I just wonder if it’s possible to add push notifications to an app made it Swift Playgrounds or if it always has to be exported to XCode first

I am running Swift Playgrounds 4.51 under OSX 14.7 on a Mac mini M2 Pro. Under App settings for my app, I select "Install on this Mac." I get an error "An error occurred during installation Please check Console.app for further information" I can't find any entry in the console logs for this. I have a personal (free) developer account. Is there a way to create a Finder launchable app with Swift Playgrounds? I found part of the problem. My main user that I use for "normal" activity does not have administrative rights. If I give that user administrative rights, the create app succeeds and the app is added to the global Applications folder. Is there a way to have the app added to my User Application folder that then shouldn't require administrative access?

I keep trying to use the app but every time I try to click the module "get started with code" it crashes and produces an error log, attached. Crash log

Some reason the image 'Ren' is not being loaded even though it is in the project how can I resolve this issue in Xcode Playgrounds?

Hi, I have recently downloaded the app to start learning how to code in swift and so on. On my first try I have gotten the error stating that ”.swiftpm files cannot be opened”. I have followed some forum posts. I restarted my iPad several times and redown the app several times. I tried to disable the iCloud sync but I think I deleted the iCloud directory entirely that just results in the app closing on any action taken. (such as pressing the “New App” option or choosing the quick actions to make apps). Is there a way to fix this? Any help is appreciate, please ask me to provide any extra needed information.

When I go to the App Settings menu in Swift Playgrounds and attempt to upload to App Store Connect, I run into the below error screen: I am registered with the Apple Developer Program. Swift Playgrounds is updated to its latest version. This is occurring on both macOS and iPadOS. All the information I put in is valid. Any reason why this would be happening?

I'm facing an issue with Swift Playgrounds and files created in Xcode 16. It seems that Swift Playgrounds does not support Swift 6, but even when I create files specifically with Swift 5, Swift Playgrounds still reports that the files are unsupported. This creates a significant problem because macOS Sequoia does not allow me to revert to Xcode 15, which might have offered better compatibility. As it stands, I can't find a solution to work seamlessly between Xcode and Swift Playgrounds. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any workarounds or updates planned to address this compatibility gap? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Have downloaded playgrounds 4.3 to my iPad Air running ipados 16.5. Trying to use playground “Get started with Apps” but receiving message “Unsupported file format Get Started with Apps.swiftpm cannot be opened in Swift Playgrounds”. I do not have Mac or windows PC so am stuck! Help ??

I've entered some code on Version 4.5.1 of Playgrounds on my iPad mini running iOS 18.1.1. The file is saved on iCloud and so is available on my Mac running OS 15.2. However, the file will not open in either Playgrounds v 4.5.1 on the Mac (error "Unable to get file wrapper for contents.xcplayground.") or Xcode 16.1 (error "Couldn't load settings from contents.xcplayground"). The file's type is .playgorund. Any thoughts?

I am currently developing my submission for the SSC and I noticed that the swift playgrounds app for iOS does not have support for the new swift ui features in iOS 18. Are we allowed to submit apps that use these iOS 18 only features?

I am trying to implement a ML model with Core ML in a playground for a Student Challenge project, but I can not get it to work. I have already tried everything I found online but nothing seems to work (the tutorials where posted long time ago). Anyone knows how to do this with Xcode 15 and the most recent updates?

Hi, First post and I am a total newbie when it comes to Ipads & Macs... And also this forum, so sorry if I post in wrong section. My son use Ipad at school and they use Swift Playground there. To be able to do some programming at home, I have set up Vmware with Sequoia 15.1. I installed the app Swift Playground and try to run the playground Get Started with Code and some other education playgrounds. If I understand correctly, it should be some landscape and a figure on the canvas... For me it is only a blue area. I installed XCode, but could not figure out how to run the learning examples there. Tips? Is it possible to run the education playgrounds there? I removed Swift Playgrounds and installed it again, same issue. I also installed IOS 18.1 (?) but I am not sure it is needed. Any suggestion of how I can get contents to show on the canvas? Except of bying an Ipad. ;)

I’m curious about the situation since the Playgrounds haven’t released a new version to support the numerous new frameworks released this year at WWDC24. How are we supposed to build with these new frameworks if they haven’t even been released for Playgrounds for the Swift Student Challenge?

Estará disponible la app Swift para iPhone 15? Will the Swift app for iPhone 15 be available?

Can someone help me with this please… I have two apps which I have updated and have just tried uploading them to the Appstore. This troubles me because I am paid up to date… What is the best course of action for me to resolve this please?

I am trying to challenge myself by building an iPhone app in Swift Playgrounds. I just got a Mac Mini M4, so I am trying Swift Playgrounds for Mac. I can submit a build to TestFlight, but it's for Mac and won't let me even test on my iPhone. How can I build my app for iPhone? The least "hacky" answer is appreciated, but I'll entertain anything. Examples in order of hackiness might be: I missed an option in Playgrounds for Mac. Open my playground in Xcode, change something, open back in Playgrounds for Mac. Same as above, but maybe I have to add/copy a file (e.g., manifest.plist). Open my playground in Playgrounds for iPad (I have an iPad 9), do something, copy back to Playgrounds for Mac. Submit via Playgrounds for iPad. Submit via Xcode. BTW, I'm challenging myself not just for its own sake, but because I'm curious how far a student/newbie/etc can take Swift Playgrounds. I was hoping to set a good example for others looking for a lighter-resource, more user-friendly experience than Xcode (which is why I assume Playgrounds for Mac even exists). But right now it feels like Playgrounds for Mac is a … third-class citizen? Maybe the iPad version is second-class? I haven't really tried it. P.S. Why does this text editor seem so lame? Making a numbered list and adding to it is a nightmare. Should be: start a numbered list, hit return, new number appears below. I'm on Safari. This should be the best dev experience on the planet, not the worst!

Bonjour, a chaque installation de swift playgrounds sur ipad, icloud empeche la sauvegarde et empeche donc d’ouvrir les app. sur icloud drive les fichiers sont present mais a zero ko. par contre les fichiers playgroundsbook fonctionnent. la premiere solution que j’ai ***** etait de desactivé la sauvegarde icloud et ca a fonctionné en local. mais comme je veux mes fichiers sur le icloud drive j’ai tenté une autre approche. j’ai tenté de copié mes fichiers en local sur icloud drive ca ne fonctionne pas. puis j’ai juste fait un drag/drop de fichier app vers le playgrounds. l’app s’ouvre mais n’est pas sauvegardé dans icloud drive. par contre les modifs sont bien enregistrées. enfin j’ai refait la meme approche, une fois l’app ouverte dans playgrounds je l’ai partagé puis enregistré dans icloud. cette fois ci le fichier est pris en compte et fonctionne.

Hi apple I have been stuck for 2 days and it still does not work

Hi Folks! Just started again with playgrounds, and had my "Learn to code 1-2-3" Apps on old versions. Updated 1 and 2 to 5.8, and just found that Learn to code 3 was still on old version (3.1), so decided to delete it. I was hoping that normally I'll just find it where the others are for download (Learn to code & Build Apps), but it is not there.. it is not anywhere, cannot find it, and couldn't find a way to download from anywhere else. Any ideas? Maybe for Learn to code 3 there is no Swift 5.8 yet? Thanks!

Updated to iOS 18.2 beta 1 as soon as it was released on iPhone 15 pro max. playground icon on Home Screen but been waiting all this time and no activation. Dose anyone know if there is a known fault.
