I have a SwiftUI recursive list, created with the (children:) initializer, just like it's shown in the code example here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/SwiftUI/List#Creating-hierarchical-lists I would like this tree view to be searchable (i.e a user enters a query into a text field and it searches the entire tree at all levels). Displaying a search result which is not at the top level would require its parents to be programmatically expanded. How to programmatically expand certain levels of such a list?

I have a search field and a List of search results. As the user types in the search field, the List is updated with new results. Crucially, with each update, I want to reset the List's scroll position back to the top. To achieve this, I'm using the following .onChange() modifier along with a ScrollViewReader: .onChange(of: searchQuery) { _, newQuery in Task { searchResults = await searchLibrary(for: newQuery) scrollViewProxy.scrollTo(0, anchor: .top) } } My List uses index-based IDs, so scrolling to 0 should always go to the first item. The above code works, but crashes if searchResults is empty because there is no item in the List with an ID of 0. (As a side note, it seems rather excessive for the scrollTo() method to trigger a full-on crash just because the ID is not found; I don't think this should be anything more than a warning, or the method should throw an error that can be caught). To work around this, I added an isEmpty check, so we only attempt the scroll if the array is not empty: .onChange(of: searchQuery) { _, newQuery in Task { searchResults = await searchLibrary(for: newQuery) if !searchResults.isEmpty { scrollViewProxy.scrollTo(0, anchor: .top) } } } However, even with this check, I was seeing rare crashes in production, consistent with a race condition. My guess is that when searchResults is updated, the view is not recreated immediately, so if scrollTo() is called too quickly, the List may not yet be seeing the latest update to the searchResults array. I figured that I could try to delay the calling of scrollTo() to give the view time to update: .onChange(of: searchQuery) { _, newQuery in Task { searchResults = await searchLibrary(for: newQuery) if !searchResults.isEmpty { DispatchQueue.main.async { scrollViewProxy.scrollTo(0, anchor: .top) } } } } However, even with this, I've just received a crash report pointing to the same issue (the first in about four months). I'm not able to reproduce the bug myself – so it definitely seems like a rare race condition, probably relating to the timing of view updates. I guess, I can insert another isEmpty check before calling scrollTo(), but I'm starting to wonder if it's even possible to guarantee that the item will be in the List when scrollTo() performs its action, and because this is so hard to reproduce, I can't really test any ideas. Does anyone have any idea how (and at what point) the ScrollViewReader reads the view's current state? What's the right way to approach debugging a problem like this? Moreover, does anyone have any better suggestions about how to handle resetting the List position? The reason I want to do this is because, if the user types, scrolls a bit, and then types some more, the new results appear above the fold where the user can't see them, leading to a confusing experience. I thought about switching to the newer .scrollPosition() modifier, but that's only iOS 18+ and only for ScrollViews, not Lists. Cheers!

When tap the Button quickly in List, the ButtonStyleConfiguration’s isPressed property don't change properly, always false. When using Button in ScrollView, the same error doesn't exist.

When I called the setTabBarHidden method and passed in false, I found in the KVO callback of the tabBar.isHidden property that the value of newValue was true. Why are the values of the two different? Is this a bug? Here is the debug stack.

Simple code like struct ContentView: View { @Query var items: [Item] var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") } .padding() } } causes UI Hierarchy crash, on Simulators, iPhone and Mac I found no solution but use @State with fetch descriptor.

I'm trying to revamp the player into a floating style like Apple music. I use tabViewBottomAccessory with tabBarMinimizeBehavior. At the time, I noticed an issue that tabViewBottomAccessory would not automatically collapse when the scroll area was small (but still exceeded the screen height). tabViewBottomAccessory can only be automatically collapsed when the scroll area is large enough. Below is the simplest demo. I'm not sure if it's intentional or if it's a bug. Besides, I wonder if we can control it programmatically(expanded/inline)? struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { TabView { Tab("Numbers", systemImage: "number.circle") { List { // 200 works well, but 20 not ForEach(0..<200) { index in Text("\(index)") } } } } .tabBarMinimizeBehavior(.onScrollDown) .tabViewBottomAccessory { HStack { Text("SwiftUI Demo App") } } } }

