Bottom toolbar Button truncated on Mac Catalyst 26
On Mac Catalyst 26, a Button bar item in a bottom toolbar look squished. This happens only when the "Mac Catalyst Interface" option is set to "Optimize for Mac". When it is set to "Scale to match iPad", the buttons look fine. For example, in the screenshots below, the text button should say "Press Me", instead of "…" A simple reproducible snippet and a screenshot below. The toolbar button comparison between "Scale to match iPad" and "Optimize for Mac" are shown. Optimize for Mac Scale to match iPad import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var selectedItem: String? = "Item 1" let items = ["Item 1", "Item 2"] var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(items, id: \.self, selection: $selectedItem) { item in Text(item) } .navigationTitle("Items") } detail: { if let selectedItem = selectedItem { Text("Detail view for \(selectedItem)") .toolbar { ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .bottomBar) { Text("Hello world") Spacer() Button("Press Me") { } Spacer() Button { } label: { Image(systemName: "plus") .imageScale(.large) } } } } else { Text("Select an item") } } } }

Charts performance issue
Hi, I want to recreate a chart from Apple Health and I have code like this. When I scroll - especially the week and month charts, there are performance issues. If I remove .chartScrollPosition(x: $scrollChartPosition), it runs smoothly, but I need to know which part of the chart is currently displayed.

iOS 26: Toolbar button background flashes black during NavigationStack transitions (dark mode)
I’m seeing a visual glitch with toolbar buttons when building with Xcode 26 for iOS 26. During transitions (both pushing in a NavigationStack and presenting a .sheet with its own NavigationStack), the toolbar button briefly flashes the wrong background colour (black in dark mode, white in light mode) before animating to the correct Liquid Glass appearance. This happens even in a minimal example and only seems to affect system toolbar buttons. A custom view with .glassEffect() doesn’t have the issue. I’ve tried: .tint(...), UINavigationBarAppearance/UIToolbarAppearance, and setting backgrounds on hosting/nav/window but none of those made any difference. Here’s a minimal reproducible example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var showingSheet = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { NavigationLink("Push (same stack — morphs)") { DetailView() } Button("Sheet (separate stack — flashes)") { showingSheet = true } } .navigationTitle("Root") .scrollContentBackground(.hidden) .background(.gray) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } .sheet(isPresented: $showingSheet) { SheetView() } } } } struct DetailView: View { var body: some View { Text("Detail (same stack)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(.gray) .navigationTitle("Detail") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } } } struct SheetView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("Sheet (separate stack)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(.gray) .navigationTitle("Sheet") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } } } } Has anyone else seen this or found a workaround outside of disabling this background completely with .sharedBackgroundVisibility(.hidden)? I have filed a bug report under FB22141183

ShareLink "Save Image" action dismisses presenting view after saving
When using ShareLink in SwiftUI to share an image, the “Save Image” action dismisses not only the share sheet but also the presenting SwiftUI view. The behavior differs depending on whether the photo library permission alert appears. Observed behavior: The first time the user taps Save Image, the system permission alert appears. After granting permission, the image saves successfully and the share sheet dismisses normally. On subsequent attempts, the image is saved successfully, but both the share sheet and the presenting view are dismissed unexpectedly. Expected behavior: After saving the image, only the share sheet should dismiss. The presenting SwiftUI view should remain visible. Steps to Reproduce Present a SwiftUI view using .sheet. Inside that view, add a ShareLink configured to export a PNG image using Transferable. Tap the ShareLink button. Choose Save Image. Grant permission the first time (if prompted). Repeat the action. Result: On subsequent saves, the share sheet dismisses and the presenting view is dismissed as well. Sample code ` internal import System import UniformTypeIdentifiers import SwiftUI struct RootView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.white Button("Show parent view") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { ParentView() } } } struct ParentView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { Color.red.opacity(0.5) } .toolbar { ToolbarItem() { let name = "\(UUID().uuidString)" let image = UIImage(named: "after")! return ShareLink( item: ShareableImage(image: image, fileName: name), preview: SharePreview( name, image: Image(uiImage: image) ) ) { Image(uiImage: UIImage(resource: .Icons.share24)) .resizable() .foregroundStyle(Color.black) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) } } } } } } struct ShareableImage: Transferable { let image: UIImage let fileName: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { FileRepresentation(exportedContentType: .png) { item in let fileURL = FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory .appendingPathComponent(item.fileName) .appendingPathExtension("png") guard let data = item.image.pngData() else { throw NSError(domain: "ImageEncodingError", code: 0) } try data.write(to: fileURL) return SentTransferredFile(fileURL) } } } `

Scrolling to row with a pinned header view
Hi, I have a list with section headers as pinned views. I'm trying to programmatically scroll to a view inside a section using a proxy.scrollTo(id, anchor: .top). I was expecting the view to be aligned to the top of the scroll view but after the pinned header. Instead, it's aligned to the top of the scroll view overlapping with the header, hiding most of the row. Here is a code snippet to reproduce: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { ScrollViewReader { proxy in ScrollView { LazyVStack( pinnedViews: .sectionHeaders ){ ForEach(1...10, id: \.self) { count1 in Section(content: { Text("First row") .id("\(count1), row1") Text("second row") Text("third row") }, header: { Text("Section \(count1)").font(.title) .background(.red) }) } } } .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { Button("Tap me") { proxy.scrollTo("3, row1", anchor: .top) } .padding() } } } } Any idea how this could be solved?

