At WWDC25 we launched a new type of Lab event for the developer community - Group Labs. A Group Lab is a panel Q&A designed for a large audience of developers. Group Labs are a unique opportunity for the community to submit questions directly to a panel of Apple engineers and designers. Here are the highlights from the WWDC25 Group Lab for SwiftUI. What's your favorite new feature introduced to SwiftUI this year? The new rich text editor, a collaborative effort across multiple Apple teams. The safe area bar, simplifying the management of scroll view insets, safe areas, and overlays. NavigationLink indicator visibility control, a highly requested feature now available and back-deployed. Performance improvements to existing components (lists, scroll views, etc.) that come "for free" without requiring API adoption. Regarding performance profiling, it's recommended to use the new SwiftUI Instruments tool when you have a good understanding of your code and notice a performance drop after a specific change. This helps build a mental map between your code and the profiler's output. The "cause-and-effect graph" in the tool is particularly useful for identifying what's triggering expensive view updates, even if the issue isn't immediately apparent in your own code. My app is primarily UIKit-based, but I'm interested in adopting some newer SwiftUI-only scene types like MenuBarExtra or using SwiftUI-exclusive features. Is there a better way to bridge these worlds now? Yes, "scene bridging" makes it possible to use SwiftUI scenes from UIKit or AppKit lifecycle apps. This allows you to display purely SwiftUI scenes from your existing UIKit/AppKit code. Furthermore, you can use SwiftUI scene-specific modifiers to affect those scenes. Scene bridging is a great way to introduce SwiftUI into your apps. This also allows UIKit apps brought to Vision OS to integrate volumes and immersive spaces. It's also a great way to customize your experience with Assistive Access API. Can you please share any bad practices we should avoid when integrating Liquid Glass in our SwiftUI Apps? Avoid these common mistakes when integrating liquid glass: Overlapping Glass: Don't overlap liquid glass elements, as this can create visual artifacts. Scrolling Content Collisions: Be cautious when using liquid glass within scrolling content to prevent collisions with toolbar and navigation bar glass. Unnecessary Tinting: Resist the urge to tint the glass for branding or other purposes. Liquid glass should primarily be used to draw attention and convey meaning. Improper Grouping: Use the GlassEffectContainer to group related glass elements. This helps the system optimize rendering by limiting the search area for glass interactions. Navigation Bar Tinting: Avoid tinting navigation bars for branding, as this conflicts with the liquid glass effect. Instead, move branding colors into the content of the scroll view. This allows the color to be visible behind the glass at the top of the view, but it moves out of the way as the user scrolls, allowing the controls to revert to their standard monochrome style for better readability. Thanks for improving the performance of SwiftUI List this year. How about LazyVStack in ScrollView? Does it now also reuse the views inside the stack? Are there any best practices for improving the performance when using LazyVStack with large number of items? SwiftUI has improved scroll performance, including idle prefetching. When using LazyVStack with a large number of items, ensure your ForEach returns a static number of views. If you're returning multiple views within the ForEach, wrap them in a VStack to signal to SwiftUI that it's a single row, allowing for optimizations. Reuse is handled as an implementation detail within SwiftUI. Use the performance instrument to identify expensive views and determine how to optimize your app. If you encounter performance issues or hitches in scrolling, use the new SwiftUI Instruments tool to diagnose the problem. Implementing the new iOS 26 tab bar seems to have very low contrast when darker content is underneath, is there anything we should be doing to increase the contrast for tab bars? The new design is still in beta. If you're experiencing low contrast issues, especially with darker content underneath, please file feedback. It's generally not recommended to modify standard system components. As all apps on the platform are adopting liquid glass, feedback is crucial for tuning the experience based on a wider range of apps. Early feedback, especially regarding contrast and accessibility, is valuable for improving the system for all users. If I’m starting a new multi-platform app (iOS/iPadOS/macOS) that will heavily depend on UIKit/AppKit for the core structure and components (split, collection, table, and outline views), should I still use SwiftUI to manage the app lifecycle? Why? Even if your new multi-platform app heavily relies on UIKit/AppKit for core structure and components, it's generally recommended to still use SwiftUI to manage the app lifecycle. This sets you up for easier integration of SwiftUI components in the future and allows you to quickly adopt new SwiftUI features. Interoperability between SwiftUI and UIKit/AppKit is a core principle, with APIs to facilitate going back and forth between the two frameworks. Scene bridging allows you to bring existing SwiftUI scenes into apps that use a UIKit lifecycle, or vice versa. Think of it not as a binary choice, but as a mix of whatever you need. I’d love to know more about the matchedTransitionSource API you’ve added - is it a native way to have elements morph from a VStack to a sheet for example? What is the use case for it? The matchedTransitionSource API helps connect different views during transitions, such as when presenting popovers or other presentations from toolbar items. It's a way to link the user interaction to the presented content. For example, it can be used to visually connect an element in a VStack to a sheet. It can also be used to create a zoom effect where an element appears to enlarge, and these transitions are fully interactive, allowing users to swipe. It creates a nice, polished experience for the user. Support for this API has been added to toolbar items this year, and it was already available for standard views.

