Is it possible to embed dependencies within a .xcframework?
I'm creating a .xcframework in order to deliver an api/functionality to a customer for inclusion into an app. I'm doing it as a .xcframework as I want it to be a binary so that the source code isn't accessable. The xcframework has dependencies on modules which are installed via SPM (there are a few, an example is PhoneNumberKit) When I build the xcframework and then add it to a test program and invoke its api then there's a run time error saying "PhoneNumberKit/resource_bundle_accessor.swift:44: Fatal error: unable to find bundle named PhoneNumberKit_PhoneNumberKit" How can I build the xcframework so that its dependencies are included within it? (Stepping back a bit, is an xcframework an appropriate approach for this?)

Keyboard fails to appear after converting app to UIScene lifecycle
Getting this in log any time I try to start typing anything into a UITextField: First responder issue detected: non-key window attempting reload - allowing due to manual keyboard (first responder window is &lt;UIWindow: 0x10e016880; frame = (0 0; 1133 744); gestureRecognizers = &lt;NSArray: 0x10ba53850&gt;; backgroundColor = &lt;UIDynamicProviderColor: 0x108563370; provider = &lt;NSMallocBlock: 0x11755bd50&gt;&gt;; layer = &lt;UIWindowLayer: 0x10ba84190&gt;&gt;, key window is ) I'm suspicious of the empty "key window is" field. Everything else in the app is working fine. But I cannot figure out why this fails to show the keyboard, and no keyboard notifications are being received by the app. What could it be?

Contact UISearchBar missing.
Feedback id: FB16140301 Below are the steps to reproduce the bug in Contacts app. Open Contacts app. Now search for a contact and didSelect that contact. Now slightly hold swipe right(from view's center leading position) as to pop the view but not fully swipe, now release the finger and you can see the back nav bar button missing and tapping the back button position also doesn't perform dismiss action. Now do fully swipe from left to right to dismiss(pop) current view. Here you can see the search bar missing.-> That's the bug.

iOS26 beta ToolbarItem with placement to principal width is not fill to screen
I’m trying to add a TextField to the toolbar using .principal placement, and I want it to either fill the screen width or expand based on the surrounding content. However, it’s not resizing as expected — the TextField only resizes correctly when I provide a hardcoded width value. This behavior was working fine in previous versions of Xcode, but seems to be broken in Xcode 26. Not sure if this is an intentional change or a bug. i am using iOS26 beta and Xcode 26 beta struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") } .padding() .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) { HStack { TextField("Search", text: .constant("")) .textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) // .frame(width: 300) Button("cancel") { } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) } } } } #Preview { NavigationView { ContentView() } }

Is it possible to scan for nearby WiFi networks and connect to a device in AP mode on iOS?
In our iOS application, we need to list available WiFi networks so that users can select one for device configuration. Here's the workflow: Initially, the hardware device acts as a WiFi Access Point (AP). The app should scan for nearby WiFi networks to detect the device's AP. The app connects temporarily to this AP and sends the selected WiFi credentials to the device. The device then connects to the selected WiFi network and stops broadcasting its AP. Is this flow achievable on iOS? We understand that Apple restricts access to WiFi scanning APIs — are there any supported methods (e.g., using NEHotspotHelper) or entitlements (such as MFi) that could enable this?

Feedback on the new Camera app icon in iOS 26
I’m currently using the iOS 26 Developer Beta and noticed the new icon design for the Camera app. Personally, I preferred the previous icon it looked cleaner, more elegant, and felt more in line with Apple’s signature iOS design language. The new icon feels more like something you’d expect from Android. It lacks the minimalist, refined style that usually defines iOS icons. I understand UI evolves over time, but this change feels like a step away from what makes Apple’s design philosophy unique. Just wanted to share this honest feedback as a long-time user and developer. Thanks for considering!

Unable to find Slider/UISlider neutralValue
An WWDC 25 a neutral value was demonstrated that allows the Slider to be 'coloured in' from the point of the neutral value to the current thumb position. Trying to use this in Dev release 1 I get errors saying no such modifier. Was this functionality released in Dev Release 1 or am I using it incorrectly?

