NSWindow objects with custom styleMask configurations seem to behave erratically in macOS Tahoe 26.3 RC.
For example an NSWindow is not resizable after issuing .styleMask.remove(.titled) or some NSWindow-s become totally unresponsive (the NSWindow becomes transparent to mouse events) with custom styleMask-s.
This is a radical change compared to how all previous macOS versions or the 26.3 beta3 worked and seriously affects apps that might use custom NSWindows - this includes some system utilities, OSD/HUD apps etc, actually breaking some apps.
Such fundamental compatibility altering changes should not be introduced in an RC stage (if this is intentional and not a bug) imho.

Hi,
I’m seeing a crash when running my app on iOS 18 simulators or devices using Xcode 26 beta 3.
My app’s minimum deployment target is iOS 17, and the crash does not happen when running from Xcode 16.4.
The crash occurs specifically at this line:
return UIStoryboard(name: storyboard.rawValue, bundle: nil)
.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: view.rawValue)
Crash Details:
** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidUnarchiveOperationException', reason: 'Could not instantiate class named _TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView_ because no class named _TtGC5UIKit17UICoreHostingViewVCS_21ToolbarVisualProvider8RootView_ was found; the class needs to be defined in source code or linked in from a library (ensure the class is part of the correct target)'
*** First throw call stack:
(0x191c3321c 0x18f0cdabc 0x191c91ea0 0x19d740774 0x19d740a18 0x19d740cac 0x194626680 0x194dbc784 0x19d740890 0x19d740cac 0x1949aadd8 0x19d740890 0x19d740a18 0x19d740cac 0x194802e24 0x1945f008c 0x194ed1808 0x107a8bfa0 0x107a8c05c 0x1945ec128 0x19d740890 0x19d740cac 0x1945eba60 0x19d740890 0x19d740a18 0x19d740cac 0x1945f07dc 0x1945eaea4 0x19492ee80 0x10763de00 0x1076e56fc 0x1076e5674 0x1076e5e04 0x19496108c 0x194f9b9a0 0x1949072c4 0x194f998cc 0x194f9af04 0x19445139c 0x19445ac28 0x194467508 0x1079afaec 0x1079aff5c 0x1944189a0 0x194417be4 0x1944114e4 0x194411404 0x194410ab4 0x19440c1e4 0x191b28a8c 0x191b288a4 0x191b28700 0x191b29080 0x191b2ac3c 0x1ded09454 0x19453d274 0x194508a28 0x1073564f4 0x1b89fff08)
terminating due to uncaught exception of type NSException
The crash occurs immediately at app launch, when attempting to load a storyboard-based UITabBarController.
Works as expected on:
Xcode 16.4 + iOS 18 (simulator/device)
Xcode 26 beta 3 + iOS 26 (simulator/device)
Running from Xcode 26 beta 3 onto iOS 18 simulators or devices and it immediate crash from the particular storyboard
Setup:
Xcode: 26 beta 3
macOS: 15.5
iOS Simulators: iOS 18.5
Minimum deployment target: iOS 17
UIKit-based app (not using SwiftUI)
No custom toolbars or host views in use explicitly
Is this a known compatibility issue when building with the iOS 26 SDK and running on iOS 18?
Are there any workarounds or recommendations for running apps targeting iOS 17+ on iOS 18 simulators when using Xcode 26?
UITextView crash when setting attributed text that contains substring ffi and attributedText contains NSFontAttributeName, NSForegroundColorAttributeName
Reproducible case:
UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc] init];
textView.attributedText = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"ffi" attributes:@{
NSParagraphStyleAttributeName: [self createParagraphOfLineHeight:20],
NSFontAttributeName: [UIFont systemFontOfSize:fontSize weight:UIFontWeightRegular],
NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.black
}];
I have noticed that in iOS 14 the UIPickerView has by default a light grey background on the selected Row like shown here.
https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/controls/pickers/
I noticed also that pickerView.showsSelectionIndicator is deprecated on iOS 14.
Is there a way to change the background color to white and add separators to achieve a pre iOS 14 UIPickerView style?
Thank you
I’m developing a share extension for iOS 26 with Xcode 26. When the extension’s sheet appears, it always shows a full white background, even though iOS 26 introduces a new “Liquid Glass” effect for partial sheets.
Expected:
The sheet background should use the iOS 26 glassmorphism effect as seen in full apps.