Hello, I'm thinking about how to improve my main tvOS app flow, naively I want to do something like this: import Combine import SwiftUI enum AppState { case login, onboarding, main } class AppStateManager { let appStatePublisher = PassthroughSubject<AppState, Never>() func updateState(_ appState: AppState) } struct tvOSApp: App { private var appState: AppState = .login private let appStateManager = AppStateManager() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ZStack { switch appState { case .login: LoginView() case .onboarding: OnboardingView() case .main: MainView() } } .onReceive(appStateManager.appStatePublisher) { self.appState = $0 } } } } So basically, MainView, OnboardingView and LoginView would be the main navigation views of my app, and the appStateManager would be a dependency passed to each of these views and allowing me to update the currently displayed view in the app. (of course I could use an Environment object instead for a 100% SwiftUI solution). I was wondering, however, if there is a better way to do this, instead of switching in a ZStack, maybe with WindowGroup/Window/Scenes? Thank you for your help!

We have an iOS app running on macOS (not Mac Catalyst). The preferences are in a dedicated UIWindowScene. We don't want this scene to be restored, so when you start the app the preferences shouldn't be visible. How can we prevent the UIWindowScene restoration? Alternatively, if we can't prevent it, how can we ensure the main window scene is in front of the preferences window scene on app start?

I am working on a Live Activity widget. In it, I want some of the elements to open different deeplink URLs. I have found that assigning multiple widgetURL doesn't work, only one of the URLs gets opened no matter where you tap. I also found that Buttons don't seem to do anything, tapping them actually just open my app as if I just tapped a naked Live Activity. I have found that really only Link elements work if I want to open different URLs upon tapping different elements. And Links are cool and fine, but I am seeing that on tap, my elements become tinted... As in, there is a highlighted state, and it makes the elements inside blue. I have tried to use button style API on a link, but it didn't work. How can I disable the highlighted state for a Link element in a live activity widget?

Fatal Exception: NSInternalInconsistencyException Cannot remove an observer <WKWebView 0x135137800> for the key path "configuration.enforcesChildRestrictions" from <STScreenTimeConfigurationObserver 0x13c6d7460>, most likely because the value for the key "configuration" has changed without an appropriate KVO notification being sent. Check the KVO-compliance of the STScreenTimeConfigurationObserver [class.] I noticed that on iOS 26, WKWebView registers STScreenTimeConfigurationObserver, Is this an iOS 26 system issue? What should I do?

I am looking for a way to change the liquid glass background colors on UIBarButtonItems. Setting tintColor does what I want for a bar button item when it is both the default button and it is enabled. But it does not seem to do anything for disabled buttons or non-prominent buttons. Also, is there a way to apply such a change using a UINavigationBarAppearance or a UIBarButtonItemAppearance? If I cannot change this liquid glass color, I might need to disable liquid glass on these by setting hidesSharedBackground to true. Is there a way to do this globally within the app (without using UIDesignRequiresCompatibility), or with something like UINavigationBarAppearance or UIBarButtonItemAppearance? Thank you. John

I am trying to address an issue with my app’s share sheet where, when the user sends a URL to either Apple Reminders or OmniFocus, the receiving app does not get a title. So I am updating my share sheet code to use UIActivityItemsConfiguration. I have this code: let title = "Golden Hill Software" let url = URL(string: "https://www.goldenhillsoftware.com/")! let itemProvider = NSItemProvider() itemProvider.registerObject(ofClass: URL.self, visibility: .all) { (handler) in handler(url, nil) return nil } let config = UIActivityItemsConfiguration(itemProviders: [itemProvider]) config.metadataProvider = { (key) in if key == .title || key == .messageBody { return title } else { return nil } } let viewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItemsConfiguration: config) self.present(viewController, animated: true) This works with some share sheet extensions. But when I choose the Ivory share extension, Ivory creates a post with a URL that starts with bplist…. When I choose the Open in Chrome action extension, Chrome says “Chrome cannot handle this link”. Can someone help me understand what I am doing wrong here? (edited)

