Hi, I’m developing an iOS app that needs to list the nearby wifi list so User can tap and send via Tag. Is there any supported public iOS API or entitlement that allows listing nearby Wi-Fi networks in iOS app? Thank you.

During Apple Pay in-app provisioning (EV_ECC_v2), our iOS app successfully obtains the issuer provisioning certificates and generates cryptographic material. The flow fails when Apple posts the card blob to Apple’s broker (card creation step), returning HTTP 500 from .../broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards. Steps: Call issuerProvisioningCertificates?encryptionVersion=EV_ECC_v2 → 200 OK; returns ECC leaf + Apple Root CA chain; nonce=2a831be4. 2. Build {encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey} 3. POST /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards Expected: 200 OK on /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards, or 5xx with a descriptive error if payload/cryptography is invalid. Observed: 500 Internal Server Error from Apple broker on /cards (labeled “eligibility” in PassKit logs), causing a terminal failure in Wallet UI.

Overview In iOS 26, a List embedded in a NavigationStack inside a TabView exhibits a visual glitch when switching tabs. When the list is scrolled such that some rows are partially obscured by the navigation bar, the system correctly applies a fade/opacity effect to those rows. However, if the user switches to another tab while rows are in this partially obscured (faded) state, those rows briefly flash at full opacity during the tab transition before disappearing. This flash is visually distracting and appears to be inconsistent with the intended scroll-edge opacity behavior. The issue occurs only for rows partially obscured by the navigation bar. Rows partially obscured by the tab bar do not exhibit this flashing behavior. Steps to Reproduce: Run the attached minimal reproduction on iOS 26. Open the first tab. Scroll the list so that some rows are partially hidden behind the navigation bar (showing the native faded appearance). While rows are in this partially faded state, switch to the second tab. Observe that the faded rows briefly render fully opaque during the tab switch. Expected Behavior: Rows that are partially obscured by the navigation bar should maintain consistent opacity behavior during tab transitions, without flashing to full opacity. import SwiftUI @main struct NavBarReproApp: App { /// Minimal repro for iOS 26: /// - TabView with two tabs /// - First tab: NavigationStack + List /// - Scroll so some rows are partially behind the nav bar (faded) /// - Switch tabs: those partially-faded rows briefly flash fully opaque. Partially faded rows under the tab bar do not flash private let items = Array(0..<200).map { "Row \($0)" } var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { TabView { NavigationStack { List { ForEach(items, id: \.self) { item in Text(item) } } .navigationTitle("One") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } .tabItem { Label("One", systemImage: "1.circle") } NavigationStack { Text("Second tab") .navigationTitle("Two") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) } .tabItem { Label("Two", systemImage: "2.circle") } } } } }

Our project using UITabBarController and set a custom tabbar using below code: let customTabBar = CustomTabBar(with: dataSource) setValue(customTabBar, forKey: "tabBar") But when using Xcode 26 build app in iOS 26, the tabbar does not show: above code works well in iOS 18: below is the demo code: AppDelegate.swift: import UIKit @main class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { let window: UIWindow = UIWindow() func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool { window.rootViewController = TabBarViewController() window.makeKeyAndVisible() return true } } CustomTabBar.swift: import UIKit class CustomTabBar: UITabBar { class TabBarModel { let title: String let icon: UIImage?

How are we going to solve this problem? Thank you.

On iOS 26.01 & 26.2, the system keyboard shows uneven horizontal padding: Leftmost key column touches the screen edge Right side has visible padding This behavior is reproducible: In existing apps In a brand-new demo app In both UIKit and SwiftUI Xcode: 26.0.1 & 26.2 iOS: 26.0.1 & 26.2 Simulator Devices tested: iPhone 15 / iPhone 15 Pro Keyboard types: .numberPad, .decimalPad Frameworks: UIKit, SwiftUI

At which point in the image processing pipeline does iOS apply the white balance gains which can be set via AVCaptureDevice.setWhiteBalanceModeLocked(with:completionHandler:)? Are those gains applied in the analog part of the camera pipeline, before the pixel voltage gets converted via the ADC to digital values? Or does the camera first convert the pixel voltages to digital values and then the gains are applied to the digital values? Is this consistent across devices or can the behavior vary from device to device?

