Is anyone else getting new warning about menu items with submenus when running on Tahoe? I'm getting big performance problems using my menu as well as seeing these messages and I'm wondering if there's a connection. My app is faceless with a NSStatusItem with an NSMenu. Specifically it's my own subclass of NSMenu where I have a lot of code to manage the menu's dynamic behavior. This code is directly in the menu subclass instead of in a controller because the app I forked had it this way, a little wacky but I don't see it being a problem. A nib defines the contents of the menu, and it's instantiated manually with code like: var nibObjects: NSArray? = [] guard let nib = NSNib(nibNamed: "AppMenu", bundle: nil) else { ... } guard nib.instantiate(withOwner: owner, topLevelObjects: &nibObjects) else { ... } guard let menu = nibObjects?.compactMap({ $0 as? Self }).first else { ... } Within that nib.instantiate call I see a warning logged that seems new to Tahoe, before the menu's awakeFromNib is called, that says (edited): Internal inconsistency in menus - menu <NSMenu: 0x6000034e5340> believes it has <My_StatusItem_App.AppMenu: 0x7f9570c1a440> as a supermenu, but the supermenu does not seem to have any item with that submenu My_StatusItem_App.AppMenu: 0x7f9570c1a440 is my menu belonging to the NSStatusItem, NSMenu: 0x6000034e5340 is the submenu of one of its menu items. At a breakpoint in the NSMenu subclass's awakeFromNib I print self and see clear evidence of the warning's incorrectness. Below is a snippet of the console including the full warning, only edited for clarity and brevity. It shows on line 32 menu item with placeholder title "prototype batch item" that indeed has that submenu. Internal inconsistency in menus - menu <NSMenu: 0x6000034e5340> Title: Supermenu: 0x7f9570c1a440 (My StatusItem App), autoenable: YES Previous menu: 0x0 (None) Next menu: 0x0 (None) Items: ( "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e4fa0 Do The Thing Again, ke mask='<none>'>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e5040 Customize\U2026, ke mask='<none>'>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e50e0, ke mask='<none>'>" ) believes it has <My_StatusItem_App.AppMenu: 0x7f9570c1a440> Title: My StatusItem App Supermenu: 0x0 (None), autoenable: YES Previous menu: 0x0 (None) Next menu: 0x0 (None) Items: ( ) as a supermenu, but the supermenu does not seem to have any item with that submenu (lldb) po self <My_StatusItem_App.AppMenu: 0x7f9570c1a440> Title: My StatusItem App Supermenu: 0x0 (None), autoenable: YES Previous menu: 0x0 (None) Next menu: 0x0 (None) Items: ( "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fd7c0 About My StatusItem App\U2026, ke mask='<none>', action: showAbout:, action image: info.circle>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fd860 Show Onboarding Window\U2026, ke mask='Shift', action: showIntro:>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fd900 Update Available\U2026, ke mask='<none>', action: installUpdate:, standard image: icloud.and.arrow.down, hidden>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e46e0, ke mask='<none>'>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e4780 Start The Thing, ke mask='<none>', action: startTheThing:>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e4dc0 \U2318-\U232b key detector item, ke mask='<none>', view: <My_StatusItem_App.KeyDetectorView: 0x7f9570c1a010>>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e4e60, ke mask='<none>'>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010e4f00 saved batches heading item, ke mask='<none>', view: <NSView: 0x7f9570b4be10>, hidden>", "<My_StatusItem_App.BatchMenuItem: 0x6000016e02c0 prototype batch item, ke mask='<none>', action: replaySavedBatch:, submenu: 0x6000034e5340 ()>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010f7d40, ke mask='<none>'>", "<My_StatusItem_App.ClipMenuItem: 0x7f956ef14fd0 prototype copy clip item, ke mask='<none>', action: copyClip:>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fa620 Settings\U2026, ke='Command-,', action: showSettings:>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fa6c0, ke mask='<none>'>", "<NSMenuItem: 0x6000010fa760 Quit My StatusItem App, ke='Command-Q', action: quit:>" ) Is this seemingly incorrect inconsistency message harmless? Am I only grasping at straws to think it has some connection to the performance issues with this menu?

is there anything I can do about this? It's in a navigation controller, and I get a lot of these when I pop and push. eventually it causes glitches with zoom animations making for some really loopy zooms. I posted a movie to FB20439774. If there's anything I can do to fix it would be great. Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.

