Hi, I have an existing Mac app on the App Store with a couple of widgets as part of the app. I want to now add a new widget to the WidgetBundle. When I build the updated app with Xcode, and then run the updated app, the widgets list doesn't seem to get updated in Notification Center or in the WidgetKit Simulator. I do have the App Store version installed in the /Applications folder as well, so there might be some conflict. What's the trick to getting the widgets list to run the debug version?

In keyboard shortcuts this buttons at the bottom are overlappin. Any one else?

When my CPMapButton is selected/focused, I would like to be able to provide a focusedImage to correctly show the button when the blue focus is shown. Currently I have: What do I need to do to create an image that works more like the panning interface buttons?

I have added multiple status icons to my project, in the form of .icon files created with Icon Composer. The main app icon works, but the status icons are not working. I am attempting to load the images from the asset catalog using NSImage imageNamed:, and apply them to the NSApp dockTile using NSGlassEffectContainerView. I don't even know if that attempt is going to work, as I never get past the stage of NSImage loading the icons. Maybe someone on the forums knows what to do there? I'd be willing to use one of my coding support incidents to work through this if necessary, as my two incidents will expire as my subscription rolls over in August anyway. My project lives at https://github.com/losnoco/cog/, and the Tahoe attempt WIP lives in the wip.tahoe branch, with the latest commit as of this post being the attempt to adapt the Dock Icon generation. I'd love to know if I can adapt this easily. I'm also still trying to support existing non-Glass custom .png icons the user can add to their profile folder with buttons in the preferences, as well as supporting legacy status icons on pre-Tahoe installs. I also try to add a progress bar to the dock tile view when the app is processing something at length.

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 am using live activity in my app. Functionality is start, update & end events are started from the server. There is one interaction button added using app intent in live activity widget. That button needs to update widget ui locally using activity kit. Issue is when os receives first start event push then update ui works fine and reflecting on live activity widget but when update notification receives by os after 1 mins then action button stops updating the ui locally. Can anyone please add some suggestions to fix this.

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.

I would like to have different fill colors in my chart. What I want to achieve is that if the values drop below 0 the fill color should be red. If they are above the fill color should be red. My code looks as follows: import SwiftUI import Charts struct DataPoint: Identifiable {     let id: UUID = UUID()     let x: Int     let y: Int } struct AlternatingChartView: View {          enum Gradients {         static let greenGradient = LinearGradient(gradient: Gradient(colors: [.green, .white]), startPoint: .top, endPoint: .bottom)         static let blueGradient = LinearGradient(gradient: Gradient(colors: [.white, .blue]), startPoint: .top, endPoint: .bottom)     }          let data: [DataPoint] = [         DataPoint(x: 1, y: 10),         DataPoint(x: 2, y: -5),         DataPoint(x: 3, y: 20),         DataPoint(x: 4, y: -8),         DataPoint(x: 5, y: 15),     ]               var body: some View {         Chart {             ForEach(data) { data in                 AreaMark(                     x: .value("Data Point", data.x),                     y: .value("amount", data.y))                 .interpolationMethod(.catmullRom)                 .foregroundStyle(data.y < 0 ? Color.red : Color.green)                                  LineMark(                 x: .value("Data Point", data.x),                 y: .value("amount", data.y))                 .interpolationMethod(.catmullRom)                 .foregroundStyle(Color.black)                 .lineStyle(StrokeStyle.init(lineWidth: 4))                              }         }         .frame(height: 200)     } } #Preview {     AlternatingChartView() } The result looks like this: I also tried using foregroundStyle(by:) and chartForegroundStyleScale(_:) but the result was, that two separate areas had been drawn. One for the below and one for the above zero datapoints. So, what would be the right approach to have two different fill colors?

In the header for UIViewController, the method dismissViewControllerAnimated is declared like this: - (void)dismissViewControllerAnimated: (BOOL)flag completion: (void (^ __nullable)(void))completion NS_SWIFT_DISABLE_ASYNC API_AVAILABLE(ios(5.0)); NS_SWIFT_DISABLE_ASYNC means that there's no async version exposed like there would normally be of a method that exposes a completion handler. Why is this? And is it unwise / unsafe for me to make my own async version of it using a continuation? My use case is that I want a method that will sequentially dismiss all view controllers presented by a root view controller. So I could have this extension on UIViewController: extension UIViewController { func dismissAsync(animated: Bool) async { await withCheckedContinuation { continuation in self.dismiss(animated: animated) { continuation.resume() } } } func dismissPresentedViewControllers() async { while self.topPresentedViewController != self { await self.topPresentedViewController.dismissAsync(animated: true) } } var topPresentedViewController: UIViewController { var result = self while result.presentedViewController != nil { result = result.presentedViewController! } return result }

I am currently developing an AR experience using ARKit with SceneKit and am looking to implement functionality that enables: Zooming into the AR camera feed, ideally leveraging the ultra-wide or telephoto lenses available on supported devices. Macro-style focus capabilities, allowing users to view and interact with virtual content closely aligned with small or nearby real-world objects (within a few centimeters). My objective is to ensure that ARKit continues to render the scene accurately while enabling a zoomed-in view or macro-level focus for better detail visibility and alignment. Could you please advise on: Whether ARKit currently supports camera zoom or allows access to macro or ultra-wide cameras within an ARSession. Limitations or considerations when using multi-camera setups in conjunction with ARKit. Any guidance or references to documentation or sample code would be greatly appreciated.

