Hello. I've made a shape in the app which looks like the hello sign on apple products at startup. Is this considered plagiarism, or is it acceptable to use it in an app? P.s: i've used Path for it and drawed it with curves

I am working on a Mac App that was developed with Objective C and Interface Builder. In earlier versions of Mac OS the window title was centered. Now in Tahoe it's left-justified. Is there some way to set this? There is no setting for this in Interface Builder and I can't see any way to do it programmatically by reading the developer documentation. Is this even possible?

Hi everyone, I am working on a CarPlay integration, and need open a two level list opened from a root template. However, I am always receiving an error message when opening the 2nd pushed template. To narrow it down not to have an issue with some app specific code I created the CarPlay scene below. I am aware that there is a limit, but two levels I understand are supported on all CarPlay integrations, the maximum seems to be 5. The app is just crashing right after showing the 2nd template. Any ideas? Any hints are much appreciated. Thanks a lot! Regards, Michael class CarPlaySceneDelegate2: UIResponder, CPTemplateApplicationSceneDelegate { // [...] private func createRootTemplate() -> CPListTemplate { let pushToAItem = CPListItem(text: "Push to Template A", detailText: "Level 1 → Level 2") pushToAItem.handler = {[weak self] (pushToAItem, completion) in guard let self = self else { completion() return } self.interfaceController?.pushTemplate( self.pushTemplateA(), animated: true, completion: { (didPresent, error) in completion() } ) } let section = CPListSection(items: [pushToAItem]) let template = CPListTemplate(title: "Root Template", sections: [section]) return template } private func pushTemplateA() -> CPListTemplate { let pushToBItem = CPListItem(text: "Push to Template B", detailText: "Level 2 → Level 3") pushToBItem.handler = {[weak self] (pushToBItem, completion) in guard let self = self else { completion() return } self.interfaceController?.pushTemplate( self.pushTemplateB(), animated: true, completion: { (didPresent, error) in completion() } ) } let backToRootItem = CPListItem(text: "Pop to Root", detailText: "Go back to root") backToRootItem.handler = { [weak self] _, completion in self?.interfaceController?.popToRootTemplate(animated: true, completion: nil) completion(); } let infoItem = CPListItem(text: "Current Depth", detailText: "2 (Template A)") let stackCountItem = CPListItem( text: "Stack Count", detailText: "\((interfaceController?.templates.count ?? 0) + 1)" ) let section = CPListSection(items: [pushToBItem, backToRootItem, infoItem, stackCountItem]) let template = CPListTemplate(title: "Template A", sections: [section]) return template } private func pushTemplateB() -> CPListTemplate { let pushToCItem = CPListItem(text: "Push to Template C", detailText: "Level 3 → Level 4") pushToCItem.handler = {[weak self] (pushToCItem, completion) in guard let self = self else { completion() return } self.interfaceController?.pushTemplate( self.pushTemplateC(), animated: true, completion: { (didPresent, error) in completion() } ) } let backToRootItem = CPListItem(text: "Pop to Root", detailText: "Go back to root") backToRootItem.handler = { [weak self] _, completion in self?.interfaceController?.popToRootTemplate(animated: true, completion: nil) completion() } let popOneItem = CPListItem(text: "Pop One", detailText: "Go back to Template A") popOneItem.handler = { [weak self] _, completion in self?.interfaceController?.popTemplate(animated: true, completion: nil) completion() } let infoItem = CPListItem(text: "Current Depth", detailText: "3 (Template B)") let stackCountItem = CPListItem( text: "Stack Count", detailText: "\((interfaceController?.templates.count ?? 0) + 1)" ) let section = CPListSection(items: [pushToCItem, popOneItem, backToRootItem, infoItem, stackCountItem]) let template = CPListTemplate(title: "Template B", sections: [section]) return template } private func pushTemplateC() -> CPListTemplate { let backToRootItem = CPListItem(text: "Pop to Root", detailText: "Go back to root") backToRootItem.handler = { [weak self] _, completion in self?.interfaceController?.popToRootTemplate(animated: true, completion: nil) completion() } let popOneItem = CPListItem(text: "Pop One", detailText: "Go back to Template B") popOneItem.handler = { [weak self] _, completion in self?.interfaceController?.popTemplate(animated: true, completion: nil) completion() } let infoItem = CPListItem(text: "Current Depth", detailText: "4 (Template C)") let stackCountItem = CPListItem( text: "Stack Count", detailText: "\((interfaceController?.templates.count ?? 0) + 1)" ) let section = CPListSection(items: [popOneItem, backToRootItem, infoItem, stackCountItem]) let template = CPListTemplate(title: "Template C", sections: [section]) return template } }

