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??

When using UIPageViewController inside a UITabBarController on iOS 26 with Liquid Glass adoption, visiting the PageViewController tab applies a blur effect to the navigation bar and tab bar even though the current child view controller of the pageView is not scrollable and does not reach behind these bars. Questions: Is this the expected behavior that the pageview's internal scroll view causes the bars to blur regardless of the page view's child content’s scrollability? If so, is there an official way to make the blur effect appear only when the pageview's current child view controller actually scrolls behind the navigation bar or tab bar, and not in static cases? Tried the same in SwiftUI using TabView and TabView with page style. Facing the same issue there as well. Sample screenshots for reference, Sample SwiftUI code, struct TabContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { // First Tab: Paging View PagingView() .tabItem { Label("Pages", systemImage: "square.fill.on.square.fill") } // Second Tab: Normal View NavigationStack { ListView() } .tabItem { Label("Second", systemImage: "star.fill") } // Third Tab: Normal View PageView(color: .blue, text: "Page 3") .tabItem { Label("Third", systemImage: "gearshape.fill") } } .ignoresSafeArea() } } struct PagingView: View { var body: some View { TabView { PageView(color: .red, text: "Page 1") PageView(color: .green, text: "Page 2") PageView(color: .blue, text: "Page 3") } .tabViewStyle(.page) // Enables swipe paging .indexViewStyle(.page(backgroundDisplayMode: .always)) .ignoresSafeArea()// Dots indicator } }

Hi Support Team, I am new here. I am unable to add my fonts to the asset catalog there is no option to add new font set when I click the plus sign. When I drag my files in they show up as data. I have a Contents.json in the font folder called BeVietnamProFont.font. Is there something I am doing wrong?

I've observed a difference in the layout of menu items within ContextMenu and Menu when comparing system applications to my own SwiftUI app, specifically concerning the order of icons and titles. On iOS 26, system apps (as shown in the image in the "System App" column) appear to display the item's icon before its title for certain menu items. However, in my SwiftUI app, when I use a Label (e.g. Label("Paste", systemImage: "doc.on.clipboard")) or an HStack containing an Image and Text, the icon consistently appears after the title within both ContextMenu and Menu items. I'm aiming to achieve the "icon first, then title" layout as seen in system apps. My attempts to arrange this order using HStack directly within the Button's label closure: Menu { Button { /* ... */ } label: { HStack { Image(systemName: "doc.on.clipboard") Text(String(localized: "Paste")) } } // ... } label: { Text("タップミー") } seem to be overridden or restricted by the OS, which forces the icon to the leading position (as shown in the image in the "Custom App" column). System App Custom App Is there a specific SwiftUI modifier, or any other setting I might have overlooked that allows developers to control the icon/title order within ContextMenu or Menu items to match the system's behavior? Or is this a system-controlled layout that app developers currently cannot customize, and we need to wait for potential changes from Apple to expose this capability for in-app menus? Thanks in advance!

My apple app rejected on 9 of July 2025 but I didn't recieve any confirmation on mail can you please provide any written confirmation why my mail is not approved with all possibe conditions.

Does anyone have any documentation for how to achieve the floating search tab item in UIKit apps that use UITabBarController? The Liquid Glass UIKit video had code for minimizing the tab bar on scroll down, but I didn't see anything on keeping the search button locked to the bottom trailing edge (as in this screenshot below).

Someone smarter than me please tell me if this will work... I want to have an edit screen for a SwiftData class. Auto Save is on, but I want to be able to revert changes. I have read all about sending a copy in, sending an ID and creating a new context without autosave, etc. What about simply creating a second set of ephemeral values in the actual original model. initialize them with the actual fields. Edit them and if you save changes, migrate that back to the permanent fields before returning. Don't have to manage a list of @State variables corresponding to every model field, and don't have to worry about a second model context. Anyone have any idea of the memory / performance implications of doing it this way, and if it is even possible? Does this just make a not quite simple situation even more complicated? Haven't tried yet, just got inspiration from reading some medium content on attributes on my lunch break, and wondering if I am just silly for considering it.