Section(isExpanded:) in sidebar List, inconsistent row animation on collapse/expand
When using Section(_:isExpanded:) inside a List with .listStyle(.sidebar) in a NavigationSplitView, some rows don't animate with the others during collapse and expand. Specific rows (often in the middle of the section) snap in/out instantly while the rest animate smoothly. I've reproduced this with both static views and ForEach. Minimal reproduction: struct SidebarView: View { @State private var sectionExpanded = true @State private var selection: Int? var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(selection: $selection) { Section("Section", isExpanded: $sectionExpanded) { ForEach(1...3, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { Label("Item \(index)", systemImage: "\(index).circle") } } } } .listStyle(.sidebar) .navigationTitle("Sidebar") } detail: { if let selection { Text("Selected item \(selection)") } else { Text("Select an item") } } } } Environment: macOS 26.3, Xcode 26.3, SwiftUI Steps to reproduce: Run the above code in a macOS app Click the section disclosure chevron to collapse Observe that some rows animate out while others snap instantly Expand again — same inconsistency Expected: All rows animate together uniformly. Actual: Some rows (typically middle items) skip the animation entirely. I also tried using static Label views instead of ForEach, same result. Is there a known workaround?

State loss and sheets dismiss on backgrounding app
I've been hitting a weird SwiftUI bug with navigation and state loss and I've managed to reproduce in a very tiny sample project. I've submitted a Feedback FB21681608 but thought it was worth posting here incase any SwiftUI experts can see something obviously wrong. The bug With deeper levels of navigation hierarchy SwiftUI will dismiss views when backgrounding the app. Any work around would be appreciated. This happens in a real app where we have to navigate to a settings screen modally and then a complex flow with other sheets. Sample code Happens in the simulator and on device. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { Button("Show first sheet") { isPresented = true } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { SheetView(count: 1) } } } struct SheetView: View { private enum Path: Hashable { case somePath } @State private var isPresented = false var count: Int var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Text("Sheet \(count)") .font(.largeTitle) // To recreate bug show more than 4 sheets and then switch to the app switcher (CTRL-CMD-Shift-H). // All sheets after number 3 dismiss. Button("Show sheet: \(count + 1)") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { SheetView(count: count + 1) } // Comment out the `navigationDestination` below and the sheets don't dismiss when app goes to the background. // Or move this modifier above the .sheet modifier and the sheets don't dismiss. .navigationDestination(for: Path.self) { _ in fatalError() } } } }

Back gesture not disabled with navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) when using .zoom transition
[Submitted as FB22226720] For a NavigationStack destination, applying .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) hides the back button and also disables the interactive left-edge back gesture when using the standard push navigation transition. However, when the destination uses .navigationTransition(.zoom), the back button is hidden but the left-edge back gesture is still available—it can still be dismissed even though back is intentionally suppressed. This creates inconsistent behavior between navigation transition styles. navigationBarBackButtonHidden(_:) works with a standard push transition, but not with .navigationTransition(.zoom). In the code below, .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) is also applied as another attempt to suppress the back-swipe gesture, but it has no effect. As a result, there’s currently no clean way to prevent back navigation when using the zoom transition. REPRO STEPS Create an iOS project then replace ContentView with code below, build and run. Leave nav type set to List Push. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. Return to the root view. Change nav type to Grid Zoom. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. ACTUAL In List Push mode, the left-edge back gesture is prevented. In Grid Zoom mode, the back button is hidden, but the left-edge back gesture still works and returns to the previous view. EXPECTED Behavior should be consistent across navigation transition styles. If this configuration is meant to suppress interactive backward navigation for a destination, it should also suppress the left-edge back gesture when using .navigationTransition(.zoom). SCREEN RECORDING SAMPLE CODE struct ContentView: View { private enum NavigationMode: String, CaseIterable { case listPush = "List Push" case gridZoom = "Grid Zoom" } @Namespace private var namespace @State private var navigationMode: NavigationMode = .listPush private let colors: [Color] = [.red, .blue] var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack(spacing: 16) { Picker("Navigation Type", selection: $navigationMode) { ForEach(NavigationMode.allCases, id: \.self) { mode in Text(mode.rawValue).tag(mode) } } .pickerStyle(.segmented) if navigationMode == .gridZoom { HStack { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { VStack { RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 14) .fill(colors[index]) .frame(height: 120) Text("Grid Item \(index + 1)") .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) } .padding(12) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16)) .matchedTransitionSource(id: index, in: namespace) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } } else { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { HStack { Circle() .fill(colors[index]) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) Text("List Item \(index + 1)") Spacer() Image(systemName: "chevron.right") .foregroundStyle(.secondary) } .padding() .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12)) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } Spacer() } .padding(20) .navigationTitle("Prevent Back Swipe") .navigationSubtitle("Compare Grid Zoom vs List Push") .navigationDestination(for: Int.self) { index in if navigationMode == .gridZoom { DetailView(color: colors[index]) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: index, in: namespace)) } else { DetailView(color: colors[index]) } } } } } private struct DetailView: View { @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss let color: Color var body: some View { ZStack { color.ignoresSafeArea() Text("Try left-edge swipe back") .font(.title.bold()) .multilineTextAlignment(.center) .padding(.horizontal, 24) } .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Close", action: dismiss.callAsFunction) } } } }