Calling contactAccessPicker results in a blank sheet and a jetsam error, rather than the expected contact picker, using Apple’s sample code, only on device with iOS 26.2.1. This is happening on a iPhone 17 Pro Max running 26.2.1, and not on a simulator. I’m running Apple's sample project Accessing a person’s contact data using Contacts and ContactsUI Steps: Run the sample app on device running iOS 26.2.1. Use the flow to authorize .limited access with 1 contact: Tap request access, Continue, Select Contacts. Select a contact, Continue, Allow Selected Contact. This all works as expected. Tap the add contact button in the toolbar to add a second contact. Expected: This should show the Contact Access Picker UI. Actual: Sheet is shown with no contents. See screenshot of actual results on iOS device running 26.2.1. Reported as FB21812568 I see a similar (same?) error reported for 26.1. It seems strange that the feature is completely broken for multiple point releases. Is anyone else seeing this or are the two of us running into the same rare edge case? Expected Outcome, seen on simulator running 26.2 Actual outcome, seen on device running 26.2.1

iOS 15 - iOS 26.x, SwiftUI, Xcode 26.1.1 (rewritten without links) I’m attempting to add the capability to export a file from CoreData. Since ShareLink requires iOS16+, I found an article showing how to create a UIKit wrapper for 'UIActivityViewController' This does work, but I end up with multiple files instead of one. How do I merge this into one file? Note: I don’t think I want to write to the app’s document directory – rather I’d like to allow the user to export to iCloud. Eventually, I’d like to share a list of dates with descriptions and if someone puts a sensitive date in there – I don’t want it to be left in a directory. I would include a warning that the file that they export needs to be handled with care if there are any sensitive dates. Some might consider birthdays as private information, right? I'd also like to be able to name the file - so far when the share sheet comes up, I select "Save to Files" and it uses a default name of text.txt My next step is to be able to import a CSV file (roundtrip) - could you point me to resources for how to do that?

If I see it correctly, it is currently not possible to validate a drop operation on a DynamicViewContent when using dropDestination? Just a simple example: Let's say I build a folder view on macOS where I can arrange folders freely. In this case I need to use DynamicViewContent.dropDestination to get an insertion index on drop. However, it seems that methods like dropConfiguration do not have any effect. Als dropDestionation(…, isTargeted:) seems not to be available. Here is my sample code: struct FolderRow: View { let folder: Folder var body: some View { DisclosureGroup(isExpanded: .constant(true)) { ForEach(folder.children) { child in FolderRow(folder: child) } .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { item, idx in print("Dropped at \(idx)") } } label: { Label(folder.name, systemImage: "folder") .draggable(folder) .dropDestination(for: Folder.self) { items, _ in print("Dropped on Item") } } .dropConfiguration { session in DropConfiguration(operation: .move) } } } struct ContentView: View { @State private var folder: Folder = Folder.sampleData @State private var selection: Set<UUID> = [] var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List(selection: $selection) { FolderRow(folder: folder) } } detail: { EmptyView() } } } The dropConfiguration is applied on the Label (in this case the "Move" cursor is used instead of the "Copy" cursor). Is there any way to do that or is it just an omission in Swift UI?

