Area: Software Update Type of Feedback: Application Bug Description Device: iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 26 Build environment: Xcode 16.4 Problem description: When a text field has secureTextEntry = YES and Password Autofill / Passkeys is active, the autofill panel is not included in the rect reported from the keyboard notifications (UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey or others). As a result, when calculating the offset to move the screen up and reveal the hidden input field, the field is not displayed correctly because the reported keyboard height is smaller than the actual visible height. Observed behavior: This only occurs on devices running iOS 26 built with Xcode 16.4. On previous versions of iOS, with the same settings (secureTextEntry and Autofill active), the rect correctly includes the autofill panel height, and the UI works as expected. I tested with both UIKeyboardDidShowNotification and UIKeyboardWillChangeFrameNotification, and in both cases the behavior is the same: the height is incorrect (smaller than expected with the autofill panel). What I expect / questions: That UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey (or the related notification) correctly reports the total area covered by the keyboard, including any password autofill panel, when secureTextEntry is active. That the new behavior in iOS 26 be documented if this omission is intentional, or otherwise considered a bug if it is not. If there is any official workaround suggested by Apple for developers affected by this issue while a fix is provided. Thank you for your support.

Hello, In my App.xcdatamodeld I have an entity called File. When I am building the project with Xcode, file FileEntity+CoreDataProperties.swift is generated. After upgrading Xcode to version 26.0 (17A324), I am getting the warning: Public import of 'CoreData' was not used in public declarations or inlinable code Any idea how to get rid of this warning since it's a generated file and I can't see any option to change it?

Hello, I see five very old entries in the list of "results from apps" (Settings -> Spotlight; I use MacOS 26), e.g. com.flexibits.fantastical2.mac or com.surteesstudios.Bartender. But I uninstalled these app long time ago, e.g. Fantastical 2 (it must have been many years). How can I delete these "extensions"? Where are they stored? I searched in e.g. ~/Library/Application Support, with EasyFind and HoudahSpot but no positive result. And I already contacted the developers of some of these apps but they could not really help either. Takk, Claus

I got some issues with an M1 Max Macbook Pro. For no Reason the Audio from the Browser Windows disappears when Logic opens or vice Versa.

Hi Community! I have enrolled for an Apple Developer Account. Only 4 hours left until the 48-hour deadline runs out. On the account page it says pending in orange when I click on my name, but it also says that I need to complete payment. I have received an invoice and receipt from Apple confirming that it’s paid, so I’m not planning to pay again. Does this sound like everything is correct and I can just look forward to it, or does it sound like something is wrong? From people’s experience here, does it often take more than 48 hours? Petter

Hi, I submitted an app update for review, and before, I automatically received an email from Apple saying, "Your app is under review," but now I haven't received that email. Does this mean there's a problem with the app? Did I do something wrong? Or do I just not receive that email every time? (So far, I've received it every time I've submitted an app for review.) I hope you can help. Thank you.

Hi there, I am new to Xcode26 and dragged my AppIcon.icon (created with Icon Composer) into the project. Then build failed with "Could not locate icontool". Could anyone point me to the cleanest way to solve this? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello, I noticed that on September 18, 2025, my Active Paid Subscriptions metric in App Store Connect suddenly dropped to 0 (-100%). However, my subscribers are still active and visible in RevenueCat and Superwall, which both confirm that users have not canceled their subscriptions. This makes me believe it is an App Store Connect reporting issue rather than an actual churn. Could you please confirm if this is a known data delay/bug, and let me know when the metric will be corrected? Thank you for your help

Title: High CPU usage by WindowServer during Twitch playback on M4 Pro (macOS 26 Tahoe) Description: After upgrading to macOS 26 (Tahoe), I’ve noticed that Twitch playback in both Safari and Microsoft Edge causes WindowServer to consume 40–50% CPU on a MacBook Pro with the M4 Pro chip. This results in noticeable fan noise and reduced battery life, even when only one 1080p stream is active. This behavior was not present in the previous version of macOS. Steps to reproduce: Open Twitch in Safari or Edge. Play any live stream at 720p or 1080p. Observe Activity Monitor – WindowServer process hits 45%+ CPU consistently. Expected: Hardware video decoding and efficient GPU-based composition should prevent CPU overload. Actual: WindowServer consumes high CPU, fans activate Hardware: MacBook Pro 14” (M4 Pro, 2025), macOS 26.0 (Tahoe)

Hello, I found an issue with the Games app on macOS 26 (Tahoe) when viewing achievements: In App Store Connect, each achievement has different values set for the pre-earned description and the post-earned description. When testing with GameKit directly (GKAchievementDescription), both values are returned correctly. However, in the macOS Games app, the post-earned description is shown even before the achievement is earned. This seems to be a display issue specific to the Games app on macOS. Could you confirm if this is a known bug in the Games app, or if there is a reason why pre-earned descriptions are not being shown? Thank you.

since the release of iOS26 i get new reports of people making home screen apps of website pages that had camera accessibility to take pictures that mention the camera being 90degree sideways to what it should be. i have tested it myself and was able to reproduce the issue quite easily on iPhones 13|15|16 regular and pro versions. this affects all cameras when trying using them with navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({...})...