How can I correctly display the cursor using a custom keyboard in SwiftUI without using UIKit? Currently, I'm encountering a conflict between the custom keyboard and the system keyboard in SwiftUI, resulting in both keyboards being displayed simultaneously. If I disable the system keyboard and then handle the custom keyboard, the cursor disappears. How can I resolve this issue?it?

I have an app where I create UIToolbars and add them to UIViews programatically. I've never used autolayout for anything, I've never assigned any constraints to anything, etc. This worked fine pre-iOS 26. Now I'm trying to build for iOS 26 (liquid glass) and my toolbars are spamming my debug pane with hundreds of lines of autolayout warnings. Here are some key phrases from the warnings: Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints. Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint Make a symbolic breakpoint at UIViewAlertForUnsatisfiableConstraints to catch this in the debugger. (Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, refer to the documentation for the UIView property translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints) Does anybody know what happened and how I can get it to stop? The way things are, I can't use the debug pane for anything because of this spam.

When a UIVisualEffect with glass effect view is added with opacity 0, it remains hidden as expected. But when changing it back to 1 should make it visible, but currently it stays hidden forever. The bug is only reproducible on iOS 26.1 and iOS 26.2. It does not happen on iOS 26.0. The issue is also not reproducible with UIBlurEffect. Only happens for Glass effect Here is the repro link

What is the correct way to implement scrolling in a looong list that uses ScrollView and LazyVstack Imagine I have some api that returns a longs list of comments with replies The basic usecase is to scroll to the bottom(to the last comment) Most of the time this works fine But, imagine some of the comments have many replies like 35 or more (or even 300) User expands replies for the first post, then presses scroll to bottom. The scrollbar reaches the bottom and I see the blank screen. Sometimes the scrollbar may jump for a while before lazyvstack finishes loading or until I manually scroll up a bit or all the way up and down What should I do in this case? Is this the swiftui performance problem that has no cure? Abstract example: ScrollViewReader { proxy in ScrollView { LazyVStack { ForEach(comments) { comment in CommentView(comment: comment) .id("comment-\(comment.id)") } } } } struct CommentView: View { let comment: Comment @State var isExpanded = false var body: some View { VStack { Text(comment.text) if isExpanded { RepliesView(replies: comment.replies) // 35-300+ replies } } } } ... scroll proxy.scrollTo("comment-\(lastComment.id)", anchor: .bottom)

Hello! I'm creating a settings page for my app and I want it to look as native as possible. I want to know if it's possible to add constraints that make the second label go to the bottom when the text size gets really large (see Picture1) instead of having to force it to be on the right (see Picture 2). I've left my constraint code for this cell down below, too. I'm still learning constraints and best practices, so if there's any feedback, I'd love to hear it. Thank you! Picture 1 Picture 2 - (void) setConstraints { [NSLayoutConstraint activateConstraints:@[ // Cell Title Label [self.themeColorLabel.leadingAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.leadingAnchor], [self.themeColorLabel.trailingAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor:self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.trailingAnchor], [self.themeColorLabel.topAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor: self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.topAnchor], [self.themeColorLabel.bottomAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor: self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.bottomAnchor], // Selected Theme Color Label [self.selectedColorLabel.trailingAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor: self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.trailingAnchor], [self.selectedColorLabel.topAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor: self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.topAnchor], [self.selectedColorLabel.bottomAnchor constraintEqualToAnchor: self.contentView.layoutMarginsGuide.bottomAnchor], ]]; }

iOS simulator version 18.0+ I have a demo like this: Menu { Button { } label: { Text("Option 1") Image(systemName: "star") } Button { } label: { Text("Option 2") Image(systemName: "star") } } label: { Text("Menu") } And I used the tool Accessibility Inspector to modify the text size. Case 1: We could see the option title and the star icon. Case 2: But we could not see the icon, only the option title here Is this by design from Apple? Or does this need to be fixed? Does anyone know about my question?

