Enabling Show Tab Bar Programmatically
I have a macOS application developed in SwiftUI. It's a document-based application. I know how to hide the Show Tab Bar command under View. I don't want to hide it. I always want to show tabs. I wonder how to enable this command programmatically such that the document window always has the + button to the right. Thanks.

A wrinkle converting a UIKit Document-based app to SwiftUI Document Group
The app I'm converting includes two unique document types. UI-wise they have key similarities (eg contents are password protected) But serialization/model - wise. they are different documents. I have not been able to find any documentation on options for implementing this (eg use a (abstract?) base class derived from FileDocument, with two concrete sub classes? maybe just a single subclass of FileDocument that contains model details for both file types?) Stepping back from implementation options, am I crazy for attempting to use DocumentGroup to create a single app that would need to be able to open/modify/save multiple unique document types? any/all guidance much appreciated.

NSTextLists not rendered when NSTextContentStorageDelegate textContentStorage (_:, textParagraphWith:) is implemented
I have a UITextView that contains paragraphs with text bullet lists (via NSTextList). I also implement NSTextContentStorageDelegate.textContentStorage(_:, textParagraphWith:) in order to apply some custom attributes to the text without affecting the underlying attributed text. My implementation returns a new NSParagraph that modifies the foreground color of the text. I based this on the example in the WWDC 21 session "Meet Text Kit 2". UITextView stops rendering the bullets when I implement the delegate function and return a custom paragraph. Why? func textContentStorage(_ textContentStorage: NSTextContentStorage, textParagraphWith range: NSRange) -> NSTextParagraph? { guard let originalText = textContentStorage.textStorage?.attributedSubstring(from: range) else { return nil } let updatedText = NSMutableAttributedString(attributedString: originalText) updatedText.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.green, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: updatedText.length)) let paragraph = NSTextParagraph(attributedString: updatedText) // Verify that the text still contains NSTextList if let paragraphStyle = paragraph.attributedString.attribute(.paragraphStyle, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? NSParagraphStyle { assert(!paragraphStyle.textLists.isEmpty) } else { assertionFailure("Paragraph has lost its text lists") } return paragraph }

Background or Foreground
Hi Team! Has anyone found a reliable way to detect CarPlay connection without the app needing to be in the foreground? I’m exploring a concept where, for example, as someone nears home while driving, a prompt appears on the CarPlay screen asking “Would you like to turn on the lights / open garage?” triggered by proximity and CarPlay connection. Would be cool to have it work automatically, but knowing you're in the car is kind of important. From what I can see, apps can’t reliably detect CarPlay connection unless they’re actively open on the CarPlay screen. Most background detection methods (like external screen connect notifications) appear deprecated. That is, unless you're specifically approved as a "messaging" or "navigation" app that appear to get special privilages to send alerts from the background. If I send an alert (or poll Carplay periodically) it just gives silent/dead response. Is there any approach, framework, entitlement, or UI pattern that could allow a passive trigger or background detection while driving with CarPlay connected? I can't see any way to bring an app to the foreground either. Not looking to abuse any rules... just want to understand if anyone’s found a clean, approved workaround. Thanks in advance!

Best Way to Implement Collapsible Sections on watchOS 10+?
Hi all, I’m trying to implement a collapsible section in a List on watchOS (watchOS 10+). The goal is to have a disclosure chevron that toggles a section open/closed with animation, similar to DisclosureGroup on iOS. Unfortunately, DisclosureGroup is not available on watchOS. 😢 On iOS, this works as expected using this Section init: Section("My Header", isExpanded: $isExpanded) { // content } That gives me a tappable header with a disclosure indicator and the animation built in, as expected. But on watchOS, this same init displays the header, but it’s not tappable, and no disclosure triangle appears. I’ve found that to get it working on watchOS, I need to use the other initializer: Section(isExpanded: $isExpanded) { // content } header: { Button(action: { isExpanded.toggle() }) { HStack { Title("My Header") Spacer() Image(systemName: isExpanded ? "chevron.down" : "chevron.right") } } That works, but feels like a workaround. Is this the intended approach for watchOS, or am I missing a more native way to do this? Any best practices or alternative recommendations appreciated. Thanks!

