Apparently, settings do not show anymore the apps settings in iOS 18.2. I tested on simulators (Xcode 16.2) both on iOS 18.1 and iOS 18.2 and got very different results: In iOS 18.1 simulator, I see the settings of a lot of apps. In iOS 18.2 simulator, not a single app setting. That is a really serious issue in simulator for development (I filed a bug report FB16175635), but would be really critical on device as it would make it impossible to adjust setting of many apps. Unless I missed something (meta setting ?) in iOS 18.2 ? I have not upgraded to 18.2 notably for this reason. So I would appreciate if someone who has upgraded could make the test and report ? select Settings on Home page scroll to Apps category tap here to access the list Does the list show anything ? Thanks for your help.

Not a question, but a surprise. Did I miss something, but apparently there has been no new beta release (16.3) since Release of 16.2 on Dec 11. 2 months without betas is really unusual (in fact, it never happened and usually, next beta n+1 is even released before the final release of version n). So does that mean 16.3 will be a major update ? Wait and see.

I get a crash in Apple Watch simulator (Series 9 45mm 18.0) as soon as the app launch if I type anything on external keyboard (just hitting command key for instance to capture a screenshot). Same crash on series 7 (45mm, OS 18.1) But app works normally when I use mouse to interact with the app on simulator. App does not crash on real device (Watch 4 OS 10.4.1). Nor does it crash on Series 6 simulator (44 mm OS 17.4). Here are the log I could collect (apparently, they contain sensitive language !!! so I attach as a file.: Attached logs

In this setup, label do not show properly because of the textColor. Labels are defined in IB, in the following hierarchy: ViewController View Label 1 scrollView View Button Label 2 Buttons show properly, but labels, even though defined with default label color appear as if their alpha was 0.2. It is even worse in dark mode: I have checked the settings for the label and did not find anything anormal: I have tried to change label color to system.gray 2, to no avail. If I change to red, does not show in red in IB. Problem appears for both Label 1 (at the top level in the view) and Label 2

I have an alertController that is presented as popover on iPad let alertController = UIAlertController(title: alertTitle, message: alertMessage, preferredStyle: alertStyle) if let ppc = alertController.popoverPresentationController { // … } Is it possible to change the message font color (which is really very light on iPad) ? It is OK on iPhone with the same alert (not popover): text is much more readable:

When picking a photo in the gallery, whatever the orientation of the original image, size is always as landscape if let image = info[convertFromUIImagePickerControllerInfoKey(UIImagePickerController.InfoKey.editedImage)] as? UIImage { print("picked original", image.size) For a portrait photo: picked original (1122.0, 932.0) For a landscape: picked original (1124.0, 844.0) What am I missing ?

I create a notification with an image attachment: let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.delegate = self let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() // some more stuff… let paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains( FileManager.SearchPathDirectory.documentDirectory, FileManager.SearchPathDomainMask.userDomainMask, true) let documentsDirectory = paths[0] as NSString let fileExtPNG = "#" + "\(imageName)" + " photo.png" let fileNamePNG = documentsDirectory.appendingPathComponent(fileExtPNG) as String url = URL(fileURLWithPath: fileNamePNG) let attachment = try UNNotificationAttachment(identifier: "Image", url: url, options: nil) content.attachments = [attachment] I then add the request: let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier:requestIdentifier, content: content, trigger: nil) center.removePendingNotificationRequests(withIdentifiers: [requestIdentifier]) center.add(request) {(error) in } Problem: when I later test (once notification has been registered), the file do not exist anymore at the url. I've commented out the add request to confirm. I have a work around, by creating a temporary copy of the file at the URL and pass it in the attachment. Then, everything works fine and the copy is deleted. But that's a bit bizarre. What am I missing here ?

I feel a bit dumb now. I once succeeded to change the language of an app on Watch simulator. So it is possible. And I'm not able to repeat (fool of me I did not took note of how I did it). I just remember it was simply through some language settings selection, may be rebooting the Mac, but not by changing anything in code. Does someone know how to do ?

I have an @objC used for notification. kTag is an Int constant, fieldBeingEdited is an Int variable. The following code fails at compilation with error: Command CompileSwift failed with a nonzero exit code if I capture self (I edited code, to have minimal case) @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { case kTag : break default : break } } } If I explicitly use self, it compiles, even with self captured: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } This compiles as well: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { () -> Void in switch self.fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } Is it a compiler bug or am I missing something ?

I have created a custom class: class TarifsHeaderFooterView: UITableViewHeaderFooterView { …} With its init: override init(reuseIdentifier: String?) { super.init(reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier) configureContents() } I register the custom header view in viewDidLoad of the class using the tableView. Table delegate and data source are defined in storyboard. tarifsTableView.register(TarifsHeaderFooterView.self, forHeaderFooterViewReuseIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) And call it: func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? { let view = tableView.dequeueReusableHeaderFooterView(withIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) as! TarifsHeaderFooterView That works on iPhone (simulators and devices). But it crashes on any iPad simulator, as tableView.dequeueReusableHeaderFooterView(withIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) is found nil. What difference between iPhone and iPad do I miss that explains this crash ? PS: sorry for the messy message. It looks like the new "feature" of the forum to put a Copy code button on the code parts, causes the code sections to be put at the very end of the post, not at the place they should be.

I tried to post a reply to a thread. It seems to be posted, but does not appear in the thread once sent…

Is it only me (or a localisation issue in french) or is there a bug in the submission form (buttons titles): But acceptance (dark blue button) works as intended.

Just testing an existing app with Xcode 26. I notice that content of UIBarButtonItem (either text or image) disappears when tapped (and reappear on release). Those are custom, bordered buttons. Attribute inspector: Buttons in Xcode: When selected in Xcode, we see a rectangle inside the rounder rect of iOS 26 In simulator: When tapped in simulator: I have edited code from backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: .normal) to backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: [.normal, .focused, .selected, .highlighted]) to no avail. What am I missing ?

I sometimes use Xcode 14.2. Recently, I have an issue with simulators: on some SwiftUI project, the simulator list is empty. I created a new project.

When looking ay space used by system, I found that AssetsV2 (in System/Library) account for 270 GB. In this folder, 3 account for 260 GB and are apparently related to Xcode simulators: Content is a bit cryptic. Does it relate to some specific apps I compiled and ran on simulator ? Or is it related to older versions of Xcode I keep on the Mac ? How to know what each forlder relates to ? Is it safe to remove ?
