When I start a Simulator (iPhone 13 mini) with iOS 26 and activate "Use the Same Keyboard Language as macOS", it still sets the keyboard to US (my Mac keyboard is in German). This makes the Mac keyboard unusable. It looks like a bug, because it clearly ignores the settings. When I type “@”, I get “¬”. Restarting the simulator did nothing, changing the settings back and forth also.

BTW: Why does every single update of XCode come with a bug nowadays? I always have to spend half a day after an update to fix a problem I didn't have before. Highly frustrating.

I apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced. I have attempted to replicate the issue in Xcode 26.1 and have verified that the language is correctly set.

Could you please provide me with the version of macOS and Xcode that you are currently using? If the issue persists, I recommend attempting the latest versions of each. Additionally, if you are unable to resolve the issue, I would appreciate it if you could file a bug report.

Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference.

If you have any questions about filing a bug report, take a look at Bug Reporting: How and Why?
