As the title indicates the problem, the large title is shown but the small title in Navitation Bar view is not shown when scrolled up with iOS26 beta7.
It works with iOS18 or earlier.
Is this iOS26 bug?

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?

ello there. I just installed IOS 26 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. But i think i found a Bug with a Widget where you have an overview of all devices and their battery. In IOS 18 when we used the Dark Theme (Dark Icons etc.) this widget was dark aswell (look at the picture) and now in IOs everything is dark except this widget. Its kinda annoying…
With the new ios 26 beta 3 helps some stabillty and performance issues but most of the liquid glass has been removed or made very frosty look; and it defeats the whole purpose of a big redesign, and even thought the changes are because of readability and contrast complaints it should not take away liquid glass design. I think apple should consider adding a toggle or choice to choose if they would want a more frosted look or a more liquid glass look the the original plan.
The newest iOS 26 CarPlay upgrade seems more like a downgrade with vehicles from Subaru with the 11.6 inch vertical infotainment display.
Such a big screen, but only one widget shows at a time additionally, prior to this iOS update we had three lines of apps on the main page now only two.
also to be noted album art size on all music streaming and podcast apps is extremely small about half the size of what it originally was prior to this update
yes, I tried turning on and off the screen optimization setting and CarPlay. It did not do anything.
Hello,
You are developing iOS 26. I hope you will fix the issue where the AṀ/PM is missing from the Time Display.
Thanks
I'm coding an iPhone app using Swift and I'm getting this scoping error. Attached.
Below is the sample css code where I render a web page in my webview screens fonts became too small after 18.4 and its so hard to read when I launch my app . Any workarounds to address this issue
.sg-labels-canvas {
font-size: 15px;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Helvetica Neue', Roboto, sans-serif;
font-style: normal;
}
I think in the next updates of IOS 26 that Apple should add a setting to enable/disable Liquid Glass because we all know that everybody doesnt like the new update.
Hi,
in the Human Interface Guidelines, Apple writes:
Avoid using a segmented control in a toolbar. Toolbar items act on the current screen — they don’t let people switch contexts like segmented controls do.
Along with this image:

I'm confused by this example. The screenshot seems to be showing a segmented control in a toolbar.
Is this saying that the Phone app's All/Missed toggle is different from a segmented control? Under iOS 26 it seems to take a different style compared to a regular segmented control. If so, which component is used to create this filter?
Could you please clarify the guidelines? Thank you.
Why?
Why stop there? (Why not ipod.and.imacg3? applenewton.and.vision.pro?)
I get why the older ipod symbols exist but these new pairings are odd.
If anyone ever sees these restricted symbols in the wild, or even just someone using a Vision Pro and an iPod (Touch) together in a way that's not contrived, please do let me know!
I'm using .glassEffect(.clear) on a transparent circle over a gradient background. While it's closer to clear than the plain glass effect, it't not really clear, like clear glass. Here is the code. Is there a glass effect that really looks like clear glass?
Circle()
.fill(.clear)
.frame(width: 180, height: 180)
.glassEffect(.clear)
Hello,
I have used CPPointOfInterestTemplate for displaying data and as user scrolls using the up/down arrow, I do not see any change in the map. Is there a way to highlight the POIs as the user scrolls through the list?
I need to use the map controls and zoom to check the markers on the map. Is it possible to set the zoom level of the map in CarPlay?
Pls suggest on the above queries
As someone who genuinely appreciated the Liquid Glass effect introduced in iOS 26 Beta 1–2, I am deeply disappointed by its reduction in Beta 3. Liquid Glass wasn’t just eye candy it gave iOS a unique identity, futuristic feel, and a visual soul.
Now, the UI looks flat, generic, and indistinguishable from other platforms. I feel Apple is stepping back from a bold vision due to readability complaints that could’ve been solved with an option or toggle not by removing the whole design language.
Please consider restoring the full Liquid Glass look, or at least offer a toggle so users who believe in Apple’s design language can choose it. Don’t let this innovation fade because of short-term complaints.
Why my app icon doesn't have effect liquid glass on ios26. My team dev still not upgrade to xcode26, so I have to export icon for them. And I don't see the effect like stroke of the detail.
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.
The problem is the same in all of my applications. To reproduce it, in iOS 26, set the dark mode in the Brightness and display settings and in Accessibility, Display and text size, activate Increase contrast and bold text. With these settings, all the controls will be surrounded by a thin white line. When in the app a keyboard is dispayed, the thin white line does not appears correctly around the keyboard like in the capture joined, it is present on top and partially on bottom but not on sides
Hey, everyone. I'm having an issue with my modal shadows when building for macOS. I've attached an image to show you what's going on.
I have a rounded corner window, and when the In-App Purchase overlay opens, the modal shadow of that rounded window is square (which doesn't make sense, and looks bad).
Can somebody please help me address this? I've tried searching high and low for a solution but I can't find anything :-(
I really appreciate you taking a look! -Logan
Hey there,
I redesigned my apps icons for Liquid Glass in the icon composer app. I have to say it's been a pleasure to use and my icons look stunning when rendered in the icon composer app, whatever rendering mode and context I've been testing.
But once in a developer release on my device (iOS 26 beta 3), the rendering is very disappointing. They look blurry, very far from what icon composer is showing.
I would like to know whether I have a design issue, or if the current state of the beta release is known to not render icon properly. I'm kind of panicking :)
I’m developing an app that includes a navigation bar with a centered title and a single right bar button item. I’ve noticed that when both the navigation bar title and the right bar button item’s title are relatively long, the navigation bar title becomes hidden.
This issue only occurs on iOS 26. When running the same code on iOS 18, the layout behaves as expected, with both elements visible.
Has anyone else experienced this behavior on iOS 26? Is this a known layout change or a possible bug?