Actual behavior:
Custom sheets in my app get the glass effect, but the native system sheet in the share extension always opens as plain white.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a share extension using UIKit
Present any UIViewController as the main view
Set modalPresentationStyle = .pageSheet (or leave as default)
Observe solid white background, not glassmorphism
Sample code:
swift
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.backgroundColor = .clear
preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width, height: 300)
}
Troubleshooting attempted:
Tried adding UIVisualEffectView with system blur/materials
Removed all custom backgrounds
Set modalPresentationStyle explicitly
Questions:
Is it possible to enable or force the Liquid Glass effect in share extensions on iOS 26?
Is this a limitation by design or a potential bug?
Any workaround to make extension sheet backgrounds match system glass appearance?
In beta 2 using layer.cornerRadius on a UIEffectView with the UIGlassEffect allowed you to change the corner radius of the view. In beta 3, this no longer works. WWDC videos indicate the right way to do this is to set the cornerConfiguration on the UIEffectView, but that API doesn't seem to be available yet. At this time it doesn't seem like theres a way to have a glass view that isn't pill shaped.
I work on a universal app that targets both iPhone and iPad. Our iPad app currently requires full screen. When testing on the latest iPadOS 26 beta, we see the following warning printed to the console:
Update the Info.plist: 1) `UIRequiresFullScreen` will soon be ignored. 2) Support for all orientations will soon be required.
It will take a fair amount of effort to update our app to properly support presentation in a resizable window. We wanted to gauge how urgent this change is. Our testing has shown that iPadOS 26 supports our app in a non-resizable window.
Can someone from Apple provide any guidance as to how soon “soon” is? Will UIRequiresFullScreen be ignored in iPadOS 26? Will support for all orientations be required in iPadOS 26?
I'm using UIDocumentPickerViewController to open a url. Works fine in debug mode but version on the App Store is failing.
Code to create the document picker is like:
NSArray *theTypes = [UTType typesWithTag:@"docxtensionhere" tagClass:UTTagClassFilenameExtension conformingToType:nil];
UIDocumentPickerViewController *documentPicker = [[UIDocumentPickerViewController alloc]initForOpeningContentTypes:theTypes];
documentPicker.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:documentPicker animated:YES completion:nil];
So in debug mode this is all gravy. -documentPicker:didPickDocumentsAtURLs: passes back a URL and I can read the file.
In release mode I get a URL but my app is denied access to read the file. After inspecting some logging it appears the sandbox is not granting my app permission.
error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=257 "The file “Filename.fileextensionhere” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/comappleCloudDocs/Filename.fileextensionhere, NSUnderlyingError=0x2834c9da0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted"}}
--
If I'm doing something wrong with UIDocumentPickerViewController it is a real shame that permission is not being denied in Debug mode, as devs are more likely to catch in prior to release. Anyone know where I'm going wrong and if not have a workaround? Thanks in advance.
Is the Cancel button intentionally removed from UISearchBar (right side)?
Even when using searchController with navigationItem also.
showsCancelButton = true
doesn’t display the cancel button.
Also:
When tapping the clear ("x") button inside the search field, the search is getting canceled, and searchBarCancelButtonClicked(_:) is triggered (Generally it should only clear text, not cancel search).
If the search text is empty and I tap outside the search bar, the search is canceled.
Also when I have tableview in my controller(like recent searches) below search bar and if I try to tap when editing started, action is not triggered(verified in sample too). Just cancellation is happening.
In a split view controller, if the search is on the right side and I try to open the side panel, the search also gets canceled.
Are these behaviors intentional changes, beta issues, or are we missing something in implementation?
I have added a UICollectionViewCell to my storyboard, and I added a UILabel to my UICollectionViewCell in storyboard. I have created a cell registration using UICollectionView.CellRegistration and have implemented the cellProvider closure for the datasource which dequeue a collection view cell of type TapLabelCollectionViewCell(I have subclassed the cell in my storyboard to this class).
In my TapLabelCollectionViewCell, I am trying to set the tap gesture recogniser on the label, but the label appears nil, which I've connected using an @IBOutlet. Why is this and how can I fix it?
My code :
// UI View Controller:
class TapGridViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
tapGridCollectionView.collectionViewLayout = createLayout()
configureDataSource()
applySnapshot()
}
func configureDataSource() {
let cellRegistration = UICollectionView.CellRegistration<TapLabelCollectionViewCell, CellItem>(handler: {
(cell: TapLabelCollectionViewCell, indexPath: IndexPath, item: CellItem) in
cell.taplabel.text = String(item.labelCount)
})
dataSource = UICollectionViewDiffableDataSource(collectionView: tapGridCollectionView, cellProvider: { (collectionView: UICollectionView, indexPath: IndexPath, item: CellItem) in
let cell = collectionView.dequeueConfiguredReusableCell(using: cellRegistration, for: indexPath, item: item)
cell.delegate = self
cell.index = indexPath.row
return cell
})
}
}
// UI Collection View Cell:
protocol TapLabelCollectionViewCellDelegate: AnyObject {
func incrementNumberOfTaps(index: Int)
}
class TapLabelCollectionViewCell: UICollectionViewCell {
@IBOutlet var taplabel: UILabel!