inline-code How do you achieve this effect in toolbar? Where is the documentation for this? How to make it appear top toolbar or bottom toolbar? Thank you! Here is what I have now... .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .destructiveAction) { Button { showConfirm = true } label: { Image(systemName: "trash") .foregroundColor(.red) } } } .confirmationDialog( "Are you sure?", isPresented: $showConfirm, titleVisibility: .visible ) { Button("Delete Item", role: .destructive) { print("Deleted") } Button("Archive", role: .none) { print("Archived") } Button("Cancel", role: .cancel) { } } }

Hi Team, How do I prevent screenshots using SwiftUI. I was using this solution on UIKit: extension UIView { func makeSecure() { DispatchQueue.main.async { let protectedView = UIView() self.superview?.addSubview(protectedView) // constraints... let secureView = SecureView() self.superview?.addSubview(secureView) // constraints... secureView.addSecureSubview(self) // constraints... } } } class SecureView: UIView { private lazy var secureField: UIView = { var secureField: UIView = UIView() // ... if let secureContainer = SecureField().secureContainer { secureField = secureContainer } ... return secureField }() required init() { ... } } Is it posible to do the same thing using SwiftUI. Do we have an example? What would you recommend when we work with confidencial information in SwiftUI like bank account information? Thanks in advance!

The zoom navigation transition with matchedTransitionSource in tabViewBottomAccessory does not work when a Published var in an ObservableObjector Observable gets changed. Here is an minimal reproducible example with ObservableObject: import SwiftUI import Combine private final class ViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var isPresented = false } struct ContentView: View { @Namespace private var namespace @StateObject private var viewModel = ViewModel() // @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { TabView { Button { viewModel.isPresented = true } label: { Text("Start") } .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house") Text("Home") } Text("Search") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "magnifyingglass") Text("Search") } Text("Profile") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "person") Text("Profile") } } .sheet(isPresented: $viewModel.isPresented) { Text("Sheet") .presentationDragIndicator(.visible) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace)) } .tabViewBottomAccessory { Button { viewModel.isPresented = true } label: { Text("BottomAccessory") } .matchedTransitionSource(id: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace) } } } However, when using only a State property everything works: import SwiftUI import Combine private final class ViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var isPresented = false } struct ContentView: View { @Namespace private var namespace // @StateObject private var viewModel = ViewModel() @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { TabView { Button { isPresented = true } label: { Text("Start") } .tabItem { Image(systemName: "house") Text("Home") } Text("Search") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "magnifyingglass") Text("Search") } Text("Profile") .tabItem { Image(systemName: "person") Text("Profile") } } .sheet(isPresented: $isPresented) { Text("Sheet") .presentationDragIndicator(.visible) .navigationTransition(.zoom(sourceID: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace)) } .tabViewBottomAccessory { Button { isPresented = true } label: { Text("BottomAccessory") } .matchedTransitionSource(id: "tabViewBottomAccessoryTransition", in: namespace) } } }

I’m facing an issue in our native iOS app that occurs specifically on iOS 26.1 (not observed on any lower versions). When I update a @State field value, the UI does not reflect the change as expected. The @State variable updates internally, but the view does not re-render. This behaviour started after upgrading to iOS 26.1. Works fine on iOS 26.0 and earlier versions. Has anyone else encountered this issue or found a workaround? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

In iOS 26, when using the liquid glass and the custom clear mode, the pictures of the widgets all display as gray squares and cannot show the actual images anymore. What should I do to display them?

