UITabBarItem.isEnabled property has no effect in iOS 26(Xcode 26 beta 4)

This thread has been locked by a moderator; it no longer accepts new replies.

The isEnabled property on UITabBarItem no longer disables tab bar items as expected in iOS 26. Setting tabBarItem.isEnabled = false on a view controller has no visual or functional effect - the tab remains interactive and doesn't show the disabled state.
