I downloaded iOS 26 beta 3. I was very happy with how it turned out, but when I activated Siri, I noticed the rainbow pulsing glow that bordered the phone was missing, and all that was left was the original Siri bubble. I was very disappointed, does anyone know how to get this back? I loved that design feature.

The most recent update included coloured icons for grouping of emails anybody previously needing to group emails we’re able to achieve this alphabetically by simply searching for what you were looking for. These icons clutter the page with totally unnecessary screen pollution. if you want to persist with this folly can you please provide a classic display option for those of us who have happily survived using email for 30 years without this fluff.

Looking at the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility documentation, watchOS is not listed among the supported platforms. When added to the project, it is also being ignored, resulting in Liquid Glass design. It is possible to opt-out from Liquid Glass design temporarily. Is that just an oversight for Apple Watch please?

When we are going to have a real analog clock option on the lock screen. If an apple watch can do it surely its not that difficult. For someone who uses a clock to tell what time it isn't as opposed to what time it is, i’m constantly having to convert a digital image where the image of hands on a dial is so much easier. Surely this isnt because someone has forgotten how to read a clock

Is it possible to modify or mark elements in the room plan model generated by the framework?

I've seen a few older posts claiming the same behavior I'm seeing which is my cloudkit/core data app only syncs to iOS when the iOS app is reloaded. Can someone clarify if this is a bug, or the expected behavior. I have an iOS app which the entire purpose of it is to view synced data from MacOS, and I have a refresh button which does nothing because the data only syncs when the app is closed and reopened. Am I supposed to tell users to close and reopen the app to see fresh data? that seems like a terrible UI behavior, and I know apple does not accept this as all of their apps sync without needing to be reloaded. For example the notes app does not need to be reloaded for the MacOS -> iOS data to be synced.

Prior to iOS 26, this successfully gave me a modal view with a transparent background: let settingsVC = MySettingsViewController() settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .automatic //settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext self.present(settingsVC, animated: true, completion: { } MySettingsViewController: self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor(white: 0, alpha: 0.5) Now in iOS 26, modal view is presented in a opaque grey background.

Hello, You are developing iOS 26. I hope you will fix the issue where the AṀ/PM is missing from the Time Display. Thanks

Hi, I would like to make an educational app for helping my students to learn about malaria diagnosis and need to put some animal icon. In the tabview, is it possible to use system images like monkey, bird, mouse. I cannot see these animals in SF symbol list.

Please

I placed apple.logo symbol image on the top of a view. This view is used to link or unlink Apple ID for user. In the middle is the apple sign in button. I want to use something to describe or represent what the view is, instead of using text description. so I think sign in's company logo is a good choice. Is it allowed by apple official?

Not sure if anyone else has this issue, however with the new appearances when i use the dark appearance and then open the app "TickTick", the icon goes to its original colour until the app is closed.

The bane of my existence has been designing interfaces where the whole view needs to scroll, but a portion is a List and the other portion is static. I run into this problem time and again so I was hoping someone has a good solution because we all know that embedding a List view inside ScrollView is a no-go within SwiftUI. It simply doesn't work. So what is a best practice when you need the whole screen to scroll, but a portion is a List? Use a navigation stack instead of a ScrollView? What if it's a child view of a navigation stack already?

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 VStack(spacing: 20) { ZStack { Image("PasswordBar") .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill) .padding() SecureField("Password:", text: $textInput2) .padding(.horizontal, 75) .background(Color.clear) .foregroundColor(.red) .focused($focus, equals: .password) .submitLabel(.go) .onSubmit { submitForm() } } .frame(height: 50) .clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10)) .padding(.horizontal) // Forgot Password link (right-aligned) HStack { Spacer() Text("Forgot Password?") .foregroundColor(.blue) .onTapGesture { navigationPath.append("passwordRecovery") } } .padding(.horizontal, 90) } Spacer(minLength: -110) // SignIn Button - Explicitly showing it HStack { Spacer() Button { submitForm() } label: { Image("signinButton") .resizable() .frame(width: 500, height: 400) } Spacer() } Spacer(minLength: -300) // Create Account (centered) HStack { Spacer() Text("Create Account") .foregroundColor(.blue) .onTapGesture { navigationPath.append("accountCreation") } Spacer() } .padding(.bottom, -10) } } } .onAppear { focus = .username } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { destination in switch destination { case "dashboard": DSDDashboard() case "passwordRecovery": PasswordRecoveryView() case "accountCreation": AccountCreationView() default: EmptyView() } } .alert(isPresented: $showAlert) { Alert( title: Text("Missing Information"), message: Text("Enter UserName and Password to continue to DSD"), dismissButton: .default(Text("OK")) ) } } } // Function to handle form submission func submitForm() { focus = nil if textInput.isEmpty || textInput2.isEmpty { showAlert = true } else { print("Login with username: \(textInput), password: \(textInput2)") navigationPath.append("dashboard") } } // Enum to manage focus states enum FormFieldFocus: Hashable { case username, password } }

Hello Apple Engineering Team and Fellow Developers, I’ve been using iOS 26 beta from day one and closely following all its improvements. One feature that significantly enhances the user experience is the automatic hiding of the Home Bar (the bottom navigation indicator) after a few seconds of inactivity in menus and apps. This subtle but powerful UI behavior not only increases immersion but also reduces distractions, making navigation smoother and visually cleaner. I strongly urge the Apple team to integrate this feature into the upcoming iOS 18.6 update. Bringing this polished interaction to iOS 18 users would greatly improve usability and keep the interface modern and elegant. Thank you for your continuous efforts in refining iOS. Looking forward to seeing this improvement officially adopted soon! Best regards, [ERFANEX]

When I create a tab group for the sidebar on iPad, the title and disclosure triangle act like a single control. Every time I tap the section title, the disclosure triangle for that section activates and hides or exposes that section's children and actions. I want the section title to behave like Photos, where tapping a section title just displays its view controller, and the disclosure triangle is a separate control that must be tapped to hide and show children and actions. I did not see any delegate methods that would let me control this behavior. Is this supported?

In the past, we had a red badge without a number on the app icon. We want to bring it back. Please provide instructions.

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!

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!
