Hello - I have an older app on the store, iAchieved, that suddenly stopped working properly on iOS 18. You can see it on the store, here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/iachieved/id1069338478 It still opens runs, and I can try to enter a new item, but something is wrong with the date, so that the "Done" button does not appear. And since it does not, I cannot tap it and create the item. I'm not a developer, I don't code, I only designed the app and had someone build it for me. But, if you can put it in layman's terms, any idea what's causing this? Thanks so much for any insight you can provide, -- David

Hi, It would be sure if Apple creates a Fgima plug in to convert designs to SwiftUI, no one can do it like Apple and it would be SUPER and super time saving ! -- Kind Regards

I am trying to resize a Window Form after it loads and have done quite a bit of searching for code to do it. Here is one code snippet that works to size the form during the design phase. self.view.window?.contentMinSize = CGSize(width: 1100, height: 310) I have tried code like below to increase the window size after the Form loads if let myWindow = self.view.window ?? NSApplication.shared.mainWindow { // Increase window size and position after it loads let newRect = NSRect(x: 100, y: 100, width: 1400, height: 900) } It seems that this code not only changes the Form size after loading, but also changes the size of the Form in Main.swift, which is something I don't want. I read elsewhere that I had to disable constraints to resize the Form, so I tried code below. let tableView = NSTableView() tableView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false let newRect = NSRect(x: 100, y: 0, width: 1100, height: 600) myWindow?.setFrame(newRect, display: true) That code did not seem to do anything as well. Also, the Form displays in the lower left of the screen. Note that main reason I want to resize the Form after loading is to keep it smaller during design development. The same goes for the NSTableView, which I have not gotten to yet.

Hi there. Our designer is designing our app in Figma with the navigation element with compact size navigation bar, and large title. I couldn't find an API to actually configure the nav bar to be compact while keeping the large title enabled. Figma uses the libraries provided by Apple so it's weird I can't find such configuration in iOS26. I'm adding a screenshot of the options in Figma. First option is: Large size & large text. The one our designer is using is compact size & large text.

Context & Issue I am developing an iOS application. My app icon uses colors that are relatively close to each other. When the user enables Accessibility → Display & Text Size → Color Filters → Grayscale (or similar modes), the icon becomes harder to distinguish because it loses color and contrast is reduced. Goal When iOS switches to grayscale mode, I want the app icon to maintain good contrast between its elements so it remains clearly recognizable. What I’ve tried Redesigned the icon with more contrasting colors. Added strokes/outlines, but it still doesn’t look much better in grayscale. Researched how iOS renders app icons when grayscale is enabled, but couldn’t find a way to override or provide an alternative icon. Specific questions Is there any API or mechanism in iOS that allows providing a different version of the app icon when the user has grayscale mode enabled? If there’s no direct API, are there any best practices for designing iOS app icons to ensure good contrast when converted to grayscale? Do we have to design grayscale version for app icon? Thank you!

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

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.

Hey there! I'd love to know if theres a way where you can animate items between ZStack and VStacks? Just like the native iOS notifications on the Lockscreen stack at the bottom and if tapped, they convert from a Stack to a List - I have a list with items, displayed in a VStack, and I make the list collapsable when swiping down, where the items stack behind eachother with a progresisve reduction in opacity & scale, but I havent figured out a way to animate the items between the list and the stack - where you can visually see items starting to overlap and stack ontop of eachother when collapsing the list.

Hello, I have used CPPointOfInterestTemplate for displaying data and as user scrolls using the up/down arrow, I do not see any change in the map. Is there a way to highlight the POIs as the user scrolls through the list? I need to use the map controls and zoom to check the markers on the map. Is it possible to set the zoom level of the map in CarPlay? Pls suggest on the above queries

Hello, I am looking to develop a relationship with a developer that has experience running through the IOS build approval process. To elaborate, my team and I have designed and built a software application which is working through the Apple Developer review process to have the app approved and released to the App Store. Unfortunately, there has been some challenges, simple challenges in my eyes with our interface preventing Apple from approving our application. Happy to elaborate further. A primary problem and solution I have seen is the software build was testing solely on the iPhone but as recently directed it seem the application must be accessible on iPad as well. With this the case, I have experience some software platforms where on the ipad the interface is not displayed on the whole screen. I am looking for direction on how to implement this setup for the 1st IOS build. Another concern from Apples Developer Review team is the App Tracking Transparency kit may need to be implemented.

I'm looking for a way to display a notification badge without showing a number—essentially, just an empty badge to indicate the presence of notifications. From my research, it seems like this functionality isn't available . Is there any workaround or method to achieve this?

I like that you can choose to tint all your apps, it looks great, but when I’m tinted the myfitnesspal widgets are blank. Just a white square. Kinda frustrating that I have to choose between looks or function..

I see the logo all over the internet, but the only Official logo I can find is the swift logo, the orange one, but the blue one I do not see a place to download it nor the usage guidelines. I have seen it on various Icon site like Icon8. I would like to use it on my reddit forum that is dedicated to SwiftUI but I want to be legal. Is it allowed to use and if so, where can you download the official verison?

Helvetica (17.0d1e1) has bugs, hopefully the developers and designers will fix it. Link to the presentation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16qfpo9Y7Psghv5c_Xl3JBiTPkP4QNaaS/view?usp=sharing

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.

Hi, in the Human Interface Guidelines, Apple writes: Avoid using a segmented control in a toolbar. Toolbar items act on the current screen — they don’t let people switch contexts like segmented controls do. Along with this image: Source I'm confused by this example. The screenshot seems to be showing a segmented control in a toolbar. Is this saying that the Phone app's All/Missed toggle is different from a segmented control? Under iOS 26 it seems to take a different style compared to a regular segmented control. If so, which component is used to create this filter? Could you please clarify the guidelines? Thank you.

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?

Here is my code and the error code being generated during build. let myString : String = "https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=TIME_SERIES_DAILY&symbol=AAPL&apikey= D5GY7HKODE66G0T9" var banjo = URL(string: myString) let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with:banjo ) { myDatastring , response , error in} // task.resume() I've tested that URL in my browser and it works. But when I try to build I get: Value of optional type 'URL?' must be unwrapped to a value of type 'URL' Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I think the URL struct is not returning a URL type of object.

I accedently removed my info.plist can someone help me make one based on this image