UISplitViewController changes behavior of `viewControllers` property on iOS 26
I am attempting to start my application on iOS 26 with Xcode 26. It uses an UISplitViewController that is instantiated through a Storyboard. It uses the "Unspecified" style, which is a holdover from a previous version of iOS. I'm not sure if this is a bug in iOS, or if I am supposed to change it now. The viewControllers property only has the primary view controller on iOS, although it has the primary and detail view controllers on iPadOS. When I start the application on iOS 18.5, it has both primary and detail controllers on both platforms.

visionOS NavigationSplitView - Refreshable ProgressView Disappears
Description I've encountered an issue with NavigationSplitView on visionOS when using a refreshable ScrollView or List in the detail view. The Problem: When implementing pull-to-refresh in the detail view of a NavigationSplitView, the ProgressView disappears and generates this warning: Trying to convert coordinates between views that are in different UIWindows, which isn't supported. Use convertPoint:fromCoordinateSpace: instead. I discovered that if the detail view includes a .navigationTitle(), the ProgressView remains visible and works correctly! Below is a minimal reproducible example showing this behavior. When you run this code, you'll notice: The sidebar refreshable works fine The detail refreshable works only when .navigationTitle("Something") is present Remove the navigationTitle and the detail view's refresh indicator disappears minimal Demo import SwiftUI struct MinimalRefreshableDemo: View { @State private var items = ["Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"] @State private var detailItems = ["Detail 1", "Detail 2", "Detail 3"] @State private var selectedItem: String? = "Item 1" var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(items, id: \.self, selection: $selectedItem) { item in Text(item) } .refreshable { items = ["Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"] } .navigationTitle("Chat") } detail: { List { ForEach(detailItems, id: \.self) { item in Text(item) .frame(height: 100) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) } } .refreshable { detailItems = ["Detail 1", "Detail 2", "Detail 3"] } .navigationTitle("Something") } } } #Preview { MinimalRefreshableDemo() } Is this expected behavior? Has anyone else encountered this issue or found a solution that doesn't require adding a navigation title?

Error querying optional Codable with SwiftData
I'm building a SwiftUI app using SwiftData. In my app I have a Customer model with an optional codable structure Contact. Below is a simplified version of my model: @Model class Customer { var name: String = "" var contact: Contact? init(name: String, contact: Contact? = nil) { self.name = name self.contact = contact } struct Contact: Codable, Equatable { var phone: String var email: String var allowSMS: Bool } } I'm trying to query all the Customers that have a contact with @Query. For example: @Query(filter: #Predicate<Customer> { customer in customer.contact != nil }) var customers: [Customer] However no matter how I set the predicate I always get an error: BugDemo crashed due to an uncaught exception NSInvalidArgumentException. Reason: keypath contact not found in entity Customer. How can I fix this so that I'm able to filter by contact not nil in my Model?

FamilyActivityTitleView Label has wrong text color when app is using different than system theme
Hello, In a new app I am working on I noticed the FamilyActivityTitleView that displays "ApplicationToken" has wrong (black) color when phone is set to light mode but app is using dark mode via override. We display user's selected apps and the labels are rendered correctly at first, but then when user updates selection with FamilyActivityPicker, then those newly added apps are rendered with black titles. The problem goes away when I close the screen and open it again. It also doesn't happen when phone is set to dark theme. I am currently noticing the issue on iOS 18.4.1. I have tried various workarounds like forcing white text in the custom label style, forcing re-render with custom .id value but nothing helped. Is there any way how to fix this?