I'm using UITabBarAppearance to customize my TabBar in a SwiftUI app. The customization works perfectly on iOS 18 and earlier, but after updating to iOS 26, the unselected tab items no longer respect my color settings - they just appear black (they are on a white background).Here's my simplified setup: struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { Text("Home") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house") Text("Home") } .tag(0) Text("Settings") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "gear") Text("Settings") } .tag(1) } .onAppear { setupTabBarAppearance() } } private func setupTabBarAppearance() { let appearance = UITabBarAppearance() appearance.configureWithOpaqueBackground() let itemAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance() // These settings work for selected items itemAppearance.selected.iconColor = .systemBlue itemAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [ .font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 10), .foregroundColor: UIColor.systemBlue ] // These settings STOPPED working on iOS 26 for unselected items itemAppearance.normal.iconColor = .gray itemAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [ .font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 10), .foregroundColor: UIColor.gray ] appearance.stackedLayoutAppearance = itemAppearance appearance.inlineLayoutAppearance = itemAppearance appearance.compactInlineLayoutAppearance = itemAppearance UITabBar.appearance().standardAppearance = appearance UITabBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = appearance } }

When using ShareLink in SwiftUI to share an image, the “Save Image” action dismisses not only the share sheet but also the presenting SwiftUI view. The behavior differs depending on whether the photo library permission alert appears. Observed behavior: The first time the user taps Save Image, the system permission alert appears. After granting permission, the image saves successfully and the share sheet dismisses normally. On subsequent attempts, the image is saved successfully, but both the share sheet and the presenting view are dismissed unexpectedly. Expected behavior: After saving the image, only the share sheet should dismiss. The presenting SwiftUI view should remain visible. Steps to Reproduce Present a SwiftUI view using .sheet. Inside that view, add a ShareLink configured to export a PNG image using Transferable. Tap the ShareLink button. Choose Save Image. Grant permission the first time (if prompted). Repeat the action. Result: On subsequent saves, the share sheet dismisses and the presenting view is dismissed as well. Sample code ` internal import System import UniformTypeIdentifiers import SwiftUI struct RootView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.white Button("Show parent view") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { ParentView() } } } struct ParentView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { Color.red.opacity(0.5) } .toolbar { ToolbarItem() { let name = "\(UUID().uuidString)" let image = UIImage(named: "after")! return ShareLink( item: ShareableImage(image: image, fileName: name), preview: SharePreview( name, image: Image(uiImage: image) ) ) { Image(uiImage: UIImage(resource: .Icons.share24)) .resizable() .foregroundStyle(Color.black) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) } } } } } } struct ShareableImage: Transferable { let image: UIImage let fileName: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { FileRepresentation(exportedContentType: .png) { item in let fileURL = FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory .appendingPathComponent(item.fileName) .appendingPathExtension("png") guard let data = item.image.pngData() else { throw NSError(domain: "ImageEncodingError", code: 0) } try data.write(to: fileURL) return SentTransferredFile(fileURL) } } } `

Hi! I've encountered strange bug in iOS 26. The MultiDatePicker component exhibits unreliable behavior when attempting to deselect previously chosen dates. Users often need to tap a selected date multiple times (e.g., tap to deselect, tap to re-select, then tap again to deselect) for the UI to correctly register the deselection and update the displayed state. This issue does not occur on iOS 18 or Xcode 26 previews, where MultiDatePicker functions as expected, allowing single-tap deselection. The bug only occurs on physical device or simulator. I can't lie, I have multidatepicker as crucial component in my larger app and can't really find a solution to this. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Here is the code to replicate the issue: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View {     @ State private var selectedDates: Set = []     var body: some View {         NavigationStack {             Form {                 Section {                     MultiDatePicker("Select Dates", selection: $selectedDates)                 } header: {                     Text("MultiDatePicker Bug Test")                 }                 Section {                     Text("Selected Dates Count: (selectedDates.count)")                     ForEach(Array(selectedDates).sorted(by: {                         Calendar.current.date(from: $0)! < Calendar.current.date(from: $1)!                     }), id: .self) { dateComponent in                         if let date = Calendar.current.date(from: dateComponent) {                             Text(date.formatted(date: .long, time: .omitted))                         }                     }                 } header: {                     Text("Current State of Selected Dates")                 }             }             .navigationTitle("Date Picker Bug")         }     } } #Preview {     ContentView() }

I want to create SplitView App for macOS like Apple Mail. Is it possible using swiftUI NavigationSplitView or should I use AppKit to achieve it. I want exact toolbar buttons also. Filter button will be in Invoice list pane and other buttons in the details pane. Also, I want details pane completely collapsable(just like in Mail app).

