Live activity widget not updated locally after server update
I am using live activity in my app. Functionality is start, update & end events are started from the server. There is one interaction button added using app intent in live activity widget. That button needs to update widget ui locally using activity kit. Issue is when os receives first start event push then update ui works fine and reflecting on live activity widget but when update notification receives by os after 1 mins then action button stops updating the ui locally. Can anyone please add some suggestions to fix this.

GPS Track Navigation with MapKit?
I want to create a MKRoute from a list of MKMapPoints or coordinates. But apparently MKRoute can only be generated from a MKDirections request from Apple's servers. The primary use of my app will be activities (eg hiking) in the back country where (1) a network connection likely won't be available and (2) there likely will not be a trail in Apple's map network. For example I want to provide navigation for following a recorded GPS track or my only MKPolyLines. Note that I am required to use MapKit (3rd party map SDKs are not an option for a number of reasons). It feels like a huge missed opportunity if MapKit doesn't allow Routes to be created from a predetermined list of coordinates. Does anyone know of any solutions for this problem either somehow creating a MKRoute from a list of coordinates or a 3rd party library? I've searched but haven't had any luck finding a solution. It seems like something like this must exist so I thought I'd ask.

Trigger save of a FileDocument in a DocumentGroup?
I have a DocumentGroup working with a FileDocument, and that's fine. However, when someone creates a new document I want them to have to immediately save it. This is the behavior on ipadOS and iOS from what I can understand (you select where before the file is created). There seems to be no way to do this on macOS? I basically want to have someone: create a new document enter some basic data hit "create" which saves the file then lets the user start editing it (1), (2), and (4) are done and fairly trivial. (3) seems impossible, though...? This really only needs to support macOS but any pointers would be appreciated.

NSTableView.clickedRow sometimes is greater than number of rows
Xcode has been downloading many similar crash reports for my app for some time now, related to an index out of range runtime exception when accessing a Swift array. The crashes always happen in methods triggered by user input or during menu item validation when I try to access the data source array by using the following code to determine the indexes of the relevant table rows: let indexes = clickedRow == -1 || selectedRowIndexes.contains(clickedRow) ? selectedRowIndexes : IndexSet(integer: clickedRow) I was never able to reproduce the crash until today. When the app crashed in the Xcode debugger, I examined the variables clickedRow and selectedRowIndexes.first, which were 1 and 0 respectively. What's interesting: the table view only contained one row, so clickedRow was effectively invalid. I tried to reproduce the issue several times afterwards, but it never happened again. What could cause this issue? What are the circumstances where it is invalid? Do I always have to explicitly check if clickedRow is within the data source range?

Custom, Markdown autocapitalizationType.
Hi, I've got an app that displays markdown in UITextView / NSTextView. I would like it to behave like Notes app does, that is if user types the line start modifier, e.g: "# " or "> " I would like the keyboard to show a capitalized letters. I've tried looking into overriding insertText - and it breaks the predictive text (can not insert white space). I've tried implementing UITextInputTokenizer but no luck either. Like I said, I see the Notes app does it perfectly, so maybe I'm missing something obvious or there is a way to do it without interrupting the auto-correction and predictive text. Ideally same thing can be applied to the NSTextView as the app support both platforms.

UIPasteControl Not Recognizing Tap
I have an iOS app where I'm trying to paste something previously copied to the user's UIPasteboard. I came across the UIPasteControl as an option for a user to tap to silently paste without having the prompt "Allow Paste" pop up. For some reason, despite having what seemingly is the correct configurations for the UIPasteControl, on testing a tap, nothing is called. I expected override func paste(itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]) to fire, but it does not. Any help would be appreciated as there doesn't seem to be much info anywhere regarding UIPasteControl. import UniformTypeIdentifiers class ViewController: UIViewController { private let pasteControl = UIPasteControl() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground pasteControl.target = self pasteConfiguration = UIPasteConfiguration(acceptableTypeIdentifiers: [ UTType.text.identifier, UTType.url.identifier, UTType.plainText.identifier ]) view.addSubview(pasteControl) pasteControl.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ pasteControl.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor), pasteControl.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor), ]) } } extension ViewController { override func paste(itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]) { for provider in itemProviders { if provider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.url.identifier) { provider.loadObject(ofClass: URL.self) { [weak self] reading, _ in guard let url = reading as? URL else { return } print(url) } } else if provider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.plainText.identifier) { provider.loadObject(ofClass: NSString.self) { [weak self] reading, _ in guard let nsstr = reading as? NSString else { return } let str = nsstr as String if let url = URL(string: str) { print(url) } } } } } }

