I found that on my cutomer's mac device, webflterproxyd start interferiing with the NE traffic. Tried to stop it, but "screen time" was not enabled at all.
Who started this webfilterproxyd process and how to stop it?

Hi,
Anybody knows will this occurs when using navigationStack at iOS 18.3? The navigationStack not stay at safeareas
the code as simple as that:
NavigationStack(path: $navManager.path) {
VStack {
Text("Hello")
}
.navigationDestination(for: Route.self) { route in
switch route {
....
}
}
}
.environmentObject(navManager)
.environment(logic)
Hi everyone, I'm currently working on my own Apple TV app. So far, things are going pretty well, but right now, I'm stuck on the design of the categories or selection menus.
Here's a screenshot of how it looks right now:
The green color and the border are intentionally added for now so I can see what is where. My actual goal is to remove the gray bar (or is this the "main bar"?). The pink bar and its border are just design elements that can be removed if needed. I want it to look more "original," like this:
Here is the code:
let title: String
let isSelected: Bool
var body: some View {
HStack {
Text(title)
.foregroundColor(isSelected ? .black : .white)
.font(.system(size: 22, weight: .regular))
.padding(.leading, 20)
Spacer()
Image(systemName: "chevron.right")
.foregroundColor(isSelected ? .black : .gray)
.padding(.trailing, 20)
}
.frame(height: 50) // Einheitliche Höhe für die Kategorien
.background(Color.pink) // Innerer Hintergrund auf pink gesetzt
.cornerRadius(10) // Abrundung direkt auf den Hintergrund anwenden
.overlay(
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10)
.stroke(Color.green, lineWidth: 3) // Äußerer Rahmen auf grün gesetzt
)
.padding(.horizontal, 0) // Entferne äußere Ränder
.background(Color.clear) // Entferne alle anderen Hintergründe
}
}
struct SettingsView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
SettingsView()
}
}
I’ve adjusted the code, but it’s still not quite right. When a category is not selected, it appears black instead of gray, like in the original design
Here is the code:
struct SettingsView: View {
@State private var selectedCategory: String?
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
ZStack {
Color.black
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
VStack(spacing: 0) {
// Überschrift oben in der Mitte
Text("Einstellungen")
.font(.system(size: 40, weight: .semibold))
.foregroundColor(.white)
.padding(.top, 30)
HStack {
// Linke Seite mit Logo
VStack {
Spacer()
Image(systemName: "applelogo")
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.frame(width: 120, height: 120)
.foregroundColor(.white)
Spacer()
}
.frame(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width * 0.4)
// Rechte Seite mit Kategorien
VStack(spacing: 15) {
ForEach(categories, id: \.self) { category in
NavigationLink(
value: category,
label: {
SettingsCategoryView(
title: category,
isSelected: selectedCategory == category
)
}
)
.buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle())
}
}
.frame(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width * 0.5)
}
}
}
.navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in
Text("\(value)-Ansicht")
.font(.title)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.navigationTitle(value)
}
}
}
private var categories: [String] {
["Allgemein", "Benutzer:innen und Accounts", "Video und Audio", "Bildschirmschoner", "AirPlay und HomeKit", "Fernbedienungen und Geräte", "Apps", "Netzwerk", "System", "Entwickler"]
}
}
struct SettingsCategoryView: View {
let title: String
let isSelected: Bool
var body: some View {
HStack {
Text(title)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.font(.system(size: 22, weight: .medium))
.padding(.leading, 20)
Spacer()
Image(systemName: "chevron.right")
.foregroundColor(.gray)
.padding(.trailing, 20)
}
.frame(height: 50) // Einheitliche Höhe für die Kategorien
.background(isSelected ? Color.gray.opacity(0.3) : Color.clear) // Hervorhebung des ausgewählten Elements
.cornerRadius(8) // Abgerundete Ecken
.scaleEffect(isSelected ? 1.05 : 1.0) // Fokus-Animation
.animation(.easeInOut, value: isSelected)
}
}
struct SettingsView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
SettingsView()
}
}
Hi, I'm getting started with designing and coding a watchOS app. I wanted to use Sketch to plan the UI before I dive into coding, but it seems like the official Sketch templates on the Design Resources page only have templates for the Series 8 and SE 2 on watchOS 10. I want to use the Series 10's screen size for my layouts since it's the model I have, but I can't find a template for it. Will the official templates be updated for the new models? If not, does anyone know of a third-party template I can use? Thanks in advance!