Hello togehter, i do have the following question. If I have my App run in landscape mode and a sheet view get's called, will it be possible to switch automatically from landscape mode in portrait mode and fix this device orientation? Once the sheet view get's dismissed or closed, the original view will come back and the device orientation shall switch back to landscape mode. Thanks you so much for your help!

Hi Apple Developer Team, In my tvOS app built with SwiftUI, I have a tab-based interface with several sections. The first tab (index 0) is the Home tab. Other tabs include Contact, WiFi, Welcome, etc. I want to handle the remote's Menu / Back button (.onExitCommand) so that: If the user is on any tab other than Home (tabs 1, 2, 3, etc.), pressing the Menu button takes them back to the Home tab. If the user is already on the Home tab, then pressing the TV/Home button (not Menu) behaves as expected — suspending or exiting the app (handled by the system, no code involved). Here's a simplified version of what I implemented: .onExitCommand { if selectedTab != 0 { selectedTab = 0 focusedTab = 0 } else { // Let system handle the exit when user presses the TV/Home button } } This behavior ensures users don’t accidentally exit the app when they're browsing other tabs, and provides a consistent navigation experience. Question: Is this an acceptable and App Store-compliant use of .onExitCommand on tvOS? I'm not calling exit(0) or trying to force-terminate the app — just using .onExitCommand for in-app navigation purposes. Any official guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Prashant

Hey, I've been having a problem with scroll views in combination with the .geometryGroup() modifier. I have filed a Feedback (FB17698293) but I also wanted to post this here in case someone maybe has a better workaround for the problem. Problem Whenever you conditionally insert a ScrollView inside a VStack that is modified with a .geometryGroup() modifier, the scroll view content offset resets itself after the insertion animation is done, even if you started scrolling inside the scroll view during the animation and haven't let go of the screen. This happens consistently and is fully reproducible (see below), both using a simulator and a real device. Unfortunately, this is a very annoying glitch that ruins a lot of cool UX components that rely on .geometryGroup(). The weird thing is that the glitch entirely disappears, if you add a simple, non-zero (but greater than 1) .padding() modifier to the VStack (.padding().geometryGroup()). I have no idea why this fixes the glitch, but it does. However, adding a padding is not feasible in many situations, so this workaround is not ideal. Steps to reproduce Launch the code below (using a simulator or a real device) and tap "Toggle Expansion" to insert the scroll view. As the view is animating in, drag the scroll content and hold it scrolled away from the top. Wait for the animation to complete. The scroll view will reset the content offset, even though the drag gesture is still active (i.e. you haven't lifted your finger to release the scroll view) On a real device, this sometimes even leads to an even worse visual artifact where the scroll view is rendered twice for a few frames; once with the correct offset, and once with the reset offset. I wanted to include a link to a gif/video showing the glitch, but it tells me that imgur is not allowed on the forums. Expected Behavior I want the scroll view to respect the content offset, even if I started changing it mid-animation. Xcode Version I am using Xcode 16.4 (16F6) but this problem has been occurring since the .geometryGroup() modifier has been release. I was only now able to pinpoint this problem exactly, so I'm filing this feedback. Code The entire code that reproduces the problem: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var isExpanded: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { if isExpanded { ScrollView { Text(loremIpsum) } } Button("Toggle Expansion") { isExpanded.toggle() } } // .padding(10) // Adding a non-zero padding makes the glitch disappear .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .geometryGroup() .animation(.default, value: isExpanded) } } #Preview { ContentView().preferredColorScheme(.dark) } // MARK: - Mock Data let loremIpsum = """ Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt \ ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco \ laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla \ pariatur.

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.

We are experiencing an issue with session sharing on iOS and would appreciate your guidance. We operate and control our own OpenID Connect (OIDC) server. Our iOS application uses ASWebAuthenticationSession to authenticate users. We're unable to get the authentication session to be shared between the Safari app and the app's ASWebAuthenticationSession. This results in users having to re-authenticate despite being logged in via Safari. We've attempted various configurations related to cookie SameSite settings. These adjustments resolved the session sharing issue on Android using Chrome Custom Tabs. However, no changes we've tried have enabled session sharing to work as expected on iOS. According to documentation from Apple, Microsoft, Okta, and Auth0, session sharing between Safari and ASWebAuthenticationSession should work. Question: Are there any additional settings, configurations, or platform limitations we should be aware of that could impact session sharing on iOS? Where else can we look to resolve this issue?