Xcode 26.3 Simulator renders SwiftUI app only inside a rounded rectangle instead of full screen
Hi everyone, I’m seeing a strange rendering issue in Xcode 26.3 that seems to affect only the iOS Simulator. Environment: Xcode 26.3 SwiftUI app Reproduces in Simulator only Reproduces across multiple simulator device models My code is just a minimal example Expected behavior: The view should fill the entire screen. Actual behavior: The app content is rendered only inside a centered rounded rectangle/card-like area, with black space around it, as if the app canvas is being clipped incorrectly. Minimal reproduction: import SwiftUI @main struct LayoutShowcaseApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { Color.green.ignoresSafeArea() } } } I also tried wrapping it in a ZStack and using: .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(...) .ignoresSafeArea() but the result is the same. What I already tried: Clean Build Folder Switching simulator device models Resetting simulator content/settings Rebuilding from a fresh minimal SwiftUI project Since this happens with such a minimal example, it looks more like a Simulator/runtime rendering bug than a SwiftUI layout issue. Has anyone else seen this on Xcode 26.3? If yes, did you find any workaround? Thanks.

Glass Effect Label Shadow Clipping During Morph Animation
Hi all, I’m experiencing a visual bug when applying the glass effect to a Label in Liquid Glass (current version 26.2 on simulator; also reproducible in 26.3.1 on device). Issue: On a label with .glassEffect(.regular), when collapsing via morph animation, the shadow is clipped during the animation, and then suddenly "pops" back to its un-clipped state, resulting in a jarring visual effect. Minimal Example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Menu { Button("Duplicate", action: {}) Button("Rename", action: {}) Button("Delete…", action: {}) } label: { Label("PDF", systemImage: "doc.fill") .padding() .glassEffect(.regular) } } } #Preview { ContentView() } I am not sure if I am misusing the .glassEffect() on the label and maybe there is another more native way of achieving this look? Any advice or workaround suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

hapticpatternlibrary.plist error with Text entry fields in Simulator only

File Export from iOS - eventually import too
iOS 15 - iOS 26.x, SwiftUI, Xcode 26.1.1 (rewritten without links) I’m attempting to add the capability to export a file from CoreData. Since ShareLink requires iOS16+, I found an article showing how to create a UIKit wrapper for 'UIActivityViewController' This does work, but I end up with multiple files instead of one. How do I merge this into one file? Note: I don’t think I want to write to the app’s document directory – rather I’d like to allow the user to export to iCloud. Eventually, I’d like to share a list of dates with descriptions and if someone puts a sensitive date in there – I don’t want it to be left in a directory. I would include a warning that the file that they export needs to be handled with care if there are any sensitive dates. Some might consider birthdays as private information, right? I'd also like to be able to name the file - so far when the share sheet comes up, I select "Save to Files" and it uses a default name of text.txt My next step is to be able to import a CSV file (roundtrip) - could you point me to resources for how to do that?

PhaseAnimator doesn't reflect @Observable state changes after animation settles
I ran into a behavior with PhaseAnimator that I'm not sure is a bug or by design. I'd appreciate any insight. The Problem When an @Observable property is read only inside a PhaseAnimator content closure, changes to that property are ignored after the animation cycle completes and reaches its resting state. The UI gets stuck showing stale data. Minimal Reproduction I've put together a simple demo with two views side by side, both driven by the same ViewModel and toggled by the same button: BrokenView — receives an @Observable object and reads its property inside PhaseAnimator. After the animation completes, toggling the property has no visible effect. FixedView — receives the same value as a Bool parameter. Updates correctly every time because view's parameter has changed. import SwiftUI @Observable class ViewModel { var isError = false } struct BrokenView: View { let viewModel: ViewModel @State private var trigger = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text("Broken (@Observable)").font(.headline) PhaseAnimator([false, true], trigger: trigger) { _ in if viewModel.isError { Text("Error!").foregroundStyle(.red).font(.largeTitle) } else { Text("OK").foregroundStyle(.green).font(.largeTitle) } } } .padding() .onAppear { trigger = true } } } struct FixedView: View { let isError: Bool @State private var trigger = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text("Fixed (Value Type)").font(.headline) PhaseAnimator([false, true], trigger: trigger) { _ in if isError { Text("Error!").foregroundStyle(.red).font(.largeTitle) } else { Text("OK").foregroundStyle(.green).font(.largeTitle) } } } .padding() .onAppear { trigger = true } } } struct DemoView: View { @State private var viewModel = ViewModel() var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 40) { BrokenView(viewModel: viewModel) Divider() FixedView(isError: viewModel.isError) Divider() Button("Toggle isError: \(viewModel.isError)") { viewModel.isError.toggle() } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) } .padding() } } Run the preview, then tap the toggle button. FixedView updates instantly; BrokenView stays stuck. My Understanding It seems like PhaseAnimator only tracks @Observable access during active animation phases. Once it settles at rest, the content closure is not re-evaluated, so observation tracking is effectively lost. Passing a value type works because SwiftUI view diffing detects the input change and triggers a body re-evaluation, which in turn re-evaluates the PhaseAnimator content. Question Is this intended behavior? Or shouldn't I use phase animator in this way? I could not find any mention of this limitation in the documentation. If it is by design, it might be worth documenting — it is a subtle pitfall that is easy to miss. Thanks in advance for any input!