GroupBox breaks ability of XCTest to find popovers?
I'm using Xcode 14.3.1 on macOS 13.5, and I've managed to reproduce my issue in a trivial application. All the project settings are left at the defaults for a macOS project. It looks like using a GroupBox breaks the ability of XCTest to find popovers connected to buttons (I suspect any UI element) inside the GroupBox. The debug console output from the code below lists 15 descendants from my window with the outside-the-GroupBox popover open, and one of them is definitely a popover. With the inside-the-GroupBox popover open, my window only shows nine descendants, and no popover (the rest of the difference is the popover's contents). It's simple enough I don't see what I could be doing wrong: import SwiftUI @main struct GroupBox_Popover_DemoApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var outsidePopoverPresented: Bool = false @State var insidePopoverPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { Button("Outside GroupBox") { outsidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item A"), isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented) } .padding() GroupBox { Button("Inside GroupBox") { insidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item B"), isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented) } .padding() } } .padding() } } struct Popover: View { @Binding var selected: String @Binding var isPresented: Bool var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Picker("", selection: $selected) { Text("Item A").tag("Item A") Text("Item B").tag("Item B") Text("Item C").tag("Item C") } .pickerStyle(.radioGroup) HStack { Spacer() Button("Cancel") { isPresented = false } } } .padding() .frame(width: 200) } } Then in my UI tests: import XCTest final class GroupBox_Popover_DemoUITests: XCTestCase { let mainWindow = XCUIApplication().windows override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false XCUIApplication().launch() } func testPopovers() { let myDescendants = mainWindow.descendants(matching: .any) mainWindow.buttons["Outside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with outside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() mainWindow.buttons["Inside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with inside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() XCTAssert(true, "Test was able to hit cancel on both popovers.") } } Any ideas? Have I missed unchecking some "Ignore anything in a GroupBox" checkbox somewhere?

Scrolling up in List after having quickly scrolled down becomes jumpy
There seems to be a bug; when scrolling very quickly down a List, and then scrolling up at normal speed, scrolling becomes very janky and jumpy, often skipping one or two rows. This only happens on macOS. I'm kind of surprised I've seen no one else mention this bug, as I can recreate it in a very simple Xcode Project. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a workaround? Steps to reproduce: Build and launch the code below Very quickly scroll all the way down using the scrollbar Scroll up at a normal speed, after a few rows it will get janky Code: struct MinimalAlbum: Identifiable { let id: Int let title: String } struct ContentView: View { private let staticAlbums: [MinimalAlbum] = (0..<1000).map { i in MinimalAlbum(id: i, title: "Album Title \(i)") } var body: some View { List { ForEach(staticAlbums) { album in Text("Album ID: \(album.id) - \(album.title)") .frame(height: 80) // Fixed height } } } }

Open new document in SwiftUI on iOS
I have a SwiftUI document based app. The iOS version has a Scene Delegate: class SceneDelegate: NSObject, UIWindowSceneDelegate { func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) { for context in URLContexts { let url = context.url // url.scheme = my custom scheme let text = ... extracted from url ... // I want to open a new untitled document with text // but 'newDocument' has been explicitly marked unavailable for iOS } } }

