Hello,
Im new to Xcode, ive been taking some classes and watching YouTube videos as well as using AI. Im having an issue I cannot find a video on, and AI just keeps screwing up my layout and sizing.
Here is the issue, I have a Custom Made Image for my Sign In button, for my log in page on Xcode. The issue being that I can barely see the button and when I go to adjust the size the whole layout gets screwed up. My Logo Image (supposed to take up the top 50% of the screen) takes over the whole Botton of the screen and I loose my username and password Text threads and images. I guess my question is, is this an issue with the size of image ive uploaded or is this an issue with my code? I changed the size of the Image I created in Canva to 900pixles for the width and 300pixals for the height and that did absolutely nothing to my image in Xcode.
Below is the Button and Create Account section in my code that seems to be having issues. Ppppplease help me.
var body: some View {
NavigationStack(path: $navigationPath) {
ZStack {
// Background image
Image("Background1")
.resizable()
.scaledToFill()
.ignoresSafeArea()
.clipped()
// Main content
ScrollView {
VStack(spacing: 20) {
// Logo
Image("DynastyStatDropLogo")
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.padding(.top, -160)
.padding(.bottom, -30)
// Form elements
// Username field
ZStack {
Image("UsernameBar")
.resizable()
.aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill)
.padding()
TextField("UserName:", text: $textInput)
.padding(.horizontal, 75)
.background(Color.clear)
.foregroundColor(.red)
.focused($focus, equals: .username)
.submitLabel(.next)
.onSubmit {
focus = .password
}
}
.frame(height: 50)
.clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10))
.padding(.horizontal)
// Password field and Forgot Password link

}
}

Hi,
Does the iPad Playgrounds app act completely the same way as a MacBook Playground?
I am developing my app on a 2020 MacBook Air M1 using Swift Playgrounds. However, since the testing is going to be done on an iPad Swift Playgrounds, I was worried if my playground would work, since it relies heavily on the screen size etc.
My app runs completely perfect on MacBook Playrgounds, but doesn't work on the iPad simulator on Xcode.
I couldn't help noticing that the Maps and Find My apps make extensive use of "sheets stacked on top of each other" to represent its navigation hierarchy, with a "new content comes in from the bottom" orientation instead of a navigation stack with
"new content comes in from the right side" oriented transitions.
I'm interested in this topic because I have a similar navigation-hierarchy-over-a-map case in my app (with a custom map view though) and I'm torn back and forth between the approach of replicating the "stacked sheets" vs. putting a navigation stack in a sheet, esp. with the navstack approach being way more attainable with the iOS 26 glass design.
I couldn't find any guidance for this kind of UI in the Human Interface Guidelines; I'm leaning towards the navstack-approach for my app; but in terms of the behavior of the SwiftUI container views in this scenario it seems a little bit of an uphill path.
Any thoughts on what pattern should be preferred for presenting a deep navigational hierarchy on top of a map-like view?
Hi everyone,
I’m testing our SwiftUI app on both Xcode simulator and a real iPhone. On the simulator, everything looks clean and aligned. But when I run it on an actual iPhone (same build, iOS 18), the layout looks broken—fonts overlap, spacing is off, and elements are misaligned.
Both screenshots are from the exact same screen and time. First is simulator, second is iPhone.
Any idea why this difference happens? Is there something I should check in terms of rendering or layout settings?
Thanks in advance!
I noticed a discrepancy between the Material specifications for tvOS on the Developer page and the naming in the Design Resources (Sketch files). Which one should we consider authoritative?

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 am writing to express interest in engaging with Apple regarding a highly original and commercially relevant concept related to future iPhone innovation.
Given the confidential and proprietary nature of this idea, I am not in a position to share details through an open inquiry or standard feedback form.
I would welcome the opportunity to present this concept through an official and formal communication channel that ensures appropriate confidentiality and professional evaluation, should Apple have an established process for external innovation or partnership discussions.
Please advise if there is a suitable point of contact or procedure for initiating such a conversation in accordance with Apple’s policies.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to contact me though my email or phone

I've been playing around with iPad PRO M5 13" as part of my goal to implement some music relating SPH particle simulation effects on it - and this involves utilizing tap events also from the incredible looking fresh screen the device has.
See more information from here, all should be overreactively implemented but the ideas remain (with almost zero cost copy fragment shader) :

This attached image shows the tap effects implementation brought just bit a little further than in the video.

Bonjour à tous, je voudrais savoir comment avance mon dossier sur les applications que j’ai créé,comment puis-je faire? Et sinon quelqu’un connaît-il la Durée exacte quand APPLE envoie le code de vérification pour mes applicationà!???
I've been playing around with the recently published iPad PRO M5 13" and it's awesome in most ways I've been able to think of. But this video capture of the app I'm developing, for example, lacks it the app icon "should" be just slightly translucent as I see it.

However I'm not and UI/X person and this is primarily my personal preference only for an option to allow for devs.
We're using StoreKit for in-app purchases on iOS, and our backend has the server notification URL configured. However, during subscription renewals, Apple's server doesn't send any requests to our endpoint. What could be causing this?
Hi Apple developer community. I have a question a lot of users don’t like the new control center and notification center. Are you guys gonna blur the background or are you guys gonna keep it the same?
Hello All,
I used to own an app named LOLIIPOP, and am in the process of transferring it to my new apple account.
I am having two problems....
How do I transfer the source code and binary to my new apple account?
My developers have an old code, so I need to send them the LAST code they uploaded to the App Store.
How do I do that as well???
Please any help!!!
Thanks,
Mr. LM
Hi community,
I have a question regarding MusicKit, is it necessary to follow a design guideline to integrate this framework into my App?
Also, when no music is reproducing in MusicKit which placeholder we should show, do you provide the resource? Or can we create our own placeholder?
Thanks for all,
David.
Hello everyone! The Swift Student Challenge officially starts tomorrow (February 3rd), and I have a question. Am I allowed to use tools like Photoshop to create artwork for my project? I’d appreciate any clarification. Thanks in advance!
I am creating a shooting game which uses Game Center for multiplayer and I want to make the Matchmaker view look different. How can I do that?
Hi, I just had V1.0 of my app approved on the App Store and I immediately noticed that the icon preview is broken.
It looks good in Xcode, on-device and also in the App Store link preview.
The icon was built with Icon Composer.
Here's the difference (left is App store):
Has anyone encountered the same issue and found a solution?
Will the draw (animation) functionality of SF Symbols be available when symbols are cut/pasted into a Keynote presentation? Better yet, will the draw tools from SF Symbols 7 be available in Keynote for objects created in Keynote?
I have been battling the new Icon Composer app for 2 days trying to build an app icon. However, I cannot get it to import any files. I have used the Apple provided App Icon Template. I have exported my layers to .svg and when I open the finder, everything is disabled. I can't find help for this anywhere. I am on Sequoia on my Mac and not sure how to design this app icon without access to the composer.