.contactAccessPicker shows blank sheet on iOS 26.2.1 on device
Calling contactAccessPicker results in a blank sheet and a jetsam error, rather than the expected contact picker, using Apple’s sample code, only on device with iOS 26.2.1. This is happening on a iPhone 17 Pro Max running 26.2.1, and not on a simulator. I’m running Apple's sample project Accessing a person’s contact data using Contacts and ContactsUI Steps: Run the sample app on device running iOS 26.2.1. Use the flow to authorize .limited access with 1 contact: Tap request access, Continue, Select Contacts. Select a contact, Continue, Allow Selected Contact. This all works as expected. Tap the add contact button in the toolbar to add a second contact. Expected: This should show the Contact Access Picker UI. Actual: Sheet is shown with no contents. See screenshot of actual results on iOS device running 26.2.1. Reported as FB21812568 I see a similar (same?) error reported for 26.1. It seems strange that the feature is completely broken for multiple point releases. Is anyone else seeing this or are the two of us running into the same rare edge case? Expected Outcome, seen on simulator running 26.2 Actual outcome, seen on device running 26.2.1

DynamicViewContent and drop validation (macOS)
If I see it correctly, it is currently not possible to validate a drop operation on a DynamicViewContent when using dropDestination? Just a simple example: Let's say I build a folder view on macOS where I can arrange folders freely. In this case I need to use DynamicViewContent.dropDestination to get an insertion index on drop. However, it seems that methods like dropConfiguration do not have any effect. Als dropDestionation(…, isTargeted:) seems not to be available. Here is my sample code: struct FolderRow: View { let folder: Folder var body: some View { DisclosureGroup(isExpanded: .constant(true)) { ForEach(folder.children) { child in FolderRow(folder: child) } .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { item, idx in print("Dropped at \(idx)") } } label: { Label(folder.name, systemImage: "folder") .draggable(folder) .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { items, _ in print("Dropped on Item") } } .dropConfiguration { session in DropConfiguration(operation: .move) } } } struct ContentView: View { @State private var folder: Folder = Folder.sampleData @State private var selection: Set<UUID> = [] var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(selection: $selection) { FolderRow(folder: folder) } } detail: { EmptyView() } } } The dropConfiguration is applied on the Label (in this case the "Move" cursor is used instead of the "Copy" cursor). Is there any way to do that or is it just an omission in Swift UI?

Charts performance issue
Hi, I want to recreate a chart from Apple Health and I have code like this. When I scroll - especially the week and month charts, there are performance issues. If I remove .chartScrollPosition(x: $scrollChartPosition), it runs smoothly, but I need to know which part of the chart is currently displayed. Can you help me? import Charts import SwiftUI struct MacroChartView: View { var selectedRange: ChartRange var binnedPoints: [MacroBinPoint] @State private var scrollChartPosition: Date = .now var body: some View { VStack { Text("\(selectedRange.rangeLabel(for: scrollChartPosition))") Chart(binnedPoints) { point in BarMark( x: .value("Date", point.date, unit: selectedRange.binComponent), y: .value("Calories", point.calories) ) } .frame(height: 324) .chartXVisibleDomain(length: selectedRange.visibleDomainLength()) .chartScrollableAxes(.horizontal) .chartScrollPosition(x: $scrollChartPosition) .chartScrollTargetBehavior(.valueAligned(matching: selectedRange.scrollAlignmentComponents)) .chartXAxis { switch selectedRange { case .week: AxisMarks(values: .stride(by: .day)) { date in AxisGridLine() AxisTick() AxisValueLabel(format: .dateTime.weekday(.abbreviated)) } case .month: AxisMarks(values: .stride(by: .weekOfYear)) { date in AxisGridLine() AxisTick() AxisValueLabel(format: .dateTime.day()) } case .halfYear: AxisMarks(values: .stride(by: .month)) { date in AxisGridLine() AxisTick() AxisValueLabel(format: .dateTime.month(.abbreviated)) } case .year: AxisMarks(values: .stride(by: .month)) { date in AxisGridLine() AxisTick() AxisValueLabel(format: .dateTime.month(.abbreviated)) } } } } } } enum MeasurementHistoryMode { case macros case comparisons } enum MacroKindToDisplay { case protein, fat, carbs } enum MacrosDisplayMode: Equatable { case all case single(MacroKindToDisplay) } enum ChartRange: String, CaseIterable { case week = "T" case month = "M" case halfYear = "6M" case year = "R" var binComponent: Calendar.Component { switch self { case .week, .month: return .day case .halfYear: return .weekOfYear case .year: return .month } } var scrollAlignmentComponents: DateComponents { switch self { case .week: return DateComponents(hour: 0, minute: 0, second: 0) case .month: return DateComponents(hour: 0) case .halfYear: return DateComponents(weekday: 1) case .year: return DateComponents(day: 1) } } func visibleDomainLength() -> Int { switch self { case .week: return 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 case .month: return 31 * 24 * 60 * 60 case .halfYear: return 6 * 31 * 24 * 60 * 60 case .year: return 12 * 31 * 24 * 60 * 60 } } func start(for date: Date) -> Date { let cal = Calendar.current switch self { case .week, .month: return cal.startOfDay(for: date) case .halfYear: return cal.dateInterval(of: .weekOfYear, for: date)?.start ?? cal.startOfDay(for: date) case .year: return cal.dateInterval(of: .month, for: date)?.start ?? cal.startOfDay(for: date) } } func rangeLabel(for start: Date) -> String { let end = start.addingTimeInterval(TimeInterval(visibleDomainLength())) let f = DateFormatter() f.dateFormat = Calendar.current.isDate(start, inSameDayAs: end) ?