Arabic Text Appears Reversed and Broken in SwiftUI Lists, TextFields, and Pickers
Hello, I would like to report a critical issue with Arabic text rendering in SwiftUI apps on iOS and iPadOS. When using Arabic as the default language (Right-to-Left - RTL), Arabic text appears reversed and disconnected inside several SwiftUI components like: List Section TextField Picker Custom views (like StudentRowView) Even though the environment is set to .layoutDirection(.rightToLeft), the dynamic Arabic text is not rendered properly. Static headers display correctly, but any dynamic content (student names, notes, field titles) becomes broken and unreadable. Examples where the issue occurs: AboutView.swift → Arabic text inside List and Section SettingsView.swift → TextField placeholders and Picker options StudentRowView.swift → Student names and grade field titles Environment: SwiftUI 5 (Xcode 15+) iOS 17+ Reproducible 100% on both Simulator and real devices. Expected Behavior: Arabic text should appear properly connected, right-aligned, and readable without any manual workaround for each Text or TextField. Workarounds Tried: Manually setting .multilineTextAlignment(.trailing) (inefficient) Wrapping every Text inside an HStack with Spacer (hacky) Building custom UIKit views (defeats purpose of SwiftUI simplicity) Formal Feedback: I have submitted a Feedback Assistant report We hope this issue will be prioritized and fixed to improve SwiftUI's support for Arabic and other RTL languages. Thank you.

SwiftUI FileImporter errors
When using FileImporter in SwiftUI, the following error is always returned when closed; even if the user taps "Cancel" The view service did terminate with error: Error Domain=_UIViewServiceErrorDomain Code=1 "(null)" UserInfo={Terminated=disconnect method} Recreation rate is 10/10. It feels like a threading issue, but in SwiftUI we are leveraging the .fileImporter modifier, so we cannot hold on to the reference like we would in a class. Is there a different approach we should be using for this? Code for recreation import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var fileURL: URL? @State private var showFileImporter: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { if let fileURL { Text(fileURL.absoluteString) } Button { showFileImporter = true } label: { Text("Select PDF") } .fileImporter( isPresented: $showFileImporter, allowedContentTypes: [.pdf], allowsMultipleSelection: true ) { result in switch result { case .success(let files): files.forEach { file in let gotAccess = file.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() if !gotAccess { return } fileURL = file file.stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource() } case .failure(let error): print(error) } } } } }

FileDocument project executes ContentView(document:) twice
When I transitioned my document project to iOS 18.4 from iOS 17.4, the DocumentGroup's closure runs twice both on device, and simulator. This means that if this closure runs say ContentView(document:), it does this twice in iOS 18.4 (probably 18.x). This project uses FileDocument I created a new document project from the document app template, and it exhibits the same double load behavior in iOS 18.4, and single load behavior in iOS 17.4. Both tests are run in the simulator. Does this behavior reflect a semantic requirement where the app should be able to work with multiple document loads, or is this a bug in the document system. Compiling with Swift 5 or Swift 6 for iOS 18.4. The template provided FileDocument adopted document is used with no changes. ...App.swift: import SwiftUI @main struct Double_Document_Start_ProblemApp: App { var body: some Scene { DocumentGroup(newDocument: Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument()) { file in ContentView(document: file.$document) } } } =========================== ContentView.swift: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { static private var startCount: Int = 0 @Binding var document: Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument var body: some View { Text(document.text) .onAppear { Self.startCount += 1 // GDEBUG print("Text start: \(Self.startCount).") } //TextEditor(text: $document.text) } } #if false #Preview { ContentView(document: .constant(Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument())) } #endif =========================== Copy/paste of console output: Text start: 1. Text start: 2. ===========================

Confused about the appclip.apple.com domain
Question: I'm aware of the AASA file hosting procedure to make app clips work and link them to your website, but IIRC you can trigger app clips via the simple appclip.apple.com URL too, right? As a result no need to host the AASA file. Like my app store connect gave me the URL https://appclip.apple.com/id?p=myname.myappsname.Clip but when I click it it says "This app clip is not currently available in your country or region". However I'm also getting Bad JSON content on the View Status under the domain. I'm so confused.

