My app controls the cursor movement in a text view on iPhone and iPads.
On screen touch, the IOS cursor position is out of sync with the app cursor position.
Is there a way to find out, on screen touch, where the ios cursor positition is and update the app cursor to the ios cursor position?
When they are out of sync, the user has to move the cursor to the startIndex and navigate from there. Frustating!
I have looked at many programming books, forums, and internet search with nothing to no avail.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. The app names are SummaGramPhonex and SummaGramIPAD11 and SummaGramIPAD13.
Thanks. Charlie

In our app we have a UICollectionView with Drag&Drop functionality enable and collection view is covering the entire screen. When we drag a collection view item to the edge of the screen it does not scroll the UICollectionView instead that our item turns into the app icon and scrolling blocked. It is happening only if Stage Manager is enabled in the device and if Stage Manager is disabled it is working fine.
This issue we are facing after iOS 18.6 release, before 18.6 it was working fine i.e, collection view was scrolling to next items when we dragging an item to edge of the screen, similar to the iOS calendar app when we drag an event to edge it starts scrolling the date.
And in iOS 26 if we drag an item to edge, Springboard is getting crashed.
Hi! I am very new to the apple ecosystem. I saw a lot of comments online about how Stage Manager enabled iPads have access to extending the screen to an external display, and that was what hyped me about this beta. Unfortunately, while i do have Stage Manager now, the display is still unwilling to be extended. Is that a feature that’s planned to be included in the OS? Or am i just out of luck? The ipad is one of the most capable devices i have so i was kind of hoping it would get the feature. It has an A11 chip.
When I go to update my iPad Pro 4th gen to iPadOS 26 beta3 and click the update now button, the screen to enter my passcode comes up but is blacken there is NO keypad. reboots do not fix this and waiting sure hasn't. Is anyone else having this issue and is there a fix?
Hello. I was working on a Unity game for iPhone, but Apple said that it is impossible to prohibit downloading to iPad. They tested it on iPad Air 5, and for some reason the game did not work correctly - nothing happened when launched, although everything was fine in the iPad Air 5 simulator and in the real iPhone. Please tell me what to do?

On macOS 26 I can see the dividers when I open my Help menu:
However, on iPadOS 26 the dividers don't appear:
I am simply using Divider() to separate my menu bar items in my CommandGroup.
iPadOS does support dividers as I can see them for the system generated Edit menu but for some reason it's not working here.
Does anyone know if I am doing something wrong with the iPadOS implementation?
I've added some menus to the new (mac-like) menu bar on the iPad App under iPadOS 26, which is working fine.
However if the main view controller covers the whole screen and shows a fullscreen Map (MKMapView), the menu bar has a dark gradient as a background, which makes it extremely difficult to see the menu.
I guess the iPadOS tries to put a semi-transparent layer between the view controller and the menu bar to make sure that the content of the view controller doesn't interfere with with the menubar and the menu is easy to read.
But when the view controller shows a map, the system seems to get the colors for this transparent layer wrong.
Is it possible to solve this, or is this still a bug of iPad OS 26?
Interestingly, when I create a screenshot of the screen, this dark gradient which makes the menu bar unreadably is not included in the screenshot. So in the screenshot the menu is easy to read. Only on the real device, the menu bar is almost unreadably
Hi,
Have done the update for IOS Beta 4 and after it was done the screen just had the background and no icons. Couldn't get to any of the icons. Tried to do a restore on the iPad from my Mac and it started the restore but then got the message that it errored out and gave me this:
Need help trying to get this fixed. Also tried a computer that wasn't in the beta and got the same error message. Tried to turn it off and then see if it would go back to the error before and it just stays in recovery mode. Please help. Thank you.
I disable 4 or 5 Finger Gestures on Settings.app > Multi-tasking and Gestures.
But in the third-party apps, 4-5 finger touches are sometimes immediately cancelled.
Especially, 4-5 finger swipe gesture.
I filed this issue to FB19226717.
I develop Piano instrument app. 4 or 5 finger touches are required for that kind of apps. Please fix this, Apple.
