Replacement for deprecated CLPlacemark.region?
Hello, I use CLGeocoder to get the CLLocationCoordinate2D and CLRegion for an address. Now that this is deprecated in OS 26, I don't see a replacement for that property on MKMapItem via MKMapItemRequest and PlaceDescriptor. I've filed FB19027378 on this issue. Basically I have some addresses that have a street address, and others that just have a city. With CLGeocoder, when geocoding just the city, the CLRegion was set such that I could show my map zoomed out just right. I'm not sure how to do that now. Thanks!

Change to safe area logic on iOS 26
I have a few view controllers in a large UIKit application that previously started showing content right below the bottom of the top navigation toolbar. When testing the same code on iOS 26, these same views have their content extend under the navigation bar and toolbar. I was able to fix it with: if #available(iOS 26, *, *) { self.edgesForExtendedLayout = [.bottom] } when running on iOS 26. I also fixed one or two places where the main view was anchored to self.view.topAnchor instead of self.view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor. Although this seems to work, I wonder if this was an intended change in iOS 26 or just a temporary bug in the beta that will be resolved. Were changes made to the safe area and edgesForExtendedLayout logic in iOS 26? If so, is there a place I can see what the specific changes were, so I know my code is handling it properly? Thanks!

iOS 26 Beta 3, UIGlassEffect corner radius
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.

Automatic Sign-In API — requestAutoSignInAuthorization() - "Service temporarily unavailable"
When integrating the Automatic Sign-In API on physical devices (iPhone SE with iOS 26.0 and Apple TV with tvOS 26.0), the call to requestAutoSignInAuthorization() results in an immediate error stating "Service temporarily unavailable." This prevents the app from obtaining the necessary authorization context to proceed with token updates and the Automatic Sign-In flow. The issue occurs specifically at the authorization request stage and does not progress to calling updateAutoSignInToken(), since it does not acquire conditions for it. All entitlement and sandbox setup have been verified and are correctly configured. Error: Error Domain=VSErrorDomain Code=3 "The service is temporarily unavailable." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=The service is temporarily unavailable., NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Please try again later.}

button is pressed when starting scrolling in iOS 18
On iOS 18, while on a modal screen, if the scrolling starts on a button, that button gets pressed, outside of a modal this doesn't reproduce, also not reproducible on older iOS versions, neither on modals or outside of them. The code to reproduce the issue: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State var presentModal = false var body: some View { Button(action: { presentModal = true }, label: { Text("open modal") }) .sheet(isPresented: $presentModal, content: { ScrollView { ForEach(0..<100, id: \.self) { index in Button(action: { print("Button \(index) tapped!") }) { Text("Button \(index)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) .frame(height: 100) .background(randomColor(for: index)) .padding(.horizontal) } } } }) } func randomColor(for index: Int) -> Color { let hue = Double(index % 100) / 100.0 return Color(hue: hue, saturation: 0.8, brightness: 0.8) } } #Preview { ContentView() }

Xcode 16 SwiftUI List Fast Scrolling Issue
Hi! When building my app using Xcode 16, fast scrolling (using scrollViewProxy.scrollTo) a list would result in items not appearing even when scrolling stopped. This does not happen when the app is built with Xcode 15, even on iOS 18. I'm also getting this error in the logs: List failed to visit cell content, returning an empty cell. - SwiftUICore/Logging.swift:84 - please file a bug report.

iOS 26 beta: UIResponder inputAccessoryView no longer integrates seamlessly with system keyboard
Prior to iOS 26, it was possible to design an inputAccessoryView(Controller) that would integrate seamlessly with the system keyboard, by which I mean appearing as a natural extension of the system keyboard. For example, using CYRKeyboardButton https://github.com/tmcintos/CYRKeyboardButton. To date, I have successfully used this to provide an enhanced numeric key row within my apps, which is a distinguishing feature of these apps. It took a lot of engineering and testing effort to perfect this design. However, with iOS 26 the design is completely broken due to the system keyboard UI change, which makes it impossible to display an inputAccessoryView seamlessly along the top of the system keyboard (see attached screenshots). In my opinion, it is just plain reckless for Apple to make these kinds of trivial UI changes, which break existing app designs without adding any significant value to the user experience. iOS ≤ 18.x: iOS 26 beta:

