Suppress “Access Data from Other Apps” Popup in Swift Playgrounds Template on macOS 26
I’m using Swift Playgrounds on macOS 26 to learn app development, starting with the “Get Started with Apps” template. Every time I run the template, macOS shows a popup asking: “Get Started with Apps” wants to access data from other apps. Allow / Don’t Allow I’ve already tried: Granting Playgrounds Full Disk Access in System Settings → Privacy & Security Checking Automation / App Permissions Restarting Playgrounds and macOS …but the popup still appears every run. I’m aware this is related to App Sandbox and privacy restrictions, but I’m looking for a way to: Suppress this popup entirely while running playgrounds code, or Run the template in a way that avoids triggering this permission request. macOS version: 26.1 Playgrounds app version: 4.6.4

How to custom swift playground preview application ($title.app) window size
I used Swift Playground to develop application in Mac OS. Also using ZStack I used limited area in full page (using .frame(width: $, height: $)). However using command + R or clicking start button to see preview .app, while non resizing application my ZStack show as cutted. Please tell me how to set preview .app frame size as width, height... The buttom code is ContentView.swift code. @main struct ContentView: App { init() { MyFont.registerFonts() } // @StateObject private var audioPlayer = AudioPlayer() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { NavigationStack { StartMenuView() .frame(minWidth: 594, maxWidth: 594, minHeight: 1142, maxHeight: 1142) .preferredColorScheme(.dark) // Dark Mod .statusBar(hidden: true) // Hidden Status Bar .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) // Ignoring Safe Area } } .windowResizability(.contentSize) } } Thank you for reading. ![]("https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/8ad9f219-6caa-49bf-b8c3-e4b7c91ab40f" "title=image.png;width=1050;height=803") ![]("https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/395ee85e-9543-4bfd-9caf-3ce3c2ca8414" "title=image2.png;width=1104;height=973")

Making a Screenshot Without Right Hardware
I’m looking to publish an app I’ve written on my iPad (Air, to be exact), but I can’t make a screenshot at the required size (which is Pro). And yes, I don’t have a Mac (yeah, I know). Is there an easy or simple way to get a screenshot of an app if I don’t have the right hardware? Is this something I could scale/resize from a smaller device? Or, could I just include a portion of the actual screenshot in a picture (with the correct dimension) that has other text/information? any help would be greatly appreciated

#Playgrounds conflict duplicate libraries
Experimenting with #Playground macro with Xcode 26 beta 3, out of the box I see a conflict between duplicates in the XcodeDefault Toolchain. Essentially a clean install of macOS Tahoe 26 25A5306g FB18930059 Was trying to follow the first Foundation Model WWDC video example but distilling it down to the most basic use of the Playground macro produces the same error. import Playgrounds #Playground { } Any solutions / workarounds? Wasn't sure whether to attempt to delete one of these–but they are internal libraries. objc[3241]: Class PGLConcurrentMapNode is implemented in both /Applications/Xcode-beta 3.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/PlaygroundLogger.framework/Versions/A/PlaygroundLogger (0x10db98c10) and /Applications/Xcode-beta 3.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift/macosx/libLiveExecutionResultsLogger.dylib (0x10db18050). This may cause spurious casting failures and mysterious crashes. One of the duplicates must be removed or renamed. error: Couldn't look up symbols: protocol descriptor for Playgrounds.__PlaygroundsContentRecordContainer```

Cannot Upload Images on Swift Playground on XCode
Hello! I'm trying to upload images to Swift Playground on XCode, and it's not working. When I created my playground, there is no Resources folder or an assets file. If I simply drag an image file to the sidebar, the image is not showing up when used in the app. This may be a simple fix, but as a beginner, I am struggling to find the solution. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
