Since one of the last updates of XCode, there are two very annoying bugs in the simulator that just don't get fixed. What's going on Apple? You kill my productivity. There is a red bar reading "rdar" and some numeric string at the top. You can get rid of it by going to Settings -> Developers -> Zoom -> Larger Text (then change it back). Took a while to find that. I have a German laptop with a QWERTZ keyboard layout. Now when I type, it somehow sends keys from an US keyboard to the simulator. Since I don't have the labels, I don't know what the hell I'm typing. Very frustrating. Please fix this.

When I start a Simulator (iPhone 13 mini) with iOS 26 and activate "Use the Same Keyboard Language as macOS", it still sets the keyboard to US (my Mac keyboard is in German). This makes the Mac keyboard unusable. It looks like a bug, because it clearly ignores the settings. When I type “@”, I get “¬”. Restarting the simulator did nothing, changing the settings back and forth also. BTW: Why does every single update of XCode come with a bug nowadays? I always have to spend half a day after an update to fix a problem I didn't have before. Highly frustrating.