Hello everyone, I’m looking for some advice or shared experiences regarding an app rejection under App Store Review Guideline 4.3(b) – Design – Spam. Our app was rejected and, after an appeal to the App Review Board, Apple maintained that the app “duplicates the content and functionality of similar apps in a saturated category.” We strongly disagree with this classification and are struggling to understand how Guideline 4.3(b) has been applied in our case. The app was developed as an original product: Custom-designed content (including original cards and interactions) A unique visual style and UI A distinct interaction flow focused on encouraging social interaction between users This was not a template-based or reskinned app, nor is it part of a series of similar submissions. We fully respect the App Store Review Guidelines and are open to making adjustments to better align with them. However, what we find difficult is the lack of specific, actionable feedback. We have not received clear guidance on which exact elements are considered duplicative or what changes would meaningfully address the concern. Some of the questions we are hoping the community can help with: In your experience, what typically triggers a 4.3(b) rejection in cases like this? Are there specific mechanics, terminology, or presentation choices that reviewers often interpret as problematic? Have others successfully resolved a 4.3(b) rejection without completely abandoning their app concept? We have already invested significant time and resources into this project, and being advised to create an entirely new app is not financially feasible for us. We are genuinely trying to understand how to proceed in a way that is constructive and compliant. Any insights, experiences, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. — Lars

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?

While doing production release of app, I was not able to see phase release option like in my previous releases. Due To whihc when I released. the app , it got released to 100% users. I want to know why phase release option was not showing up in my dashboard

Yesterday on Explore the biggest updates from WWDC Curt Clifton shared .background(.tint, in: .rect(corner: .containerConcentric)). XCode26 beta 3 don‘t recognize it. how when we can use it??

Hi, I want to generate some sample datas for demonstrating the functions of my app when the app launched. My codes are as followings: func generateSampleData() { let hasLaunchedKey = "HasLaunchedBefore" let defaults = UserDefaults.standard if !defaults.bool(forKey: hasLaunchedKey) { //generate the demo data } defaults.set(true, forKey: hasLaunchedKey) } And I put the func in a view's onAppear modifier. I found every time I go the view, it generates the demo data again, which results in producing a lot of demo data. But I have set the status of the function running in the userdefault. Why did it happen? Best Wishes,

Is there anyway I can customize Carplay template look like this

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.

Hi community my name is Adam Robles. I have a question. I recently downloaded the beta on my iPad Pro 13 inch and I noticed where are the iPad wallpapers I only get one wallpaper, but where what happened to the wallpaper that was released with iPad last year

I’m delighted with the introduction of new color folders. Although, I can’t help but wonder why we still need both color folders and tags. Aren’t the color folders sufficient for our needs?

Hi, I am trying to create a custom SF Symbol from an SVG file created with Affinity Designer but, even though my SVG file look perfect in Firefox for example compared to the exported custom.circle.svg file (as recommended in Apple's documentation), I fail to get rid of this error: "The provided variants are not interpolatable" My creation process using Affinity Designer is: Export as SVG file Duplicate the custom.circle.svg file exported from the SF Symbols app In the new file, replace the 3 "path" tags in the "g" sections "id="Black-S", "Regular-S", "Ultralight-S" with the paths from the SVG file exported from Affinity designer Set the 3 transform matrices to "matrix(1 0 0 1 0 0)" for the 3 variants to be generated at the correct location. Verify in an SVG viewer that the file looks correct. Import the file via Drag&Drop into the SF Symbols app. What is wrong with my file? Thank you in advance for any help, Marc mySymbol.svg.txt

I have two views I've applied Liquid Glass to in Swift UI. I've noticed that depending on the height of the view the material changes and I'm not sure why. See the attached screenshot. Both views add the liquidGlass style in the same way but behave very differently on the same background. Ideally I'd like them to look the same as the bottom one. Is that the same as the clear style?

