Liquid Glass clear variant
In this WWDC talk about liquid glass https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/219/ they mention that there are two variants of liquid glass, regular and clear. I don't see any way to try the clear variant using the .glassEffect() APIs, they only expose regular, is there some other way to try the clear variant?

Crashes launching app from Camera control button
I'm using the LockedCameraCaptureExtension to launch my Camera app from the camera button. Some of our users report our app crashing a few seconds after being launch from the camera button. The call stack is something inside BoardServices [BSServicesConfiguration activateXPCService] I'm not sure how to investigate or fix this, anyone else having the same issue? Basically in my LockedCameraCaptureExtension when it loads I just call openApplication on the LockedCameraCaptureSession to launch into my app. @main struct captureExtension: LockedCameraCaptureExtension { var body: some LockedCameraCaptureExtensionScene { LockedCameraCaptureUIScene { session in Button(action: { Task { await openCamera(session: session) } }, label: { Text("Open Camera") }) .buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle()) .task { await openCamera(session: session) } } } private func openCamera(session: LockedCameraCaptureSession) async { try? await session.openApplication(for: NSUserActivity(activityType: "com.mycompany.camera")) } }

White flash using manageSubscriptionsSheet in SwiftUI
In SwiftUI I am using the manageSubscriptionsSheet modifier to open the iOS subscription screen. When this is presented it immediately flashes a white view and then animated the subscription screen up from the bottom, it looks pretty bad. The view I am calling manageSubscriptionsSheet on is presented in a sheet, so maybe trying to present the subscriptions view as well is causing the visual glitch. Any way to not have this white flashing view when opening the subscription screen?

Add a value to the Photos Caption field
In the iOS Photos app there is a caption field the user can write to. How can you write to this value from Swift when creating a photo? I see apps that do this, but there doesn't seem to be any official way to do this using the Photo library through PHAssetCreationRequest or PHAssetResourceCreationOptions or setting EXIF values, I tried settings a bunch of values there including IPTC values but nothing appears in the caption field in the iOS photos app. There must be some way to do it since I see other apps setting that value somehow after capturing a photo.

How to hide the tick marks on a SwiftUI Slider in iOS26
In SwiftUI sliders now have tick marks by default on iOS26, how do you turn them off or hide them? This WWDC talk had some sample code on how to set the tick marks but it doesn't compile for me: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/323/ I don't see any available methods or initializers to turn them off.
