I have really examined the swipe left Camera function mode and sincerely believe it is no more important especially when there no option in the settings to turn it on or off.
I will highly recommend a total scrap in the iOS 26 or if possible a function to activate and deactivate it.

I am trying to resize a Window Form after it loads and have done quite a bit of searching for code to do it.
Here is one code snippet that works to size the form during the design phase.
self.view.window?.contentMinSize = CGSize(width: 1100, height: 310)
I have tried code like below to increase the window size after the Form loads
if let myWindow = self.view.window ?? NSApplication.shared.mainWindow
{
// Increase window size and position after it loads
let newRect = NSRect(x: 100, y: 100, width: 1400, height: 900)
}
It seems that this code not only changes the Form size after loading, but also changes the size of the Form in Main.swift, which is something I don't want.
I read elsewhere that I had to disable constraints to resize the Form, so I tried code below.
let tableView = NSTableView()
tableView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
let newRect = NSRect(x: 100, y: 0, width: 1100, height: 600)
myWindow?.setFrame(newRect, display: true)
That code did not seem to do anything as well.
Also, the Form displays in the lower left of the screen.
Note that main reason I want to resize the Form after loading is to keep it smaller during design development. The same goes for the NSTableView, which I have not gotten to yet.
The brand new animation in Stage Manager greatly reduced dizziness. However, don’t know why it ONLY applies when no window was presented. What would be the problem elsewhere?
Stage Manager is one of pretty few motion pictures that annoyed me and forced me to turn on Reduce Motion, or stop using Stage Manager. Big pity…

Hello -
I have an older app on the store, iAchieved, that suddenly stopped working properly on iOS 18. You can see it on the store, here:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/iachieved/id1069338478
It still opens runs, and I can try to enter a new item, but something is wrong with the date, so that the "Done" button does not appear. And since it does not, I cannot tap it and create the item.
I'm not a developer, I don't code, I only designed the app and had someone build it for me.
But, if you can put it in layman's terms, any idea what's causing this?
Thanks so much for any insight you can provide,
-- David
Hi all,
I wanted to check whether the NFC bottom-sheet UI shown by iOS during an NFC reading session can be customized.
We have a Figma design (attached) for how the sheet should look, but we are not sure whether iOS allows modifying the default NFC UI.
Is UI customization supported, or is the bottom sheet fully controlled by the system?
Thanks in advance.
I just discover that feature (a folder lost in the middle of others desktop folder ).
so with each updates:
-/usr/local is emptied
-somes apps in the Application folder, are deleted, even paid apps ..
-i lost : Docker, python 3.13, latexlive2025, Apache NetBeans, java install, Affinity Publisher 2, all my 3D slicers ... github desktop, Epic Games Launcher, ........

thank you !!!
Dear Apple Innovation Team,
I have a game-changing iPhone concept and want Apple to explore it first.
📱 iPhone 18 – The First True Portless iPhone
No ports – MagSafe 2.0 with high-speed data transfer.
Under-display Face ID & Camera – No security compromise.
Seamless OLED Display – No interruptions, just pure screen.
📂 iPhone 20 – The Perfect Foldable
Crease-free foldable design – Apple perfects what others failed to.
Optimized iOS for foldables – Smooth UI & app integration.
Apple leads the foldable market.
🚀 Why This Matters: Apple can set a new standard & dominate both innovations.
Looking forward to your response.
Best,
Saksham Sethi
In Apple Music I opened fullscreen for a song and I accidentally clicked some keys and the name and artist name of the song I was playing disappeared, and I can't figure out how to get it back, it temporarily comes back when I hover over the top bar but I can not get it to stay there permanently.
What is the step-by-step process to run an iOS application paired with the Mac in my MAUI project?
I am using Windows with Visual Studio 2022 V17.13.5.
Application: Multiplatform;
Language: C#;
Framework: MAUI 8;
Xcode: 16.2;
Objective: Identify and fix the issue to allow the application to run correctly.
Does iOS 26 support HDR images for app icons to be rendered in High Dynamic Range for Springboard or not?
Here is my code and the error code being generated during build.
let myString : String = "https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=TIME_SERIES_DAILY&symbol=AAPL&apikey= D5GY7HKODE66G0T9"
var banjo = URL(string: myString)
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with:banjo ) { myDatastring , response , error in}
// task.resume()
I've tested that URL in my browser and it works. But when I try to build I get: Value of optional type 'URL?' must be unwrapped to a value of type 'URL'
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I think the URL struct is not returning a URL type of object.
Your app still contains features that mimic the iOS interface or behavior.
I have a simple app that uses a NavigationSplitView 3 panels
I have a section for Filters and User created Categories in Panel 1
A list of "Requests" from the selected Filters/Categories in Panel 2
and details of a request in Panel 3
It's designed to be simple and easy to use. How can it NOT "mimic the iOS interface" if I am using their own APIs?
What should I do to get around this
I found that unofficial apps like ChatGPT and Shadowrocket can use widgets in VisionOS 26. How is this achieved? How can I also enable widgets for apps I develop?
Hi everyone, I'm new to building apps on Swift and recently I've been wondering how does Apple get this blur effect behind the control center on Mac OS Tahoe. I think it would be nice to use in an app that I'm making but I can't seem to find it in the docs. Is it available through AppKit? I would appreciate some help on this
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?
Hi everyone,
I’m new to macOS development and working on an app idea that needs a timeline-based editor interface, similar to what you see in Logic Pro or Final Cut.
The UI I want to build would have:
A horizontal beat ruler that follows BPM and shows beat positions
Several vertical tracks stacked below it (for things like events or markers)
Horizontal zooming and scrolling
A preview panel on the right side that stays in sync with the timeline
I’m currently trying this in SwiftUI, but I’m running into some limitations and wondering if AppKit would be a better fit, or maybe a hybrid of the two.
My questions:
Where should I start when building something like this?
What’s the best way to make the beat ruler and all track layers scroll together?
How should I handle zooming in/out and syncing the display to a BPM timeline?
Is there a clean way to integrate AppKit for the timeline view while keeping SwiftUI elsewhere?
Hi there. Our designer is designing our app in Figma with the navigation element with compact size navigation bar, and large title. I couldn't find an API to actually configure the nav bar to be compact while keeping the large title enabled. Figma uses the libraries provided by Apple so it's weird I can't find such configuration in iOS26.
I'm adding a screenshot of the options in Figma.
First option is: Large size & large text.
The one our designer is using is compact size & large text.
Is it possible to use the new variable draw feature for a custom SF Symbol without it leaving the background behind it when it is not drawn?
I am trying to make a tally icon that is drawn with the variable draw, but it doesn't look good if the tally is visible in the background before it is drawn.
I'm trying to create custom SF symbols and am getting this error message when I validate the template. It doesn't matter if I Export Template or Symbol. Also, it doesn't even matter if I make any changes or not, as long as it is opened in Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape and then I save it, I will get this error message when validating.
Hi everyone,
I’m having trouble getting the new glassEffect() modifier to render correctly in SwiftUI.
No matter what I try, it just appears as a solid white background (instead of translucent glass). This happens both in Beta 1 and Beta 2.
My setup:
• Mac mini (M4 chip)
• macOS 15 Beta 2 (Tahoe)
• Xcode 16 Beta 2
• Samsung Odyssey G9 57” monitor (super ultrawide)
• Using Preview in SwiftUI (not the Simulator)
Even when I use Apple’s default demo code like:
Text("Hello World")
.padding()
.glassEffect()
