As of right now Icon Composer does not support creating app icons for visionOS and tvOS. It appears that only system apps can provide glass icons for those platforms. How should developers handle this? In extreme cases, the flat icon on those platforms will look wildly different from their glass counterparts.
From what I have seen visionOS and tvOS also do not apply any automatic treatment like on iOS where legacy icons get a glass effect.
So, third party app icons are just going to look out of place for (hopefully just) a year on those platforms? What is the recommended approach here? You could obviously fake the effect, but I feel like that would be worse.

This app icon features multiple layers with the blend mode set to Screen. iOS fails to render these despite looking perfectly fine in Icon Composer.
This is unacceptable. How can a designer build an icon if they can't rely on it being displayed like the preview on a device?

Call Screening has serious issues right now leading to missing calls from genuine callers because the system does not acknowledge them with missed call notifications or badges in a lot of cases. I'm posting this in the hope of catching an engineer who can bring this to the attention of the teams working on this.

I ran the following tests with iOS 26.1 beta 3, but the issues have been occurring on iOS 26.0 as well.
I used an iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac for this.
The iPhone has Call Screening enabled with the option „Ask Reason for Calling“
The iPhone has call forwarding enabled to all devices.
Test 1: Active Focus
Turn on a focus like Do not Disturb on all devices.
Lock all devices.
Make a phone call to the iPhone with an unknown number.
Behavior:
iPhone: displays Call Screening UI on the Lock Screen, but it will not light up the screen. You don’t know Call Screening is happening unless you activate the display just in that moment on devices without Always On Display.
Watch: does nothing.
Mac: does nothing.
iPad: displays Call Screening UI on the Lock Screen, but it will not light up the screen. You don’t know Call Screening is happening unless you activate the display just in that moment.
In this test the caller does not answer any of the Call Screening questions and just hangs up. The result is that only the Mac displays a missed call notification. iPhone, iPad, and Watch do not acknowledge the missed call (no phone app icon badge, no notification, no badge inside the Phone app itself), you can only see the call inside the Calls list when manually looking for it.
Test 2: No Focus
Turn off any focus like Do not Disturb on all devices.
Lock all devices.
Make a phone call to the iPhone with an unknown number.
Behavior:
iPhone: displays Call Screening UI on the Lock Screen, but it will not light up the screen. You don’t know Call Screening is happening unless you activate the display just in that moment on devices without Always On Display.
Watch: does nothing.
Mac: displays Call Screening UI when unlocked.
iPad: displays Call Screening UI on the Lock Screen, but it will not light up the screen. You don’t know Call Screening is happening unless you activate the display just in that moment.
In this test the caller does not answer any of the Call Screening questions and just hangs up. The result is that only the Mac displays a missed call notification. iPhone, iPad, and Watch do not acknowledge the missed call (no phone app icon badge, no notification, no badge inside the Phone app itself), you can only see the call inside the Calls list when manually looking for it. The only improvement here is that the Mac now shows the Call Screening UI.
Test 3: Caller answers Call Screening questions
An active focus does not matter.
Lock all devices.
Make a phone call to the iPhone with an unknown number.
Once the caller answered the Call Screening questions, the following happens:
All devices ring like expected
When the caller hangs up or I don’t answer:
Mac: Shows Missed Call notification without details
iPhone: Shows Missed Call notification with transcript of Call Screening (also badges phone app icon)
iPad: does nothing.
Watch: Shows the mirrored iPhone notification.
Things to note:
When turning off call forwarding on iPhone to other Apple devices like iPad and Mac, the phone app icon is always badged for missed calls when Call Screening was active, but no notification is displayed regardless.
