Our app was just rejected by Apple because they say the subscription management sheet never loads. It just spins indefinitely. We're using StoreKit's manageSubscriptionsSheet view modifier to present the sheet, and it's always worked for us when testing in SandBox. Has anyone else had this problem? Given that it's Apple's own code that got us rejected, what's our path forward?

Before I waste time creating an Apple Developer Support ticket, I’m hoping an Apple DTS engineer can confirm if this is just log noise. Here’s the code: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var editMode: EditMode = .inactive @State private var items = ["Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"] var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { ForEach(items, id: \.self) { item in Text(item) } .onDelete { indexSet in items.remove(atOffsets: indexSet) } } .environment(\.editMode, $editMode) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { EditButton() .environment(\.editMode, $editMode) } } } } } #Preview { ContentView() } When you run this code and tap Edit, you’ll initially get: CoreSVG has logged an error. Set environment variabe [sic] "CORESVG_VERBOSE" to learn more. After setting CORESVG_VERBOSE = YES, you’ll see: CoreSVG: Error: NULL ref passed to getObjectCoreSVG: Error: NULL ref passed to getObject This error only appears the first time Edit is tapped after a build and run. It won't happen again, even after force-quitting and reopening the app. The issue also only happens on iOS 18.0 and 18.1—I can’t reproduce it on iOS 17.5. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to cause any negative side effects. Is this just log noise?

Hey, The new "soft" scroll edge effect is really cool! But it seems to only appear when you add toolbar items. Is there a way to add it for "custom" views as well, that I place in a safe area inset? For example, the messages app in iOS 26 does this. There's a text field as a safe area inset as well as a soft scroll edge effect. Thanks!

I have an app with a TabView containing a view representable containing a SwiftUI View with a toolbar. The representable is providing the toolbar while the .toolbar modifier provides the content. Everything works normally on iOS 17, but on iOS 18 the toolbar contents are not showing. Is this a iOS 18 bug? See the code below for a simplified example. import SwiftUI @main struct TestApp: App { @State var selection: String = "one" var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { TabView(selection: $selection) { Representable() .tabItem { Text("One") } .tag("one") } } } } struct Representable: UIViewControllerRepresentable { let navigationController = UINavigationController() func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> UINavigationController { navigationController.pushViewController(UIHostingController(rootView: ToolbarView()), animated: false) return navigationController } func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UINavigationController, context: Context) {} } struct ToolbarView: View { var body: some View { NavigationLink("Navigate") { ToolbarView() } .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) { Text("Top") } } } }

I want to play remote videos using an AVPlayer in my SwiftUI App. However, I can't fix the error: "Main thread blocked by synchronous property query on not-yet-loaded property (PreferredTransform) for HTTP(S) asset. This could have been a problem if this asset were being read from a slow network." My code looks like this atm: struct CustomVideoPlayer: UIViewControllerRepresentable { let myUrl: URL func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator { return Coordinator(self) } func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> AVPlayerViewController { let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(url: myUrl) let player = AVQueuePlayer(playerItem: playerItem) let playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController() playerViewController.player = player context.coordinator.setPlayerLooper(player: player, templateItem: playerItem) playerViewController.delegate = context.coordinator playerViewController.beginAppearanceTransition(true, animated: false) return playerViewController } func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: AVPlayerViewController, context: Context) { } static func dismantleUIViewController(_ uiViewController: AVPlayerViewController, coordinator: ()) { uiViewController.beginAppearanceTransition(false, animated: false) } class Coordinator: NSObject, AVPlayerViewControllerDelegate { var parent: CustomVideoPlayer var player: AVPlayer? = nil var playerLooper: AVPlayerLooper? = nil init(_ parent: CustomVideoPlayer) { self.parent = parent super.init() } func setPlayerLooper(player: AVQueuePlayer, templateItem: AVPlayerItem) { self.player = player playerLooper = AVPlayerLooper(player: player, templateItem: templateItem) } } } I already tried creating the AVPlayerItem/AVAsset on a background thread and I also tried loading the properties asynchronously before setting the player in makeUIViewController: let player = AVQueuePlayer(playerItem: nil) ... Task { let asset = AVAsset(url: myUrl) let _ = try await asset.load(.preferredTransform) let item = AVPlayerItem(asset: asset) player.replaceCurrentItem(with: item) } Nothing seems to fix the issue (btw: the main thread is actually blocked, there is a noticable animation hitch). Any help is much appreciated.