I am attempting to start my application on iOS 26 with Xcode 26. It uses an UISplitViewController that is instantiated through a Storyboard. It uses the "Unspecified" style, which is a holdover from a previous version of iOS. I'm not sure if this is a bug in iOS, or if I am supposed to change it now. The viewControllers property only has the primary view controller on iOS, although it has the primary and detail view controllers on iPadOS. When I start the application on iOS 18.5, it has both primary and detail controllers on both platforms.

We were using below delegate methods from QuickLook to get modified PDF file URL after the sketching But we are not able see the multi line text properly laid out on PDF and part of text missing. Same time Other pencil kit tools are working as expected. `func previewController(_ controller: QLPreviewController, didSaveEditedCopyOf previewItem: QLPreviewItem, at modifiedContentsURL: URL) func previewController(_ controller: QLPreviewController, didUpdateContentsOf previewItem: any QLPreviewItem)` We tested all code in iOS 18.2. Please let us know if the text edited URL on PDF can be retrieved in any possible way without tampering text

Hello, I was wondering if someone could clear-up my thinking here. e.g. consider the code below... It has a rootView with a navlink to a childView which in turn has navlinks to GrandchildViews. The root view uses basic navLInks NavigationLink{View} label: {View} The child view uses type-based navLinks navigationLink(value:) {View} and .navigationDestination(for:) {View} I would expect the basic navlinks to work in the root view and the type-based ones to work in the child view. However it appears that both are active when one taps on a link in the child view. e.g. User actions: Start -> RootView is only view on the stack -> (tap on ‘Child View’) -> ChildView is top of the stack -> tap on ‘Alice’ -> a second ChildView is top of the stack with a GrandchildView underneath…. Why does this happen, why are the basic links also applied to the childView's links? Thanks. struct Thing: Identifiable, Hashable { let id = UUID() let name: String } struct RootView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { List { NavigationLink { ChildView() } label: { Label("Child View", systemImage: "figure.and.child.holdinghands") } NavigationLink { Text("Hello") } label: { Label("Another navLink item in the list", systemImage: "circle") } } .padding() } } } struct ChildView: View { private var things = [ Thing(name: "Alice"), Thing(name: "Bob"), Thing(name: "Charlie"), ] var body: some View { Text("This is the child view") List { ForEach(things) { thing in NavigationLink(value: thing) { Text(thing.name) } } } .navigationTitle("Child View") .navigationDestination(for: Thing.self) { thing in GrandchildView(thing: thing) } } } struct GrandchildView: View { let thing: Thing var body: some View { Text("This is the GrandchildView: \(thing.name)") } }

Hello. I use NavigationStack for navigating in app. I have 4 screens - A, B, C, D. In some moment I have path [A, B, C] for NavigationStack. After user did action I should show path [A, B, D]. In other hands I should replace screen C with screen D. struct HomeView: View { @ObservedObject var viewModel: HomeViewModel var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $viewModel.path) { ContentView() .navigationDestination(for: HomeViewModel.Path.self) { destination in // B, C, D views here... } } .navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle()) } } Solution looks like same as for UIKit. I replaced last item in stack. It works, but "push" animation broke. var updatedPath = self.path updatedPath.removeLast() updatedPath.append(newPathItem) self.path = updatedPath I found suggest in Internet that you can remove view from stack after some delay. But it has some magic. For example 1 second delay works properly on iOS 18, but cause crash on iOS 16. 1 millisecond delay works on iOS 16, but sometimes didn't. self.path.append(newPathItem) DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + .milliseconds(1000)) { UIView.setAnimationsEnabled(false) self.path.remove(at: self.path.count - 2) DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + .milliseconds(1)) { UIView.setAnimationsEnabled(true) } } It is easy task to replace current top screen in UINavigationController of UIKit. How I can do it properly in SwiftUI and save animation?

Hello, In a new app I am working on I noticed the FamilyActivityTitleView that displays "ApplicationToken" has wrong (black) color when phone is set to light mode but app is using dark mode via override. We display user's selected apps and the labels are rendered correctly at first, but then when user updates selection with FamilyActivityPicker, then those newly added apps are rendered with black titles. The problem goes away when I close the screen and open it again. It also doesn't happen when phone is set to dark theme. I am currently noticing the issue on iOS 18.4.1. I have tried various workarounds like forcing white text in the custom label style, forcing re-render with custom .id value but nothing helped. Is there any way how to fix this?