var delegate: TapLabelCollectionViewCellDelegate?
var index: Int!
static let identifier = "tapLabelCellIdentifier"
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
setUpTapGestureRecognizer()
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
}
func setUpTapGestureRecognizer() {
let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(incrementNumberOfTaps))
print("tap Label,", taplabel)
taplabel.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)
}
@objc func incrementNumberOfTaps() {
delegate?.incrementNumberOfTaps(index: index)
}
}
I have TabView in ContentView and I want to add TabView for OnboardingView in OtherView, every things work, but it is throw error for TabView in OtherView like "Trailing closure passed to parameter of type 'Int' that does not accept a closure" I do not know why? Any idea?
ContentView:
struct TabView : View {
var body: some View{
VStack(spacing: 0){
.......
}
OtherView:
VStack {
TabView {
ForEach(onboardingData) { onboardingItem in
OnboardingCard(onboardingItem: onboardingItem)
}
}
.tabViewStyle(PageTabViewStyle(indexDisplayMode: .automatic))
.indexViewStyle(PageIndexViewStyle (backgroundDisplayMode:
.always))
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
Since the beta releases of iPadOS 26 we have been having some crashes about
Invalid parameter not satisfying: parentEnvironment != nil
We got to contact a couple of users and we found out that the crash appears when entering a screen in a UINavigationController with the iPad device connected to a Magic Keyboard. If the device is not connected to the keyboard then nothing happens and everything works ok.
From our end we haven't managed to reproduce the crash so I am pasting part of the stacktrace if it can be of any help.

We're trying to implement a backup/restore data feature in our business productivity iPad app using UIDocumentPickerViewController and AppleArchive, but discovered odd behavior of [UIDocumentPickerViewController initForOpeningContentTypes: asCopy:YES] when reading large archive files from a USB drive.
We've duplicated this behavior with iPadOS 16.6.1 and 17.7 when building our app with Xcode 15.4 targeting minimum deployment of iPadOS 16. We haven't tested this with bleeding edge iPadOS 18.
Here's our Objective-C code which presents the picker:
NSArray* contentTypeArray = @[UTTypeAppleArchive];
UIDocumentPickerViewController* docPickerVC = [[UIDocumentPickerViewController alloc] initForOpeningContentTypes:contentTypeArray asCopy:YES];
docPickerVC.delegate = self;
docPickerVC.allowsMultipleSelection = NO;
docPickerVC.shouldShowFileExtensions = YES;
docPickerVC.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover;
docPickerVC.popoverPresentationController.sourceView = self.view;
[self presentViewController:docPickerVC animated:YES completion:nil];
The UIDocumentPickerViewController remains visible until the selected external archive file has been copied from the USB drive to the app's local tmp sandbox. This may take several seconds due to the slow access speed of the USB drive. During this time the UIDocumentPickerViewController does NOT disable its tableview rows displaying files found on the USB drive. Even the most patient user will tap the desired filename a second (or third or fourth) time since the user's initial tap appears to have been ignored by UIDocumentPickerViewController, which lacks sufficient UI feedback showing it's busy copying the selected file.
When the user taps the file a second time, UIDocumentPickerViewController apparently begins to copy the archive file once again. The end result is a truncated copy of the selected file based on the time between taps. For instance, a 788 MB source archive may be copied as a 56 MB file. Here, the UIDocumentPickerDelegate receives a 56 MB file instead of the original 788 MB of data.
Not surprisingly, AppleArchive fails to decrypt the local copy of the archive because it's missing data. Instead of failing gracefully, AppleArchive crashes in AAArchiveStreamClose() (see forums post 765102 for details).
Does anyone know if there's a workaround for this strange behavior of UIDocumentPickerViewController?
I'm struggling to understand whether TextField handles undo by itself, or how to properly handle it myself.
In a macOS app with a SwiftUI lifecycle, in a DocumentGroup scene, I'm using both TextEditors and Textfields. The text editors handle undo out of the box, with undo coalescing.
The text fields seem not to. However, on occasion, they do create undo points, leaving me confused as to what conditions are needed for that to happen.
Is there a way to reliably get text fields to handle undo on their own? Or, how should I implement typing undo, including undo coalescing, manually?

We're seeing sporadic crashes on devices running iOS 18.1 - both beta and release builds (22B83). The stack trace is always identical, a snippet of it below. As you can tell from the trace, it's happening in places we embed SwiftUI into UIKit via UIHostingController.