I have a SwiftUI app. It fetches records through CoreData. And I want to show some records on a widget. I understand that I need to use AppGroup to share data between an app and its associated widget. import Foundation import CoreData import CloudKit class DataManager { static let instance = DataManager() let container: NSPersistentContainer let context: NSManagedObjectContext init() { container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: "DataMama") container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: group identifier)!.appendingPathComponent("Trash.sqlite"))] container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (description, error) in if let error = error as NSError? { print("Unresolved error \(error), \(error.userInfo)") } }) context = container.viewContext context.automaticallyMergesChangesFromParent = true context.mergePolicy = NSMergePolicy(merge: .mergeByPropertyObjectTrumpMergePolicyType) } func save() { do { try container.viewContext.save() print("Saved successfully") } catch { print("Error in saving data: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } // ViewModel // import Foundation import CoreData import WidgetKit class ViewModel: ObservableObject { let manager = DataManager() @Published var records: [Little] = [] init() { fetchRecords() } func fetchRecords() { let request = NSFetchRequest<Little>(entityName: "Little") do { records = try manager.context.fetch(request) records.sort { lhs, rhs in lhs.trashDate! < rhs.trashDate! } } catch { print("Fetch error for DataManager: \(error.localizedDescription)") } WidgetCenter.shared.reloadAllTimelines() } } So I have a view model that fetches data for the app as shown above. Now, my question is how should my widget get data from CoreData? Should the widget get data from CoreData through DataManager? I have read some questions here and also read some articles around the world. This article ( https://dev.classmethod.jp/articles/widget-coredate-introduction/ ) suggests that you let the Widget struct access CoreData through DataManager. If that's a correct fashion, how should the getTimeline function in the TimelineProvider struct get data? This question also suggests the same. Thank you for your reading my question.

I’m building a photo‑gallery view that mimics the iOS Photos app when it’s zoomed in to the maximum level: all years are displayed at once, with roughly 400 tiny thumbnails per page. The user experience of the system app is that the view is instantly visible, and scrolling keeps thumbnails instantly appearing. I’ve already tried fetching thumbnails with PHImageManager and PHCachingImageManager, requesting the .fastFormat representation. However, the thumbnails still take several seconds to load, so the scrolling experience is noticeably laggy compared to the system app. Is there another approach or technique—perhaps a different caching strategy, pre‑fetching, or a lower‑level API—that would allow me to retrieve and display thumbnails as quickly (or faster) than the native Photos app? Any guidance or code snippets would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to narrow down the y-axis and use the clipped() to crop the excess. However, the clipped portion is too small, causing some of the chart to render above the x-axis. Is there any way to fix this, or any way to have the framework automatically set the y-axis range based on the data?

Hello, I'm having a problem with the .glasseffect modifier in a view of a SwiftUI application. I have a list that starts with a static element, followed by several dynamic entries, and then another static element. I've applied the .glasseffect modifier to all the elements, and it works fine except for the first static element. I think I've figured out what's causing it. This element contains two date pickers, and if I comment one out, it works. As soon as both are present, I get a BAD_ACCESS_ERROR. Oddly enough, this only happens on the tablet. Everything runs normally in the simulator. If I remove the .glassmodifier and use a normal background, it still works. Is this a bug, or is it against Liquid Glass to have two date pickers in a stack and then use the .glasseffect modifier?