In WWDC25 video 284: Build a UIKit app with the new design, there is mention of a cornerConfiguration property on UIVisualEffectView. But this properly isn't documented and Xcode 26 isn't aware of any such property. I'm trying to replicate the results of that video in the section titled Custom Elements starting at the 19:15 point. There is a lot of missing details and typos in the code associated with that video. My attempts with UIGlassEffect and UIViewEffectView do not result in any capsule shapes. I just get rectangles with no rounded corners at all. As an experiment, I am trying to recreate the capsule with the layers/location buttons in the iOS 26 version of the Maps app. I put the following code in a view controller's viewDidLoad method let imgCfgLayer = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(hierarchicalColor: .systemGray) let imgLayer = UIImage(systemName: "square.2.layers.3d.fill", withConfiguration: imgCfgLayer) var cfgLayer = UIButton.Configuration.plain() cfgLayer.image = imgLayer let btnLayer = UIButton(configuration: cfgLayer, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("layer") })) var cfgLoc = UIButton.Configuration.plain() let imgLoc = UIImage(systemName: "location") cfgLoc.image = imgLoc let btnLoc = UIButton(configuration: cfgLoc, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("location") })) let bgEffect = UIGlassEffect() bgEffect.isInteractive = true let bg = UIVisualEffectView(effect: bgEffect) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLayer) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLoc) view.addSubview(bg) btnLayer.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false btnLoc.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false bg.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ btnLayer.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.leadingAnchor), btnLayer.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.trailingAnchor), btnLayer.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.topAnchor), btnLoc.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.centerXAnchor), btnLoc.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: btnLayer.bottomAnchor, constant: 15), btnLoc.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.bottomAnchor), bg.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerXAnchor), bg.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor, constant: 40), ]) The result is pretty close other than the complete lack of capsule shape. What changes would be needed to get the capsule shape? Is this even the proper approach?

Making the call as: UIApplication.shared.open(websiteURL) doesn't open the browser and gives the following in the console: BUG IN CLIENT OF UIKIT: The caller of UIApplication.openURL(:) needs to migrate to the non-deprecated UIApplication.open(:options:completionHandler:). Force returning false (NO). However, making the call as: UIApplication.shared.open(websiteURL) { _ in } opens the browser and there is nothing in the cosole. Does someone understand why is this or if it's Apple's iOS 18 bug?

I'm trying to apply a tinted glass effect to toolbar buttons in iOS 26, similar to what was shown in the WWDC25 videos, but none of the approaches I've tried produce the translucent tinted glass effect. My code structure: .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { TrailingToolbarContent( selectedTab: $selectedTab, showingAddBeneficiary: $showingAddBeneficiary ) } } private struct TrailingToolbarContent: View { @Binding var selectedTab: Int @Binding var showingAddBeneficiary: Bool @EnvironmentObject private var settingsViewModel: SettingsViewModel var body: some View { switch selectedTab { case 1: if #available(iOS 26.0, *) { Button(action: { showingAddBeneficiary = true }) { Image(systemName: "plus") } // What I've tried: // .tint(Color("accentPrimary")) // Only changes icon color // .glassEffect(.regular.tint(Color("accentPrimary"))) // No effect // .buttonStyle(.glass).tint(Color("accentPrimary")) // No tint, but orange background // .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent).tint(Color("accentPrimary")) // Works but seems opaque, not glass } // ... other cases } } } What's the correct way to achieve tinted glass effects on toolbar buttons?