Tab Bar Controller Not Using Safe Area
I have several apps where I successfully implemented Safe Area Margins, but this app uses a Tab Bar Controller and it ignores the safe areas. I am using Xcode 16.2, and Storyboards. The "Use Safe Area Layout Guides" is checked for every scene, yet none are using the safe area. Any clues?

ARView rotation animation changes when coming back to it from a navigationLink
I have an app that uses RealityKit and ARKit, which includes some capturing features (to capture and image with added Entities). I have a navigationLink that allows the user to see the gallery of the images he has taken. When launching the App, the rotation animation of the ARView happens smoothly, the navigationBar transitions from one orientation to another with the ARView keeping it's orientation. However, when I go to the galeryView to see the images and go back to the root view where the ARView is, the rotation animation of the ARView changed: When transitioning from one orientation to another, the ARView is flipped by 90° before transitioning to the new orientation. The issue is shown in this gif (https://i.stack.imgur.com/IOvCx.gif) Any idea why this happens and how I could resolve it without locking the App's orientation changes? Thanks!

Improving references to localized strings in App Intents
In order to make referencing keys for localized strings a little more reliable, our application references generated constants for localized string keys: This eliminates the potential for developers to misspell a key when referencing a localized strings. And because these constants are automatically generated by the exact same process that provides localized strings for the application, each and every constant is guaranteed to have a localized string associated with it. I’m currently attempting to implement something similar for the localized strings referenced by our new App Intents. Our initial release of App Intent functionality is simply using string literals to reference localized strings: However, I am running into several issues when trying to reference the string keys as a constant. The closest I managed to get was defining the constant as either a LocalizationValue or as a StaticString and referencing the constant while initializing the LocalizedStringResource. With this approach, I see no errors from Xcode until I try and compile. What’s more is that the wording of the error being thrown is quite peculiar: As you can see with the sample code above, I am clearly calling LocalizedStringResource’s initializer directly as Indicated by the error. Is what I’m trying to do even possible with App Intents? From my research, it does look like iOS app localization is moving more towards using string literals for localized strings. Like with String Catalog’s ability to automatically generate entries from strings referenced in UI without the need for a key. However, we’d prefer to use constants if possible for the reasons listed above.

Remove "copy cursor" when dragging a view in SwiftUI
Hi, Im new to SwiftUI and Im trying to implement some drag and drop functionality for some tabs in my application. Im using .draggable(_) and .dropDestination for this and the issue I have is that as I drag the view, the mouse cursor changes to the copy cursor with the green plus sign and I don't like it but I can't figure out how to avoid it. Any help would be appreciated.

[SwiftUI] Gesture Conflict: simultaneousGesture Causes Incorrect Gesture Recognition in iOS 18
Subject: SwiftUI Gesture Conflict in iOS 18: Simultaneous Recognition of Drag and Tap Gestures Description: In SwiftUI on iOS 18 and above, we've identified an issue with gesture handling that affects user experience. When implementing .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()), the system incorrectly recognizes and processes both drag and tap gestures concurrently, resulting in unintended behavior. Technical Details: Environment: SwiftUI, iOS 18+ Issue: Simultaneous recognition of horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures Current Behavior: Both vertical and horizontal scrolling occur simultaneously when using .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Expected Behavior: Gestures should be properly disambiguated to prevent concurrent scrolling in multiple directions Impact: This behavior significantly impacts user experience, particularly in custom carousel implementations and other UI components that rely on precise gesture handling. The simultaneous recognition of both gestures creates a confusing and unpredictable interaction pattern. Steps to Reproduce: Create a SwiftUI view with horizontal scrolling (e.g., custom carousel) Implement .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Add tap gesture recognition to child views Run on iOS 18 Attempt to scroll horizontally Observed Result: Both horizontal dragging and vertical scrolling/tapping are recognized and processed simultaneously, creating an inconsistent user experience. Expected Result: The system should properly disambiguate between horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures, allowing only one type of gesture to be recognized at a time based on the user's intent. Please let me know if you need any additional information or reproduction steps.