Hello! I’m excited to see that Look to Scroll has been included in visionOS 26 Beta. I’m aiming to achieve a feature where the user’s gaze at a specific edge automatically scrolls to that position. However, I’ve experimented with ScrollView and haven’t been able to trigger this functionality. Could you advise if additional API modifiers are necessary? Thank you!

I am trying to create a menu picker for two or three text items. Small miracles, but I have it basically working. Problem is it uses a set, and I want to pass arrays. I need to modify PickerView so the Bound Parameter is an [String] instead of Set. Have been fighting this for a while now... Hoping for insights. struct PickerView: View { @Binding var colorChoices: Set<String> let defaults = UserDefaults.standard var body: some View { let possibleColors = defaults.object(forKey: "ColorChoices") as? [String] ?? [String]() Menu { ForEach(possibleColors, id: \.self) { item in Button(action: { if colorChoices.contains(item) { colorChoices.remove(item) } else { colorChoices.insert(item) } }) { HStack { Text(item) Spacer() if colorChoices.contains(item) { Image(systemName: "checkmark") } } } } } label: { Label("Select Items", systemImage: "ellipsis.circle") } Text("Selected Colors: \(colorChoices, format: .list(type: .and))") } } #Preview("empty") { @Previewable @State var colorChoices: Set<String> = [] PickerView(colorChoices: $colorChoices) } #Preview("Prefilled") { @Previewable @State var colorChoices: Set<String> = ["Red","Blue"] PickerView(colorChoices: $colorChoices) } My Content View is suppose to set default values the first time it runs, if no values already exist... import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var viewDidLoad: Bool = false var body: some View { HomeView() .onAppear { // The following code should execute once the first time contentview loads. If a user navigates back to it, it should not execute a second time. if viewDidLoad == false { viewDidLoad = true // load user defaults let defaults = UserDefaults.standard // set the default list of school colors, unless the user has already updated it prior let defaultColorChoices: [String] = ["Black","Gold","Blue","Red","Green","White"] let colorChoices = defaults.object(forKey: "ColorChoices") as? [String] ?? defaultColorChoices defaults.set(colorChoices, forKey: "ColorChoices") } } } } #Preview { ContentView() } PickLoader allows you to dynamically add or delete choices from the list... import SwiftUI struct PickLoader: View { @State private var newColor: String = "" var body: some View { Form { Section("Active Color Choices") { // we should have set a default color list in contentview, so empty string should not be possible. let defaults = UserDefaults.standard let colorChoices = defaults.object(forKey: "ColorChoices") as? [String] ?? [String]() List { ForEach(colorChoices, id: \.self) { color in Text(color) } .onDelete(perform: delete) HStack { TextField("Add a color", text: $newColor) Button("Add"){ defaults.set(colorChoices + [newColor], forKey: "ColorChoices") newColor = "" } } } } } .navigationTitle("Load Picker") Button("Reset Default Choices") { let defaults = UserDefaults.standard //UserDefaults.standard.removeObject(forKey: "ColorChoices") let colorChoices: [String] = ["Black","Gold","Blue","Red","Green","White"] defaults.set(colorChoices, forKey: "ColorChoices") } Button("Clear all choices") { let defaults = UserDefaults.standard defaults.removeObject(forKey: "ColorChoices") } } } func delete(at offsets: IndexSet) { let defaults = UserDefaults.standard var colorChoices = defaults.object(forKey: "ColorChoices") as? [String] ?? [String]() colorChoices.remove(atOffsets: offsets) defaults.set(colorChoices, forKey: "ColorChoices") } #Preview { PickLoader() } And finally HomeView is where I am testing from - to see if binding works properly... import SwiftUI struct HomeView: View { //@State private var selection: Set<String> = [] //@State private var selection: Set<String> = ["Blue"] @State private var selection: Set<String> = ["Blue", "Red"] var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { Section("Edit Picker") { NavigationLink("Load Picker") { PickLoader() } } Section("Test Picker") { PickerView(colorChoices: $selection) } Section("Current Results") { Text("Current Selection: \(selection, format: .list(type: .and))") } } .navigationBarTitle("Hello, World!") } } } #Preview { HomeView() } If anyone uses this code, there are still issues - buttons on Loader don't update the list on the screen for one, and also dealing with deleting choices that are in use - how does picker deal with them? Probably simply add to the list automatically and move on. If anyone has insights on any of this also, great! but first I just need to understand how to accept an array instead of a set in pickerView. I have tried using a computed value with a get and set, but I can't seem to get it right. Thanks for any assistance! Cheers!