iOS 26: Toolbar button background flashes black during NavigationStack transitions (dark mode)
I’m seeing a visual glitch with toolbar buttons when building with Xcode 26 for iOS 26. During transitions (both pushing in a NavigationStack and presenting a .sheet with its own NavigationStack), the toolbar button briefly flashes the wrong background colour (black in dark mode, white in light mode) before animating to the correct Liquid Glass appearance. This happens even in a minimal example and only seems to affect system toolbar buttons. A custom view with .glassEffect() doesn’t have the issue. I’ve tried: .tint(...), UINavigationBarAppearance/UIToolbarAppearance, and setting backgrounds on hosting/nav/window but none of those made any difference. Here’s a minimal reproducible example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var showingSheet = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { NavigationLink("Push (same stack — morphs)") { DetailView() } Button("Sheet (separate stack — flashes)") { showingSheet = true } } .navigationTitle("Root") .scrollContentBackground(.hidden) .background(.gray) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } .sheet(isPresented: $showingSheet) { SheetView() } } } } struct DetailView: View { var body: some View { Text("Detail (same stack)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(.gray) .navigationTitle("Detail") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } } } struct SheetView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("Sheet (separate stack)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(.gray) .navigationTitle("Sheet") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Action") {} } } } } } Has anyone else seen this or found a workaround outside of disabling this background completely with .sharedBackgroundVisibility(.hidden)? I have filed a bug report under FB22141183

ShareLink "Save Image" action dismisses presenting view after saving
When using ShareLink in SwiftUI to share an image, the “Save Image” action dismisses not only the share sheet but also the presenting SwiftUI view. The behavior differs depending on whether the photo library permission alert appears. Observed behavior: The first time the user taps Save Image, the system permission alert appears. After granting permission, the image saves successfully and the share sheet dismisses normally. On subsequent attempts, the image is saved successfully, but both the share sheet and the presenting view are dismissed unexpectedly. Expected behavior: After saving the image, only the share sheet should dismiss. The presenting SwiftUI view should remain visible. Steps to Reproduce Present a SwiftUI view using .sheet. Inside that view, add a ShareLink configured to export a PNG image using Transferable. Tap the ShareLink button. Choose Save Image. Grant permission the first time (if prompted). Repeat the action. Result: On subsequent saves, the share sheet dismisses and the presenting view is dismissed as well. Sample code ` internal import System import UniformTypeIdentifiers import SwiftUI struct RootView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.white Button("Show parent view") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { ParentView() } } } struct ParentView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { Color.red.opacity(0.5) } .toolbar { ToolbarItem() { let name = "\(UUID().uuidString)" let image = UIImage(named: "after")! return ShareLink( item: ShareableImage(image: image, fileName: name), preview: SharePreview( name, image: Image(uiImage: image) ) ) { Image(uiImage: UIImage(resource: .Icons.share24)) .resizable() .foregroundStyle(Color.black) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) } } } } } } struct ShareableImage: Transferable { let image: UIImage let fileName: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { FileRepresentation(exportedContentType: .png) { item in let fileURL = FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory .appendingPathComponent(item.fileName) .appendingPathExtension("png") guard let data = item.image.pngData() else { throw NSError(domain: "ImageEncodingError", code: 0) } try data.write(to: fileURL) return SentTransferredFile(fileURL) } } } `