Live activity widget not updated locally after server update
I am using live activity in my app. Functionality is start, update & end events are started from the server. There is one interaction button added using app intent in live activity widget. That button needs to update widget ui locally using activity kit. Issue is when os receives first start event push then update ui works fine and reflecting on live activity widget but when update notification receives by os after 1 mins then action button stops updating the ui locally. Can anyone please add some suggestions to fix this.

GPS Track Navigation with MapKit?
I want to create a MKRoute from a list of MKMapPoints or coordinates. But apparently MKRoute can only be generated from a MKDirections request from Apple's servers. The primary use of my app will be activities (eg hiking) in the back country where (1) a network connection likely won't be available and (2) there likely will not be a trail in Apple's map network. For example I want to provide navigation for following a recorded GPS track or my only MKPolyLines. Note that I am required to use MapKit (3rd party map SDKs are not an option for a number of reasons). It feels like a huge missed opportunity if MapKit doesn't allow Routes to be created from a predetermined list of coordinates. Does anyone know of any solutions for this problem either somehow creating a MKRoute from a list of coordinates or a 3rd party library? I've searched but haven't had any luck finding a solution. It seems like something like this must exist so I thought I'd ask.

Trigger save of a FileDocument in a DocumentGroup?
I have a DocumentGroup working with a FileDocument, and that's fine. However, when someone creates a new document I want them to have to immediately save it. This is the behavior on ipadOS and iOS from what I can understand (you select where before the file is created). There seems to be no way to do this on macOS? I basically want to have someone: create a new document enter some basic data hit "create" which saves the file then lets the user start editing it (1), (2), and (4) are done and fairly trivial. (3) seems impossible, though...? This really only needs to support macOS but any pointers would be appreciated.

NSTableView.clickedRow sometimes is greater than number of rows
Xcode has been downloading many similar crash reports for my app for some time now, related to an index out of range runtime exception when accessing a Swift array. The crashes always happen in methods triggered by user input or during menu item validation when I try to access the data source array by using the following code to determine the indexes of the relevant table rows: let indexes = clickedRow == -1 || selectedRowIndexes.contains(clickedRow) ? selectedRowIndexes : IndexSet(integer: clickedRow) I was never able to reproduce the crash until today. When the app crashed in the Xcode debugger, I examined the variables clickedRow and selectedRowIndexes.first, which were 1 and 0 respectively. What's interesting: the table view only contained one row, so clickedRow was effectively invalid. I tried to reproduce the issue several times afterwards, but it never happened again. What could cause this issue? What are the circumstances where it is invalid? Do I always have to explicitly check if clickedRow is within the data source range?

Custom, Markdown autocapitalizationType.
Hi, I've got an app that displays markdown in UITextView / NSTextView. I would like it to behave like Notes app does, that is if user types the line start modifier, e.g: "# " or "> " I would like the keyboard to show a capitalized letters. I've tried looking into overriding insertText - and it breaks the predictive text (can not insert white space). I've tried implementing UITextInputTokenizer but no luck either. Like I said, I see the Notes app does it perfectly, so maybe I'm missing something obvious or there is a way to do it without interrupting the auto-correction and predictive text. Ideally same thing can be applied to the NSTextView as the app support both platforms.

UIPasteControl Not Recognizing Tap
I have an iOS app where I'm trying to paste something previously copied to the user's UIPasteboard. I came across the UIPasteControl as an option for a user to tap to silently paste without having the prompt "Allow Paste" pop up. For some reason, despite having what seemingly is the correct configurations for the UIPasteControl, on testing a tap, nothing is called. I expected override func paste(itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]) to fire, but it does not. Any help would be appreciated as there doesn't seem to be much info anywhere regarding UIPasteControl. import UniformTypeIdentifiers class ViewController: UIViewController { private let pasteControl = UIPasteControl() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .systemBackground pasteControl.target = self pasteConfiguration = UIPasteConfiguration(acceptableTypeIdentifiers: [ UTType.text.identifier, UTType.url.identifier, UTType.plainText.identifier ]) view.addSubview(pasteControl) pasteControl.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ pasteControl.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor), pasteControl.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor), ]) } } extension ViewController { override func paste(itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]) { for provider in itemProviders { if provider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.url.identifier) { provider.loadObject(ofClass: URL.self) { [weak self] reading, _ in guard let url = reading as? URL else { return } print(url) } } else if provider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.plainText.identifier) { provider.loadObject(ofClass: NSString.self) { [weak self] reading, _ in guard let nsstr = reading as? NSString else { return } let str = nsstr as String if let url = URL(string: str) { print(url) } } } } } }