Hello Apple Developer Support,
We initially uploaded our INRx App on a different Apple Developer account for internal testing purposes.
Now, we would like to publish the same app under a new Apple Developer account for production, but we're currently facing a design-related rejection during the review process.
We believe the app meets all guidelines, and there were no design issues flagged previously when submitted from the testing account.
Could you please help us understand:
Why the same app is now being rejected for design issues?
Is there a way to resolve this while moving the app to the new account?
Any advice or clarification would be greatly appreciated so we can successfully proceed with publishing.
Thank you!
I'm using a NavigationSplitView on macOS which needs to show 2 or 3 columns depending on the selection of the sidebar.
Column 1 has a list of main activities. Some of these just have some data to show and some have a sublist.
Currently, when an item that has no sublist is selected, I set the 2nd column (content:) to:
Spacer()
.navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(0)
This works, although it started hitting bugs requiring a workaround on macOS 26, which got me wondering, what is the correct approach here?
NavigationSplitViewVisibility.doubleColumn is not the solution, as this hides column 1, not column 2.
Prior to iOS 26, this successfully gave me a modal view with a transparent background:
let settingsVC = MySettingsViewController()
settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .automatic
//settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
self.present(settingsVC, animated: true, completion: {
}
MySettingsViewController:
self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor(white: 0, alpha: 0.5)
Now in iOS 26, modal view is presented in a opaque grey background.
App design: macos, Xcode 16.4, Sequioa 15.5, it is sandboxed
Uses: Pods->HotKey for a global hotkey which xcode says "binary compatibility can't be guaranteed"
This app is on the Apple Store and supposedly apps on the Apple Store can't use global hotkeys. Someone internally, installed it from the store and the global hotkey works just fine.
I'm concerned for two potential problems;
I need to find a hotkey library or code that is known to work with a sandbox'd Apple Store app.
Why is it working now when everything I have read says it shouldn't.
I'm developing an iPadOS 18+ application that uses a UITabBarController, styled as a sidebar, to serve as the primary navigation interface. This setup includes 20 different tabs, each representing a distinct section of the app.
For the user experience, each tab needs to present a master-detail interface, implemented using a UISplitViewController. The goal is to allow users to navigate between tabs via the sidebar, and within each tab, access related content through the split view's list-detail pattern.
The Problem:
Currently, my implementation involves instantiating a separate UISplitViewController for each tab, resulting in 20 unique split view instances embedded inside the UITabBarController. While this works functionally, it leads to significant memory usage, especially after the user opens each tab at least once. The accumulation of all these instantiated view controllers in memory eventually causes performance degradation or even memory warnings/crashes on lower-end iPads.
The Question:
What is the best approach to implement this type of architecture without running into memory management issues?
Specifically:
Is there a way to reuse or lazily load the UISplitViewController instances only when needed?
Can we unload or release split view controllers that haven't been used for a while to reduce memory pressure?
Would a custom container controller be more appropriate than using UITabBarController in this case?
Are there iPadOS 18+ best practices or newer APIs that support this kind of complex multi-tab, multi-split-view structure efficiently?
Any advice on how to optimize memory usage while preserving the sidebar navigation and split view layout would be highly appreciated.
Add slim horizontal bar at the top of the Notification Center that displays the apps with current notifications, along with a badge showing the number of notifications for each app. Each app icon is clickable, allowing users to filter the Notification Center and view only the notifications from the selected app.
