In Apple Vision Pro, I want to implement a HUD page similar to the one in Medivis' SuricalAR product (i.e. the UI is fixed on the screen field of view rather than in space). How should I do it?

Dear Apple Innovation Team,
I have a game-changing iPhone concept and want Apple to explore it first.
📱 iPhone 18 – The First True Portless iPhone
No ports – MagSafe 2.0 with high-speed data transfer.
Under-display Face ID & Camera – No security compromise.
Seamless OLED Display – No interruptions, just pure screen.
📂 iPhone 20 – The Perfect Foldable
Crease-free foldable design – Apple perfects what others failed to.
Optimized iOS for foldables – Smooth UI & app integration.
Apple leads the foldable market.
🚀 Why This Matters: Apple can set a new standard & dominate both innovations.
Looking forward to your response.
Best,
Saksham Sethi
The problem is the same in all of my applications. To reproduce it, in iOS 26, set the dark mode in the Brightness and display settings and in Accessibility, Display and text size, activate Increase contrast and bold text. With these settings, all the controls will be surrounded by a thin white line. When in the app a keyboard is dispayed, the thin white line does not appears correctly around the keyboard like in the capture joined, it is present on top and partially on bottom but not on sides
I am writing to express interest in engaging with Apple regarding a highly original and commercially relevant concept related to future iPhone innovation.
Given the confidential and proprietary nature of this idea, I am not in a position to share details through an open inquiry or standard feedback form.
I would welcome the opportunity to present this concept through an official and formal communication channel that ensures appropriate confidentiality and professional evaluation, should Apple have an established process for external innovation or partnership discussions.
Please advise if there is a suitable point of contact or procedure for initiating such a conversation in accordance with Apple’s policies.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to contact me though my email or phone

Hi,
I was trying to use macOS-Sequoia-Production-Templates in Sketch format and when I try to export png icon file of the document template, it always includes grey nontransparent background which I am unable to delete. In contrast, exporting png app icon file from another template has transparent background and exports well.
Is it something wrong with the document icon production template? How can I export document png icon file with transparent background??
Thanks
I would like to modify the content of a published LocationNode upon been clicked by the user. But unfortunately:
func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, options: [SCNHitTestOption : Any]? = nil) -> [SCNHitTestResult]
returns an SCNNode array from which it is impossible to retrieve the original LocationNode being inserted in order to be able to modify it.
Of course the solution would be to either insert the SCNNode corresponding to the inserted LocationNode in a custom class or conversely insert the identifier of the custom object as a tag of the LocationNode, in order to solve the issue. But both options seem impossible to implement.
May anyone help me?
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 all,
I wanted to check whether the NFC bottom-sheet UI shown by iOS during an NFC reading session can be customized.
We have a Figma design (attached) for how the sheet should look, but we are not sure whether iOS allows modifying the default NFC UI.
Is UI customization supported, or is the bottom sheet fully controlled by the system?
Thanks in advance.
I was wondering if errors are common for the code below for saving SwiftData data and what would be the best way to handle them (popup, closing the app)?
do {
try modelContext.save()
} catch {
print("error")
}
I have completed a code with chatgpt and I am unising the latest version of code. i am also using an m1 MacBook air (2020). would love to know if anyone have resolved this issue. by using the ai to correct the code it disrupts it with something. an incorrect imoout line,but after multiple attempts ai get it right. I have notice that the code shows up on the start meaning run, take some time to load the intro page.
Hey, everyone. I'm having an issue with my modal shadows when building for macOS. I've attached an image to show you what's going on.
I have a rounded corner window, and when the In-App Purchase overlay opens, the modal shadow of that rounded window is square (which doesn't make sense, and looks bad).
Can somebody please help me address this? I've tried searching high and low for a solution but I can't find anything :-(
I really appreciate you taking a look! -Logan
Hi, I just had V1.0 of my app approved on the App Store and I immediately noticed that the icon preview is broken.
It looks good in Xcode, on-device and also in the App Store link preview.
The icon was built with Icon Composer.
Here's the difference (left is App store):
Has anyone encountered the same issue and found a solution?
Hi community,
I have a question regarding MusicKit, is it necessary to follow a design guideline to integrate this framework into my App?
Also, when no music is reproducing in MusicKit which placeholder we should show, do you provide the resource? Or can we create our own placeholder?
Thanks for all,
David.
We all know that the feature “Always On Display” is available only on pro models.
I checked in iPhone 14 Plus, that feature became visible in “Search” menu under “Settings”. If a user types “Displa”, then the search results show “Always On Display” as a result.
When I click on that, it navigates inside “Display and Brightness” and we found no toggle for “Always On Display”.
So, displaying the same on search result is a big bug which needs immediate attention from Apple. Users are getting confused whether iPhone 14 plus has that feature or not..
**Possible reason: **
I believe Apple releases iPhone OS versions in a single release each time and must be applying any kind of feature flagging to enable / disable a feature in a version or for a model. The feature flagging might not be working with Settings menu’s Search service or the code is not properly modular.
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?
In the past, we had a red badge without a number on the app icon. We want to bring it back. Please provide instructions.
Hello,
Im new to Xcode, ive been taking some classes and watching YouTube videos as well as using AI. Im having an issue I cannot find a video on, and AI just keeps screwing up my layout and sizing.
Here is the issue, I have a Custom Made Image for my Sign In button, for my log in page on Xcode. The issue being that I can barely see the button and when I go to adjust the size the whole layout gets screwed up. My Logo Image (supposed to take up the top 50% of the screen) takes over the whole Botton of the screen and I loose my username and password Text threads and images. I guess my question is, is this an issue with the size of image ive uploaded or is this an issue with my code? I changed the size of the Image I created in Canva to 900pixles for the width and 300pixals for the height and that did absolutely nothing to my image in Xcode.
Below is the Button and Create Account section in my code that seems to be having issues. Ppppplease help me.

NavigationStack(path: $navigationPath) {

Hi everyone,
I’m testing our SwiftUI app on both Xcode simulator and a real iPhone. On the simulator, everything looks clean and aligned. But when I run it on an actual iPhone (same build, iOS 18), the layout looks broken—fonts overlap, spacing is off, and elements are misaligned.
Both screenshots are from the exact same screen and time. First is simulator, second is iPhone.
Any idea why this difference happens? Is there something I should check in terms of rendering or layout settings?
Thanks in advance!
With the new ios 26 beta 3 helps some stabillty and performance issues but most of the liquid glass has been removed or made very frosty look; and it defeats the whole purpose of a big redesign, and even thought the changes are because of readability and contrast complaints it should not take away liquid glass design. I think apple should consider adding a toggle or choice to choose if they would want a more frosted look or a more liquid glass look the the original plan.
i accidentally updated my iphone with the ios 18 and i dislike it. the emoji display were too huge and the picture gallery was kinda messy. i hope apple could fix this by bringing back the old emoji display and the gallery settings.
