I have made a demo app reproducing the issue I am facing with the iPad when using the DoubleColumnNavigationViewStyle My normal navigation path is: List1 -> Form1 -> Form2 -> Picker1 -> (change the Teacher) Somehow Form1s are injected and the path becomes: List1 -> Form1 -> (Form1, etc...) -> Form1 -> Form2 -> Picker1 -> (change the Teacher) I do not have NavigationLinks from From1 to Form1 anywhere in my code. A new Form1 is inserted just by changing a value of a Picker I believe this is a bug More moments are in the code ContentView.swift - https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/15890515-fe87-460b-9f1b-9947eaf2cfd0