Since iOS 18.3, icons are no longer generated correctly with QLThumbnailGenerator
Since iOS 18.3, icons are no longer generated correctly with QLThumbnailGenerator. No error is returned either. But this error message now appears in the console: Error returned from iconservicesagent image request: <ISTypeIcon: 0x3010f91a0>,Type: com.adobe.pdf - <ISImageDescriptor: 0x302f188c0> - (36.00, 36.00)@3x v:1 l:5 a:0:0:0:0 t:() b:0 s:2 ps:0 digest: B19540FD-0449-3E89-AC50-38F92F9760FE error: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-609 "Client is disallowed from making such an icon request" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Client is disallowed from making such an icon request} Does anyone know this error? Is there a workaround? Are there new permissions to consider?

AsyncRenderer causes crashes in ForEach when in Swift 6 language mode
Hi! We've recently done a big migration to Swift 6 language mode in our app and are now getting reports of crashes occurring due to closures in our SwiftUI code (most often the view builder in ForEach) not running on the main queue but instead running on the queue com.apple.SwiftUI.AsyncRenderer. One example of a call stack (ScheduleListView is our view that is in Swift 6 mode): Thread 16 #0 (null) in _dispatch_assert_queue_fail () #1 (null) in dispatch_assert_queue$V2.cold.1 () #2 (null) in dispatch_assert_queue () #3 (null) in swift_task_isCurrentExecutorWithFlagsImpl(swift::SerialExecutorRef, swift::swift_task_is_current_executor_flag) () #4 (null) in closure #2 in closure #1 in closure #1 in ScheduleListView.body.getter () #5 (null) in closure #1 in ForEachState.item(at:offset:) () #6 (null) in partial apply for closure #1 in ForEachState.item(at:offset:) () #8 (null) in partial apply for closure #1 in _withObservation<A>(do:) () .... (We have many other crashes with similar crash reports but in other views) Has anybody else run into something similar? Is there anything (other than simply reverting to Swift 5 mode again) that we can do to fix or at least reduce the amount of crashes? We're having a hard time finding anything out of the ordinary that we're doing in our views. Regards

iOS 26 UIKIt: Where's the missing cornerConfiguration property of UIViewEffectView?
In WWDC25 video 284: Build a UIKit app with the new design, there is mention of a cornerConfiguration property on UIVisualEffectView. But this properly isn't documented and Xcode 26 isn't aware of any such property. I'm trying to replicate the results of that video in the section titled Custom Elements starting at the 19:15 point. There is a lot of missing details and typos in the code associated with that video. My attempts with UIGlassEffect and UIViewEffectView do not result in any capsule shapes. I just get rectangles with no rounded corners at all. As an experiment, I am trying to recreate the capsule with the layers/location buttons in the iOS 26 version of the Maps app. I put the following code in a view controller's viewDidLoad method let imgCfgLayer = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(hierarchicalColor: .systemGray) let imgLayer = UIImage(systemName: "square.2.layers.3d.fill", withConfiguration: imgCfgLayer) var cfgLayer = UIButton.Configuration.plain() cfgLayer.image = imgLayer let btnLayer = UIButton(configuration: cfgLayer, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("layer") })) var cfgLoc = UIButton.Configuration.plain() let imgLoc = UIImage(systemName: "location") cfgLoc.image = imgLoc let btnLoc = UIButton(configuration: cfgLoc, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("location") })) let bgEffect = UIGlassEffect() bgEffect.isInteractive = true let bg = UIVisualEffectView(effect: bgEffect) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLayer) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLoc) view.addSubview(bg) btnLayer.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false btnLoc.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false bg.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ btnLayer.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.leadingAnchor), btnLayer.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.trailingAnchor), btnLayer.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.topAnchor), btnLoc.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.centerXAnchor), btnLoc.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: btnLayer.bottomAnchor, constant: 15), btnLoc.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.bottomAnchor), bg.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerXAnchor), bg.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor, constant: 40), ]) The result is pretty close other than the complete lack of capsule shape. What changes would be needed to get the capsule shape? Is this even the proper approach?

