Hi! I found a UI bug in iOS 26.0 (23A5276f). When you swipe down from the top right to open Control Center and adjust brightness using the slider, everything looks normal. However, if you long-press the brightness slider, the brightness knob detaches from the base. The button becomes smaller while the frame remains the same, making the UI asymmetrical and misaligned. This happens consistently and is clearly a layout issue.

Hi all, Well Im about to publish an app for iOS and the process is almost done but I don't know how is it to publish the same for MacOS, I mean, I can generate the app file from my engine (Unity) and even run it, but from there what are the steps? do we need to pass this to Xcode too? if so please direct me to where its explained because I couldn't find it, thanks a lot for any help

Like I said in the title, it looks like MetalTools.framework is missing or corrupted. I think I saw that the symbolic link was broken. They look like aliases in the finder, but I can't find the original. This was a problem with Ventura (using the last compatible Xcode version) and Sequoia 15.2 (Xcode 16.2). I didn't use Xcode before that. Note that none of my apps need Metal API (I don't think). I only noticed it when Xcode gave an error regarding Metal. Sorry this is so long; I hope the Terminal info will help. I don't want to reinstall Sequoia and this has been a problem since at least Ventura.

Please expedite to Solve this bug , my Singpass is unable to launch in iOS 26. I believe this is more urgent than a new pride theme wallpaper 🏳️‍🌈

Hi, I’ve recently installed the iOS 26 DB, and I’m experiencing heating issues on my iPhone. Is there a fix to this? Also, is it a bug or a feature, that I can’t remove certain sections in the Photos app rather than rearranging them. Pls lemme know. Thanks.

Hi there, I intend to submit an app playground for the Swift Student Challenge this year. I am currently using the Swift Playgrounds app to develop a playground. Now I understand that when submitting I can choose the option of having my app playground to be tested on Swift Playgrounds on either iPadOS or macOS. But I would also like to know on which screen size is my app going to be tested. Let's say I want my app playground to run on macOS, now is there a way to also select the MacBook model, like 14-inch or 16-inch? This would give the participants a better idea of where the app playground will be tested.

I set iOS 26 to install overnight, put my iPhone 16 Pro on the MagSafe charger, watched it charge just fine, and went to sleep. When I woke up the iPhone showed the “plug into power” dead battery screen. I took it off MagSafe and put it back on. A half hour later the phone was warm but still wouldn’t power on, just showed the battery screen with a little red in it. I took it off MagSafe and plugged it into my iPad charging brick with USB cable to give it more power, still it did not turn on. I tried holding all the buttons to try to force a restart but didn’t work. For anyone else encountering this, do this to enter DFU mode and restore it. I had to do it a few times before I got the timing right. Plug into your Mac and open Finder (or apparently a PC with Apple Devices or iTunes) Press and quickly release volume up Press and quickly release volume down Press and hold right side button When the battery disappears and screen goes black, hold volume down and continue holding side button After a couple seconds release the side button and continue holding volume down A prompt to allow connecting to the iPhone should appear after a couple seconds, click Allow, and it’ll say the iPhone entered DFU mode - proceed to restore the firmware

Is anyone else having trouble posting to the forums? I can't get past form validation.

