My app uses AttributedString for both text formatting and storage using MarkdownDecodableAttributedStringKey. The new API for Genmoji looks very interesting but I don't see an AttributeScope for it. Is it possible to work around this and stick with AttributedString, am I in the wrong room or should I send in an enhancement request via Feedback Assistant? Thanks a lot for your time!

My app started crashing a ton with Xcode 16 beta 1 / iOS 18 because of "Thread 1: Fatal error: Never access a full future backing data". I was hoping this would be resolved with beta 2, but unfortunately this is not the case. I'm having a tough time reproducing this bug in a small sample project – I'd appreciate any hints as to what might be causing this. Full error: Thread 1: Fatal error: Never access a full future backing data - PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-coredata://10A5A93C-DC7F-40F3-92DB-F4125E1C7A73/MyType/p2), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation) with Optional(3BF44A2D-256B-4C40-AF40-9B7518FD9FE6)

Whenever I make a new app I end up getting bug reports from people who say they can't see text, or they can just about see white text against an almost white background. It always turns out to be because their phone is in dark mode, which I don't use. Almost all of my views have the background color set to "System background color" which is the default value when you create a view. Why does dark mode change the color of the text but not the background?

Hi team, Currently, I am using two Modal prompts consecutively to display force update popups based on a condition. However, there's an issue where the UI thread is occasionally not binding properly after dismissing the first prompt. Please ensure that after dismissing the first prompt, the second prompt is not bound. After reviewing everything, I understand this is an iOS core library binding issue and it's occurring from the latest iOS version onwards. Could you please provide me with a solution to resolve this issue? Thank you!

after this bug happen i couldn’t turn it back to normal screen i had to restart all for this to gone

Hello, I'm building apps for iPhone and iPad. Those are working together like a 2-screen Nintendo switch. Is there any way for communication between iPhone and iPad without an outside server? PAN(personal area network) could be a solution, but I could not find any information to use it for my case. If the iPad is connected to iPhone as a personal hotspot (though there's no cell tower), they should be communicate each other. I think there's a better way for my case. Could anyone can tell me where I start to looking for? Thanks, JJ

With iOS 18, TipKit got explicit support for syncing tip state via iCloud. However, before that, TipKit already did iCloud syncing implicitly, as far as I know. How does the new explicit syncing relate to the previous mechanism? Do we have to enable iCloud syncing manually now to retain the functionality in iOS 18? Is there a way to sync with the state that was already stored by TipKit in iCloud on iOS 17?

I can render text from TextKit2 into a PDF everything is fine. But in this case the font is embedded into the PDF. I need the Pdf to contains only the paths / glyphs and not font. I can't find a solution yet. I don't want to create an image or using UIViews etc. It would be nice to get the bezier path of the text I have done this with TextKit1 but the glyphs are gone with TextKit2 Can anyone help me ? Thanks :)

Hello, We represent an AI-powered content monetization platform. Recently, we encountered challenges during the approval process for our app on the Apple platform. Specifically, our efforts to disable screenshot and screen recording features within the app were unsuccessful. Consequently, sensitive content uploaded by content creators on our platform has been vulnerable to unauthorized distribution by users, negatively impacting our business model. We've observed that platforms like WhatsApp have successfully implemented features to prevent screenshots in view-once messages, prompting us to seek guidance on potential solutions or best practices to safeguard content creators' copyrights by disabling screenshot and screen recording capabilities on users' devices. We appreciate any insights or recommendations you can provide to address this issue effectively. Thank you for your attention to this matter. We eagerly await your response.

I want my app to be able to work upside down on an iphone so the mic can point up when it's set on a stand. But it seems that there's no longer support for this on home-button-less iPhones. Am I missing something?

Since httpRequest body is ignored on WKWebView, I am trying to display a php page by fetching the data first, and displaying it. func fetchData() { URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) {(data, response, error) in guard let data, let url = request.url else { return } // pass the result to WKWebView }.resume() } import Foundation import SwiftUI import WebKit struct CustomWebView: UIViewRepresentable { var url: URL var data: Data func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UIView { return CustomUIWebView(url: url, data: data) } } class CustomUIWebView: UIView { let webView: WKWebView init(url: URL,data:Data) { let webConfiguration = WKWebViewConfiguration() webView = WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: webConfiguration) super.init(frame: .zero) webView.load(data, mimeType: "text/html", characterEncodingName: "utf-8", baseURL: url) addSubview(webView) } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } override func layoutSubviews() { super.layoutSubviews() webView.frame = bounds } The data contains the page that display several images, but it doesn't display any of the images in WKWebView. Test and other components (such as checkmark button) have no problem, only images do. Also, I confirmed it works fine on Safari. So what is the issue here? What am I doing wrong?

for some of us, iMessage has been our number on texting and calling app we use to connect with people but there this feature the app lacks which is, the ability to put a custom image in the background of the chat page like we can do on other websites, I wish Apple could address this request of mine.

I'm a hobbiest just starting to develop an app for MacOS only, so Swift, SwiftUI, Cocoa, UIKit are all very new - I do have a background in C/C++ and various assembly languages but GUI based apps are new and feeling like a challenge. So far, I understand SwiftUI to be the latest framework and thus, in time, it's expected to superceed Cocoa and UIKit. The app I intend to develop will be a remote console for a piece of equipment connected via a serial interface. My intention is to recreate the front panel of the equipment as best I can in the app so it retains the same look and 'feel' as the equipment itself. To accomplish this it will be necessary to place buttons, labels and other textual info in fixed locations within a window. If the window is resized I don't want to reflow its content. With my minimal experience of xcode this seems straightforward using cocoa but I'm stuggling to achieve anything comparable with SwiftUI. I'm keen to avoid spending lots of time learing one framework only to find-out it's not appropriate for the type of app I wish to develop. Guidance on framework selection would be much appreciated. Thanks, Andrew

Hello guys, Is there any API developers can use to get advantage of the new windows resize and placement feature for macOS Sequoia? And of course I'm not talking about resizing the windows from your own app, but the windows from other apps. Thank you.

How to unhide an app after utilizing the new require face ID and disappear function?

For the past couple of years, Apple has been using custom sliders in Music, Podcasts, and on the Lock Screen for scrubbing music and controlling volume. But those sliders are not available to 3rd party devs. We can recreate them theoretically for scrubbing audio. But not for volume, where in UIKit we are supposed to use MPVolumeView. Anyone from Apple? Are there any plans to make the slider styles used in Apple's audio apps available to the rest of us? FB12261162

I recently upgraded to Xcode version 15.4, but after the upgrade, my app stopped working. I resolved all the dependency issues and managed to run it locally. However, when I archive and distribute the app, it shows a blank white screen upon launching it on the phone. Any troubleshooting suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
