I am a developer on an enterprise application. Our team just updated our pipeline to build our app on the iOS 18 SDK instead of the 17.4 SDK and this has caused a lot of our ui elements to change and several crashes within the app resulting in just the simple error message "Swift runtime failure: unhandled C++ / Objective-C exception". Why is just updating the SDK causing all these issues? Is there anyway to keep the previous version or will we have to go component by component to fix the constraints and crashes? These issues seem to be happening to our users on iOS 18 and beyond.

Has anyone gotten custom buttons to work on top of tvOS Map()? I've tried many variations of FocusState focusSection .defaultFocus() and as soon as the map appears at startup the buttons never get focus again. They are on a ZStack over the map. I could post code but truthfully nothing works for me. I'm wondering if anyone has successfully put focusable buttons on top of the map view.

I have a DocumentGroup working with a FileDocument, and that's fine. However, when someone creates a new document I want them to have to immediately save it. This is the behavior on ipadOS and iOS from what I can understand (you select where before the file is created). There seems to be no way to do this on macOS? I basically want to have someone: create a new document enter some basic data hit "create" which saves the file then lets the user start editing it (1), (2), and (4) are done and fairly trivial. (3) seems impossible, though...? This really only needs to support macOS but any pointers would be appreciated.

We have SwiftUI AttributedString with links. But these links are inaccessible via automation scripts. The text is visible to the automation scripts as XCUIElementTypeStaticText and there is no provision to access the links within. Is there any workaround available for this case ?

My assumption has always been that [NSApp runModalForWindow:] runs a modal window in NSModalPanelRunLoopMode. However, while -[NSApplication _doModalLoop:peek:] seems to use NSModalPanelRunLoopMode when pulling out the next event to process via nextEventMatchingMask:untilDate:inMode:dequeue:, the current runloop doesn't seem to be running in that mode, so during -[NSApplication(NSEventRouting) sendEvent:] of the modal-specific event, NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop.currentMode returns kCFRunLoopDefaultMode. From what I can tell, this means that any event processing code that e.g. uses [NSTimer addTimer:forMode:] based on the current mode will register a timer that will not fire until the modal session ends. Is this a bug? Or if not, is the correct way to run a modal session something like this? [NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop performInModes:@[NSModalPanelRunLoopMode] block:^{ [NSApp runModalForWindow:window]; }]; [NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop limitDateForMode:NSModalPanelRunLoopMode]; Alternatively, if the mode of the runloop should stay the same, I've seen suggestions to run modal sessions like this: NSModalSession session = [NSApp beginModalSessionForWindow:theWindow]; for (;;) { if ([NSApp runModalSession:session] != NSModalResponseContinue) break; [NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop limitDateForMode:NSModalPanelRunLoopMode]; } [NSApp endModalSession:session]; Which would work around the fact that the timer/callbacks were scheduled in the "wrong" mode. But running NSModalPanelRunLoopMode during a modal session seems a bit scary. Won't that potentially break the modality?

There are two issues about SFSafariViewController. After rotate from landscape to portrait, The topAnchor is destroyed. The specified bar tint color and control tint color are invalidated.(Returns to system color) Regarding the second issue, I’ve found a temporary workaround. Override the viewWillTransition(to:with:) and keep it empty. Don't call super.viewWillTransition(to:with:). Since UIKit is not open source, I don’t know the exact cause, but I found something that could be the key to the issue. So, I reported it to Apple Feedback Assistant. You can check the details and the sample project in the GitHub repository below. https://github.com/ueunli/SafariViewer

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled to share that I'm conducting a field research as part of my final university project, focused on iOS architecture. The goal is to dive deeper into the best practices, challenges, and trends in the iOS development world. To make this research truly impactful, I need your help! If you're an iOS developer, I’d love it if you could take a few minutes to answer a short survey. Your insights and experiences will be invaluable for my research, and I greatly appreciate your support! Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdf9cacfA7my1hnlazyl7uJraa2oTsQ7dJBWvFtZ_4vbYenRA/viewform?usp=send_form Thank you so much in advance for helping me out—feel free to share this post with others who might also be interested. Let’s build something amazing together! 💡✨