iOS 26 beta - Crash using QLPreviewController (QuickLook) in simulator.
Using the iOS 26 beta simulator, I am experiencing a crash using the QLPreviewController. This is easily reproduced using a small sample app and a sample excel file in the bundle. It does work in prior Xcode 16.4 and simulators (18.5). I didn't find any mention of this in Xcode 26 or iOS 26 release notes but I could have missed something. I don't have a spare device to update to iOS 26 and try on a real device so it may just be a simulator issue? Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks. Error: QuickLook/QLHostRemoteViewModel.swift:37: Fatal error: No extensions could be found matching '_AppExtensionQuery(extensionPointIdentifier: "com.apple.quicklook.UIExtensionPoint", predicate: nil, hostAuditToken: nil, extensionPoint: nil, allowsDuplicates: true)' Sample view controller... import UIKit import QuickLook class ViewController: UIViewController, QLPreviewControllerDataSource { var excelFileURL: URL! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Load the Excel file (example: from bundle) if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "file_example_XLSX_100", withExtension: "xlsx") { excelFileURL = url presentPreviewController() } } func presentPreviewController() { let previewController = QLPreviewController() previewController.dataSource = self present(previewController, animated: true, completion: nil) } // MARK: - QLPreviewControllerDataSource func numberOfPreviewItems(in controller: QLPreviewController) -> Int { return 1 } func previewController(_ controller: QLPreviewController, previewItemAt index: Int) -> QLPreviewItem { return excelFileURL as QLPreviewItem } }

iOS 26 regression: Slider does not respect step parameter
In iOS 26, the Slider control no longer respects the step parameter. For example, import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var sliderValue: CGFloat = 16 var body: some View { Slider( value: $sliderValue, in: 0...100, step: 5, onEditingChanged: { editing in print(sliderValue) } ) } } In iOS 18, this prints values like 5, 35, 60, 95, etc. In iOS 26.0 (release version), this prints floats that are not rounded to the nearest 5, and the slider does not snap to values ending in 5.

iPadOS 26 TabBar text color can't be changed
Hello, I have been trying for some time to change the color of native UITabBar in UITabBarController through UITabBarAppearance, but nothing works and the text is still black in the Xcode Beta 3 on iPadOS 26 while it works correctly in the previous OS versions. Here is the code: let color = UIColor.white let stackedAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance() stackedAppearance.normal.iconColor = color stackedAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] stackedAppearance.selected.iconColor = color stackedAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] let inlineAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance() inlineAppearance.normal.iconColor = color inlineAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] inlineAppearance.selected.iconColor = color inlineAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] let tabAppearance = UITabBarAppearance() tabAppearance.compactInlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance tabAppearance.inlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance tabAppearance.stackedLayoutAppearance = stackedAppearance UITabBar.appearance().standardAppearance = tabAppearance UITabBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = tabAppearance

App Shortcuts: Invalid parameter type. AppEntity and AppEnum are the only allowed types...
Hi! So while Date is supported for @Parameter in an App Intent, I just discovered that Xcode will not let me use use it in a parametrized App Shortcut phrase. In my case, I would like to give the option to say "today", tomorrow", or "day after tomorrow" for the date. Am I missing something? Any hints on the best way to approach this?

ios26 NumberPad keyboard issue on iPad
On an iPad running iOS26, there is an issue with the numberPad keyboard I have a UITextField with a keyboard type of .numberPad When I first tap in the field, a new number pad with just numbers (similar to the one that shows up on iPhone) shows up. When I tap again in the field, that number pad goes away. When I tap in the field again, the full keyboard with numbers etc shows up (this is the one that used to always show up pre-iOS26)

dropDestination does not work inside List
I've discovered an issue with using iOS 16's Transferable drag-and-drop APIs for SwiftUI. The dropDestination modifier does not work when applied to a subview of a List. This code below will not work, unless you replace the List with a VStack or any other container (which, of course, removes all list-specific rendering). The draggable modifier will still work and the item will drag, but the dropDestination view won't react to it and neither closure will be called. struct MyView: View { var body: some View { List { Section { Text("drag this title") .font(.largeTitle) .draggable("a title") } Section { Color.pink .frame(width: 400, height: 400) .dropDestination(for: String.self) { receivedTitles, location in true } isTargeted: { print($0) } } } } } Has anyone encountered this bug and perhaps found a workaround?