GroupBox breaks ability of XCTest to find popovers?
I'm using Xcode 14.3.1 on macOS 13.5, and I've managed to reproduce my issue in a trivial application. All the project settings are left at the defaults for a macOS project. It looks like using a GroupBox breaks the ability of XCTest to find popovers connected to buttons (I suspect any UI element) inside the GroupBox. The debug console output from the code below lists 15 descendants from my window with the outside-the-GroupBox popover open, and one of them is definitely a popover. With the inside-the-GroupBox popover open, my window only shows nine descendants, and no popover (the rest of the difference is the popover's contents). It's simple enough I don't see what I could be doing wrong: import SwiftUI @main struct GroupBox_Popover_DemoApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var outsidePopoverPresented: Bool = false @State var insidePopoverPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { Button("Outside GroupBox") { outsidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item A"), isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented) } .padding() GroupBox { Button("Inside GroupBox") { insidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item B"), isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented) } .padding() } } .padding() } } struct Popover: View { @Binding var selected: String @Binding var isPresented: Bool var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Picker("", selection: $selected) { Text("Item A").tag("Item A") Text("Item B").tag("Item B") Text("Item C").tag("Item C") } .pickerStyle(.radioGroup) HStack { Spacer() Button("Cancel") { isPresented = false } } } .padding() .frame(width: 200) } } Then in my UI tests: import XCTest final class GroupBox_Popover_DemoUITests: XCTestCase { let mainWindow = XCUIApplication().windows override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false XCUIApplication().launch() } func testPopovers() { let myDescendants = mainWindow.descendants(matching: .any) mainWindow.buttons["Outside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with outside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() mainWindow.buttons["Inside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with inside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() XCTAssert(true, "Test was able to hit cancel on both popovers.") } } Any ideas? Have I missed unchecking some "Ignore anything in a GroupBox" checkbox somewhere?

Scrolling up in List after having quickly scrolled down becomes jumpy
There seems to be a bug; when scrolling very quickly down a List, and then scrolling up at normal speed, scrolling becomes very janky and jumpy, often skipping one or two rows. This only happens on macOS. I'm kind of surprised I've seen no one else mention this bug, as I can recreate it in a very simple Xcode Project. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a workaround? Steps to reproduce: Build and launch the code below Very quickly scroll all the way down using the scrollbar Scroll up at a normal speed, after a few rows it will get janky Code: struct MinimalAlbum: Identifiable { let id: Int let title: String } struct ContentView: View { private let staticAlbums: [MinimalAlbum] = (0..<1000).map { i in MinimalAlbum(id: i, title: "Album Title \(i)") } var body: some View { List { ForEach(staticAlbums) { album in Text("Album ID: \(album.id) - \(album.title)") .frame(height: 80) // Fixed height } } } }

Open new document in SwiftUI on iOS
I have a SwiftUI document based app. The iOS version has a Scene Delegate: class SceneDelegate: NSObject, UIWindowSceneDelegate { func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) { for context in URLContexts { let url = context.url // url.scheme = my custom scheme let text = ... extracted from url ... // I want to open a new untitled document with text // but 'newDocument' has been explicitly marked unavailable for iOS } } }

