Developer app on the Mac doesn't play videos in full screen

Hi,

Problem

  • When playing videos on the Developer app on the Mac, there is no full screen button for the video.
  • So it is not possible to play the video in full screen.

Note

  • I am not referring to the app going into full screen, the issue is with there is no option to play the video in full screen.

Environment

  • OS: macOS 26.2 (25C56)
  • Developer app: Version 10.8.3 (1083.3.1)

Feedback

Question

  • Are others also facing this issue?
  • Is there a workaround?

Suggestion

  • This seems to be recurring problem that seems get broken with app / OS releases.
  • Please write some UI tests to ensure the full screen button is present.
  • Would really appreciate if this gets fixed.

Hi there, confirm for

macOS 26.3 Beta (25D5112c)

that the Developer.app (1083.3.1) does now show the videos with fullscreen option.

FIXED.

thx and have fun

Same issue

Yes same issue here. Apple please fix this asap

It’s still not fixed

Has anyone tried this on the current macOS 26.3 beta? If not, please do. I checked on the state of newwbee’s [1] bug (FB21343934) and there’s evidence to suggest that the issue is resolved there.

Thanks @DTS Engineer Quinn,

I don't have a spare mac to update and try macOS 26.3 beta, would it be ok if I check once 26.3 is released? Thanks.
