few months (around every 3 months), the encrypted model fails to load for both me and my users. When I investigate, I find this error: coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed: noEntryFound("No records found"). Make sure the encryption key was generated with correct team ID To temporarily fix it, I delete the old key, generate a new one, re-encrypt the model, and submit an app update. This resolves the issue, but only for a while. This is a terrible experience for users and obviously not a sustainable solution. I want to understand: Why is this happening? Is there a known expiration or invalidation policy for CoreML encryption keys? How can I prevent this issue permanently? Any insights or official guidance would be really appreciated.

List View within a Scrollview
The bane of my existence has been designing interfaces where the whole view needs to scroll, but a portion is a List and the other portion is static. I run into this problem time and again so I was hoping someone has a good solution because we all know that embedding a List view inside ScrollView is a no-go within SwiftUI. It simply doesn't work. So what is a best practice when you need the whole screen to scroll, but a portion is a List? Use a navigation stack instead of a ScrollView? What if it's a child view of a navigation stack already?

PhaseAnimator without transition between phases
PhaseAnimator seems a good fit to play gifs in SwiftUI: struct ContentView: View { let frames = [UIImage(named: "frame-1")!, UIImage(named: "frame-2")!] var body: some View { PhaseAnimator(frames.indices) { index in Image(uiImage: frames[index]) } } } The problem is that by default, there's an opacity transition between phases. So I tried using transition(.identity): Image(uiImage: gif[index]) .transition(.identity) .id(index) It doesn't work. It stays frozen on the first frame. It does work if I set the transition to a small offset value: Image(uiImage: gif[index]) .transition(.offset(x: 0, y: 0.1)) .id(index) It does feel a bit hacky, though. Is this the expected behavior for .transition(.identity), or is it a bug?

How to show confirmationDialog from a Button in a Menu
I have a More button in my nav bar that contains a Delete action, and when you tap that I want to show a confirmation dialog before performing the deletion. In order words, I have a toolbar containing a toolbar item containing a menu containing a button that when tapped needs to show a confirmation dialog. In iOS 26, you're supposed to add the confirmationDialog on the view that presents the action sheet so that it can point to the source view or morph out of it if it's liquid glass. But when I do that, the confirmation dialog does not appear. Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? struct ContentView: View { @State private var showingDeleteConfirmation = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("👋, 🌎!") .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Menu { Button(role: .destructive) { showingDeleteConfirmation.toggle() } label: { Label("Delete", systemImage: "trash") } .confirmationDialog("Are you sure?", isPresented: $showingDeleteConfirmation) { Button(role: .destructive) { print("Delete it") } label: { Text("Delete") } Button(role: .cancel, action: {}) } } label: { Label("More", systemImage: "ellipsis") } } } } } }

Complex view structures are frustratingly too much work
The Java Swing and AWT MVC model made it easy to develop complex UIs with data interactions that were not described readily in a nested layer that SwiftUI demands. The implicit update model of SwiftUI greatly complicates development of applications that often requires nested components to have to know too much about other components and other structures than their own, because button events and other user interactions cannot readily alter state across layers. A button push on one component then has to be knowledgable about state in other components which have to have that state represented as @State or @Binding etc. and this causes all kinds of wiring to be spread all over the place rather than have a more centralized "state management function" that would be able to look at the world and synchronize the UIs state across changes. The fact that the compiler get's lost in the weeds when types and signatures don't match in deeper component structures doesn't help because it makes it doubly hard to do refactoring to raise and lower state management within the structure readily, because the compiler just cannot simply tell you that a function or constructor signature is no longer correct.

Why is SwiftUI so broken and not improving layered UI functionality
Again and and again, I reach the point in a new application where I need to make structural changes in components and my data model, and the SwiftUI compiler fails to compile and just reports "I'm lost in the weeds", with no indication of what it was last working on, aside from a particular level in a multi-layered nested UI. This typically happens when a sub-views construction is not coded correctly because I changed that view and am looking for what broke, by just letting the compiler tell me what is not compatible. This is how refactoring has been done for ages and it's just amazingly frustrating that Apple engineers don't seem to understand nor care about this issue enough to fix it. Why does this problem persist through version after version of SwiftUI? Is no-one actually using it for anything?

Looking for a mechanism in iPadOS 26 to 'split a window' into two adjacent windows like it worked in iPadOS 18.
With the new multi-windowing design in iPadOS 26, the behavior of openWindow() has changed. In iPadOS 18, if I called openWindow(), I would go from a full-screen window to two side-by-side windows. That allowed my app to meet the goal of the user; keep some information on the screen while being able to navigate through the app in the other window. In iPadOS 26 (beta 3), this no longer works. Instead, a new Window opens ON top of the current window. I am looking for some mechanism to help the user see that two windows are now present and then easily move them on the screen (tiled, side-by-side) or whatever else they would prefer.