We have some rather old code that worked for many years, but recently started to crash sporadically here: The crash looks like this: or Our code is called from many threads concurrently, but as said it worked without any issues until recently. I've found the apparently same crash on iOS at this Reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSProgramming/comments/1kle4h4/ios_185_doesnt_fix_cicontext_rendering_crash/ Recap: we believe it started on macOS 18.4 and is still on macOS 18.5. But maybe it was already on macOS 18.3. This matches the observation in the Reddit post well. Should we create a feedback with sysdiagnose? Thanks! :)

When you touch down on a button in a scroll view, you can cancel the tap by scrolling. In SwiftUI, this works correctly when the scroll view is not inside a dismissible sheet. However, if the scroll view is inside a sheet that can be dismissed with a drag gesture, scrolling does not cancel the button touch, and after scrolling, the button tap is activated. This happens whether the modal is presented from SwiftUI using the sheet modifier, or wrapped in a UIHostingController and presented from UIKit. This is a huge usability issue for modals with scrollable content that have buttons inside of them. Video of behavior: https://youtube.com/shorts/w6eqsmTrYiU Easily reproducible with this code: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresentingSheet = false var body: some View { ScrollView { LazyVStack { ForEach(0..<100, id: \.self) { index in Button { isPresentingSheet = true } label: { Text("Button \(index)") .padding(.horizontal) .padding(.vertical, 5) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } } } .padding() } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresentingSheet) { ContentView() } } }

Hello, community and Apple engineers. I need your help. Our app has the following issue: NavigationStack pushes a view twice if the NavigationStack is inside TabView and NavigationStack uses a navigation path of custom Hashable elements. Our app works with issues in Xcode 18 Beta 13 + iOS 18.0. The same issue happened on previous beta versions of Xcode 18. The issue isn’t represented in iOS 17.x and everything worked well before iOS 18.0 beta releases. I was able to represent the same issue in a clear project with two simple views. I will paste the code below. Several notes: We use a centralised routing system in our app where all possible routes for navigation path are implemented in a View extension called withAppRouter(). We have a enum RouterDestination that contains all possible routes and is resolved in withAppRouter() extension. We use Router class that contains @Published var path: [RouterDestination] = [] and this @Published property is bound to NavigationStack. In the real app, we need to have an access to this path property for programmatic navigation purposes. Our app uses @ObservableObject / @StateObject approach. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject private var router = Router() var body: some View { TabView { NavigationStack(path: $router.path) { NavigationLink(value: RouterDestination.next, label: { Label("Next", systemImage: "plus.circle.fill") }) .withAppRouter() } } } } enum RouterDestination: Hashable { case next } struct SecondView: View { var body: some View { Text("Screen 2") } } class Router: ObservableObject { @Published var path: [RouterDestination] = [] } extension View { func withAppRouter() -> some View { navigationDestination(for: RouterDestination.self) { destination in switch destination { case .next: return SecondView() } } } } Below you can see the GIF with the issue: What I tried to do: Use iOS 17+ @Observable approach. It didn’t help. Using @State var path: [RouterDestination] = [] directly inside View seems to help. But it is not what we want as we need this property to be @Published and located inside Router class where we can get an access to it, and use for programmatic navigation if needed. I ask Apple engineers to help with that, please, and if it is a bug of iOS 18 beta, then please fix it in the next versions of iOS 18.0

I would like to include the bottom sheet from the iPhone "find my" and "maps" app in my app. During my research I came across the new modifier .presentationDetents for sheets. The only problem here is that you can no longer interact with the main screen when the sheet is active. In my app, however, I would like the sheet to be active all the time like in the iPhone apps mentioned and that you can still interact with the main screen like in the iPhone apps with the map. I would be very happy about help. Greetings

Basically when showing a view using the .fullScreenCover modifier, it has no background anymore, any other UI elements are still shown but the view under it is also still shown.