[Submitted as FB22226720] For a NavigationStack destination, applying .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) hides the back button and also disables the interactive left-edge back gesture when using the standard push navigation transition. However, when the destination uses .navigationTransition(.zoom), the back button is hidden but the left-edge back gesture is still available—it can still be dismissed even though back is intentionally suppressed. This creates inconsistent behavior between navigation transition styles. navigationBarBackButtonHidden(_:) works with a standard push transition, but not with .navigationTransition(.zoom). In the code below, .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) is also applied as another attempt to suppress the back-swipe gesture, but it has no effect. As a result, there’s currently no clean way to prevent back navigation when using the zoom transition. REPRO STEPS Create an iOS project then replace ContentView with code below, build and run. Leave nav type set to List Push. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. Return to the root view. Change nav type to Grid Zoom. Open an item. Verify there is no back button, then try the left-edge back gesture. ACTUAL In List Push mode, the left-edge back gesture is prevented. In Grid Zoom mode, the back button is hidden, but the left-edge back gesture still works and returns to the previous view. EXPECTED Behavior should be consistent across navigation transition styles. If this configuration is meant to suppress interactive backward navigation for a destination, it should also suppress the left-edge back gesture when using .navigationTransition(.zoom). SCREEN RECORDING SAMPLE CODE struct ContentView: View { private enum NavigationMode: String, CaseIterable { case listPush = "List Push" case gridZoom = "Grid Zoom" } @Namespace private var namespace @State private var navigationMode: NavigationMode = .listPush private let colors: [Color] = [.red, .blue] var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack(spacing: 16) { Picker("Navigation Type", selection: $navigationMode) { ForEach(NavigationMode.allCases, id: \.self) { mode in Text(mode.rawValue).tag(mode) } } .pickerStyle(.segmented) if navigationMode == .gridZoom { HStack { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { VStack { RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 14) .fill(colors[index]) .frame(height: 120) Text("Grid Item \(index + 1)") .font(.subheadline.weight(.medium)) } .padding(12) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16)) .matchedTransitionSource(id: index, in: namespace) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } } else { ForEach(colors.indices, id: \.self) { index in NavigationLink(value: index) { HStack { Circle() .fill(colors[index]) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) Text("List Item \(index + 1)") Spacer() Image(systemName: "chevron.right") .foregroundStyle(.secondary) } .padding() .background(.quaternary.opacity(0.25), in: RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12)) } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } Spacer() } .padding(20) .navigationTitle("Prevent Back Swipe") .navigationSubtitle("Compare Grid Zoom vs List Push") .navigationDestination(for: Int.self) { index in if navigationMode == .gridZoom { DetailView(color: colors[index]) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: index, in: namespace)) } else { DetailView(color: colors[index]) } } } } } private struct DetailView: View { @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss let color: Color var body: some View { ZStack { color.ignoresSafeArea() Text("Try left-edge swipe back") .font(.title.bold()) .multilineTextAlignment(.center) .padding(.horizontal, 24) } .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) .interactiveDismissDisabled(true) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button("Close", action: dismiss.callAsFunction) } } } }

I have an icon button in toolbar but only the icon is triggering tap events while outside icon button gives tap feedback but event is not firing. Code: ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { Button(action: toggleBookmark) { Image(systemName: isBookmarked ? "bookmark.fill" : "bookmark") .resizable() .aspectRatio(0.8, contentMode: .fit) .frame(width: 20, height: 20) } } Here toggleBookmark function is only called if I click on Image but not if I click outside image but on the circular button that appears on iOS 26. See this screen recording.