Scrolling to row with a pinned header view
Hi, I have a list with section headers as pinned views. I'm trying to programmatically scroll to a view inside a section using a proxy.scrollTo(id, anchor: .top). I was expecting the view to be aligned to the top of the scroll view but after the pinned header. Instead, it's aligned to the top of the scroll view overlapping with the header, hiding most of the row. Here is a code snippet to reproduce: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { ScrollViewReader { proxy in ScrollView { LazyVStack( pinnedViews: .sectionHeaders ){ ForEach(1...10, id: \.self) { count1 in Section(content: { Text("First row") .id("\(count1), row1") Text("second row") Text("third row") }, header: { Text("Section \(count1)").font(.title) .background(.red) }) } } } .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { Button("Tap me") { proxy.scrollTo("3, row1", anchor: .top) } .padding() } } } } Any idea how this could be solved?

Restoring most recent document at cold start in DocumentGroup iOS app?
I've tried everything I can to restore the most recent document at cold start in my DocumentGroup iOS app. Q1. I believe it's not possible, but I would be happy to be proven wrong? Q2. Why is this not possible? My users who only edit one document find it quite annoying to have to select it so frequently.

Section(isExpanded:) in sidebar List, inconsistent row animation on collapse/expand
When using Section(_:isExpanded:) inside a List with .listStyle(.sidebar) in a NavigationSplitView, some rows don't animate with the others during collapse and expand. Specific rows (often in the middle of the section) snap in/out instantly while the rest animate smoothly. I've reproduced this with both static views and ForEach. Minimal reproduction: struct SidebarView: View { @State private var sectionExpanded = true @State private var selection: Int? var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(selection: $selection) { Section("Section", isExpanded: $sectionExpanded) { ForEach(1...3, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { Label("Item \(index)", systemImage: "\(index).circle") } } } } .listStyle(.sidebar) .navigationTitle("Sidebar") } detail: { if let selection { Text("Selected item \(selection)") } else { Text("Select an item") } } } } Environment: macOS 26.3, Xcode 26.3, SwiftUI Steps to reproduce: Run the above code in a macOS app Click the section disclosure chevron to collapse Observe that some rows animate out while others snap instantly Expand again — same inconsistency Expected: All rows animate together uniformly. Actual: Some rows (typically middle items) skip the animation entirely. I also tried using static Label views instead of ForEach, same result. Is there a known workaround?

State loss and sheets dismiss on backgrounding app
I've been hitting a weird SwiftUI bug with navigation and state loss and I've managed to reproduce in a very tiny sample project. I've submitted a Feedback FB21681608 but thought it was worth posting here incase any SwiftUI experts can see something obviously wrong. The bug With deeper levels of navigation hierarchy SwiftUI will dismiss views when backgrounding the app. Any work around would be appreciated. This happens in a real app where we have to navigate to a settings screen modally and then a complex flow with other sheets. Sample code Happens in the simulator and on device. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { Button("Show first sheet") { isPresented = true } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { SheetView(count: 1) } } } struct SheetView: View { private enum Path: Hashable { case somePath } @State private var isPresented = false var count: Int var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Text("Sheet \(count)") .font(.largeTitle) // To recreate bug show more than 4 sheets and then switch to the app switcher (CTRL-CMD-Shift-H). // All sheets after number 3 dismiss. Button("Show sheet: \(count + 1)") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { SheetView(count: count + 1) } // Comment out the `navigationDestination` below and the sheets don't dismiss when app goes to the background. // Or move this modifier above the .sheet modifier and the sheets don't dismiss. .navigationDestination(for: Path.self) { _ in fatalError() } } } }

Back gesture not disabled with navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) when using .zoom transition
[Submitted as FB22226720] For a NavigationStack destination, applying .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) hides the back button and also disables the interactive left-edge back gesture when using the standard push navigation transition. However, when the destination uses .navigationTransition(.zoom), the back button is hidden but the left-edge back gesture is still available—it can still be dismissed even though back is intentionally suppressed. This creates inconsistent behavior between navigation transition styles. navigationBarBackButtonHidden(_:) works with a standard push transition, but not with .navigationTransition(.zoom). In the code below, .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) is also applied as another attempt to suppress the back-swipe gesture, but it has no effect. As a result, there’s currently no clean way to prevent back navigation when using the zoom transition. REPRO STEPS Create an iOS project then replace ContentView with code below, build and run. Leave nav type set to List Push. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. Return to the root view. Change nav type to Grid Zoom. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. ACTUAL In List Push mode, the left-edge back gesture is prevented. In Grid Zoom mode, the back button is hidden, but the left-edge back gesture still works and returns to the previous view. EXPECTED Behavior should be consistent across navigation transition styles. If this configuration is meant to suppress interactive backward navigation for a destination, it should also suppress the left-edge back gesture when using .navigationTransition(.zoom). SCREEN RECORDING SAMPLE CODE struct ContentView: View { private enum NavigationMode: String, CaseIterable { case listPush = "List Push" case gridZoom = "Grid Zoom" } @Namespace private var namespace @State private var navigationMode: NavigationMode = .listPush private let colors: [Color] = [.red, .blue] var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack(spacing: 16) { Picker("Navigation Type", selection: $navigationMode) { ForEach(NavigationMode.allCases, id: \.self) { mode in Text(mode.rawValue).tag(mode) } } .pickerStyle(.segmented) if navigationMode == .gridZoom { HStack { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { VStack { RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 14) .fill(colors[index]) .frame(height: 120) Text("Grid Item \(index + 1)") .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) } .padding(12) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16)) .matchedTransitionSource(id: index, in: namespace) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } } else { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { HStack { Circle() .fill(colors[index]) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) Text("List Item \(index + 1)") Spacer() Image(systemName: "chevron.right") .foregroundStyle(.secondary) } .padding() .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12)) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } Spacer() } .padding(20) .navigationTitle("Prevent Back Swipe") .navigationSubtitle("Compare Grid Zoom vs List Push") .navigationDestination(for: Int.self) { index in if navigationMode == .gridZoom { DetailView(color: colors[index]) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: index, in: namespace)) } else { DetailView(color: colors[index]) } } } } } private struct DetailView: View { @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss let color: Color var body: some View { ZStack { color.ignoresSafeArea() Text("Try left-edge swipe back") .font(.title.bold()) .multilineTextAlignment(.center) .padding(.horizontal, 24) } .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Close", action: dismiss.callAsFunction) } } } }