Hi all, After upgrading to the iOS 26 beta, the scrolling in my SwiftUI chat view is completely broken. The exact same code works perfectly on iOS 18. Context: I have a chat view using ScrollViewReader and a vertically-reversed ScrollView (with .rotationEffect(.degrees(180))). Each message row (MessageBubble) uses multiple simultaneousGesture handlers: Horizontal drag for swipe-to-reply (and other actions: pin, delete) Long press for showing popover/actions Vertical scroll for normal chat scrolling This was working great on iOS 18. In iOS 26 beta, the vertical scroll is either completely disabled, jittery, or hijacked by the message row’s drag gestures, even though .simultaneousGesture is used (see code below). Minimal Repro Sample MessageListView.swift swift Copy Edit ScrollViewReader { proxy in ScrollView(.vertical, showsIndicators: false) { LazyVStack(spacing: 0) { // ... grouped messages ForEach(...) { ... MessageBubble(...) // see below } Color.clear.frame(height: 8).id("BOTTOM_ANCHOR") } .padding(.horizontal, 4) .rotationEffect(.degrees(180)) } .rotationEffect(.degrees(180)) } MessageBubble.swift struct MessageBubble: View { // ... var body: some View { // horizontal swipe-to-reply gesture let dragGesture = DragGesture(minimumDistance: 10) // ... ZStack { // ... HStack { ... } // ... .simultaneousGesture( DragGesture(minimumDistance: 0) // for long press // ... ) .simultaneousGesture(dragGesture) // for horizontal swipe } // ... } }

Hello Apple App Review Team, We are using Privy to enable sign in with Farcaster in our app. Privy is a 3rd party authentication SDK, and it currently opens the authentication URL using the system browser. Unfortunately, this behavior is handled internally by Privy and we do not have access or control to override it in order to present the sign-in flow in-app using SFSafariViewController. We understand the importance of maintaining a seamless and secure user experience, and we fully support the use of SFSafariViewController or ASWebAuthenticationSession. However, since Privy does not expose an option to change this behavior at the moment, we are limited by their current implementation. We have reached out to the Privy team requesting a change or improvement that would allow us to use SFSafariViewController instead of the external browser. In the meantime, we would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed, or whether an exception could be granted due to this 3rd party SDK limitation. Thank you for your understanding and support.

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!

iOS 26 Beta 3 finally introduced an API for the clear variant of Liquid Glass. But is there any way to switch system controls like the NavigationController back button or UIBarButtonItems to clear? They do not accept an effect like UIEffectView, and they do not have a configuration property like UIButton.

I am creating 500 textfield widgets and then updating them and all their 40 properties at once. I require to update all 500 widgets with their properties at once as it is a usecase in our app, so pooling and showing only those that will be on screen won't really help in this case. I have found that for updating all these 500 textfield widgets with their 40 properties, the time taken is 80 to 100 milliseconds. However, if I update the non-string properties like .text, then it comes down to half which is 40 to 50 milliseconds. Wanted to know if there was a far more quicker or optimized way to do this? The following snippet of code shows what I am doing: @objc private func handleImmediateMode() { let startTime = CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent() for (index, textField) in retainedInputFields.enumerated() { updateAllProperties(for: textField, index: index) } let endTime = CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent() print("Immediate Mode -- (500 fields, 40 props): \( (endTime - startTime) * 1000) ms") } In the above code, I have already created the 500 textfield widget, and then in updateAllProperties () function I am passing the textfield widget to it and then updating the 40 properties that the widget has. Particularily, the following properties: textField.placeholder = "Input Field (index)" UILabel().text Seem to be adding the extra 40 - 50 milliseconds.

SwiftUI.List allows for customization using .listItemTint, .tint, or .foregroundStyle. This can be used to color individual items in the list, other than the app's specified accent color. Is there an equivalent feature to customize individual Tab's icon or label, when using TabView's SidebarAdaptableTabViewStyle, and its in the sidebar style. From what I understand, there needs to be a modifier applied directly to Tab unlike List, and not just the label. Since there isn't any color/tint modifiers, is it not possible?