Hello, I’m facing an issue with geofencing events in my app. When the app is killed and not opened for 2–3 days, the geofencing event is not triggering when I re-enter the geofenced area. I’ve made sure that all necessary permissions (location, background refresh, etc.) are properly set in the app settings. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a solution or workaround to ensure that geofencing works as expected even after the app has been killed for several days? Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I paid for my developer account on the 13th of June 2024 (1 week ago). My ID was approved. However, I still don't have access to the account. When I go to check the status of it, it is asking me to pay again. I then tried to email the team, however only received useless, timewasting responses, such as "Please go to developer.apple.com/enroll to enroll for an apple dev account", which I already told them prompts me to pay again and verify my ID again. I then tried to call them, and they said they had to re-verify my ID and would call me back in 10 mins, but I never received a call back. I also couldn't call them again because it wouldn't let me request another call from them. I then emailed them, but still haven't received a response. The next day I tried to request another call from them, during their opening hours at Thursday 4pm AEST, (they are open Mon-Fri 9am-5pm AEST see https://developer.apple.com/support/worldwide-telephone-hours/) however it still says that "Phone support is currently unavailable". I tried to email them but now I am getting no responses at all. I tried to contact the apple support through the iMessage chat, however I was only put on call with a lady who was helpful, but couldn't even do anything as she was only generic support. She couldn't even schedule me a call or transfer me to the developer team, even though it was within their working and calling/support hours. I have tried to refund my developer account, but apparently that purchase is "illegible for a refund". This is the treatment I get from apple for paying $100 USD. An entire week of being left on blank. I don't know what to do. I paid 100 bucks for an account which I can't even use, and the support hasn't helped me for an entire week. My emails being left on blank, and I can't even call them. If anyone from apple or anyone that could help me sees this, please contact me ASAP at makrypodisc@ hotmail.com or reply to this thread. Thank you.

hi. I have a MacPro 2019, and I'm running Monterey at the moment. I have three screens. Two 4k screens, and a XDR in the center of them. My MacPro 2019 boots with the left screen showing the startup and login screen. I've previously had it boot to my XDR before the others. I'm not entirely sure why it moved to the left, but I need it back on the center screen. We used to just drag a happy mac icon from screens in the displays system preference. I don't see any method to change this startup and login screen. How do I choose the permanent bootup and startup screen (as my XDR!). Thanks. Dave

we’ve identified that our PDF rendering pipeline leverages the native CGPDFDocument APIs to convert PDF pages into images. However, in the latest release of iOS 18, the provided document fails to render even at the CGPDFDocument level. Our analysis suggests that the issue may stem from the embedded custom fonts not being correctly processed in this version of the iOS platform. This appears to be consistent with several other reports and discussions around font rendering problems introduced in iOS 18, particularly involving subset fonts. We’ve attached a collection of relevant community threads and references, including: Apple Developer Discussion: Subset Font Rendering Issue in iOS 18 Given that our implementation is tightly coupled with Apple’s native PDF rendering APIs, this issue presents a blocking limitation for us. With your permission, we would like to use this document as a sample case to formally report the issue through the appropriate Apple Developer forums and feedback channels.

Hi @DTS Engineer in tvOS 26.2 Beta is still this annoying Shadow Glitch… 😔 I have submitted an Bug-Report, but dont get an Answer… FB18719371 The Animation is not smooth and the Shadow is abruptly „jumping“… I don’t get any Response from the Apple Engineers. But this GUI Glitch makes the otherwise very high-quality tvOS GUI appear very unprofessional. Could you please help me? 🤔

I'm preparing my submission for the Swift Student Challenge, and I have a couple of questions regarding the development environment. Is it allowed to use Xcode to program my scene, or do I have to use Swift Playgrounds? Can I use iPadOS 18 for development? I noticed that Swift Playgrounds currently only supports up to iPadOS 17.5, but I would like to use RealityView, which is only available starting from iPadOS 18. I appreciate any clarification on this. Thanks in advance!

It's Thursday, March 27th 2025 and I'm living in the UK, I have completed my project and submitted it before February 23rd and got the confirmation email and on March 27th, it says results are out but even after I wait for a long time, I still get the same message: We’ve received your submission. We'll send you an email when results are posted. Even after I come back 16 hours into the day which is 4PM GMT, so I want to know where to see the results anywhere else or if it's just a delay.

We have observed an issue where upgrading an iPhone to iOS 18.4 causes installed apps to revert to significantly older versions. For example, if the App Store version is 1.0.284 and the user had 1.0.283 installed before the upgrade, after updating to iOS 18.4, the app version reverts to 1.0.208—which is nearly a year old. We suspect this may be related to iCloud backup restoration. Has Apple encountered similar cases, and is there a known resolution for this issue?

I'm concerned that the Apple Vision Pro is too costly for low-income developers to develop for. Any thoughts?