VisionOS NavigationStack background cannot be removed?
I have a simple example to demonstrate... struct MyView: View { var body: some View { Text("WOW") } } struct MyOtherView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("WOW") } } } On VisionOS, MyOtherView has a glass background effect that cannot be disabled. glassBackgroundEffect(displayMode: .never) .background(.clear), .foregroundColor(.clear), none of them work. I then resorted to the SwiftUIIntrospect package to try set .clear on various child objects of the NavigationStack but nothing is working. I am in control of my own glass containers. I have a couple with space between them, but with the NavigationStack it sets a background behind both of them ruining the effect. This is what MyOtherView renders as: I'm looking for it to be completely transparent except the text. Like the below layout. For now I will have to roll my own navigation.

UICollectionView Move Item Method Not Called in iOS 18
Summary In iOS 18, the UICollectionViewDelegate method collectionView(_:targetIndexPathForMoveOfItemFromOriginalIndexPath:atCurrentIndexPath:toProposedIndexPath:) is not being called when moving items in a UICollectionView. This method works as expected in iOS 17.5 and earlier versions. Steps to Reproduce Create a UICollectionView with drag and drop enabled. Implement the UICollectionViewDelegate method: func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, targetIndexPathForMoveOfItemFromOriginalIndexPath originalIndexPath: IndexPath, atCurrentIndexPath currentIndexPath: IndexPath, toProposedIndexPath proposedIndexPath: IndexPath) -> IndexPath { print("🐸 Move") return proposedIndexPath } Run the app on iOS 18. Attempt to drag and drop items within the collection view. Expected Behavior The method should be called during the drag and drop operation, and "🐸 Move" should be printed to the console. Actual Behavior The method is not called, and nothing is printed to the console. The drag and drop operation still occurs, but without invoking this delegate method. Configuration iOS Version: 18 Xcode Version: Xcode 16.0.0

Request Review alert is unresponsive in iOS 26.1
Try this simple code: import SwiftUI import StoreKit struct ReviewView: View { @Environment(\.requestReview) var requestReview var body: some View { Button("Leave a review") { requestReview() } } } When the Review Alert shows, the "Not Now" button is disabled for some reason!? It was always tappable in all iOS versions that I remember. And there is no way to opt out, unless the user taps on the stars first. Is it a bug or a feature? Thanks for looking into it!

Change to safe area logic on iOS 26
I have a few view controllers in a large UIKit application that previously started showing content right below the bottom of the top navigation toolbar. When testing the same code on iOS 26, these same views have their content extend under the navigation bar and toolbar. I was able to fix it with: if #available(iOS 26, *, *) { self.edgesForExtendedLayout = [.bottom] } when running on iOS 26. I also fixed one or two places where the main view was anchored to self.view.topAnchor instead of self.view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor. Although this seems to work, I wonder if this was an intended change in iOS 26 or just a temporary bug in the beta that will be resolved. Were changes made to the safe area and edgesForExtendedLayout logic in iOS 26? If so, is there a place I can see what the specific changes were, so I know my code is handling it properly? Thanks!