Is applicationDidFinishLaunching: guaranteed to be called before INIntent delegate methods when app is launched via a Shortcut?
I have a question about the app lifecycle when my app is launched via a Shortcut. I'm adding a INIntent to a Mac app. So my app delegate implements: - (nullable id)application:(NSApplication *)application handlerForIntent:(INIntent *)intent Then my custom intent handler implements the two protocol methods -confirmIntentNameHere:completion: and -handleIntentNameHere:completion: During my testing -applicationDidFinishLaunching: is called before the intent methods, so I can forward methods to my main window controller to perform the shortcut actions, since it's already ready. ....But if this is not always the case, I can still perform them but I'd have to move the code out of the window controller to perform the action "headless" if invoked before my app has built its UI. Just wondering if this is something I should be prepared for. Thanks in advance.

macOS Sequoia/Xcode 16.2 - Catalyst App Missing Tab Bar
My Objective-C Catalyst app when built with Xcode 16.x/iOS 18 does not have a visible Tab Bar when run on Sequoia. App starts up in first tab, but there is no way to access other tabs. The same app when run on macOS Sonoma (or macOS Catalina) has a normal Tab Bar. The app has an initial View UITabBarController with 3 tabs. The main tab is a UiSplitViewController. Minimum macOS deployment 10.5. If app is built on Sonoma with Xcode 15.x/iOS 17 the Tab Bar is normal on macOS Sonoma, Sequoia, and Catalina. I've tried without success: if (@available(macCatalyst 18.0, *)) { self.tabBarController.tabBarHidden = false; } else { // Fallback on earlier versions } I wonder if this console log message has anything to do with the problem: CLIENT OF UIKIT REQUIRES UPDATE: This process does not adopt UIScene lifecycle. This will become an assert in a future version.

Glitch on buttons in all types of OS of Apple ecosystem
as a beta tester I am trying to explore the OS on multiple platforms like iO, iPadOS, MacOS, WatchOS. While on trying to use beta 1 have few issues and reported to Apple with analytics as I do for better improvements. But, in beta 2 there is an issue of glitches on UI. This also tried to report. But, while am trying record screen I can not see in that video after the screen record. But, in reality I can see that glitch with eyes. as everyone know without evidence we can not report the same with tickets properly and they also can not resolve the issues. It’s affecting on all types of OS platforms of Apple buttons and search positions etc. one more thing I absorbed is while am trying use overlay player and browse the safari or any apple developer apps which are full screen the devices are freezing and not responding and after hard restart those are starting after 10mins. As per my knowledge. Those are going through the memory overflow issue.

iOS 26: TextEditor and Text Attachments
Does the new TextEditor in iOS 26, which supports rich text / AttributedString, also support the ability to add text attachments or tokens? For example, in Xcode, we can type <#foo#> to create an inline text placeholder/token which can be interacted with in a different way than standard text.

CPImmersiveScene is surprisingly a UIWindowScene. Intentional?
Looking at the superclass of CPImmersiveScene is surprisingly is a UIWindowScene. Is this intentional? Should I treat it as a window scene, and provide an UIWindow for it? Or is it only an implementation detail for managing the internal CPSceneLayerEventWindow and UITextEffectsWindow?

New Design - impact to color use in existing app SwiftUI View
I’ve noticed with the new design language, SwiftUI views appear to not use color as much. Example, color modifiers for List View items like carets. Is this intended and can developers introduce color back into SwiftUI view elements, if desired, like in iOS/iPadOS 18? Specifically, accent color not been used in List disclosure outline carets.

Error querying optional Codable with SwiftData
I'm building a SwiftUI app using SwiftData. In my app I have a Customer model with an optional codable structure Contact. Below is a simplified version of my model: @Model class Customer { var name: String = "" var contact: Contact? init(name: String, contact: Contact? = nil) { self.name = name self.contact = contact } struct Contact: Codable, Equatable { var phone: String var email: String var allowSMS: Bool } } I'm trying to query all the Customers that have a contact with @Query. For example: @Query(filter: #Predicate<Customer> { customer in customer.contact != nil }) var customers: [Customer] However no matter how I set the predicate I always get an error: BugDemo crashed due to an uncaught exception NSInvalidArgumentException. Reason: keypath contact not found in entity Customer. How can I fix this so that I'm able to filter by contact not nil in my Model?

