I'm currently migrating a midsize (20k LOC) project to Swift structured concurrency. With complete checking turned on, it currently builds with only two warnings, both of which are related to the QLPreviewControllerDelegate protocol: "Main actor-isolated instance method 'previewControllerDidDismiss' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated protocol requirement; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode" as well as the same warning but substituting 'previewController(_:transitionViewFor:)' for the method name. I'm confused as to how to make these nonisolated, as they use UIKit classes/subclasses as arguments and/or return types.

I have a Catalyst app that uses popovers frequently, and I'd love to have them stay active when the app loses focus. It appears this is controlled in a native AppKit app via NSPopover.Behavior. Is this functionality exposed somewhere in Catalyst?

By default, when using Context Menu the menu will flip positions to be above or below the content based on the current screen position. Many apps however, tend to keep the menu anchored to the bottom of the content it is associated with and move the content up to fit the menu (iMessage messages for example). In order to get this behavior, where the menu is always anchored to the bottom and the content "shifts up" to make space you have to use a custom preview by passing a previewProvider. So to get the desired behavior you can use a preview that is the same content as the original view. However, when you do this there is a small fade in animation that gets added and since the content of the original view and preview is the same this appears as a flicker. Is there any way to disable this fade animation or force anchor the menu to the bottom when using the standard preview?

Hi, I'm making a WatchKit game app with SpriteKit and Objective-C, and I'm encountering an annoyance where system gestures, namely long-pressing the top and bottom edges to pull Notification/Control Center, interfere with the controls of the game. In iOS, this can be mitigated by using overriding preferredScreenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures in UIViewController, but I couldn't find any equivalent API in any WatchKit class, and searching for similar symbols only yielded a single private API (-[_UISystemAppearanceManager screenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures]) that isn't ever called on watchOS. Any idea how to achieve a similar effect on watchOS?

Is there a way to make UITextField activate when double-tapped? Single-tapping makes it a little too easy to do something calamitous in my app.

As of macOS Sequoia 15.1 (and probably earlier), in System Settings under Accessibility -> Display, there's a Text Size option that looks an awful lot like Dynamic Type on iOS: I have an iOS app with robust support for Dynamic Type that I've brought to the Mac via Catalyst. Is there any way for me to opt this app into supporting this setting, maybe with some Info.plist key? Calendar's Info.plist has a CTIgnoreUserFonts value set to true, but the Info.plist for Notes has no such value.

We have to draw polygons inside a MKMapView based on coordinates retrieved from external source. It seems that MapKit does not behave correctly where polygons have single-vertex self-intersection. Here it's a simple point list example (every element is a pair of latitude and longitude values): [(0, 0), (20, 0), (10, 10), (20, 20), (0, 20), (10, 10), (0, 0)] The next image shows the rendering issue. But if the list is slightly changed in this way [(0, 0), (20, 0), (10, 10), (20, 20), (0, 20), (15, 10), (0, 0)] the issue disappears. The next image shows it. So it's not a self-intersection and self-tangency problem, but we think single-vertex self-intersection is a buggy edge case for MapKit. Right now we fixed this problem by finding the duplicated coordinates and applying a small offset (1e-8) to one of them, but it's a temporary solution and adds rendering delay. The problem is not due to iOS versions, since iOS 17 and 18 have the same issue. Also it happens on simulators and real devices. Here is the playground example, based mostly on the "Map Playground" template Xcode offers. If you run it without modifying it, the playground shows the "bugged" polygon. If you use notBugPoints instead of the default bugPoints for the polygon, the playground shows the "not-bugged" polygon. import MapKit import PlaygroundSupport // Create an MKMapViewDelegate to provide a renderer for our overlay class MapViewDelegate: NSObject, MKMapViewDelegate { func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, rendererFor overlay: MKOverlay) -> MKOverlayRenderer { if let overlay = overlay as? MKPolygon { let polygonRenderer = MKPolygonRenderer(overlay: overlay) polygonRenderer.fillColor = .red return polygonRenderer } return MKOverlayRenderer(overlay: overlay) } } // Create a strong reference to a delegate let delegate = MapViewDelegate() // Create an MKMapView let mapView = MKMapView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 800, height: 800)) mapView.delegate = delegate // Configure The Map elevation and emphasis style let configuration = MKStandardMapConfiguration(elevationStyle: .realistic, emphasisStyle: .default) mapView.preferredConfiguration = configuration // Create an overlay let bugPoints = [ MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 0)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(20, 0)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(10, 10)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(20, 20)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 20)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(10, 10)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 0)) ] let notBugPoints = [ MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 0)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(20, 0)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(10, 10)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(20, 20)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 20)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(15, 10)), MKMapPoint(CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(0, 0)) ] let polygon = MKPolygon(points: bugPoints, count: notBugPoints.count) mapView.addOverlay(polygon) // Frame our annotation and overlay mapView.camera = MKMapCamera(lookingAtCenter: CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(10, 10), fromDistance: 5000000, pitch: 0, heading: 0) // Add the created mapView to our Playground Live View PlaygroundPage.current.liveView = mapView

I have a Catalyst app that supports multiple scenes / windows. It has one "main" window type and lots of other secondary windows that can be opened. I'm using the system window restoration functionality via NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows to restore windows with their user activity data after the app is quit and restarted. Normally, this works great. If I open my app, change the size and position of my window, quit, and reopen it, the window size and position comes back as expected. But if I close the window using the red stoplight button and then click the app icon to bring it back, it comes back at the default position and size. This isn't how other system apps work - if I close the system Calendar app with the stoplight button, it comes back at the same size and position. How do I get this behavior with my Catalyst app? Is there some identifier property I need to set somewhere? I don't see such a property on UISceneConfiguration. If it matters, I'm using the configurationForConnectingSceneSession method to configure my windows when they open, instead of setting it up in the Info.plist.

Hi All I faced up with strange issue in my app. Everything works in iOS 18.0 and lower. But after install iOS 18.1 same app from App Store crashes every time with error: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Storyboard (<UIStoryboard: 0x11f6287a0>) doesn't contain a view controller with identifier 'MKCPinEntryViewControllerIdentifier'' Interesting that this view controller exist in the Storyboard.

Could someone help me, what's wrong with the app?

In iOS 18, I've noticed that the clipToBounds setting for UINavigationTransitionView is turned "OFF." What could be the reason? In previous versions (checked up to iOS 15), it was enabled, and direct access to UINavigationTransitionView isn't provided.

I belong to an EC shop application developers' team, and we got a crame from a small part of our customers about our application. "Search Bar does not work on iOS 18." This bug doesn't appear on most of our devices updated to iOS 18.0. In some cases, it disappeared by turning [Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Reachability] off. But it is not the same for all customers found the bug. I'm looking for how to fix this bug, and why it happens.

Hi, My methodA is synchronous and be called in main thread. methodA gets input strings from methodB via poping a UIAlertController with UITextField. I have two versions of codes as below. On some iphones with iOS versions, both two versions codes works, such as iPhone SE2 with iOS 17.7. But on some iphones with iOS versions, the two versions of codes can't work, such as iPhone XR with iOS 18.0.1 or iPhone 14 plus with iOS 13.6.

The Maps app on macOS always zooms the same way (two fingers up to zoom in, two fingers down to zoom out) when the shift key is held down, regardless of whether natural scrolling is turned off. I'd like to replicate this same behavior using UIPanGestureRecognizer, but the translation is always inverted whenever I disable natural scrolling. How can I detect if natural scrolling is enabled or disabled when the pan gesture is detected?