Hi Apple engineers! We are making an iOS browser and are planing to deliver a feature that allows enterprise customers to use a MAM key to set a PAC file for proxy. It's designed to support unmanaged device so the MDM based solutions like 'Global HTTP Proxy MDM payload' or 'Per-App VPN' simply don't work. After doing some research we found that with WKWebView, the only framework allowed on iOS for web browsing, there's no API for programmatically setting proxy. The closes API is the WKURLSchemeHandler, but it's for data management not network request interception, in other word it can not be used to handle HTTP/HTTPS request well. When we go from the web-view level to the app level, it seems there's no API to let an app set proxy for itself at an app-level, the closest API is Per-App VPN but as mentioned above, Per-App VPN is only available for managed device so we can't use that as well. Eventually we go to the system level, and try to use Network Extension, but there's still obstacles. It seems Network Extension doesn't directly provide a way to write system proxy. In order to archive that, we may have to use Packet Tunnel Provider in destination IP mode and create a local VPN server to loop back the network traffic and do the proxy stuff in that server. In other word, the custom VPN protocol is 'forward directly without encryption'. This approach looks viable as we see some of the network analysis tools use this approach, but still I'd like to ask is this against App Store Review Guidelines? If the above approach with Network Extension is not against App Store Review Guidelines, I have a further question that, what is the NEProxySettings of NETunnelNetworkSettings for? Is it the proxy which proxies the VPN traffic (in order to hide source IP from VPN provider) or it is the proxy to use after network traffic goes into the virtual private network? If none of the above is considered recommended, what is the recommended way to programmatically set proxy on WKWebView on an unmanaged device (regardless of where the proxy runs, web-view/app/system)?

When you use .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "placeholder", in: placehoder)) for navigation animation, going back using the swipe gesture is still very buggy on IOS26. I know it has been mentioned in other places like here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/796805?answerId=856846022#856846022 but nothing seems to have been done to fix this issue. Here is a video showing the bug comparing when the back button is used vs swipe to go back: https://imgur.com/a/JgEusRH I wish there was a way to at least disable the swipe back gesture until this bug is fixed.

FB21772424 On any iPhone or iPad running 26.3 beta 3 with UIFileSharingEnabled enabled via Xcode, a file cannot be manually copied to/from macOS or manually deleted from Finder but 26.3 beta 2 works fine running on any iPhone or iPad. The version of macOS is irrelevant as both macOS 26.2.1 and macOS 26.3 beta 3 are unable to affect file changes via macOS Finder on iPhone or iPad running 26.3 beta 3 but can affect file changes via macOS Finder on iPhone or iPad running 26.2.1 Thank you.

Starting with iOS 26.2, when Safari tabs are set to Bottom or Compact view, some pages are not rendering properly. The error does not occur in Top view. For some pages, scrolling causes rendering to be very slow, causing the user to experience page breaks and missing parts. If the user waits a few seconds, the missing parts of the page will appear, but the issue will reoccur when scrolling further. We have tested this on all available iOS devices and the issue occurs on all iPhones running iOS 26.2. The issue does not occur on iOS 26.1, and we have not experienced it on devices running iOS 18. The issue can be reproduced on the following pages with an iPhone running iOS 26.2: https://fotosakademia.hu/products/course/fotografia-kozephaladoknak-haladoknak https://oktatas.kurzusguru.hu/products/course/az-online-kurzuskeszites-alapjai

When using iOS 26.2 (23C55) Safari, the following can occur. The current tab (A) opens a new tab (B) via window.open(url, target, windowFeatures). The user clicks the "back" button to close tab B, and returns to tab A. Tab A attempts to open tab B again at a later point, using the same "target" as before, and fails (no window object is returned by window.open). This bug only occurs when the target is the same as the previously closed tab (which was closed via the back button). If a new target is specified, the new tab opens as expected. This bug is also limited to the back button. If the user manually closes tab B, then it can be re-opened by tab A using window.open using the same target as before.

I've suddenly started seeing hundreds of the same block of four error messages (see attached image) when running my app on my iOS device through Xcode. I've tried Cleaning the Build folder, but I keep seeing these messages in the console but can't find anything about them. Phone is running iOS 26.1. Xcode is at 16.4. Mac is on Sequoia 15.5. The app is primarily a MapKit SwiftUI based application.

Hello everyone, I’m a developer working for a client company, and I’m trying to publish an iOS app from their Apple Developer account. The app is 100% original and fully developed by me and my team (no templates, no third-party source code reuse, no republished app). During development, I previously uploaded internal test builds of the same project to my personal Apple Developer account for testing purposes, using a different Bundle ID. Now that we are ready to release, we submitted the app from the client's account, and the submission appears to be blocked/rejected due to similarity/duplicate detection (Design Spam: 4.3.0). My questions: What is the recommended Apple process in this situation? Is App Transfer required/expected even if the previous builds on my account were only for internal testing and never publicly released? If App Transfer is not applicable, what is the best way to document that this is the same original app, now being published under the client’s account (authorization/ownership)? Does removing/deleting the test app/builds from my personal account help at all, or is it better to leave history as-is and only provide an explanation to App Review? Any guidance from developers who faced a similar issue (or from Apple engineers) would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I'm trying to figure out what is true here - if I am not in the correct forum please direct me :-) A. It is not possible to test a QR code scan that contains a deeplink into my iOS app from an XCoode build test run. In other words, The build must be published to Test Flight for the iOS's QR code scan sub-system to be able to process the deeplink into my app? If I am wrong about this, it sure would help with testing to be able to test directly from the local XCode build test. If so, can someone point me in the direction of what I would need to do for that? Thanks for your input either way!