Hello, My experience is limited but I am looking to connect with app developer who has experience so I may receive mentorship. Thank you for taking the time to read this : ) Zakariah J. McLeroy

With macOS Tahoe, Launchpad has been replaced by an App Library–style mode within Spotlight. While the alleged intention is UX consistency across the Apple ecosystem, the result is both a catastrophic usability regression and a radical break in consistency with iOS and iPadOS. Predefined App Library categorization is functionally incoherent: On iOS and now macOS, Apple’s predefined App Library categories place apps with seemingly identical functionality into unrelated groups—for example, 3D scanning tools scattered across Education, Utilities, and Productivity. Instead of making apps easier to find, this effectively creates a labyrinth that users must traverse to locate apps whose names and icons they may not recall. However Apple defines its app categories, they are not only inconsistent but also hopelessly inadequate for the long tail of real-world applications and user workflows. Loss of user control: Launchpad enabled users to group and organize applications according to their workflows. This aligns with Apple’s own Human Interface Guidelines, which emphasize user control, discoverability, and predictable behavior. The new Spotlight interface removes that flexibility, locking users into predefined categories that both impede and mislead—and cannot be overridden. Consistency across platforms is broken: If the goal was to unify iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, this approach actually undermines consistency. On iOS and iPadOS, users can still rely on a customizable Home Screen—a Launchpad-like experience—as their primary way of launching apps. In Tahoe, that option has been removed. macOS now forces users to depend exclusively on Spotlight with App Library categories, while eliminating the very feature that was consistent across platforms. Catastrophic impact on my workflow: As an interdisciplinary artist working in 2D, 3D, and time-based media, as well as coding, I make extensive use of a constantly changing array of AI tools and experiment with many new apps and web services, which I often turn into Web Apps. I cannot possibly recall the names of every native and web app on my system. I need predictable access to groups of related tools. Tahoe’s new auto-categories split those apps apart arbitrarily, slowing me down and interrupting established workflows, forcing me to navigate the aforementioned labyrinth just to find what I need. Proposal: A constructive way forward High-level objective: Simply restore Launchpad—or restore the ability to customize app categories/folders and manually assign apps to them, overriding or augmenting the predefined categories. This ensures users can launch apps according to their workflow, without needing to remember exact names or icons. Possible solutions: Allow manual subfolders within Applications, represented hierarchically in Spotlight. Provide a fullscreen Launchpad-like organizer (with uninstall via long-click, etc.), either as a replacement or toggleable option. Retain Apple’s auto-categories for those who prefer them, but let users override or augment them with their own. In summary: Tahoe eliminates a working, consistent paradigm (Launchpad/Home Screen) and forces reliance on an App Library system that categorizes poorly and cannot be customized. This is both a step backwards in functionality and a break in cross-platform consistency. A constructive solution is to restore Launchpad—or at least restore the ability for users to organize apps in ways that fit their workflows.

Hi, I want to understand how Per-App VPN can be configured on iOS. Specifically: Is Per-App VPN something that can be controlled directly from code (inside an app), or does it always require MDM / configuration profiles (.mobileconfig)? If it requires a configuration profile, how can I specify which apps (by bundle identifier) should use the VPN? Is it possible to let users dynamically choose apps for Per-App VPN, or is this strictly managed by MDM? My goal is to make sure that only apps selected by user dynamically use the VPN connection, while other apps continue to use the normal network. Any official Apple documentation, examples, or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I started monitoring using the following code: deviceActivityCenter.startMonitoring( DeviceActivityName(name), during: makeDailySchedule(), events: events ) Where: DeviceActivitySchedule( intervalStart: DateComponents(hour: 0, minute: 0), intervalEnd: DateComponents(hour: 23, minute: 59), repeats: true, warningTime: nil ) In DeviceActivityMonitor, I read and write data using UserDefaults and keep the logic minimal to ensure the size does not exceed 6MB. However, after a period of time, monitoring continues to fail. Why is this happening? How can I resolve this issue?

I have a strange problem. My code works perfectly on my iPhone, i.e. on a real iPhone, but when I upload the build version to TestFlight, it no longer works. I use React Native. The issue is as follows: I have created a code for Grid View that runs automatically when another person joins the stream. It works locally without any problems, but unfortunately the public version does not work. What could be the reason for this?

Hi, I found a Bug in new Preview App on MacOS 26 release, while adding a new calendar entry. If I click on a date inside a PDF file in Preview App, the calendar view pops and prompts to add a new calendar event. The background, which I guess should show the calendar, is showing a yellow screen. See images below. This happens on both my M1 Air and M4 Pro Macbook. Kind regards, Lorenz