I need to create a Mac application using Objective-C. The application has to use PHPickerViewController to provide user a familiar interface to pick photos. Here is the Objective-C code that used to present the photo picker. //ViewController.h #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h> #import <PhotosUI/PhotosUI.h> @interface ViewController : NSViewController<PHPickerViewControllerDelegate> @property (nonatomic, weak) IBOutlet NSImageView *myImageView; @end // ViewController.m @implementation ViewController PHPickerViewController* pickerViewController = nil; - (void)pickPhotos { PHPickerConfiguration *config = [[PHPickerConfiguration alloc] init]; config.selectionLimit = 0; // Allow multiple selections config.filter = [PHPickerFilter imagesFilter]; // Filter for images pickerViewController = [[PHPickerViewController alloc] initWithConfiguration:config]; pickerViewController.preferredContentSize = NSMakeSize(800, 600); pickerViewController.delegate = self; // Set the delegate to handle selection [self presentViewControllerAsModalWindow:pickerViewController]; - (IBAction)clicked:(id)sender { NSLog(@"Button Clicked"); [self pickPhotos]; } - (void)picker:(PHPickerViewController *)picker didFinishPicking:(NSArray<PHPickerResult *> *)results { if (pickerViewController) { [picker dismissViewController:pickerViewController]; } } @end Can you please guide me to show the photo picker to a bigger size?

As the title says, when I try to add a Toolbar with a Button to my NavigationSplitView I get a warning about satisfying constraints. Here is a minimal reproducible example: import SwiftUI @main struct ViewTestingApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { NavigationSplitView { Text("Sidebar") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Button { debugPrint("Hello World!") } label: { Label("", systemImage: "flame") } } } } content: { Text("Content") } detail: { Text("Detail") } } } } This is the specific warning I get: Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints. Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want. Try this: (1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect; (2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it. (Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, refer to the documentation for the UIView property translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints) ( "<NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraint:0x600002164960 h=--& v=--& _TtCC5UIKit19NavigationButtonBar15ItemWrapperView:0x100f80fa0.width == 0 (active)>", "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x600002160370 _TtCC5UIKit19NavigationButtonBar15ItemWrapperView:0x100f80fa0.leading == _UIButtonBarButton:0x100f7d360.leading (active)>", "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x6000021603c0 H:[_UIButtonBarButton:0x100f7d360]-(0)-| (active, names: '|':_TtCC5UIKit19NavigationButtonBar15ItemWrapperView:0x100f80fa0 )>", "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x600002160050 'IB_Leading_Leading' H:|-(2)-[_UIModernBarButton:0x100f7e6c0] (active, names: '|':_UIButtonBarButton:0x100f7d360 )>", "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x6000021600a0 'IB_Trailing_Trailing' H:[_UIModernBarButton:0x100f7e6c0]-(2)-| (active, names: '|':_UIButtonBarButton:0x100f7d360 )>" ) Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint <NSLayoutConstraint:0x6000021600a0 'IB_Trailing_Trailing' H:[_UIModernBarButton:0x100f7e6c0]-(2)-| (active, names: '|':_UIButtonBarButton:0x100f7d360 )> Make a symbolic breakpoint at UIViewAlertForUnsatisfiableConstraints to catch this in the debugger. The methods in the UIConstraintBasedLayoutDebugging category on UIView listed in <UIKitCore/UIView.h> may also be helpful.

Hi team, I've been trying to extend the animation when we call the function setVisibleMapRect, we can use UIView.animate to lengthen the animation time, but one thing that I found not working is that when I extend the animation to 3, 5, or 10 seconds, and the changes is still ongoing and there's a gesture performed, the map will completely ignore the gesture. Causing the map to be having this kind of like "delayed" or "freeze" experience for the user. The map will immediately move to the final rect and ignores the user gesture. I've been checking on this problem for a week now and I'm quite stuck. I've tried using CADisplayLink to manually animate the camera per system fresh rate, it works very well, I can stop the camera movement anytime there are touches, but it causes the resource CPU spikes. Removing the animation layers recursively on sublayers and subviews also doesn't help. While storing the animation into a UIViewPropertyAnimator and use stopAnimation will always ignores user first interactions too while also animating the camera to the final position (which is not expected).