I am reporting a reproducible performance issue in iOS 18.6 where synchronizing the scroll position of two Chart views via chartScrollPosition(id:) causes a complete redraw loop when custom AxisMarks are used. This occurs even when the axis marks are technically "hidden," leading to significant frame drops and stuttering on modern hardware like the iPhone 15. Environment Device: iPhone 15 OS: iOS 18.6 (22G86) Frameworks: SwiftUI, Swift Charts, Observation The Issue When using a shared @Observable state to sync two charts, the scrolling is fluid only if the axes are at their default settings. As soon as a custom AxisMarks block is added to either chart, the following behavior is observed: Diffing Failure: The framework appears unable to maintain the identity of the axis components during the scroll update. Redraw Loop: Instead of an incremental scroll translation, the diffing algorithm triggers a full reload/re-render of both charts on every scroll offset change. Impact: CPU spikes to 100% and the UI becomes unresponsive. This happens even if the custom AxisMarks is used solely to hide the axis (e.g., AxisMarks { _ in }), suggesting the issue is with the custom declaration itself rather than the complexity of the marks being rendered. Steps to Reproduce Create two Chart views in a VStack. Bind both to a single @Observable property using .chartScrollPosition(id: $state.pos). Add any .chartXAxis { AxisMarks(...) { ... } } modifier. Scroll either chart; observe the stuttering. import SwiftUI import Charts import Observation @Observable class ChartState { var scrollPos: Date = .now } struct PerformanceBugView: View { @State private var state = ChartState() var body: some View { VStack { Chart(data) { ... } .chartScrollPosition(id: $state.scrollPos) .chartXAxis { // This custom mark triggers the performance issue AxisMarks { _ in AxisValueLabel() } } Chart(data) { ... } .chartScrollPosition(id: $state.scrollPos) } } } Questions for the Community/Apple Engineers: Is there a way to provide a stable identifier to AxisMarks to prevent them from being treated as "new" during a scroll update? Why does even an empty AxisMarks block (used for hiding) trigger a layout invalidation that standard axes do not? Are there internal optimizations for chartScrollPosition that are bypassed when the axis layout is customized?

FeedBack Id: FB22031397 (Demo proj Attached to Feedback) Description: When a TabView using .page tabViewStyle is placed inside a sheet configured with multiple presentationDetents, dragging the sheet handle to resize between detents causes the TabView to re-render all its pages on every frame of the drag gesture. This results in visible content vibration, scroll position jumping, and tab content flashing during the drag. The issue is fully reproducible with the attached minimal demo project. Steps to Reproduce: Run the attached TabViewSheetVibrationDemo.swift on any iOS device or simulator Tap "Open Sheet" on the main screen Swipe left to any tab Scroll down inside the tab so content is not at the top Grab the sheet drag indicator at the top and slowly drag upward or downward to resize between medium and large detent Observe the tab content while dragging Expected Results: The TabView page content should remain completely stable during sheet resize. Scroll positions should be preserved and no re-rendering should occur because the underlying data has not changed. The sheet should resize smoothly while tab content stays still. Actual Results: The TabView re-renders all pages on every frame of the drag gesture. This causes: Visible content vibration and jitter while dragging the sheet handle Scroll position jumping back toward the top mid-drag Tab content flashing as pages are recreated The problem is proportional to drag speed — slower drags show a stuttering effect, faster drags cause a full content flash Configuration: All Xcode including beta iOS 26 (also reproduced on iOS 16, iOS 17 and iOS 18) Reproducible on both Simulator and real device Affects iPhone and iPad

I have a Form (scrollable) that contains 2 inputs as a Picker and a Stepper where frequency is an enum and time an Int. struct ConfigurationView: View { @Bindable var configuration: ConfigurationModel var body: some View { NavigationStack { Form { Picker(.frequency, selection: $configuration.frequency) { /* ... */ } Stepper(value: $configuration.time, in: 1...8) { // Stepper Label } .focusable() Button(.save) { configuration.save() } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .listRowBackground(Color.clear) } .navigationTitle(.configuration) } } } The main issue I'm facing is a delay in the UI (1-3 seconds) while interacting with the Digital Crown over the focused Stepper which prints a Crown Sequencer warning: Crown Sequencer was set up without a view property. This will inevitably lead to incorrect crown indicator states This mainly happens when the Picker, which is showed as a modal or Sheet, changes its value, so the Stepper no longer gets focusable again. Looking into the docs, lectures and WWDC videos I just found that we need to provide a some sort of a focus, that's why the Stepper control has a focusable() modifier. I don't know if there is an overlap between the scroll and the focus event on the control.