Hi, I am a UI designer and a total newbie with coding, so I have been using AI in Xcode to do all my coding for my personal project. Everything was working fine until this morning, when I tried to run my app in the simulator (I didn't even change any code from the last time I ran the simulator) and now the simulator is crashing and freezing and I have been trying to fix it with the AI recommendations, but it seems way too complicated for me to handle even with AI's help. I feel like I need to talk to an expert and guide me out of this hole. Please help. Thank you!

We're seeing a sharp uptick in BaseBoard/FrontBoardServices crashes since we migrated from UIApplicationDelegate to UIWindowSceneDelegate. Having exhausted everything on my end short of reverse engineering BaseBoard or making changes without being able to know if they work, I need help. I think all I need to get unstuck is an answer to these questions, if possible: What does -[BSSettings initWithSettings:] enumerate over? If I know what's being enumerated, I'll know what to look for in our app. What triggers FrontBoardServices to do this update? If I can reproduce the crash--or at least better understand when it may happen--I will be better able to fix it Here's two similar stack traces: App_(iOS)-crashreport-07-30-2025_1040-0600-redacted.crash App_(iOS)-crashreport-07-30-2025_1045-0600-redacted.crash Since these are private trameworks, there is no documentation or information on their behavior that I can find. There are other forum posts regarding this crash, on here and on other sites. However, I did not find any that shed any insight on the cause or conditions of the crash. Additionally, this is on iPhone, not macOS, and not iPad. This post is different, because I'm asking specific questions that can be answered by someone with familiarity on how these internal frameworks work. I'm not asking for help debugging my application, though I'd gladly take any suggestions/tips! Here's the long version, in case anyone finds it useful: In our application, we have seen a sharp rise in crashes in BaseBoard and FrontBoardServices, which are internal iOS frameworks, since we migrated our app to use UIWindowSceneDelegate. We were using exclusively UIApplicationDelegate before. The stack traces haven't proven very useful yet, because we haven't been able to reproduce the crashes ourselves. Upon searching online, we have learned that Baseboard/Frontsoardservices are probably copying scene settings upon something in the scene changing. Based on our crash reports, we know that most of our users are on an iPhone, not an iPad or macOS, so we can rule out split screen or window resizing. Our app is locked to portrait as well, so we can also rule out orientation changes. And considering the stack trace is in the middle of an objc_retain_x2 call, which is itself inside of a collection enumeration, we are assuming that whatever is being enumerated probably was changed or deallocated during enumeration. Sometimes it's objc_retain_x2, and sometimes it's a release call. And sometimes it's a completely different stack trace, but still within BaseBoard/FrontBoardServices. I suspect these all share the same cause. Because it's thread 0 that crashed, we know that BaseBoard/FrontBoardServices were running on the main thread, which means that for this crash to occur, something might be changing on a background thread. This is what leads me to suspect a race condition. There are many places in our app where we accidentally update the UI from a background thread. We've fixed many of them, but I'm sure there are more. Our app is large. Because of this, I think background UI are the most likely cause. However, since I can't reproduce the crash, and because none of our stack traces clearly show UI updates happening on another thread at the same time, I am not certain. And here's the stack trace inline, in case the attachments expire or search engines can't read them: Thread 0 name: Thread 0 Crashed: objc_retain_x2 (libobjc.A.dylib) BSIntegerMapEnumerateWithBlock (BaseBoard) -[BSSettings initWithSettings:] (BaseBoard) -[BSKeyedSettings initWithSettings:] (BaseBoard) -[FBSSettings _settings:] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSSettings _settings] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSSettingsDiff applyToMutableSettings:] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSSettingsDiff settingsByApplyingToMutableCopyOfSettings:] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSSceneSettingsDiff settingsByApplyingToMutableCopyOfSettings:] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSScene updater:didUpdateSettings:withDiff:transitionContext:completion:] (FrontBoardServices) __94-[FBSWorkspaceScenesClient _queue_updateScene:withSettings:diff:transitionContext:completion:]_block_invoke_2 (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSWorkspace _calloutQueue_executeCalloutFromSource:withBlock:] (FrontBoardServices) __94-[FBSWorkspaceScenesClient _queue_updateScene:withSettings:diff:transitionContext:completion:]_block_invoke.cold.1 (FrontBoardServices) __94-[FBSWorkspaceScenesClient _queue_updateScene:withSettings:diff:transitionContext:completion:]_block_invoke (FrontBoardServices) _dispatch_client_callout (libdispatch.dylib) _dispatch_block_invoke_direct (libdispatch.dylib) __FBSSERIALQUEUE_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSMainRunLoopSerialQueue _targetQueue_performNextIfPossible] (FrontBoardServices) -[FBSMainRunLoopSerialQueue _performNextFromRunLoopSource] (FrontBoardServices) __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__ (CoreFoundation) __CFRunLoopDoSource0 (CoreFoundation) __CFRunLoopDoSources0 (CoreFoundation) __CFRunLoopRun (CoreFoundation) CFRunLoopRunSpecific (CoreFoundation) GSEventRunModal (GraphicsServices) -[UIApplication _run] (UIKitCore) UIApplicationMain (UIKitCore) (null) (UIKitCore) main (AppDelegate.swift:0) 0x1ab8cbf08 + 0