FamilyActivityTitleView Label has wrong text color when app is using different than system theme
Hello, In a new app I am working on I noticed the FamilyActivityTitleView that displays "ApplicationToken" has wrong (black) color when phone is set to light mode but app is using dark mode via override. We display user's selected apps and the labels are rendered correctly at first, but then when user updates selection with FamilyActivityPicker, then those newly added apps are rendered with black titles. The problem goes away when I close the screen and open it again. It also doesn't happen when phone is set to dark theme. I am currently noticing the issue on iOS 18.4.1. I have tried various workarounds like forcing white text in the custom label style, forcing re-render with custom .id value but nothing helped. Is there any way how to fix this?

Is applicationDidFinishLaunching: guaranteed to be called before INIntent delegate methods when app is launched via a Shortcut?
I have a question about the app lifecycle when my app is launched via a Shortcut. I'm adding a INIntent to a Mac app. So my app delegate implements: - (nullable id)application:(NSApplication *)application handlerForIntent:(INIntent *)intent Then my custom intent handler implements the two protocol methods -confirmIntentNameHere:completion: and -handleIntentNameHere:completion: During my testing -applicationDidFinishLaunching: is called before the intent methods, so I can forward methods to my main window controller to perform the shortcut actions, since it's already ready. ....But if this is not always the case, I can still perform them but I'd have to move the code out of the window controller to perform the action "headless" if invoked before my app has built its UI. Just wondering if this is something I should be prepared for. Thanks in advance.

macOS Sequoia/Xcode 16.2 - Catalyst App Missing Tab Bar
My Objective-C Catalyst app when built with Xcode 16.x/iOS 18 does not have a visible Tab Bar when run on Sequoia. App starts up in first tab, but there is no way to access other tabs. The same app when run on macOS Sonoma (or macOS Catalina) has a normal Tab Bar. The app has an initial View UITabBarController with 3 tabs. The main tab is a UiSplitViewController. Minimum macOS deployment 10.5. If app is built on Sonoma with Xcode 15.x/iOS 17 the Tab Bar is normal on macOS Sonoma, Sequoia, and Catalina. I've tried without success: if (@available(macCatalyst 18.0, *)) { self.tabBarController.tabBarHidden = false; } else { // Fallback on earlier versions } I wonder if this console log message has anything to do with the problem: CLIENT OF UIKIT REQUIRES UPDATE: This process does not adopt UIScene lifecycle. This will become an assert in a future version.

Glitch on buttons in all types of OS of Apple ecosystem
as a beta tester I am trying to explore the OS on multiple platforms like iO, iPadOS, MacOS, WatchOS. While on trying to use beta 1 have few issues and reported to Apple with analytics as I do for better improvements. But, in beta 2 there is an issue of glitches on UI. This also tried to report. But, while am trying record screen I can not see in that video after the screen record. But, in reality I can see that glitch with eyes. as everyone know without evidence we can not report the same with tickets properly and they also can not resolve the issues. It’s affecting on all types of OS platforms of Apple buttons and search positions etc. one more thing I absorbed is while am trying use overlay player and browse the safari or any apple developer apps which are full screen the devices are freezing and not responding and after hard restart those are starting after 10mins. As per my knowledge. Those are going through the memory overflow issue.

Highlight the model not with the eyes, but by clicking a button
Hello, we have a requirement where clicking a button will highlight the model, similar to the effect seen by the eyes. However, the eyes do not see it and it is achieved by clicking a button. What should we do? Thank you for your reply