So…I am hitting a wall here and could use some guidance towards best practice. I’ve developed an app in Xcode/SwiftUI that renders just fine on the iPhone - text, images, buttons, frames…everything is nicely centered on the screen or scrolls where and when I want. The iPad though…not so much. I’m having issues with tops and bottoms being cut off in scrollviews. These are just straight up text screens too - the ones with other elements/controls…they’re rendering fine. I’ve tried a mix of geometry, vstack, scrollview, padding, spacers…the lot of it. Nothing I seem to do works - the views do not want to fill and fit properly. And, of course, the issue becomes worse the moment you flip the iPad into landscape view. Or use the 13” models. I’d imagine others are battling these issues as well and found solutions, so I decided to hit up the brain trust.

I've been losing countless hours of work trying to create a variable-width SF Symbol that supports interpolation, no dice. Both Sketch and Figma output SVGs that are not interpolatable. After numerous hours of research, I believe it's due to the fact that when outlining strokes, these editing tools introduce artifacts into the shapes —​ sometimes I get very short line segments where there would not be needed, sometimes a 3-point curve gets expanded to a 4-point curve, but not in all weights. It's always inconsistent. So my only question is rather simple: what's the graphic editing tool Apple uses to create hundreds of symbols? Clearly you cannot edit the stroke of ALL curves by hand, it's inhumane. Sketch? Figma? Illustrator? Inkscape? Affinity? I'd like a definitive answer from someone internal so that I can at least try to use the same tool as you without wasting more hours.

I've been beating my head against the wall over a scrollview issue where the top and bottom are cut off in landscape mode. Portrait mode - everything runs swimmingly. The moment I flip the iPad on its side, though, I lose about a quarter of the view on the top and bottom. I thought this was something to do with framing or such; I ran through a myriad of frame, padding, spacer, geometry...I set it static, I set it to dynamically grow, I even created algorithms to try to figure out how to set things to the individual device. Eventually, I separated the tablet and phone views as was suggested here and on the Apple dev forums. That's when I started playing around with the background image. Right now I have.... ZStack { Image("background") .resizable() .scaledToFill() .ignoresSafeArea() ScrollView { VStack(spacing: 24) {.... The problem is the "scaledToFill". In essence, whenever THAT is in the code, the vertical scrollview goes wonky in landscape mode. It, in essence, thinks that it has much more room at the top and the bottom because the background image has been extended at top and bottom to fill the wider screen of the iPad in landscape orientation. Is there any way to get around this issue? The desired behavior is pretty straightforward - the background image fills the entire background, no white bars or such, and the view scrolls against it.

We use SwiftUI's .tabViewBottomAccessory in our iOS apps for displaying an Audio MiniPlayer View (like in the Apple Music App). TabView(selection: $viewModel.selectedTab) { // Tabs here } .tabViewBottomAccessory { if viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer { MiniPlayerView() } } The Problem This code works perfectly on iOS 26.0. When 'viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer' is 'false', the accessory is completely hidden. However, on iOS 26.1 (23B5059e), when 'viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer' is 'false', the MiniPlayerView disappears, but an empty container remains, leaving a blank space above the tab bar. Is this a known Bug in iOS 26.1 and are there any effective workarounds or should I just wait until Apple fixed it?

Hi, I would like to make an educational app for helping my students to learn about malaria diagnosis and need to put some animal icon. In the tabview, is it possible to use system images like monkey, bird, mouse. I cannot see these animals in SF symbol list.
