Hello,
Users are reporting that widgets in my iOS app running on Mac OS are starting to crash after updating to MacOS 26.1.
Everything works fine on iOS 26.1 and MacOS 15.6.
The same bugs I found in iOS 26 beta 4, but then Apple fixed them in iOS 26RC and now they're back in macOS.
Any suggestions?