I was trying to figure out why my bottom sheet looks weird and doesn't have the "proper glass" look. I found that this issue seems to be new to iOS 26.1. See the images below, they show the same view hierarchy (in this case UIHostingController configured as bottom sheet that has NavigationStack and content. On iOS 26.1 there seems to be extra two layers of background - even though I am no adding any. iOS 26: iOS 26.1 Has anyone experienced something similar? Any workarounds? I am happy to completely disable the glass effect for this bottom sheet if it helps. The screenshots show one sheet, but the same thing happens for another ones.

I have a Catalyst app on the App Store and I'm starting to get messages from users that the popover bubbles all over the app are without content. I see the error locally as well, but I don't know how to fix it. I get the following warning in XCode when opening a popup: UIScene property of UINSSceneViewController was accessed before it was set.

On macOS 15.2, any Mac Catalyst project that does not support portrait iPad orientation will no longer be able to successfully show the contents of any popover controls. This does not appear to be a problem on earlier versions of macOS and it only affects Mac Catalyst builds, not "Designed for iPad" builds. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Create a project that utilizes Mac Catalyst. Create a simple button that shows a popover with simple content. Remove Portrait as a supported orientation. Run the project on macOS 15.2 as a Mac Catalyst build. Note that the content inside the popover is not shown the popover is shown. Run the project as Designed for iPad. Note that the popover content shows correctly.

When UIStatusBarHidden is set to YES, the navigation bar is displayed in the wrong vertical position immediately after app launch. The layout only corrects itself after the device orientation changes (e.g., rotation). Steps to Reproduce: Create a new app with a navigation controller. Set UIStatusBarHidden = YES in Info.plist. Launch the app. Expected Result: The navigation bar should appear in the correct position immediately after launch. Actual Result: The navigation bar is misaligned on first launch, and only moves to the correct position after rotating the device.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to reproduce the layout Apple Music uses for playlists, where there is header content above the table (artwork, title, buttons), and when you scroll, everything scrolls together—the header and table rows move as a single scrollable region. Here’s an example of what I’m trying to achieve: I’m using SwiftUI’s Table view and I haven’t found a clean way to place custom content above the table while keeping everything inside the same scroll view. Is there currently a recommended way to achieve Apple Music–style scrollable header + table content using SwiftUI? Thanks!

For information I stumbled upon a regression with SwiftUI Slider on iOS 26. Its onEditingChanged closure might be called twice when interaction ends, with a final Boolean incorrect value of true provided to the closure. As a result apps cannot reliably rely on this closure to detect when an interaction with the slider starts or ends. I filed a feedback under FB20283439 (iOS 26.0 regression: Slider onEditingChanged closure is unreliable).

Number keys on iPadOS 26 register incorrect/random characters, making numeric input unreliable across all applications. Affected Versions iPadOS 26.0 through 26.1 (build 23B85) Platform-specific: Only iPadOS (iPhone doesn't present the full on-screen keyboard) Reproduction Steps Open any app with a numeric text field (For example, Apple's Contacts) Tap numeric text field - a small number-only pad appears Dismiss this small numpad (tap outside or hit return) Tap the field again - full keyboard with numbers appears Type numbers on this full keyboard Result: Numbers register as random/incorrect characters Scope Affects numeric keyboard types (.numberPad, .decimalPad ) Reproducible in Apple's native apps (Contacts or any apps that has numeric TextField) Impact Critical: Users cannot reliably enter phone numbers, passwords, financial data, or any numeric input. Other findings Keyboard starts to register correct keys when switch from the full on-screen keyboard to alphabetic page, and then back to the page with numeric keys

I'm building an alarm app using the new AlarmKit introduced in iOS 26. The alarm works correctly when the device is locked, but when the screen is already on and unlocked, it only gives a single short vibration. I tested another app that also uses AlarmKit just to confirm, and it behaves the same way—only one short vibration if the display is awake, and the developer added a push notification as a workaround. The default iOS Clock app works properly in both situations (though when the screen is on, it uses the Dynamic Island interface). So I'm wondering: is this behavior a bug in AlarmKit, or is it intentional?