My app inputs electrical waveforms from an IV485B39 2 channel USB device using an AVAudioSession. Before attempting to acquire data I make sure the input device is available as follows: AVAudiosSession *audioSession = [AVAudioSession sharedInstance]; [audioSession setCategory :AVAudioSessionCategoryRecord error:&err]; NSArray *inputs = [audioSession availableInputs]; I have been using this code for about 10 years. My app is scriptable so a user can acquire data from the IV485B29 multiple times with various parameter settings (sampling rates and sample duration). Recently the scripts have been failing to complete and what I have notice that when it fails the list of available inputs is missing the USBAudio input. While debugging I have noticed that when working properly the list of inputs includes both the internal microphone as well as the USBAudio device as shown below. VIB_TimeSeriesViewController:***Available inputs = ( "<AVAudioSessionPortDescription: 0x11584c7d0, type = MicrophoneBuiltIn; name = iPad Microphone; UID = Built-In Microphone; selectedDataSource = Front>", "<AVAudioSessionPortDescription: 0x11584cae0, type = USBAudio; name = 485B39 200095708064650803073200616; UID = AppleUSBAudioEngine:Digiducer.com :485B39 200095708064650803073200616:000957 200095708064650803073200616:1; selectedDataSource = (null)>" ) But when it fails I only see the built in microphone. VIB_TimeSeriesViewController:***Available inputs = ( "<AVAudioSessionPortDescription: 0x11584cef0, type = MicrophoneBuiltIn; name = iPad Microphone; UID = Built-In Microphone; selectedDataSource = Front>" ) If I only see the built in microphone I immediately repeat the three lines of code and most of the "inputs" contains both the internal microphone and the USBAudioDevice AVAudiosSession *audioSession = [AVAudioSession sharedInstance]; [audioSession setCategory :AVAudioSessionCategoryRecord error:&err]; NSArray *inputs = [audioSession availableInputs]; This fix always works on my M2 iPadPro and my iPhone 14 but some of my customers have older devices and even with 3 tries they still get faults about 1 in 10 tries. I rolled back my code to a released version from about 12 months ago where I know we never had this problem and compiled it against the current libraries and the problem still exists. I assume this is a problem caused by a change in the AVAudioSession framework libraries. I need to find a way to work around the issue or get the library fixed.

Hi, A class initialized as the initial value of an @State property is not released until the whole View disappears. Every subsequent instance deinitializes properly. Am I missing something, or is this a known issue? struct ContentView: View { // 1 - init first SimpleClass instance @State var simpleClass: SimpleClass? = SimpleClass(name: "First") var body: some View { VStack { Text("Hello, world!") } .task { try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(2)) // 2 - init second SimpleClass instance and set as new @State // "First" should deinit simpleClass = SimpleClass(name: "Second") // 3 - "Second" deinit just fine simpleClass = nil } } } class SimpleClass { let name: String init(name: String) { print("init: \(name)") self.name = name } deinit { print("deinit: \(name)") } } output: init: First init: Second deinit: Second Thanks

I have a macOS application developed in SwiftUI. It's a document-based application. I know how to hide the Show Tab Bar command under View. I don't want to hide it. I always want to show tabs. I wonder how to enable this command programmatically such that the document window always has the + button to the right. Thanks.

I want to truncate text from head with max 2 lines. I try the following code import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State var content: String = "Hello world! wef wefwwfe wfewe weweffwefwwfwe wfwe" var body: some View { VStack { Text(content) .lineLimit(nil) .truncationMode(.head) .frame(height: 50) Button { content += content } label: { Text("Double") } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) } .frame(width: 200, height: 1000) .padding() } } #Preview { ContentView() } It show result like this, this is not what I want.