Anyone else seeing this?

When scrolling a basic NSScrollView there seems to be a sudden jump after each flick. Scrolling does not appear smooth and is disorientating.
A scroll jump seems to happen directly after letting go of a scroll flick using a trackpad/mouse. Right at that moment the scroll turns into a momentum scroll, slowly decreasing the speed. But the first frame after the gesture the content jumps forward, more than what is expected.
Observations:
Counterintuitively, scrolling appears to be smoother when disabling NSScrollView.isCompatibleWithResponsiveScrolling. If disabled using a custom NSScrollView subclass there is no large jump anymore.
Scrolling also appears to be smoother using a SwiftUI ScrollView. I assume that has the same behaviour as a disabled isCompatibleWithResponsiveScrolling
Ironically a WKWebView scrolls much smoother. No sudden jump is observable. It also seems to scroll with faster acceleration, but the individual frames do appear smoother. Why is this better than a native NSScrollView?
Elastic scrolling at the bounds of the scroll view also appears much smoother for WKWebViews. When pulling to refresh there is a jump for NSScrollView/SwiftUI, but not for WKWebView.
When using an NSScrollView with isCompatibleWithResponsiveScrolling disabled, scrolling appears just as smooth as WKWebView on macOS 13 Ventura and below. On macOS 14 Sonoma scrolling behaviour is suddenly different.
Please see a sample project with 4 different scroll views side by side:
https://github.com/floorish/ScrollTest
Screen recordings show the sudden jumps when scrolling and when elastic scrolling.
Tested on Intel & Arm Macs, macOS 11 Big Sur through 15 Sequoia, built with Xcode 16.
Should isCompatibleWithResponsiveScrolling be disabled on Sonoma+? Are there any drawbacks?
There is also no overdraw anymore since Monterey, as described in https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/releasenotes/AppKit/RN-AppKitOlderNotes/#10_9Scrolling
Even with responsive scrolling disabled, why is WKWebView scrolling much smoother than NSScrollView?
We use SwiftUI's .tabViewBottomAccessory in our iOS apps for displaying an Audio MiniPlayer View (like in the Apple Music App).
TabView(selection: $viewModel.selectedTab) {
// Tabs here
}
.tabViewBottomAccessory {
if viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer {
MiniPlayerView()
}
}
The Problem
This code works perfectly on iOS 26.0. When viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer is false, the accessory is completely hidden.
However, on iOS 26.1 (23B5059e), when 'viewModel.showAudioMiniPlayer' becomes false, the MiniPlayerView disappears, but an empty container remains, leaving a blank space above the tab bar.
Is this a known Bug in iOS 26.1 and are there any effective workarounds?

I've encountered a potential bug where a TextField connected to an optional value (not a string) works as expected when bound to a @State property, but won't update a @Binding property.
Here is some example code
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View
{
@Binding var boundValue: Double?
@State private var stateValue: Double? = 55
var body: some View
{
TextField("Bound value", value: $boundValue, format: .number)
Text("\(boundValue ?? .nan)")
TextField("State value", value: $stateValue, format: .number)
Text("\(stateValue ?? .nan)")
}
}
#Preview
{
ContentView(boundValue: .constant(42.00))
}
It's as though the optional value stored externally is preventing the value updating. Can anyone confirm whether this is intentional, or a bug?
This is in Xcode 26b6, on macOS Tahoe 26b8, but from this query it looks like the problem has existed for years.

In one of my apps, i am using .glassEffect(_:In) to add glass effect on various elements. The app always crushes when a UI element with glassEffect(_in:) modifier is being rendered. This only happens on device running iOS 26 public beta. I know this for certain because I connected the particular device to xcode and run the app on the device. When i comment out the glassEffect modifier, app doesn't crush.
Is it possible to check particular realeases with #available? If not, how should something like this be handled. Also how do i handle such os level erros without the app crushing. Thanks.
On testing my app with tvOS 18, I have noticed the Siri Remote back button no longer provides system-provided behavior when interacting with tab bar controller pages. Instead of moving focus back to the tab bar when pressed, the back button will close the app, as if the Home button was pressed. This occurs both on device and in the Simulator.
Create tvOS project with a tab bar controller.
Create pages/tabs which contain focusable items (ie. buttons)
Scroll down to any focusable item (ie. a button or UICollectionView cell)
Hit the Siri Remote back button. See expect behavior below:
Expected behavior: System-provided behavior should move focus back to the tab bar at the top of the screen.
Actual results: App is closed and user is taken back to the Home Screen.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior?
