Dear Developer, Is there a way to create a function to search with inside a text without having to be outside all of the messages? In other words, could I go into one of my contact’s texts and then search specifically inside that message as can be done on Android? This would be such an amazing function And make life so much easier. Thank you.

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.

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.

I am creating a LazyVGrid with 2 columns. I want it so that if there is only one item in a row, then it goes to the center of the row. I tried using an HStack with a Spacer, but it doesn't push it to the center. How do I do it? ForEach(pets) { pet in VStack { Image(pet.species.rawValue) .resizable() .frame(width: 80, height: 80) Text(pet.name) .poppinsBold(size: 16) } } HStack { if pets.hasEvenNumber { Spacer(minLength: 0) } Button { addPetSheet = true } label: { VStack { ZStack { Circle() .frame(width: 70, height: 70) .foregroundStyle(.gray) Image(systemName: "plus") .foregroundStyle(.white) .font(.title) } Text("Add") .poppinsBold(size: 16) } } } }

Hi, Normally we need many shades of gray in any App and Apple system have only 3 , Primery, Secondary, and Gray, so to make Gray regress that automatically adapt to Dark Mode we just use opacity on these colors ? there's no system built in Gray degrees ? Kind Regards

There is a display issue when browsing wireless networks in the dropdown menu. In iOS version 18.1.1, the Wi-Fi switch is in the closed state; Step 1: Open the notification dropdown, and the first image bug appears; It will take some time for it to display [normally.]

I have an ongoing activity in progress. Think of: a delivery in progress house internet reboot in progress some water / electricity / internet / tv outage. (food) order processing I want to show a persistent toast message above the tab bar, across all tabs and screens across the app. It could take 15 minutes until the activity is finished. Obviously there's a challenge of: accessibility content overlaying with each other extra engineering effort. What we've thought of doing is: Option1: show a toast message, but when a modal is presented then it presents on top of the toast message. The toast message no longer updates itself. Once the modal is finished, then the toast message re-appears and continues to update. Option2: keep the toast message across all tabs and modals and work through the challenges mentioned Question: What are some other design approaches that could be taken to persist an ongoing activity (much like 'Live Activity', but just across the app when it's in foreground) or what are some design reasons that the two options considered are bad?

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.

I have accidentally missed the sign up window for the UX Writing lab by 1 hour, but I'd still love to join it if at all possible. I have had this lab several times in the past and it was always very informative. I have a time tracking app that helps people make the most of their time. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/timelines-time-tracking/id1112433234 I'm looking for guidance on how to improve copywriting in my onboarding sequence, on my paywall, and overall throughout the app. Thank you for considering.

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?

Good evening. I have come up with this amazing and revolutionary idea that is going to change the ent world for the better. I’m a 23 year old Design Engineer from Greece and I would like to come to direct contact with the Apple Design Team, in order to discuss this project and the best case scenario, sell it to you. The foldable iPhone is not a good idea. Its not revolutionary and it’s going to leave a big black mark in Apple history. With my idea, the whole world will see again the greatness of the biggest company in history.

Does Apple Allow for iOS Native Apps to be vetted by third party mobile app vetting companies?

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]

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..

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.

Hi everyone, I’m currently testing iOS 26 on my iPhone as part of the developer program. According to Apple’s documentation and demo materials, a new screenshot animation was introduced in this version. However, when I take a screenshot on my device, the animation remains the same as in previous iOS versions. I’ve double-checked that I’m running the correct build of iOS 26, and I haven’t found any settings that might enable or disable this feature. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Could this new animation be device-specific, region-limited, or require additional configuration? Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks in advance, Alonso Rivera

I called the viewWillDisappear method in UIViewController AVCaptureSession *session = self.session; dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{ if (!session.running) { [session startRunning]; } }); I called the viewWillDisappear method dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{ AVCaptureSession *session = self.session; if (session && session.running) { [session stopRunning]; } }); But when the user exits the background and returns to the current page, clicking 'Return' will cause an exception Abnormal information: #36 Thread SIGSEGV SEGV_ACCERR libdispatch.dylib _dispatch_source_set_timer + 32 one PrivacyAccounting 0x00000001a5ede000 + 533590244180685288 two PrivacyAccounting 0x00000001a5ede000 + 533590244180685288 three PrivacyAccounting 0x00000001a5ede000 + 1236823037899193652 four libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018ea01000 + 3414669699500290324 libsystem_pthread.dylib _pthread_wqthread + 14360117738498687264

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?
