I have a multiplatform app for Mac and iOS, for which I am implementing a share extension. This share extension has to share settings with the app itself on both platforms. I am currently trying to achieve this by adding all targets to the same App Group and using UserDefaults with the App Group as suiteName. The app consists of three targets: A multiplatform SwiftUI app, an iOS Share Extension, and a macOS Share Extension,. Settings get persisted correctly on Mac and on the iOS 26 simulator. However, on a real iOS 26 beta 3 device, the Share Extension is unable to load UserDefaults (loading anything with the App Group as a suite name returns nil). What could cause this behavior? The following log entries are generated from the Share Extension on the iOS device, but not on the iOS simulator: Couldn't read values in CFPrefsPlistSource<0x1030d3c80> (Domain: MY_APP_GROUP, User: kCFPreferencesAnyUser, ByHost: Yes, Container: (null), Contents Need Refresh: Yes): Using kCFPreferencesAnyUser with a container is only allowed for System Containers, detaching from cfprefsd 59638328 Plugin query method called (501) Invalidation handler invoked, clearing connection (501) personaAttributesForPersonaType for type:0 failed with error Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.mobile.usermanagerd.xpc was invalidated from this process."

I have multiple document based SwiftUI apps without any NavigationBar customization. Since upgrading to iOS 26 , when these apps launch, sometimes their navigation bar icons appear grey (as if only the button shadows were showing) and the document title is white, so it’s invisible. One of the apps has an Inspector: here, whenever the Inspector appears, the colors are correct. This behavior has been consistent since the first iOS 26 developer beta and can be reproduced on iOS 26.1 beta 23B5064e. So far I have only managed to reproduce this in light mode.