I’m working with AppIntents and AppEntity to integrate my app’s data model into Shortcuts and Siri. In the example below, I define a custom FoodEntity and use it as a @Parameter in an AppIntent. I’m providing dynamic options for this parameter via an optionsProvider. In the Shortcuts app, everything works as expected: when the user runs the shortcut, they get a list of food options (from the dynamic provider) to select from. However, in Siri, the experience is different. Instead of showing the list of options, Siri asks the user to say the name of the food, and then tries to match it using EntityStringQuery. I originally assumed this might be a design decision to allow hands-free use with voice, but I found that if you use an AppEnum instead, Siri does present a tappable list of options. So now I’m wondering: why the difference? Is there a way to get the @Parameter with AppEntity + optionsProvider to show a tappable list in Siri like it does in Shortcuts or with an AppEnum? Any clarification on how EntityQuery.suggestedEntities() and DynamicOptionsProvider interact with Siri would be appreciated! struct CaloriesShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider { static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { AppShortcut( intent: AddCaloriesInteractive(), phrases: [ "Add to \(.applicationName)" ], shortTitle: "Calories", systemImageName: "fork" ) } } struct AddCaloriesInteractive: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Add to calories log" static var description = IntentDescription("Add Calories using Shortcuts.") static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = false static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Calorie Entry SUMMARY") } var displayRepresentation: DisplayRepresentation { DisplayRepresentation(stringLiteral:"Add to calorie log") } @Dependency private var persistenceManager: PersistenceManager @Parameter(title: LocalizedStringResource("Food"), optionsProvider: FoodEntityOptions()) var foodEntity: FoodEntity @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog { return .result(dialog: .init("Added \(foodEntity.name) to calorie log")) } } struct FoodEntity: AppEntity { static var defaultQuery = FoodEntityQuery() @Property var name: String @Property var calories: Int init(name: String, calories: Int) { self.name = name self.calories = calories } static var typeDisplayRepresentation: TypeDisplayRepresentation { TypeDisplayRepresentation(name: "Calorie Entry") } static var typeDisplayName: LocalizedStringResource = "Calorie Entry" var displayRepresentation: AppIntents.DisplayRepresentation { DisplayRepresentation(title: .init(stringLiteral: name), subtitle: "\(calories)") } var id: String { return name } } struct FoodEntityQuery: EntityQuery { func entities(for identifiers: [FoodEntity.ID]) async throws -> [FoodEntity] { var result = [FoodEntity]() for identifier in identifiers { if let entity = FoodDatabase.allEntities().first(where: { $0.id == identifier }) { result.append(entity) } } return result } func suggestedEntities() async throws -> [FoodEntity] { return FoodDatabase.allEntities() } } extension FoodEntityQuery: EntityStringQuery { func entities(matching string: String) async throws -> [FoodEntity] { return FoodDatabase.allEntities().filter({$0.name.localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare(string) == .orderedSame}) } } struct FoodEntityOptions: DynamicOptionsProvider { func results() async throws -> ItemCollection<FoodEntity> { ItemCollection { ItemSection("Section 1") { for entry in FoodDatabase.allEntities() { entry } } } } } struct FoodDatabase { // Fake data static func allEntities() -> [FoodEntity] { [ FoodEntity(name: "Orange", calories: 2), FoodEntity(name: "Banana", calories: 2) ] } }

I have a view with some buttons, and add 2 gestures using simultaneously. My app works well when built with XCode less than 16, or run on iOS less than 18.0. Example code is below: VStack(spacing: 0) { Button { print("button tapped") } label: { Rectangle() .foregroundColor(.red) } .frame(height: 100) } .gesture( DragGesture(minimumDistance: 0) .onEnded { value in print("single tap") } .simultaneously(with: TapGesture(count: 2).onEnded { print("double tap") } ) ) .frame(width: 200, height: 200) .border(Color.purple) I expect the action on Button should be recognized and print out button tapped, but only single tap and double tap are recognized

Hi, I have been trying to subscribe to brightnessDidChangeNotification (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiscreen/brightnessdidchangenotification) with my code: var publisher = NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: UIScreen.brightnessDidChangeNotification) .map { _ -> Double in return UIScreen.main.brightness } But it does seem that no such event is fired on Mac Catalyst 15.5. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiscreen/brightnessdidchangenotification claims that API is available since 13.1. Could anybody tell me if I'm doing something wrong or if the API is not supported at the moment? Thank you!