How to initialize OpenIntent parameter when returning OpensIntent in perform
I have an app that lets you create cars. I have a CarEntity, an OpenCarIntent, and a CreateCarIntent. I want to support the Open When Run option when creating a car. I understand to do this, you just update the return type of your perform function to include & OpensIntent, then change your return value to include opensIntent: OpenCarIntent(target: carEntity). When I do this, I get a compile-time error: Cannot convert value of type 'CarEntity' to expected argument type 'IntentParameter<CarEntity>' What am I doing wrong here? struct CreateCarIntent: ForegroundContinuableIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Create Car" @Parameter(title: "Name") var name: String @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<CarEntity> & OpensIntent { let managedObjectContext = PersistenceController.shared.container.viewContext let car = Car(context: managedObjectContext) car.name = name try await managedObjectContext.perform { try managedObjectContext.save() } let carEntity = CarEntity(car: car) return .result( value: carEntity, opensIntent: OpenCarIntent(target: carEntity) // FIXME: Won't compile ) } } struct OpenCarIntent: OpenIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Open Car" @Parameter(title: "Car") var target: CarEntity @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { await UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string: "carapp://cars/view?id=\(target.id)")!) return .result() } }

How to listen for Locale change event in iOS using NSLocale.currentLocaleDidChangeNotification?
I have the following function private func SetupLocaleObserver () { NotificationCenter.default.addObserver ( forName: NSLocale.currentLocaleDidChangeNotification, object: nil, queue: .main ) {_ in print ("Locale changed to: \(Locale.current.identifier)"); } } I call this function inside the viewDidLoad () method of my view controller. The expectation was that whenever I change the system or app-specific language preference, the locale gets changed, and this change triggers my closure which should print "Locale changed to: " on the console. However, the app gets terminated with a SIGKILL whenever I change the language from the settings. So, it is observed that sometimes my closure runs, while most of the times it does not run - maybe the app dies even before the closure is executed. So, the question is, what is the use of this particular notification if the corresponding closure isn't guaranteed to be executed before the app dies? Or am I using it the wrong way?

Xcode26 build app with iOS26, UISplitViewController UI issue
Our project using UISplitViewController as the root view controller for whole app. And when using the xocde26 to build app in iOS26, the layout of page is uncorrect. for iPhone, when launch app and in portrait mode, the app only show a blank page: and when rotate app to landscape, the first view controller of UISplitViewController's viewControllers will float on second view controller: and this float behavior also happens in iPad: below is the demo code: AppDelegate.swift: import UIKit @main class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { let window: UIWindow = UIWindow() func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool { let vc = SplitViewController(primary: TabBarViewController(), secondary: ViewController()) window.rootViewController = vc window.makeKeyAndVisible() return true } } SplitViewController: import UIKit class SplitViewController: UISplitViewController { init(primary: UIViewController, secondary: UIViewController) { super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil) preferredDisplayMode = .oneBesideSecondary presentsWithGesture = false delegate = self viewControllers = [primary, secondary] } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() } } extension SplitViewController: UISplitViewControllerDelegate { } TabBarViewController.swift: import UIKit class FirstViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .red tabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Home", image: UIImage(systemName: "house"), tag: 0) } } class SecondViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .purple tabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: "Setting", image: UIImage(systemName: "gear"), tag: 1) } } class TabBarViewController: UITabBarController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let firstVC = FirstViewController() let secondVC = SecondViewController() tabBar.backgroundColor = .orange viewControllers = [firstVC, secondVC] } } ViewController.swift: import UIKit class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.backgroundColor = .systemPink } } And I have post a feedback in Feedback Assistant(id: FB18004520), the demo project code can be found there.

browser.runtime.onMessage in content script intermittently fails on iOS 18.5 (Safari Web Extensions)
Hi everyone, I’m encountering a critical reliability issue with message passing in my Safari Web Extension on iOS 18.4.1 and iOS 18.5. In my extension, I’m using the standard messaging API. The background script sends a message to the content script using browser.tabs.sendMessage(...), and the content script registers a listener via: browser.runtime.onMessage.addListener(handler); This setup has been working reliably in all prior versions of iOS. However, after updating to iOS 18.4.1 and 18.5, I’ve noticed the following behavior: ✅ The content script is successfully injected, and onMessage.addListener is registered (I see logging confirming this). ✅ The background script sends the message using the correct tabId (also confirmed via logs). ❌ The content script’s onMessage listener is not consistently triggered. ⚠️ This issue is intermittent, sometimes the message is received, sometimes it is silently dropped. ❌ No exceptions or errors are thrown in either script, the message appears to be sent, but not picked up from the content script message listener.

How to replace layoutManager with textLayoutManager for a flexible dynamic height UITextView
In order to create a UITextView like that of the Messages app whose height grows to fits its contents (number of lines), I subclassed UITextView and customized the intrinsicContentSize like so: override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize { var size = super.intrinsicContentSize if size.height == UIView.noIntrinsicMetric { layoutManager.glyphRange(for: textContainer) size.height = layoutManager.usedRect(for: textContainer).height + textContainerInset.top + textContainerInset.bottom } return size } As noted at WWDC, accessing layoutManager will force TextKit 1, we should instead use textLayoutManager. How can this code be migrated to support TextKit 2?