[Submitted as FB22200608] With Increase Contrast turned on, the selected row highlight in a List behaves inconsistently between light and dark appearance on iPad. In light appearance the blue selection highlight correctly becomes darker, but in dark appearance it becomes lighter instead. The text contrast ratio drops from about 3:1 to about 1.5:1, well below accessibility guidelines. This reproduces both in the simulator and on a physical device. The sample uses a standard SwiftUI List inside NavigationSplitView with built-in selection styling. No custom colors or styling are applied. REPRO STEPS Create a new Multiplatform project. Replace ContentView with code below. Build and run on iPad. Select an item in the list. Turn on Dark appearance (Cmd-Shift-A in Simulator). Turn on Increase Contrast (Cmd-Control-Shift-A in Simulator). Observe the selected row highlight. ACTUAL In light appearance, the blue selection highlight becomes darker when Increase Contrast is on, improving contrast as expected. In dark appearance, the blue selection highlight becomes lighter when Increase Contrast is on, reducing contrast between the selection background and the white text. EXPECTED Increase Contrast should consistently increase contrast. In dark appearance, the selection highlight should become darker—or otherwise increase contrast with the foreground text—not lighter. SAMPLE CODE struct ContentView: View { @State private var selection: String? var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { Text("Sidebar") } content: { List(selection: $selection) { Text("Item One") .tag("One") Text("Item Two") .tag("Two") } } detail: { if let selection { Text(selection) } else { Text("Select an item") } } } } SCREEN RECORDING CONTACTS The Contacts app behaves correctly. When Increase Contrast is turned on, the selection blue becomes darker, improving contrast. PASSWORDS The Passwords app, however, exhibits the issue. With Increase Contrast turned on, the selection blue becomes lighter instead of darker, reducing contrast.

I’m running into an issue using .contactAccessPicker on a device running iOS 26.1 - a blank sheet appears instead of the expected Contact Access Picker. It works on: Simulator (iOS 26.0) Device + Simulator (iOS 18.6) The issue appears specific to real devices on iOS 26.0+.

ShareLink works fine except for save image action which dismiss the presenting view first time system shows the premission alert so image get saved without any problem but for the next saves image get saved then share sheet dismiss and also presenting view dismiss as well here is a sample code ` internal import System import UniformTypeIdentifiers import SwiftUI struct RootView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { ZStack { Color.white Button("Show parent view") { isPresented = true } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { ParentView() } } } struct ParentView: View { @State private var isPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { Color.red.opacity(0.5) } .toolbar { ToolbarItem() { let name = "\(UUID().uuidString)" let image = UIImage(named: "after")! return ShareLink( item: ShareableImage(image: image, fileName: name), preview: SharePreview( name, image: Image(uiImage: image) ) ) { Image(uiImage: UIImage(resource: .Icons.share24)) .resizable() .foregroundStyle(Color.black) .frame(width: 24, height: 24) } } } } } } struct ShareableImage: Transferable { let image: UIImage let fileName: String static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation { FileRepresentation(exportedContentType: .png) { item in let fileURL = FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory .appendingPathComponent(item.fileName) .appendingPathExtension("png") guard let data = item.image.pngData() else { throw NSError(domain: "ImageEncodingError", code: 0) } try data.write(to: fileURL) return SentTransferredFile(fileURL) } } } `

I have faced a problem while I was trying to implement a reorder drag & drop view. I found that when I add any kind of .gesture or .simultaneousGesture, a ScrollView's scrolling behavior wasn't working properly (does not scroll at all). ScrollView(.vertical, showsIndicators: false) { ForEach($items) { $item in EditorCard(stepDetails: item) .simultaneousGesture( customCombinedGesture(item) ) } } This ScrollView worked fine with .onLongPressGesture(), however, I wanted to use custom gestures sequences.