The SwiftUI Playground code below demonstrates that a .jpeg image can be read and written to the iOS file system. While, a.png image can only be read; the writing request appears to be ignored. Can anyone please tell me how to code to save a .png image using SwiftUI to the iOS file system. Code: import SwiftUI import UniformTypeIdentifiers /* (Copied from Playground 'Help' menu popup.) UIImage Summary An object that manages image data in your app. You use image objects to represent image data of all kinds, and the UIImage class is capable of managing data for all image formats supported by the underlying platform. Image objects are immutable, so you always create them from existing image data, such as an image file on disk or programmatically created image data. An image object may contain a single image or a sequence of images for use in an animation. You can use image objects in several different ways: Assign an image to a UIImageView object to display the image in your interface. Use an image to customize system controls such as buttons, sliders, and segmented controls. Draw an image directly into a view or other graphics context. Pass an image to other APIs that might require image data. Although image objects support all platform-native image formats, it’s recommended that you use PNG or JPEG files for most images in your app. Image objects are optimized for reading and displaying both formats, and those formats offer better performance than most other image formats. Because the PNG format is lossless, it’s especially recommended for the images you use in your app’s interface.

Hi Team, when launching an ApplePay session from a 3rd party browser where we get the QR code popup - is it possible to affect the popup's language? We are setting the button's language via locale parameter, but when the QR code pop's up it does not respect this setting (seems like it respects browser language). Button in Arabic Corresponding popup Browser language Arabic Coresponding popup I was unable to find anything in the documentation - could you please either point me to the relevant documentation or confirm/deny that it is possible to request a language for the popup via tjr javascript API? Kind regards Tomas

When I present a view controller, whose view is a SwiftUI View, via presentAsModalWindow(_:) the presented window is no longer centered horizontally to the screen, but rather its origin is there. I know this issue occurs for macOS 15.2+, but can't tell if it is from 15.0+. I couldn't find any documentation on why was this changed. Here's an example code that represents my architecture: class RootViewController: NSViewController { private lazy var button: NSButton = NSButton( title: "Present", target: self, action: #selector(presentView)) override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Add button to tree } @objc func presentView() { presentAsModalWindow(PresentedViewController()) } } class PresentedViewController: NSViewController { override loadView() { view = NSHostingView(rootView: MyView()) } } struct MyView: View { /* impl */ }

Dear all, Sorry if the topic has already been commented but I could not be able to find it in over 10,000 picks using the forum search field... My problem is that with any NSTextField in my app, a click will result in a memory leak. There is no code attached, just bindings to NSNumber properties. How can I fix this ? Thanks for your help. Best regards Chris

Subject: SwiftUI Gesture Conflict in iOS 18: Simultaneous Recognition of Drag and Tap Gestures Description: In SwiftUI on iOS 18 and above, we've identified an issue with gesture handling that affects user experience. When implementing .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()), the system incorrectly recognizes and processes both drag and tap gestures concurrently, resulting in unintended behavior. Technical Details: Environment: SwiftUI, iOS 18+ Issue: Simultaneous recognition of horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures Current Behavior: Both vertical and horizontal scrolling occur simultaneously when using .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Expected Behavior: Gestures should be properly disambiguated to prevent concurrent scrolling in multiple directions Impact: This behavior significantly impacts user experience, particularly in custom carousel implementations and other UI components that rely on precise gesture handling. The simultaneous recognition of both gestures creates a confusing and unpredictable interaction pattern. Steps to Reproduce: Create a SwiftUI view with horizontal scrolling (e.g., custom carousel) Implement .simultaneousGesture(DragGesture()) Add tap gesture recognition to child views Run on iOS 18 Attempt to scroll horizontally Observed Result: Both horizontal dragging and vertical scrolling/tapping are recognized and processed simultaneously, creating an inconsistent user experience. Expected Result: The system should properly disambiguate between horizontal drag gestures and vertical scroll/tap gestures, allowing only one type of gesture to be recognized at a time based on the user's intent. Please let me know if you need any additional information or reproduction steps.