I would like to share an issue observed during app development. When changing Bluetooth settings from the system Settings app without using multitasking, the app does not terminate but instead logs the user out. However, when changing Bluetooth settings while using multitasking, the app terminates completely. In this context, I would like to understand: Whether there is any system behavior that causes the app to refresh or restart when Bluetooth settings are changed And why the app behavior differs in a multitasking environment, particularly in terms of app lifecycle handling Any insights into these behaviors would be greatly appreciated.

I have ios UI tests that are build with command xcodebuild -workspace ... -scheme ... -configuration ... -derivedDataPath ... -destination ... -testPlan ... build-for-testing Then I run them with xcodebuild -destination ... -resultBundlePath ... -parallel-testing-worker-count ... -xctestrun ... test-without-building I also have following settings in testplan "maximumTestRepetitions" : 3, "testRepetitionMode" : "retryOnFailure", With xcode 16.4 tests were retried on failure up to 3 times, but migrating to xcode 26.2 seems to change this behavior and tests are no longer retried. Is it expected behaviour and I should manually add params like -test-iterations 3 -retry-tests-on-failure into xcodebuild test-without-building command? Here is xcresult - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xHgiZnIK_lptDSUf-fCyEnT9zYubZlCf/view?usp=sharing And testrun file -https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aBi2sTjy8zFYtgYn1KA60T8gwD_OnBCF/view?usp=sharing

I have a custom UI to display date (for user birthday) and want if the user presses each part of the label , the date selection is displayed, the current issue is , when I try to reduce the DatePicker opacity or set the colorMultipli to clear color, it still clickable on the date area, while my object is a fullWidth object, how can I fix it? This is the code: VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 8) { Text("Birthday") .font(.SFProText.font(type: .medium, size: 13)) .foregroundStyle(Color(uiColor: .label)) HStack(alignment: .center) { Text(userProfileAccountInfoviewModel.birthday.getShortFormat(format: "dd MMM yyyy")) .font(.SFProText.font(type: .medium, size: 13)) .foregroundColor(Color(uiColor: .label)) .padding(.horizontal, 13) Spacer() } .frame(height: 44) .contentShape(Rectangle()) .overlay { HStack { DatePicker(selection: $userProfileAccountInfoviewModel.birthday, displayedComponents: .date) {} .labelsHidden() .colorMultiply(.clear) .background(Color.clear) .foregroundStyle(Color.baseBackgroundSecondary) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .contentShape(Rectangle()) // .opacity(0.011) Spacer() } } .background(Color.baseBackgroundSecondary) .clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 4)) }

Setup: I have a segment view with 3 segments, and the last on (at index 2) is disabled. Issue: When I drag the liquid glass handle of the segment view from what was previously selected to the disabled segment, the liquid glass handle freezes mid-air. Workaround: I can still interact with the handle and manually restore its position, or tap on any other segment to restore its position. Notes: I'm using UIKit, and no extra customizations are applied. class ViewController: UIViewController { @IBOutlet weak var segmentView: UISegmentedControl! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() segmentView.removeAllSegments() let segments = ["Option 1", "Option 2", "Option 3"] for (index, title) in segments.enumerated() { segmentView.insertSegment(withTitle: title, at: index, animated: false) } // Select the first one by default segmentView.selectedSegmentIndex = 0 // Disable the last segment segmentView.setEnabled(false, forSegmentAt: 2) } }