Prior to iOS 26, it was possible to design an inputAccessoryView(Controller) that would integrate seamlessly with the system keyboard, by which I mean appearing as a natural extension of the system keyboard. For example, using CYRKeyboardButton https://github.com/tmcintos/CYRKeyboardButton. To date, I have successfully used this to provide an enhanced numeric key row within my apps, which is a distinguishing feature of these apps. It took a lot of engineering and testing effort to perfect this design. However, with iOS 26 the design is completely broken due to the system keyboard UI change, which makes it impossible to display an inputAccessoryView seamlessly along the top of the system keyboard (see attached screenshots). In my opinion, it is just plain reckless for Apple to make these kinds of trivial UI changes, which break existing app designs without adding any significant value to the user experience. iOS ≤ 18.x: iOS 26 beta:

Using an App Clip link encoded into a QR Code shows an error when scanning the encoded QR Code on an iPhone or iPad. After being scanned, the App Clip's banner is visible, but a message says: "App Clip Unavailable". Accessing the same App Clip URL via Safari works as expected. I've filed a feedback with more details and screenshots of the issue here: FB17891015 Thanks!

Somewhat rarely, but often enough to be a problem, our live activities will entirely lock up with a frozen progress spinner and a dimmed appearance. We cannot figure out what this spinner means nor how to avoid it as it is not documented anywhere. No logs appear in Xcode nor in Console.app. We have more frequent updates enabled and are sending an update maybe once every 2 minutes, nothing that should cause us to exceed our quota. We cannot reproduce in a debugger Can we get some guidance on how to avoid this?

It looks like we're encountering a similar hitTest issue to what we had with iOS Xcode 16 + iOS 18. When running Xcode 26 + iOS 26, rootViewController?.view.subviews is returning an empty array, even though the views are clearly present in the hierarchy. Last year, we "fixed" this issue using the code attached, but it doesn't seem to work anymore with iOS 26. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! private class PassthroughWindow: UIWindow { override func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> UIView? { guard let hitView = super.hitTest(point, with: event), let rootView = rootViewController?.view else { return nil } if #available(iOS 18, *) { for subview in rootView.subviews.reversed() { let convertedPoint = subview.convert(point, from: rootView) if subview.hitTest(convertedPoint, with: event) != nil { return hitView } } return nil } else { return hitView == rootView ? nil : hitView } } }

The sample code provided in "Building a document-based app with SwiftUI" (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/building-a-document-based-app-with-swiftui) does not work as expected. The DocumentGroup/StoryView toolbar does not appear for documents opened in the App. By removing the DocumentGroupLaunchScene block from the App the toolbar does appear and works as expected - but of course the App's DocumentGroupLaunchScene customizations are lost. I've tested this on 18.0 devices, as well as production 18.0 and 18.1 beta 6 simulators. If I modify the StoryView by wrapping the content in a NavigationStack I can make some progress - but the results are unstable and hard to pin down - with this change the first time a document is opened in the WritingApp the toolbar appears as expected. When opening a document subsequently the toolbar is corrupted. Please is this a bug or is there a good example of incorporate both DocumentGroupLaunchScene customizations at the App level and retina the toolbar in documents presented via DocumentGroup?

When building with iOS 26 SDK beta 5 (23A5308f), onTapGesture is no longer being triggered on Map views. This appears to be a regression in beta 5 specifically, as this issue was not present in beta 4. How to reproduce Code The following code demonstrates the issue, as seen in the videos below. import MapKit import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var location = CGPoint.zero var body: some View { Map() .onTapGesture { location in self.location = location } .safeAreaInset(edge: .bottom) { VStack(alignment: .center) { Text("iOS \(UIDevice.current.systemVersion)") .font(.largeTitle) Text("Tapped Location") Text("\(location.x), \(location.y)") } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .center) .background(.background) } } } Demo The gifs below show the behavior in iOS 18.5 (in which the tap gestures are recognized and tapped coordinate is displayed in the safe area inset) and iOS 26 beta 5 (in which the tap gestures have no effect): iOS 18 iOS 26 Next steps? Is there a recommended workaround for this issue?