Hi everyone 👋
I’ve been using the Apple Pencil Pro with my iPad Pro M4 and absolutely love it — the squeeze gesture, rotation, and haptics are amazing for creative work. But I’ve run into a little roadblock…
Right now, only one Pencil Pro can be paired at a time. So while one is charging, you can’t use another as a backup without unpairing and re-pairing, which interrupts the workflow.
I’d really love to see one of two things:
The ability to use one Pencil while another charges
or
An official external charger (or support for third-party ones)
Personally, I’d happily buy both a second Pencil and a charger if this became possible. I’ve even chatted with other creatives who feel the same — it would make a huge difference for long projects or working on the go.
Just wanted to share this idea and see if anyone else here would like this too. Thanks for reading!
I have an issue where the leading UISwipeAction is offset by the size of the sidebar, but only when the sidebar is visible. Is there any known reason why this would happen?
Hello, I have been trying for some time to change the color of native UITabBar in UITabBarController through UITabBarAppearance, but nothing works and the text is still black in the Xcode Beta 3 on iPadOS 26 while it works correctly in the previous OS versions.
Here is the code:
let color = UIColor.white
let stackedAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance()
stackedAppearance.normal.iconColor = color
stackedAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [
.foregroundColor: color
]
stackedAppearance.selected.iconColor = color
stackedAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [
.foregroundColor: color
]
let inlineAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance()
inlineAppearance.normal.iconColor = color
inlineAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [
.foregroundColor: color
]
inlineAppearance.selected.iconColor = color
inlineAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [
.foregroundColor: color
]
let tabAppearance = UITabBarAppearance()
tabAppearance.compactInlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance
tabAppearance.inlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance
tabAppearance.stackedLayoutAppearance = stackedAppearance
UITabBar.appearance().standardAppearance = tabAppearance
UITabBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = tabAppearance
Our app includes the UIRequiresFullScreen plist key, but the iPadOS 26 betas seem to ignore this. The window handle is still displayed, and while the window aspect ratio seems to be constrained, you can still adjust it and arrange it alongside other apps. We do not want to support windowing or multi-tasking, and the WWDC sessions indicated there would be a way to opt out of the new windowing system. Has UIRequiresFullScreen been silently deprecated, or are we missing something in our implementation?
I'm trying to run Colab Enterprise notebook's from my iPad Mini, and continue getting the error message 'Unable to connect to the runtime'.
The references support page offers a list of potential issues. I've checked off browser issues (same situation on Chrome, Safari and Firefox), Permissions (works fine on Macbook with same credentials), and network blocking dev platforms (tried this on 3 different networks, plus it works on my macbook).
All signs point to a device issue, but Apple support isn't supporting this issue.
If anyone has any insight into this, I'd appreciate any info.
thx
I have more than five tabs in a TabView, and on some screens, I'm seeing a navigation bar with the title "More". I understand that this is the default behavior of TabView when there are more than five tabs—iOS automatically creates a "More" screen.
I've set navigationBarHidden = true throughout my app, but the navigation bar still appears on some screens within the "More" section. Is there another way to hide the moreNavigationController or completely remove the navigation bar from the "More" screen?
Hi community my name is Adam Robles. I have a question. I recently downloaded the beta on my iPad Pro 13 inch and I noticed where are the iPad wallpapers I only get one wallpaper, but where what happened to the wallpaper that was released with iPad last year
Hello,
I have a question regarding the ethernet-over-USB-C stack within iOS/iPadOS.
It seems that when manually assigning an IP on this interface within iOS, the IP is stored. Therefore, when disconnecting (the USB-C cable) and reconnecting to another device for a subsequent ethernet connection, the iOS device will always default to the previously assigned IP address (obviously, this isn't the case if the other end is a DHCP server).
So, within the iPhone's Ethernet-over-USB-C driver, I was curious if iOS just keeps the assignment based on the MAC of the local USB-C interface, or is stored information tied to some other identifier? Is there a way to override this behavior?
Thank you