iOS 26 UIKIt: Where's the missing cornerConfiguration property of UIViewEffectView?
In WWDC25 video 284: Build a UIKit app with the new design, there is mention of a cornerConfiguration property on UIVisualEffectView. But this properly isn't documented and Xcode 26 isn't aware of any such property. I'm trying to replicate the results of that video in the section titled Custom Elements starting at the 19:15 point. There is a lot of missing details and typos in the code associated with that video. My attempts with UIGlassEffect and UIViewEffectView do not result in any capsule shapes. I just get rectangles with no rounded corners at all. As an experiment, I am trying to recreate the capsule with the layers/location buttons in the iOS 26 version of the Maps app. I put the following code in a view controller's viewDidLoad method let imgCfgLayer = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(hierarchicalColor: .systemGray) let imgLayer = UIImage(systemName: "square.2.layers.3d.fill", withConfiguration: imgCfgLayer) var cfgLayer = UIButton.Configuration.plain() cfgLayer.image = imgLayer let btnLayer = UIButton(configuration: cfgLayer, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("layer") })) var cfgLoc = UIButton.Configuration.plain() let imgLoc = UIImage(systemName: "location") cfgLoc.image = imgLoc let btnLoc = UIButton(configuration: cfgLoc, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in print("location") })) let bgEffect = UIGlassEffect() bgEffect.isInteractive = true let bg = UIVisualEffectView(effect: bgEffect) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLayer) bg.contentView.addSubview(btnLoc) view.addSubview(bg) btnLayer.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false btnLoc.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false bg.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ btnLayer.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.leadingAnchor), btnLayer.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.trailingAnchor), btnLayer.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.topAnchor), btnLoc.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.centerXAnchor), btnLoc.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: btnLayer.bottomAnchor, constant: 15), btnLoc.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bg.contentView.bottomAnchor), bg.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerXAnchor), bg.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor, constant: 40), ]) The result is pretty close other than the complete lack of capsule shape. What changes would be needed to get the capsule shape? Is this even the proper approach?

Error: QuickLook/QLHostRemoteViewModel.swift:37: Fatal error: No extensions could be found matching '_AppExtensionQuery(extensionPointIdentifier: "com.apple.quicklook.UIExtensionPoint", predicate: nil, hostAuditToken: nil, extensionPoint: nil, allowsDuplicates: true)' Sample view controller... import UIKit import QuickLook class ViewController: UIViewController, QLPreviewControllerDataSource { var excelFileURL: URL! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Load the Excel file (example: from bundle) if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "file_example_XLSX_100", withExtension: "xlsx") { excelFileURL = url presentPreviewController() } } func presentPreviewController() { let previewController = QLPreviewController() previewController.dataSource = self present(previewController, animated: true, completion: nil) } // MARK: - QLPreviewControllerDataSource func numberOfPreviewItems(in controller: QLPreviewController) -> Int { return 1 } func previewController(_ controller: QLPreviewController, previewItemAt index: Int) -> QLPreviewItem { return excelFileURL as QLPreviewItem } }

iOS 26 regression: Slider does not respect step parameter
In iOS 26, the Slider control no longer respects the step parameter. For example, import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var sliderValue: CGFloat = 16 var body: some View { Slider( value: $sliderValue, in: 0...100, step: 5, onEditingChanged: { editing in print(sliderValue) } ) } } In iOS 18, this prints values like 5, 35, 60, 95, etc. In iOS 26.0 (release version), this prints floats that are not rounded to the nearest 5, and the slider does not snap to values ending in 5.

iPadOS 26 TabBar text color can't be changed
Hello, I have been trying for some time to change the color of native UITabBar in UITabBarController through UITabBarAppearance, but nothing works and the text is still black in the Xcode Beta 3 on iPadOS 26 while it works correctly in the previous OS versions. Here is the code: let color = UIColor.white let stackedAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance() stackedAppearance.normal.iconColor = color stackedAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] stackedAppearance.selected.iconColor = color stackedAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] let inlineAppearance = UITabBarItemAppearance() inlineAppearance.normal.iconColor = color inlineAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] inlineAppearance.selected.iconColor = color inlineAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = [ .foregroundColor: color ] let tabAppearance = UITabBarAppearance() tabAppearance.compactInlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance tabAppearance.inlineLayoutAppearance = inlineAppearance tabAppearance.stackedLayoutAppearance = stackedAppearance UITabBar.appearance().standardAppearance = tabAppearance UITabBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = tabAppearance