Xcode 26.3 Simulator renders SwiftUI app only inside a rounded rectangle instead of full screen
Hi everyone, I’m seeing a strange rendering issue in Xcode 26.3 that seems to affect only the iOS Simulator. Environment: Xcode 26.3 SwiftUI app Reproduces in Simulator only Reproduces across multiple simulator device models My code is just a minimal example Expected behavior: The view should fill the entire screen. Actual behavior: The app content is rendered only inside a centered rounded rectangle/card-like area, with black space around it, as if the app canvas is being clipped incorrectly. Minimal reproduction: import SwiftUI @main struct LayoutShowcaseApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { Color.green.ignoresSafeArea() } } } I also tried wrapping it in a ZStack and using: .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity) .background(...) .ignoresSafeArea() but the result is the same. What I already tried: Clean Build Folder Switching simulator device models Resetting simulator content/settings Rebuilding from a fresh minimal SwiftUI project Since this happens with such a minimal example, it looks more like a Simulator/runtime rendering bug than a SwiftUI layout issue. Has anyone else seen this on Xcode 26.3? If yes, did you find any workaround? Thanks.

Glass Effect Label Shadow Clipping During Morph Animation
Hi all, I’m experiencing a visual bug when applying the glass effect to a Label in Liquid Glass (current version 26.2 on simulator; also reproducible in 26.3.1 on device). Issue: On a label with .glassEffect(.regular), when collapsing via morph animation, the shadow is clipped during the animation, and then suddenly "pops" back to its un-clipped state, resulting in a jarring visual effect. Minimal Example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Menu { Button("Duplicate", action: {}) Button("Rename", action: {}) Button("Delete…", action: {}) } label: { Label("PDF", systemImage: "doc.fill") .padding() .glassEffect(.regular) } } } #Preview { ContentView() } I am not sure if I am misusing the .glassEffect() on the label and maybe there is another more native way of achieving this look? Any advice or workaround suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

hapticpatternlibrary.plist error with Text entry fields in Simulator only
When I have a TextField or TextEditor, tapping into it produces these two console entries about 18 times each: CHHapticPattern.mm:487 +[CHHapticPattern patternForKey:error:]: Failed to read pattern library data: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=260 "The file “hapticpatternlibrary.plist” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file."

This doesn't appear to cause any issues, although entering text can feel a bit sluggish (even on device), but I am unable to determine relatedness. None-the-less, it definitely is a lot of log noise. Code to reproduce in simulator (xcode 26.2; ios 26 or 18, with iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro): import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var textEntered: String = "" @State private var textEntered2: String = "" @State private var textEntered3: String = "" var body: some View { VStack { Spacer() TextField("Tap Here", text: $textEntered) TextField("Tap Here Too", text: $textEntered2) TextEditor(text: $textEntered3) .overlay(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 8).strokeBorder(.primary, lineWidth: 1)) .frame(height: 100) Spacer() } } } #Preview { ContentView() } Tapping back and forth in these fields generates the errors each time.

File Export from iOS - eventually import too
iOS 15 - iOS 26.x, SwiftUI, Xcode 26.1.1 (rewritten without links) I’m attempting to add the capability to export a file from CoreData. Since ShareLink requires iOS16+, I found an article showing how to create a UIKit wrapper for 'UIActivityViewController' This does work, but I end up with multiple files instead of one. How do I merge this into one file? Note: I don’t think I want to write to the app’s document directory – rather I’d like to allow the user to export to iCloud. Eventually, I’d like to share a list of dates with descriptions and if someone puts a sensitive date in there – I don’t want it to be left in a directory. I would include a warning that the file that they export needs to be handled with care if there are any sensitive dates. Some might consider birthdays as private information, right? I'd also like to be able to name the file - so far when the share sheet comes up, I select "Save to Files" and it uses a default name of text.txt My next step is to be able to import a CSV file (roundtrip) - could you point me to resources for how to do that?