I've been receiving crash reports about a crash in SDFStyle.distanceRange.getter. I haven't been able to reproduce this, and users haven't given me much information about the circumstances or can't reliably reproduce this either. Googling didn't give any results. I'm happy for any pointers in the right direction. All reports have been on iOS 26 so far. 2026-03-02_23-35-03.7381_+0800-93830d0f537cfb381b42a7e9812953d772adfe64.crash

I’m embedding an NSTextView (TextKit 2) inside a SwiftUI app using NSViewRepresentable. I’m trying to highlight dynamic subranges (changing as the user types) by providing per-range rendering attributes via NSTextLayoutManager’s rendering-attributes mechanism. The issue: the highlight is unreliable. Often, the highlight doesn’t appear at all even though the delegate/data source is returning attributes for the expected range. Sometimes it appears once, but then it stops updating even when the underlying “highlight range” changes. This feels related to SwiftUI - AppKit layout issue when using NSViewRepresentable (as said in https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/nsviewrepresentable). What I’ve tried Updating the state that drives the highlight range and invalidating layout fragments / asking for relayout Ensuring all updates happen on the main thread. Calling setNeedsDisplay(_:) on the NSViewRepresentable’s underlying view. Toggling the SwiftUI view identity (e.g. .id(...)) to force reconstruction (works, but too expensive / loses state). Question In a SwiftUI + NSViewRepresentable setup with TextKit 2, what is the correct way to make NSTextLayoutManager re-query and redraw rendering attributes when my highlight ranges change? Is there a recommended invalidation call for TextKit 2 to trigger re-rendering of rendering attributes? Or is this a known limitation when hosting NSTextView inside SwiftUI, where rendering attributes aren’t reliably invalidated? If this approach is fragile, is there a better pattern for dynamic highlights that avoids mutating the attributed string (to prevent layout/scroll jitter)?

Hey all, I found a weird behaviour with the searchable component. I created a custom bottom nav bar (because I have custom design in my app) to switch between screens. On one screen I display a List component with the searchable component. Whenever I enter the search screen the first time, the searchable component is displayed at the bottom. This is wrong. It should be displayed at the top under the navigationTitle. When I enter the screen a second time, everything is correct. This behaviour can be reproduced on all iOS 26 versions on the simulator and on a physical device with debug and release build. On iOS 18 everything works fine. Steps to reproduce: Cold start of the app Click on Search TabBarIcon (searchable wrong location) Click on Home TabBarIcon Click on Search TabBarIcon (searchable correct location) Simple code example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State var selectedTab: Page = Page.main var body: some View { NavigationStack { ZStack { VStack { switch selectedTab { case .main: MainView() case .search: SearchView() } } VStack { Spacer() VStack(spacing: 0) { HStack(spacing: 0) { TabBarIcon(iconName: "house", selected: selectedTab == .main, displayName: "Home") .onTapGesture { selectedTab = .main } TabBarIcon(iconName: "magnifyingglass", selected: selectedTab == .search, displayName: "Search") .onTapGesture { selectedTab = .search } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 55) .background(Color.gray) } .ignoresSafeArea(.all, edges: .bottom) } } } } } struct TabBarIcon: View { let iconName: String let selected: Bool let displayName: String var body: some View { ZStack { VStack { Image(systemName: iconName) .resizable() .renderingMode(.template) .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fit) .foregroundColor(Color.black) .frame(width: 22, height: 22) Text(displayName) .font(Font.system(size: 10)) } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) } } enum Page { case main case search } struct MainView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") } .padding() .navigationTitle("Home") } } struct SearchView: View { @State private var searchText = "" let items = [ "Apple", "Banana", "Pear", "Strawberry", "Orange", "Peach", "Grape", "Mango" ] var filteredItems: [String] { if searchText.isEmpty { return items } else { return items.filter { $0.localizedCaseInsensitiveContains(searchText) } } } var body: some View { List(filteredItems, id: \.self) { item in Text(item) } .navigationTitle("Fruits") .searchable(text: $searchText, placement: .navigationBarDrawer(displayMode: .always), prompt: "Search") } }

When I use the .zoom transition in a navigation stack, I get a glitch when interrupting the animation by swiping back before it completes. When doing this, the source view disappears. I can still tap it to trigger the navigation again, but its not visible on screen. This seems to be a regression in iOS 26, as it works as expected when testing on iOS 18. Has someone else seen this issue and found a workaround? Is it possible to disable interrupting the transition?
