Just downloaded the latest Swift Playground for Mac (4.6). The Welcome window does not let you scroll horizontally via mouse, trackpad, or other means, so you can only see the first two Learn to Code resources - similar for the App Gallery and Extend Your App sections.

Have downloaded playgrounds 4.3 to my iPad Air running ipados 16.5. Trying to use playground “Get started with Apps” but receiving message “Unsupported file format Get Started with Apps.swiftpm cannot be opened in Swift Playgrounds”. I do not have Mac or windows PC so am stuck! Help ??

Okay everyone who click into or just pass by this post ,to cut a farrrirly long story short ,here is the thing... I was devloping my app in the playground on my Mac , which was building for the iPad, In the early time of real machine commissioning(through the Xcode ),everything is okay everything is okay.. "well,mabe it's time to deploy my app to the playground in ipad"! Then,to top it all off🤣,then playground tell me (In case that you can't understand chinese and creat ambiguity ) emm that's too tight...,so I can only got back to the Xcode changing my language version to swift 5 then..... Noting change .... and I think err.. in order to properly deploy app to iPad ,I had to rework my code with swift 5! So, I almost fell on my knees ,can somebody who in charge of the playground ,can somebody who in charge of the playground ,just ,just! shove swift 6 in the playground (as long as it make my code run anyway), otherwise there's no way to debug it! please please plase!

I use Swift Playgrounds on iPad to run an intro to programming class with high school students. I've created some custom playground books based on Apple's guides to provide some simple sandboxes to learn basic coding. Students simply click a button on my website, which downloads my playground books so students can easily create new sandboxes. With Swift Playgrounds 4.6.1 on both Mac and iPad, clicking the link only opens Swift Playgrounds and does not download my playground books! There used to be an "Add a Subscription URL" button, but it is no longer present on the Learn to Code page or anywhere else in the app that I can find: Is it intentional that this functionality is removed? Playground Books still appear to work, and documentation for subscription feeds is still available. I start another session with my students next Monday, so I need to know as soon as possible whether I need to plan to work around this myself. Thanks, Mark Schmidt

I'm trying to add Assets.xcassets to a .swiftpm project, but I'm getting the warning: ⚠️ Ignoring duplicate build file in build source build phase (Just to know, that is about developing in XCODE, in Swift Playgrounds does not appear it, even in this second being harder to setting up) The problem is that there are no “Build Phases” in XCODE to remove duplicate files manually. I've already tried adding the path of Assets.xcassets in the resources property of Package.swift, like: .executableTarget( name: "AppModule", path: ".", resources: [ .process("Assets.xcassets") ] ) Even so, the warning persists. Does anyone know how to solve this? Is there any way to remove duplicate references or force a cleanup of the Swift Package Manager cache to fix it? I appreciate any tips! 🙏🚀

I am trying to implement a ML model with Core ML in a playground for a Student Challenge project, but I can not get it to work. I have already tried everything I found online but nothing seems to work (the tutorials where posted long time ago). Anyone knows how to do this with Xcode 15 and the most recent updates?

When running the code below in a playground file, it crashes with an LLDB RPC Server crash. The crash log is attached.

Updated to iOS 18.2 beta 1 as soon as it was released on iPhone 15 pro max. playground icon on Home Screen but been waiting all this time and no activation. Dose anyone know if there is a known fault.

Hi apple I have been stuck for 2 days and it still does not work

I am currently developing my submission for the SSC and I noticed that the swift playgrounds app for iOS does not have support for the new swift ui features in iOS 18. Are we allowed to submit apps that use these iOS 18 only features?

I'm facing an issue with Swift Playgrounds and files created in Xcode 16. It seems that Swift Playgrounds does not support Swift 6, but even when I create files specifically with Swift 5, Swift Playgrounds still reports that the files are unsupported. This creates a significant problem because macOS Sequoia does not allow me to revert to Xcode 15, which might have offered better compatibility. As it stands, I can't find a solution to work seamlessly between Xcode and Swift Playgrounds. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any workarounds or updates planned to address this compatibility gap? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I’m curious about the situation since the Playgrounds haven’t released a new version to support the numerous new frameworks released this year at WWDC24. How are we supposed to build with these new frameworks if they haven’t even been released for Playgrounds for the Swift Student Challenge?

When I go to the App Settings menu in Swift Playgrounds and attempt to upload to App Store Connect, I run into the below error screen: I am registered with the Apple Developer Program. Swift Playgrounds is updated to its latest version. This is occurring on both macOS and iPadOS. All the information I put in is valid. Any reason why this would be happening?

Hey, meanwhile it's a great thing to program apps on the iPad and to be able to load them into the App Store Connect and the App Store. What about localization in the meantime? When I open the folder en.lproj in sample apps from XCode, then there are two files stored in it: Glossary.plist (XML) and Localizable.strings (binary) Is it correct that XCode creates binary files from the strings? Otherwise, Swift Playgrounds already offers localization in the localized learning content, but i guess the binary files can only be created in XCode?

My M2 Pro Mac mini with OSX 14.7 just updated to Swift Playgrounds 4.6.1. Now the :Learn to Code & Build Apps screen is limited in size and can't be zoomed. There is no way to scroll horizontally and I can't view the whole screen.

I have created a model folder and some swift files that are contained inside the folder. I change the file names to reflect structure or content and when I close the project and reopen it the file names revert to "New File" I am using Swift Playgrounds on Mac. Not Xcode Playgrounds

Hello folks, I'd like to report a bug in Swift Playground to Apple official dev team, it's in "Learn to Code 2" - "Seeking Seven Gems". The puzzle map can't be loaded, please check the following screenshot, My system environment: MacOS 15.3 Swift 6.0.3 (swift-driver version: 1.115.1 Apple Swift version 6.0.3 (swiftlang-6.0.3.1.10 clang-1600.0.30.1)) Swift Playground 4.6.2 Xcode 16.2 Hardware: MacBook Pro/M2 Pro/32G

I’ve encountered a bug in Swift Playgrounds within “Learn to Code 2”, specifically in the “Variables: Seeking Seven Gems” section. No matter what I do—or even if I do nothing at all—an error always occurs. I’ve tested this on both an iPad (9th generation) and an iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation), and the issue happens on both devices. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on how to fix or work around it? Thanks!

In Swift Playground 4.6.2 the package PlaygroundSupport is no longer available to Playground apps. The following test previously permitted apps run in the Playground vs compiled in XCode to support different behavior: #if canImport(PlaygroundSupport) container = NSPersistentContainer(name: "myApp", managedObjectModel: Self.createModel()) #else container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: "myApp") #endif Since Swift Playground 4.6.2 the PlaygroundSupport package is no longer available for app projects in Playgrounds. Is there a different compile type test which can be used to differentiate compilation for Swift Playground apps ? I am currently having to use a runtime workaround (below) but would prefer a compile time test is an alternative is available. public static var inPlayground: Bool { if Bundle.allBundles.contains(where: { ($0.bundleIdentifier ?? "").contains("swift-playgrounds") }) { return true } else { return false } }

Hi everyone, I’ve been developing an app using Swift Playgrounds, and it was working fine in version 4.5. However, after updating to Swift Playground 4.6, the app no longer runs. After some testing, I found that the issue occurs when import AppIntent is included. Here’s a simple example: import SwiftUI //import AppIntents // <- If this line is included, Preview and Run fail. @main struct MyApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundColor(.accentColor) Text("Hello, world!") } } } Has anyone else encountered this issue? Thanks!
