I am experiencing a UI issue after migrating my app from Xcode 16 to Xcode 26. In my implementation, I have a toolbar that contains multiple buttons along with a dropdown menu. The hierarchy for dropdown is as follows: **Toolbar → ToolbarItem → View → Menu → Picker ** Prior to Xcode 26, this setup worked smoothly in production builds. The dropdown (Menu + Picker) behaves as expected, and selecting a value triggers loading a dataset containing thousands of records on the screen. However, after upgrading to Xcode 26, I am observing an animation glitch when dismissing the dropdown after a selection is made. Specifically, the dropdown briefly shows a “capsule-like” animation artifact during dismissal, which persists for a few seconds. This visual issue is noticeable and negatively impacts the perceived performance and user experience of the app. This issue is occurring in an already released app built with Xcode 26. Questions: Is this a known issue or regression in Xcode 26 / SwiftUI Menu or Picker components? If yes, are there any known fixes or upcoming Xcode versions where this is resolved? If not, what would be the recommended approach to eliminate or minimize this animation glitch when dismissing the dropdown? Additional Context: The issue appears only after migration to Xcode 26. The dataset loaded after selection is large (thousands of records). The glitch specifically occurs during the dismissal animation of the Menu/Picker. Any guidance or workarounds would be greatly appreciated.

Is it mandatory for all developers to migrate to Xcode 26 starting from April 28, 2026? What happens if a developer submits or distributes a build created using Xcode 16 after April 28, 2026? Will it still be accepted or supported? Our app is distributed only via an internal company portal (not through the App Store). In this case, are we still required to build and distribute the app using Xcode 26 after April 28, 2026? If a hotfix is required before our next planned release (July 2026), how safe is it to use the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag as a temporary solution, assuming Xcode 26 becomes mandatory? Are there any risks or limitations associated with this approach? What are the potential issues if a team continues development on Xcode 16 while others have migrated to Xcode 26? For example, could there be compatibility, build, or integration challenges in such a mixed environment? If the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag is used as a temporary workaround, what would be the impact if Apple later removes support for this flag, especially with newer iOS versions (e.g., iOS 26+)? For users who already have the app installed with this flag enabled For users installing the app for the first time after such changes

Hi everyone, I want to avoid the iOS 26 Liquid Glass effect in my app’s UI. While researching, I found the following possible solution: Steps: Go to Info.plist Add the key: UIDesignRequiresCompatibility Type: Boolean Value: YES I have a few questions about this approach: According to the Apple Developer website, this seems to be a temporary solution. How long will this continue to work, and what would be the recommended long-term solution? Which iOS versions does this support (both older and upcoming versions)? If this method is not recommended, is there another way to disable or avoid the glass effect across the entire app without making major UI changes? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