App Shortcuts: Invalid parameter type. AppEntity and AppEnum are the only allowed types...
Hi! So while Date is supported for @Parameter in an App Intent, I just discovered that Xcode will not let me use use it in a parametrized App Shortcut phrase. In my case, I would like to give the option to say "today", tomorrow", or "day after tomorrow" for the date. Am I missing something? Any hints on the best way to approach this?

ios26 NumberPad keyboard issue on iPad
On an iPad running iOS26, there is an issue with the numberPad keyboard I have a UITextField with a keyboard type of .numberPad When I first tap in the field, a new number pad with just numbers (similar to the one that shows up on iPhone) shows up. When I tap again in the field, that number pad goes away. When I tap in the field again, the full keyboard with numbers etc shows up (this is the one that used to always show up pre-iOS26)

Can you get the new "soft" scroll edge effect for custom safe area inset views?
Hey, The new "soft" scroll edge effect is really cool! But it seems to only appear when you add toolbar items. Is there a way to add it for "custom" views as well, that I place in a safe area inset? For example, the messages app in iOS 26 does this. There's a text field as a safe area inset as well as a soft scroll edge effect. Thanks!

dropDestination does not work inside List
I've discovered an issue with using iOS 16's Transferable drag-and-drop APIs for SwiftUI. The dropDestination modifier does not work when applied to a subview of a List. This code below will not work, unless you replace the List with a VStack or any other container (which, of course, removes all list-specific rendering). The draggable modifier will still work and the item will drag, but the dropDestination view won't react to it and neither closure will be called. struct MyView: View { var body: some View { List { Section { Text("drag this title") .font(.largeTitle) .draggable("a title") } Section { Color.pink .frame(width: 400, height: 400) .dropDestination(for: String.self) { receivedTitles, location in true } isTargeted: { print($0) } } } } } Has anyone encountered this bug and perhaps found a workaround?

VisionOS NavigationStack background cannot be removed?
I have a simple example to demonstrate... struct MyView: View { var body: some View { Text("WOW") } } struct MyOtherView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("WOW") } } } On VisionOS, MyOtherView has a glass background effect that cannot be disabled. glassBackgroundEffect(displayMode: .never) .background(.clear), .foregroundColor(.clear), none of them work. I then resorted to the SwiftUIIntrospect package to try set .clear on various child objects of the NavigationStack but nothing is working. I am in control of my own glass containers. I have a couple with space between them, but with the NavigationStack it sets a background behind both of them ruining the effect. This is what MyOtherView renders as: I'm looking for it to be completely transparent except the text. Like the below layout. For now I will have to roll my own navigation.

UICollectionView Move Item Method Not Called in iOS 18
Summary In iOS 18, the UICollectionViewDelegate method collectionView(_:targetIndexPathForMoveOfItemFromOriginalIndexPath:atCurrentIndexPath:toProposedIndexPath:) is not being called when moving items in a UICollectionView. This method works as expected in iOS 17.5 and earlier versions. Steps to Reproduce Create a UICollectionView with drag and drop enabled. Implement the UICollectionViewDelegate method: func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, targetIndexPathForMoveOfItemFromOriginalIndexPath originalIndexPath: IndexPath, atCurrentIndexPath currentIndexPath: IndexPath, toProposedIndexPath proposedIndexPath: IndexPath) -> IndexPath { print("🐸 Move") return proposedIndexPath } Run the app on iOS 18. Attempt to drag and drop items within the collection view. Expected Behavior The method should be called during the drag and drop operation, and "🐸 Move" should be printed to the console. Actual Behavior The method is not called, and nothing is printed to the console. The drag and drop operation still occurs, but without invoking this delegate method. Configuration iOS Version: 18 Xcode Version: Xcode 16.0.0

Request Review alert is unresponsive in iOS 26.1
Try this simple code: import SwiftUI import StoreKit struct ReviewView: View { @Environment(\.requestReview) var requestReview var body: some View { Button("Leave a review") { requestReview() } } } When the Review Alert shows, the "Not Now" button is disabled for some reason!? It was always tappable in all iOS versions that I remember. And there is no way to opt out, unless the user taps on the stars first. Is it a bug or a feature? Thanks for looking into it!