Arabic Text Appears Reversed and Broken in SwiftUI Lists, TextFields, and Pickers
Hello, I would like to report a critical issue with Arabic text rendering in SwiftUI apps on iOS and iPadOS. When using Arabic as the default language (Right-to-Left - RTL), Arabic text appears reversed and disconnected inside several SwiftUI components like: List Section TextField Picker Custom views (like StudentRowView) Even though the environment is set to .layoutDirection(.rightToLeft), the dynamic Arabic text is not rendered properly. Static headers display correctly, but any dynamic content (student names, notes, field titles) becomes broken and unreadable. Examples where the issue occurs: AboutView.swift → Arabic text inside List and Section SettingsView.swift → TextField placeholders and Picker options StudentRowView.swift → Student names and grade field titles Environment: SwiftUI 5 (Xcode 15+) iOS 17+ Reproducible 100% on both Simulator and real devices. Expected Behavior: Arabic text should appear properly connected, right-aligned, and readable without any manual workaround for each Text or TextField. Workarounds Tried: Manually setting .multilineTextAlignment(.trailing) (inefficient) Wrapping every Text inside an HStack with Spacer (hacky) Building custom UIKit views (defeats purpose of SwiftUI simplicity) Formal Feedback: I have submitted a Feedback Assistant report We hope this issue will be prioritized and fixed to improve SwiftUI's support for Arabic and other RTL languages. Thank you.

SwiftUI FileImporter errors
When using FileImporter in SwiftUI, the following error is always returned when closed; even if the user taps "Cancel" The view service did terminate with error: Error Domain=_UIViewServiceErrorDomain Code=1 "(null)" UserInfo={Terminated=disconnect method} Recreation rate is 10/10. It feels like a threading issue, but in SwiftUI we are leveraging the .fileImporter modifier, so we cannot hold on to the reference like we would in a class. Is there a different approach we should be using for this? Code for recreation import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var fileURL: URL? @State private var showFileImporter: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { if let fileURL { Text(fileURL.absoluteString) } Button { showFileImporter = true } label: { Text("Select PDF") } .fileImporter( isPresented: $showFileImporter, allowedContentTypes: [.pdf], allowsMultipleSelection: true ) { result in switch result { case .success(let files): files.forEach { file in let gotAccess = file.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() if !gotAccess { return } fileURL = file file.stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource() } case .failure(let error): print(error) } } } } }

FileDocument project executes ContentView(document:) twice
When I transitioned my document project to iOS 18.4 from iOS 17.4, the DocumentGroup's closure runs twice both on device, and simulator. This means that if this closure runs say ContentView(document:), it does this twice in iOS 18.4 (probably 18.x). This project uses FileDocument I created a new document project from the document app template, and it exhibits the same double load behavior in iOS 18.4, and single load behavior in iOS 17.4. Both tests are run in the simulator. Does this behavior reflect a semantic requirement where the app should be able to work with multiple document loads, or is this a bug in the document system. Compiling with Swift 5 or Swift 6 for iOS 18.4. The template provided FileDocument adopted document is used with no changes. ...App.swift: import SwiftUI @main struct Double_Document_Start_ProblemApp: App { var body: some Scene { DocumentGroup(newDocument: Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument()) { file in ContentView(document: file.$document) } } } =========================== ContentView.swift: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { static private var startCount: Int = 0 @Binding var document: Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument var body: some View { Text(document.text) .onAppear { Self.startCount += 1 // GDEBUG print("Text start: \(Self.startCount).") } //TextEditor(text: $document.text) } } #if false #Preview { ContentView(document: .constant(Double_Document_Start_ProblemDocument())) } #endif =========================== Copy/paste of console output: Text start: 1. Text start: 2. ===========================

Confused about the appclip.apple.com domain
Question: I'm aware of the AASA file hosting procedure to make app clips work and link them to your website, but IIRC you can trigger app clips via the simple appclip.apple.com URL too, right? As a result no need to host the AASA file. Like my app store connect gave me the URL https://appclip.apple.com/id?p=myname.myappsname.Clip but when I click it it says "This app clip is not currently available in your country or region". However I'm also getting Bad JSON content on the View Status under the domain. I'm so confused.

And how am I supposed to handle devices prior to iOS 18 which do not have this library? is adding the linker flag the right way forward?

