Apparently, there is a bug in the ".confirmation Dialog" extension. Until they fix the issue use ".action Sheet" like the below code: .actionSheet(isPresented: $showDeletionConfirmation) { ActionSheet( title: Text("Sure?"), message: Text("Do you want to continue?"), buttons: [ .cancel(), .destructive(Text("Yes"), action: { print("Deleting...") item = nil }) ] ) }