I've been experimenting with Liquid Glass quite a bit and watched all the WWDC videos. I'm trying to create a glassy segmented picker, like the one used in Camera: however, it seems that no matter what I do there's no way to recreate a truly clear (passthrough) bubble that just warps the light underneath around the edges. Both Glass.regular and Glass.clear seem to add a blur that can not be evaded, which is counter to what clear ought to mean. Here are my results: I've used SwiftUI for my experiment but I went through the UIKit APIs and there doesn't seem to be anything that suggests full transparency. Here is my test SwiftUI code: struct GlassPicker: View { @State private var selected: Int? var body: some View { ScrollView([.horizontal], showsIndicators: false) { HStack(spacing: 0) { ForEach(0..<20) { i in Text("Row \(i)") .id(i) .padding() } } .scrollTargetLayout() } .contentMargins(.horizontal, 161) .scrollTargetBehavior(.viewAligned) .scrollPosition(id: $selected, anchor: .center) .background(.foreground.opacity(0.2)) .clipShape(.capsule) .overlay { DefaultGlassEffectShape() .fill(.clear) // Removes a semi-transparent foreground fill .frame(width: 110, height: 50) .glassEffect(.clear) } } } Is there any way to achieve the above result or does Apple not trust us devs with more granular control over these liquid glass elements?

Reference Feedback FB19152594 Occurs with my 3rd Party UIKit App called "Lifeorities". Latest occurrence was 7/27/25 at 13:49 pm. Launch app (actual device running iPadOS 26 or iPadOS 26 simulator) Initial screen displays view content and floating tab bar at top of screen (both portrait orientation and landscape). Floating tab bar items respond to liquid glass effect (but liquid glass appearance of the whole tab bar doesn't comply with new glass pill shaped tab bar area). Selected tab bar item obeys selected app designated color (assets). Unselected tab bar items are using black text which is unreadable on app background which used dark mode as default (as intended). Selecting another tab bar item shows the liquid glass effect as you navigate to the new tab bar item and shows the app designated color (assets). Previous tab bar item that was selected, now is unselected and shows black text. NOTE: iOS tab bar items work fine (show white foreground color as desired for unselected tab bar items).

Hi all. I have tried using UIDesignRequiresCompatibility YES & NO for an application. Running on iOS 26 BETA 5 makes no difference to the UI. Running on Simulator MacOSS 26 BETA 5 makes no difference to the UI. Anyone had luck with this info plist setting?

On iOS 26 not able to control size of UITabBar. Sharing code below. Colour is applying correctly but somehow _UITabBarPlatterView which turns out as TabBar is not extending; leaving spaces on left, right & bottom sides. class CustomTabBar: UITabBar { override init(frame: CGRect) { super.init(frame: frame) backgroundColor = .red let firstItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Home", image: UIImage(systemName: "house"), tag: 0) let secondItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Search", image: UIImage(systemName: "magnifyingglass"), tag: 1) let thirdItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Profile", image: UIImage(systemName: "person.circle"), tag: 2) items = [firstItem, secondItem, thirdItem] selectedItem = firstItem } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } } class ViewController: UIViewController { let tabBar: CustomTabBar = { let tb = CustomTabBar() tb.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false return tb }() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground view.addSubview(tabBar) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ tabBar.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor, constant: 25), tabBar.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor, constant: -25), tabBar.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.bottomAnchor) ]) } } when specifying height in CustomTabBar explicitly... func alignInternalSubViews() { subviews.forEach { subView in subView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ subView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topAnchor), subView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leadingAnchor), subView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: trailingAnchor), subView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bottomAnchor), subView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 62) ]) } } What should I need to do in order to get this capsule _UITabBarPlatterView and its subviews resize accordingly?

UIBarButtonItem setting isEnabled = false, but the item is still tappable and animating. Is this a new UI behavior or an issue? Do the following steps: On tapping on a UIBarButtonItem, disable by setting isEnabled = false and setting hidesSharedBackground = true Enable the button by setting isEnabled = true and setting hidesSharedBackground = false => The button appears with bigger shared background is this an issue? please find the attachments for more details.
