Hi everyone, I’m having trouble getting the new glassEffect() modifier to render correctly in SwiftUI. No matter what I try, it just appears as a solid white background (instead of translucent glass). This happens both in Beta 1 and Beta 2. My setup: • Mac mini (M4 chip) • macOS 15 Beta 2 (Tahoe) • Xcode 16 Beta 2 • Samsung Odyssey G9 57” monitor (super ultrawide) • Using Preview in SwiftUI (not the Simulator) Even when I use Apple’s default demo code like: Text("Hello World") .padding() .glassEffect()

For a school Project im making a iOS app that displays vending machines on a Map. My problem is that there is this huge navigation bar on top of the screen without even having a navigation view anywhere in the code. In the preview the bar is not shown, but when I upload the app to my phone or run it in the simulator the bar is there.

With iOS 26 the CPListSection header has a transparent background, and when the list scrolls under the header it doesn't look good at all. We expected to see a glass fading effect maybe, like the one on the top of the screen. Is it a known bug?

why are people having problems with the playground download when some people have full access to it What is the difference between us and other people who have it

While the activityBackgroundTint modifier is intended to set the background color of a Live Activity, it often fails to dynamically update, leaving the activity with an incorrect background. Replacing it with ZStack { Color(.background) .... } solves the problem, but this is a workaround. The activityBackgroundTint modifier is still needed, at a minimum, so that the "Allow Live Activity for the app" extension does not have the default color.

I’m currently using the iOS 26 Developer Beta and noticed the new icon design for the Camera app. Personally, I preferred the previous icon it looked cleaner, more elegant, and felt more in line with Apple’s signature iOS design language. The new icon feels more like something you’d expect from Android. It lacks the minimalist, refined style that usually defines iOS icons. I understand UI evolves over time, but this change feels like a step away from what makes Apple’s design philosophy unique. Just wanted to share this honest feedback as a long-time user and developer. Thanks for considering!

Ben waiting about four days is any reason why I stu in queue?

Hi, Anybody knows will this occurs when using navigationStack at iOS 18.3? The navigationStack not stay at safeareas the code as simple as that: NavigationStack(path: $navManager.path) { VStack { Text("Hello") } .navigationDestination(for: Route.self) { route in switch route { .... } } } .environmentObject(navManager) .environment(logic)

I have a problem that my widgets don't display well on Apple Watch Ultra when it is in the Night Mode. I would like to be able to detect this state so that I can provide a better view for this. Thank you.

Hello， Apple developer, I found in the documentation that the evaluatedPolicyDomainState API has been deprecated in iOS 18. In my project, many users rely on this value for comparison. I would like to ask, what does it mean that this API is deprecated? Will the value returned by this API be empty in the future? How should I adapt for existing users?" Let me know if you'd like any adjustments! Thank you. Good luck. [[context evaluatedPolicyDomainState] bytes]

Hey there, I redesigned my apps icons for Liquid Glass in the icon composer app. I have to say it's been a pleasure to use and my icons look stunning when rendered in the icon composer app, whatever rendering mode and context I've been testing. But once in a developer release on my device (iOS 26 beta 3), the rendering is very disappointing. They look blurry, very far from what icon composer is showing. I would like to know whether I have a design issue, or if the current state of the beta release is known to not render icon properly. I'm kind of panicking :)

I have really examined the swipe left Camera function mode and sincerely believe it is no more important especially when there no option in the settings to turn it on or off. I will highly recommend a total scrap in the iOS 26 or if possible a function to activate and deactivate it.

Feedback for iPhone and iPad – Display Technology Dear Apple Team, Currently, the mainstream display technology used in iPhone and iPad is OLED. However, OLED panels produce significant PWM flickering, which strongly irritates the human eye. Many users, especially in China, experience eye strain, tearing, and discomfort after using OLED devices for a period of time. There is a large group of users here who are highly sensitive to screen flicker and therefore cannot use OLED-based devices at all. What they truly need is an eye-friendly device with either LCD or flicker-free Mini-LED display technology. I sincerely recommend that Apple consider offering iPhone and iPad models with LCD or Mini-LED panels. Such displays could provide better eye comfort, no flicker, and a healthier experience. Currently, almost no smartphone manufacturers in China provide such options, and even if they do, their devices often come with outdated chipsets and cannot be used as a reliable daily driver. This presents a valuable opportunity for Apple: by addressing this demand, Apple could attract a unique customer base, increase sales, and even justify a slightly higher price, as many customers would be willing to pay more for the sake of their eye health. In the Chinese market, a truly flicker-free iPhone or iPad would be incredibly rare and highly desired. Thank you for considering this suggestion. I truly hope Apple will take this into account.

I previously written here, and some advices were to appeal to rejection sending them message describing uniqueness of the app. Nothing is working. In short, i have a vpn app (of course by design shares some concept with other apps that are in the app store). But since the rejection i have completely changed the ui, added built in browser, p2p messenger so users could interact with each other without any interference. The app is completely free with no ads. I thought this is it, there's no way it would reject this time, but... i get a notification with rejection repeating the same old message. I'm extremely frustrated and don't know what to do. Tried changing the logo of the app, the name to "Incognito - Messenger, VPN", app store screenshots. I've already appealed with screenshots describing unique features that other vpn apps don't have, but the message just repeats from app review team. Submission ID: 1a49ee0b-c4e2-4a36-8372-e4d3b9a8b13f Does anybody have an advice what i can do?

The brand new animation in Stage Manager greatly reduced dizziness. However, don’t know why it ONLY applies when no window was presented. What would be the problem elsewhere? Stage Manager is one of pretty few motion pictures that annoyed me and forced me to turn on Reduce Motion, or stop using Stage Manager. Big pity… macOS 26.0 (25A5346a) wont use ipad to post…

In the clock app when making an alarm for myself to wake up, I found this bug where If you swipe left On an alarm without deleting it and then Swipe right it does a goofy visual glitch where it teleports to the top of your screen.

I'm working to emulate the Activity Rings featured in Apple's Fitness app. Here's a copy of what's in the swift file so far. // // ProgressRingPrototype.swift // Nutrition // // Created by Derek Chestnut on 1/13/25. // import SwiftUI struct ProgressRingPrototype: View { @State var progress = 0.00 let size: CGSize let thickness: CGFloat var color: Color? var gradientColors: [Color]? var body: some View { let color = color ?? .primary ZStack { RingPrototype( size: self.size, thickness: self.thickness, color: color.opacity(0.2) ) let gradient = AngularGradient( colors: gradientColors ?? [.primary, .secondary], center: .center ) let style = StrokeStyle( lineWidth: 32, lineCap: .round ) Circle() .trim(from: 0, to: progress) .stroke(gradient, style: style) .rotationEffect(.degrees(-90)) .frame(width: size.width, height: size.height) } .onAppear { DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { withAnimation(.easeInOut(duration: 1)) { progress = 0.75 } } } } } #Preview { ZStack { ProgressRingPrototype( progress: 0.1, size: CGSize(width: 256, height: 256), thickness: CGFloat(32), color: .primary ) ProgressRingPrototype( progress: 0.1, size: CGSize(width: 190, height: 190), thickness: CGFloat(32), color: .primary ) ProgressRingPrototype( progress: 0.1, size: CGSize(width: 124, height: 124), thickness: CGFloat(32), color: .primary ) } } Here's a snapshot of the live preview. I'm experiencing an issue where the trailing line cap generated by the stroke exceeds the start angle of the angular gradient, which creates an ugly artifact at 0 degrees. Anyone have a solution to this problem? Derek