PhaseAnimator doesn't reflect @Observable state changes after animation settles
I ran into a behavior with PhaseAnimator that I'm not sure is a bug or by design. I'd appreciate any insight. The Problem When an @Observable property is read only inside a PhaseAnimator content closure, changes to that property are ignored after the animation cycle completes and reaches its resting state. The UI gets stuck showing stale data. Minimal Reproduction I've put together a simple demo with two views side by side, both driven by the same ViewModel and toggled by the same button: BrokenView — receives an @Observable object and reads its property inside PhaseAnimator. After the animation completes, toggling the property has no visible effect. FixedView — receives the same value as a Bool parameter. Updates correctly every time because view's parameter has changed. import SwiftUI @Observable class ViewModel { var isError = false } struct BrokenView: View { let viewModel: ViewModel @State private var trigger = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text("Broken (@Observable)").font(.headline) PhaseAnimator([false, true], trigger: trigger) { _ in if viewModel.isError { Text("Error!").foregroundStyle(.red).font(.largeTitle) } else { Text("OK").foregroundStyle(.green).font(.largeTitle) } } } .padding() .onAppear { trigger = true } } } struct FixedView: View { let isError: Bool @State private var trigger = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text("Fixed (Value Type)").font(.headline) PhaseAnimator([false, true], trigger: trigger) { _ in if isError { Text("Error!").foregroundStyle(.red).font(.largeTitle) } else { Text("OK").foregroundStyle(.green).font(.largeTitle) } } } .padding() .onAppear { trigger = true } } } struct DemoView: View { @State private var viewModel = ViewModel() var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 40) { BrokenView(viewModel: viewModel) Divider() FixedView(isError: viewModel.isError) Divider() Button("Toggle isError: \(viewModel.isError)") { viewModel.isError.toggle() } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) } .padding() } } Run the preview, then tap the toggle button. FixedView updates instantly; BrokenView stays stuck. My Understanding It seems like PhaseAnimator only tracks @Observable access during active animation phases. Once it settles at rest, the content closure is not re-evaluated, so observation tracking is effectively lost. Passing a value type works because SwiftUI view diffing detects the input change and triggers a body re-evaluation, which in turn re-evaluates the PhaseAnimator content. Question Is this intended behavior? Or shouldn't I use phase animator in this way? I could not find any mention of this limitation in the documentation. If it is by design, it might be worth documenting — it is a subtle pitfall that is easy to miss. Thanks in advance for any input!

.contactAccessPicker shows blank sheet on iOS 26.2.1 on device
Calling contactAccessPicker results in a blank sheet and a jetsam error, rather than the expected contact picker, using Apple’s sample code, only on device with iOS 26.2.1. This is happening on a iPhone 17 Pro Max running 26.2.1, and not on a simulator. I’m running Apple's sample project Accessing a person’s contact data using Contacts and ContactsUI Steps: Run the sample app on device running iOS 26.2.1. Use the flow to authorize .limited access with 1 contact: Tap request access, Continue, Select Contacts. Select a contact, Continue, Allow Selected Contact. This all works as expected. Tap the add contact button in the toolbar to add a second contact. Expected: This should show the Contact Access Picker UI. Actual: Sheet is shown with no contents. See screenshot of actual results on iOS device running 26.2.1. Reported as FB21812568 I see a similar (same?) error reported for 26.1. It seems strange that the feature is completely broken for multiple point releases. Is anyone else seeing this or are the two of us running into the same rare edge case? Expected Outcome, seen on simulator running 26.2 Actual outcome, seen on device running 26.2.1

DynamicViewContent and drop validation (macOS)
If I see it correctly, it is currently not possible to validate a drop operation on a DynamicViewContent when using dropDestination? Just a simple example: Let's say I build a folder view on macOS where I can arrange folders freely. In this case I need to use DynamicViewContent.dropDestination to get an insertion index on drop. However, it seems that methods like dropConfiguration do not have any effect. Als dropDestionation(…, isTargeted:) seems not to be available. Here is my sample code: struct FolderRow: View { let folder: Folder var body: some View { DisclosureGroup(isExpanded: .constant(true)) { ForEach(folder.children) { child in FolderRow(folder: child) } .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { item, idx in print("Dropped at \(idx)") } } label: { Label(folder.name, systemImage: "folder") .draggable(folder) .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { items, _ in print("Dropped on Item") } } .dropConfiguration { session in DropConfiguration(operation: .move) } } } struct ContentView: View { @State private var folder: Folder = Folder.sampleData @State private var selection: Set<UUID> = [] var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(selection: $selection) { FolderRow(folder: folder) } } detail: { EmptyView() } } } The dropConfiguration is applied on the Label (in this case the "Move" cursor is used instead of the "Copy" cursor). Is there any way to do that or is it just an omission in Swift UI?