Tab Bar Controller Not Using Safe Area
I have several apps where I successfully implemented Safe Area Margins, but this app uses a Tab Bar Controller and it ignores the safe areas. I am using Xcode 16.2, and Storyboards. The "Use Safe Area Layout Guides" is checked for every scene, yet none are using the safe area. Any clues?

ARView rotation animation changes when coming back to it from a navigationLink
I have an app that uses RealityKit and ARKit, which includes some capturing features (to capture and image with added Entities). I have a navigationLink that allows the user to see the gallery of the images he has taken. When launching the App, the rotation animation of the ARView happens smoothly, the navigationBar transitions from one orientation to another with the ARView keeping it's orientation. However, when I go to the galeryView to see the images and go back to the root view where the ARView is, the rotation animation of the ARView changed: When transitioning from one orientation to another, the ARView is flipped by 90° before transitioning to the new orientation. The issue is shown in this gif (https://i.stack.imgur.com/IOvCx.gif) Any idea why this happens and how I could resolve it without locking the App's orientation changes? Thanks!

Improving references to localized strings in App Intents
In order to make referencing keys for localized strings a little more reliable, our application references generated constants for localized string keys: This eliminates the potential for developers to misspell a key when referencing a localized strings. And because these constants are automatically generated by the exact same process that provides localized strings for the application, each and every constant is guaranteed to have a localized string associated with it. I’m currently attempting to implement something similar for the localized strings referenced by our new App Intents. Our initial release of App Intent functionality is simply using string literals to reference localized strings: However, I am running into several issues when trying to reference the string keys as a constant. The closest I managed to get was defining the constant as either a LocalizationValue or as a StaticString and referencing the constant while initializing the LocalizedStringResource. With this approach, I see no errors from Xcode until I try and compile. What’s more is that the wording of the error being thrown is quite peculiar: As you can see with the sample code above, I am clearly calling LocalizedStringResource’s initializer directly as Indicated by the error. Is what I’m trying to do even possible with App Intents? From my research, it does look like iOS app localization is moving more towards using string literals for localized strings. Like with String Catalog’s ability to automatically generate entries from strings referenced in UI without the need for a key. However, we’d prefer to use constants if possible for the reasons listed above.

Remove "copy cursor" when dragging a view in SwiftUI
Hi, Im new to SwiftUI and Im trying to implement some drag and drop functionality for some tabs in my application. Im using .draggable(_) and .dropDestination for this and the issue I have is that as I drag the view, the mouse cursor changes to the copy cursor with the green plus sign and I don't like it but I can't figure out how to avoid it. Any help would be appreciated.

[SwiftUI] Gesture Conflict: simultaneousGesture Causes Incorrect Gesture Recognition in iOS 18
Subject: SwiftUI Gesture Conflict in iOS 18: Simultaneous Recognition of Drag and Tap Gestures Description: In SwiftUI on iOS 18 and above, we've identified an issue with gesture handling that affects user experience. When implementing .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()), the system incorrectly recognizes and processes both drag and tap gestures concurrently, resulting in unintended behavior. Technical Details: Environment: SwiftUI, iOS 18+ Issue: Simultaneous recognition of horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures Current Behavior: Both vertical and horizontal scrolling occur simultaneously when using .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Expected Behavior: Gestures should be properly disambiguated to prevent concurrent scrolling in multiple directions Impact: This behavior significantly impacts user experience, particularly in custom carousel implementations and other UI components that rely on precise gesture handling. The simultaneous recognition of both gestures creates a confusing and unpredictable interaction pattern. Steps to Reproduce: Create a SwiftUI view with horizontal scrolling (e.g., custom carousel) Implement .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Add tap gesture recognition to child views Run on iOS 18 Attempt to scroll horizontally Observed Result: Both horizontal dragging and vertical scrolling/tapping are recognized and processed simultaneously, creating an inconsistent user experience. Expected Result: The system should properly disambiguate between horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures, allowing only one type of gesture to be recognized at a time based on the user's intent. Please let me know if you need any additional information or reproduction steps.