Cannot get drop action to trigger (Xcode 26 beta 3)
I'm unable to find the right combination modifiers to get drag and drop to work using the new .draggable(containerItemID:) and dragContainer(for:in:selection:_:) modifiers. The drag is initiated with the item's ID, the item is requested from the .dragContainer modifier, but the drop closure is never triggered. Minimal repro: struct Item: Identifiable, Codable, Transferable { var id = UUID() var value: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { CodableRepresentation(contentType: .tab) } } struct DragDrop: View { @State var items: [Item] = [ Item(value: "Hello"), Item(value: "world"), Item(value: "something"), Item(value: "else") ] var body: some View { List(items) { item in HStack { Text(item.value) Spacer() } .contentShape(Rectangle()) .draggable(containerItemID: item.id) .dropDestination(for: Item.self) { items, session in print("Drop: \(items)") } } .dragContainer(for: Item.self) { itemID in print("Drag: \(itemID)") return items.filter { itemID == $0.id } } } } #Preview("Simple") { DragDrop() }

coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed
My iOS app supports iOS 18, and I’m using an encrypted CoreML model secured with a key generated from Xcode. Every few months (around every 3 months), the encrypted model fails to load for both me and my users. When I investigate, I find this error: coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed: noEntryFound("No records found"). Make sure the encryption key was generated with correct team ID To temporarily fix it, I delete the old key, generate a new one, re-encrypt the model, and submit an app update. This resolves the issue, but only for a while. This is a terrible experience for users and obviously not a sustainable solution. I want to understand: Why is this happening? Is there a known expiration or invalidation policy for CoreML encryption keys? How can I prevent this issue permanently? Any insights or official guidance would be really appreciated.

List View within a Scrollview
The bane of my existence has been designing interfaces where the whole view needs to scroll, but a portion is a List and the other portion is static. I run into this problem time and again so I was hoping someone has a good solution because we all know that embedding a List view inside ScrollView is a no-go within SwiftUI. It simply doesn't work. So what is a best practice when you need the whole screen to scroll, but a portion is a List? Use a navigation stack instead of a ScrollView? What if it's a child view of a navigation stack already?

PhaseAnimator without transition between phases
PhaseAnimator seems a good fit to play gifs in SwiftUI: struct ContentView: View { let frames = [UIImage(named: "frame-1")!, UIImage(named: "frame-2")!] var body: some View { PhaseAnimator(frames.indices) { index in Image(uiImage: frames[index]) } } } The problem is that by default, there's an opacity transition between phases. So I tried using transition(.identity): Image(uiImage: gif[index]) .transition(.identity) .id(index) It doesn't work. It stays frozen on the first frame. It does work if I set the transition to a small offset value: Image(uiImage: gif[index]) .transition(.offset(x: 0, y: 0.1)) .id(index) It does feel a bit hacky, though. Is this the expected behavior for .transition(.identity), or is it a bug?

Tint color for default toolbar items in iOS 26
Is there any way to change the color of default items like Back button or Search? Even if I apply .tint() to a view these items in the .toolbar are always in primary color.

How to show confirmationDialog from a Button in a Menu
I have a More button in my nav bar that contains a Delete action, and when you tap that I want to show a confirmation dialog before performing the deletion. In order words, I have a toolbar containing a toolbar item containing a menu containing a button that when tapped needs to show a confirmation dialog. In iOS 26, you're supposed to add the confirmationDialog on the view that presents the action sheet so that it can point to the source view or morph out of it if it's liquid glass. But when I do that, the confirmation dialog does not appear. Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? struct ContentView: View { @State private var showingDeleteConfirmation = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("👋, 🌎!") .toolbar { ToolbarItem { Menu { Button(role: .destructive) { showingDeleteConfirmation.toggle() } label: { Label("Delete", systemImage: "trash") } .confirmationDialog("Are you sure?", isPresented: $showingDeleteConfirmation) { Button(role: .destructive) { print("Delete it") } label: { Text("Delete") } Button(role: .cancel, action: {}) } } label: { Label("More", systemImage: "ellipsis") } } } } } }

Complex view structures are frustratingly too much work
The Java Swing and AWT MVC model made it easy to develop complex UIs with data interactions that were not described readily in a nested layer that SwiftUI demands. The implicit update model of SwiftUI greatly complicates development of applications that often requires nested components to have to know too much about other components and other structures than their own, because button events and other user interactions cannot readily alter state across layers. A button push on one component then has to be knowledgable about state in other components which have to have that state represented as @State or @Binding etc. and this causes all kinds of wiring to be spread all over the place rather than have a more centralized "state management function" that would be able to look at the world and synchronize the UIs state across changes. The fact that the compiler get's lost in the weeds when types and signatures don't match in deeper component structures doesn't help because it makes it doubly hard to do refactoring to raise and lower state management within the structure readily, because the compiler just cannot simply tell you that a function or constructor signature is no longer correct.

Why is SwiftUI so broken and not improving layered UI functionality
Again and and again, I reach the point in a new application where I need to make structural changes in components and my data model, and the SwiftUI compiler fails to compile and just reports "I'm lost in the weeds", with no indication of what it was last working on, aside from a particular level in a multi-layered nested UI. This typically happens when a sub-views construction is not coded correctly because I changed that view and am looking for what broke, by just letting the compiler tell me what is not compatible. This is how refactoring has been done for ages and it's just amazingly frustrating that Apple engineers don't seem to understand nor care about this issue enough to fix it. Why does this problem persist through version after version of SwiftUI? Is no-one actually using it for anything?
