Development environment:
Simulator: iOS 26 beta 3 iPhone 16 (for testing)
Simulator 2: iPadOS 26 beta 3 iPad Air 13 inch (M3) (for testing)
Connected Device: iPadOS 26 beta 3 iPad Pro 11 inch (M4) (for testing)
Dev Device: macOS Tahoe 26 beta 3 Macbook Air
When using the NavigationSplitView element, the sidebar has a built-in panel toggle button.
However, when I click the toggle button to toggle the sidebar section in SwiftUI 26 on both simulator 2 and the connected device, it has a slight animation glitch before going back to normal. What's going on?
This is my code for the specific view that has the NavigationSplitView (and all views are connected through TabViews):
RecordsPage.swift
Here are image references:
When I clicked the toggle:
After 1~2 seconds:
These images are in the state of the panel being hidden.

In the past, we had a red badge without a number on the app icon. We want to bring it back. Please provide instructions.
Why?
Why stop there? (Why not ipod.and.imacg3? applenewton.and.vision.pro?)
I get why the older ipod symbols exist but these new pairings are odd.
If anyone ever sees these restricted symbols in the wild, or even just someone using a Vision Pro and an iPod (Touch) together in a way that's not contrived, please do let me know!
In Carplay, is it possible to update the navigation title and also add right tab bar items? Couldn't find these details in the documentation. Please suggest
Hello there,
I have a couple of question about Apple Pay guidelines:
• if we offer Apple Pay payment method in our app, can we disable the selection (I mean the method selection NOT the Payment button!) IF certain condition happens? E.g. the user cannot select apple pay payment method because our basket is not ready yet.
• Are we forced to move the apple pay payment method on the top of our selection? E.g. Cards, Cash On Delivery, Coupon, Apple Pay --> Apple Pay, Cards, Cash On Delivery, Coupon
One last technical question:
• when we start the payment process we are gonna create the request and present the sheet BUT we have to call our backend for pre-authorization, is it allowed?
@objc private func applePayButtonTapped(sender: UIButton) {
// TODO: Is it allowed?
// We need to ask to our backend a pre-authorization and THEN procced with Apple Pay flow
// but this could be done ONLY after the user TAP on BUY with APPLE PAY and BEFORE
// paymentAuthorizationViewController is called.
// Are we compliant to do that?
if PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController.canMakePayments(usingNetworks: FakeData.paymentInfo()) {
let request = PKPaymentRequest()
request.blablabla = blabla
let authorizationViewController = PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController(paymentRequest: request)
if let viewController = authorizationViewController {
viewController.delegate = self
present(viewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
}
Thanks in advance :)
When I create a tab group for the sidebar on iPad, the title and disclosure triangle act like a single control. Every time I tap the section title, the disclosure triangle for that section activates and hides or exposes that section's children and actions.
I want the section title to behave like Photos, where tapping a section title just displays its view controller, and the disclosure triangle is a separate control that must be tapped to hide and show children and actions.
I did not see any delegate methods that would let me control this behavior. Is this supported?

ello there. I just installed IOS 26 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. But i think i found a Bug with a Widget where you have an overview of all devices and their battery. In IOS 18 when we used the Dark Theme (Dark Icons etc.) this widget was dark aswell (look at the picture) and now in IOs everything is dark except this widget. Its kinda annoying…
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.
As the title indicates the problem, the large title is shown but the small title in Navitation Bar view is not shown when scrolled up with iOS26 beta7.
It works with iOS18 or earlier.
Is this iOS26 bug?
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…

wont use ipad to post…
Will the draw (animation) functionality of SF Symbols be available when symbols are cut/pasted into a Keynote presentation? Better yet, will the draw tools from SF Symbols 7 be available in Keynote for objects created in Keynote?
Hi Guys, I noticed that with Icon Composer when you export the icon it does not export a square image, is there any way of doing it or that's how it is now?
Checking the icon on the iPhone something doesn't seem right...
Liquid Glass was introduced as a universal design language for all platforms, but isn't supported by visionOS 26 beta.
For a small team creating a visionOS app targeted for release in fall 2026, should we focus our design work on Liquid Glass, or for the existing visionOS design language?
Hi there
I have developed an offline algorithm for calculating tides, which works based on the built-in database of tidal stations in some regions. The algorithm works correctly and the results match the real data.
I would like to receive and add moon data from Weather Kit to the algorithm for performance improvement experiments. What requirements do I need to apply to the application so that I can use data from Weather Kit in my algorithm ?
Hi Apple developer community. I have a question a lot of users don’t like the new control center and notification center. Are you guys gonna blur the background or are you guys gonna keep it the same?
Hi, I'm trying to create a visualization using charts for vision pro. I want to create a line chart that connects pair of points on a donut chart. So i'm trying to draw the lines radially but it seems that the line chart always has only the bottom left corner of the view as origin. How can I tranform the origin to center of the view?
I accedently removed my info.plist can someone help me make one based on this image
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
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'm trying to create custom SF symbols and am getting this error message when I validate the template. It doesn't matter if I Export Template or Symbol. Also, it doesn't even matter if I make any changes or not, as long as it is opened in Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape and then I save it, I will get this error message when validating.