The first button in the slider should be “All” to show all notifications, followed by app icons (Excluding notifications summary)
This bar Appears only when notifications are from more than one app.
Hidden if there’s only one app in Notification Center (no need to filter).
Benefits:
Better organization: Helps users quickly identify which apps have unread notifications.
Reduced distraction: Allows focusing on notifications from one app at a time.
Easier navigation: Especially helpful when notifications from multiple apps are mixed together by time.
Faster interaction: Saves time by letting users jump directly to the relevant group of grouped or multiple notifications.

In macOS 26 Betas 1–3, the system applied an automatic dark-mode fallback for app icons. This ensured consistency across the Dock and Finder even when developers hadn’t provided dark assets.
Since Beta 4, this fallback was removed. As of Beta 7, icons now rely entirely on developer-updated assets. The result is mixed light and dark icons in the Dock, breaking visual consistency and making app recognition slower in dark mode.
Observed behavior:
• Icons without dark assets are displayed in their original light version.
• Some apps (e.g. Final Cut Pro) show a gray border treatment that feels inconsistent with the rest of the UI.
• The fallback applied in Betas 1–3 is completely absent.
Expected behavior:
System should provide a fallback rendering until developers supply proper dark assets, or offer a toggle in System Settings → Appearance (e.g. “Force Dark Icons”).
This is still present in Beta 7. Is there any plan to restore the fallback mechanism or provide a user option?
Hi,
Just want to check is there a requirement for Apple that for App Digital Wallet provisioning that Apple Pay button is not more than 2 taps away from Home Screen?
I have accidentally missed the sign up window for the UX Writing lab by 1 hour, but I'd still love to join it if at all possible. I have had this lab several times in the past and it was always very informative.
I have a time tracking app that helps people make the most of their time. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/timelines-time-tracking/id1112433234
I'm looking for guidance on how to improve copywriting in my onboarding sequence, on my paywall, and overall throughout the app.
Thank you for considering. My Apple ID is lukas[at]glimsoft.com.
Where is the Figma App Icon Template mentioned in the Developer session https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/361?
This has been an issue since installing the first beta and I haven't seen anyone else say anything about it so I feel like I'm going kind of bonkers. While using Dark Mode, double-tapping to select a word while using the Liquid Glass keyboard, like in Messages or Safari, produces a flashlight-like effect over the text with each tap. While this is a fine animation and pretty helpful when moving the cursor, the brightness of the flashlight effect on white text in Dark Mode makes it impossible to see what you're actually tapping to select. The brightness seems to intensify 100x when rapidly tapping. This is not an issue in Light Mode when the text itself is black.
To recreate this, just turn your phone to Dark Mode, go into Messages and type a few words into a thread. Try to double-tap to select a word in the text box. The brightness of the selected word should intensify to the point of being unable to see the word itself.
Has anyone been bothered by this? Is there a way to fix or adjust it? I've tried reducing transparency and a bunch of other settings but nothing has worked.

According to the API documentation above, the parameter values for platform can be three: IOS, MAC-OS, and UNIVERSAL. After debugging, it was found that IOS and MAC-OS can be used normally, but UNIVERSAL encountered an error UNIVERSAL' is not a valid value for the attribute 'platform'. Expected one of: 'IOS', 'MAC_OS', I would like to know if this value has been deprecated or if the API interface requires new version support, and how to use this value! Please help me solve it! thank you!
Helvetica (17.0d1e1) has bugs, hopefully the developers and designers will fix it.

I'm trying out Icon Composer Version 1.0 (27.4). I imported a simple logo and sized it in the outer circle. The icon appears good in the Icon Composer. But when I export the file and use it for my app icon it seems to be missing a margin or padding that other native application icons have.
Am i supposed to be adding my own padding to these resulting icons or am I building them incorrectly? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!
