Hello, I've a question about performance when trying to render lots of items coming from SwiftData via a @Query on a SwiftUI List. Here's my setup:
// Item.swift:
@Model final class Item: Identifiable {
var timestamp: Date
var isOptionA: Bool
init() {
self.timestamp = Date()
self.isOptionA = Bool.random()
}
}
// Menu.swift
enum Menu: String, CaseIterable, Hashable, Identifiable {
var id: String { rawValue }
case optionA
case optionB
case all
var predicate: Predicate<Item> {
switch self {
case .optionA: return #Predicate { $0.isOptionA }
case .optionB: return #Predicate { !$0.isOptionA }
case .all: return #Predicate { _ in true }
}
}
}
// SlowData.swift
@main
struct SlowDataApp: App {
var sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = {
let schema = Schema([Item.self])
let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false)
return try! ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration])
}()
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
.modelContainer(sharedModelContainer)
}
}
// ContentView.swift
struct ContentView: View {
@Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext
@State var selection: Menu? = .optionA
var body: some View {
NavigationSplitView {
List(Menu.allCases, selection: $selection) { menu in
Text(menu.rawValue).tag(menu)
}
} detail: {
DemoListView(selectedMenu: $selection)
}.onAppear {
// Do this just once
// (0..<15_000).forEach { index in
// let item = Item()
// modelContext.insert(item)
// }
}
}
}
// DemoListView.swift
struct DemoListView: View {
@Binding var selectedMenu: Menu?
@Query private var items: [Item]
init(selectedMenu: Binding<Menu?>) {
self._selectedMenu = selectedMenu
self._items = Query(filter: selectedMenu.wrappedValue?.predicate,
sort: \.timestamp)
}
var body: some View {
// Option 1: touching `items` = slow!
List(items) { item in
Text(item.timestamp.description)
}
// Option 2: Not touching `items` = fast!
// List {
// Text("Not accessing `items` here")
// }
.navigationTitle(selectedMenu?.rawValue ?? "N/A")
}
}
When I use Option 1 on DemoListView, there's a noticeable delay on the navigation. If I use Option 2, there's none. This happens both on Debug builds and Release builds, just FYI because on Xcode 16 Debug builds seem to be slower than expected: https://indieweb.social/@curtclifton/113273571392595819
I've profiled it and the SwiftData fetches seem blazing fast, the Hang occurs when accessing the items property from the List. Is there anything I'm overlooking or it's just as fast as it can be right now?

Do you guys know how to fix the render of the text in the accessory view ? If I force the color of text to be .black it work but it will break dark mode, but forcing it .black : .white on color scheme changes makes white to still adapt to what is behind it I have noticed that Apple Music doesn’t have that artifact and it seems to break when images are behind the accessory view

My app (App ID: 6757516331) has been stuck in "Waiting for Review" since February 3rd. It has been over a week, and I have not received any updates yet.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm posting as new in the hope someone might have more up-to-date information, as I'm pulling out what little hair I have left.
I'm using Storekit 2, testing in Xcode with a local Storekit config file. I have created a very minimal system to investigate this issue. I have a SwiftUI-based window using SubscriptionStoreView, and my app set up with the usual listener. I have four types of auto renewing subscription, configured in the local Storekit config file.
With my app running, I subscribe to the lowest-level subscription I offer, via the SubscriptionStoreView. Notification of the inital purchase arrives, but subsequent auto-renewals do not trigger any action in my listener for Transaction.updates. They arrive as expected in the Transaction Manager. Radio silence in my listener.
If I upgrade one subscription (via my SubscriptionStoreView) I see this reflected in the UI immediately, and also in the Transaction Manager, but the update that arrives in Transaction.updates refers to the old subscription, and has the isUpgraded flag set to false.
Also, can anyone remind me what the grey warning triangle next to entries in the Transaction Manager means. I'm assuming it means unfinished, as that's what the sidebar indicates.
Can the testing system really be this broken, or am I wildly off the mark? Unless I'm doing something fundamentally wrong this all seems extremely flakey, but happy to be proved wrong.
I find this all rather unsettling if I can't test reliably, and am concerned that I my app may end up in this situation if I use storekit 2:

Reference: FB21797091 / Related to thread 807695
Hello,
I have already submitted a report regarding this issue via Feedback Assistant (FB21797091), but I would like to share the technical details here to seek further insights or potential workarounds.
We are experiencing a technical regression where Universal Links and Shared Web Credentials fail to resolve for Internationalized Domain Names (IDN) specifically on iOS 16 and later. This issue appears to be identical to the one discussed in thread 807695 (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/807695).
Technical Contrast: What works vs. What fails On the exact same app build and iOS 16+ devices, we observe a clear distinction:
Standard ASCII Domain (onelink.me): Works perfectly. (Proves App ID and Entitlements are correct)
Internal Development Domain (Standard ASCII): Works perfectly. (Proves our server-side AASA hosting and HTTPS configuration are correct)
Japanese IDN Domain (xn--[punycode].com): Fails completely. (Status: "unspecified")
Note: This IDN setup was last confirmed to work correctly on iOS 15 in April 2025. Currently, we are unable to install the app on iOS 15 devices for live comparison, but the regression starting from iOS 16 is consistent.
This "Triple Proof" clearly isolates the issue: the failure is strictly tied to the swcd daemon's handling of IDN/Punycode domains.
Validation & Diagnostics:
Validation: Our Punycode domain passes all technical checks on the http://Branch.io AASA Validator (Valid HTTPS, valid JSON structure, and Content-Type: application/json).
sysdiagnose: Running swcutil on affected iOS 16+ devices shows the status as "unspecified" for the IDN domain.
Symptoms: Universal Links consistently open in Safari instead of the app, the Smart App Banner is not displayed, and Shared Web Credentials for AutoFill do not function.
Request for Resolution:
We request a fix for this regression in the swcd daemon. If this behavior is a specification for security reasons, please provide developers with a supported method or workaround to ensure IDN domains function correctly.
We have sysdiagnose logs available for further investigation. Thank you.

It seems that the DMA request address initiated by FPGA exceeded 32 bits, which was intercepted by PCIe root port and resulted in a kernel panic.This is also the case on macOS (M2).
I have tried the following code interface:
IOBufferMemoryDescriptor:
a. withCapacity(bufferSize, kIODirectionInOut, true);
b. inTaskWithPhysicalMask(kernel_task, kIODirectionInOut, bufferSize, 0x00000000FFFFFFFFULL)。
The physical addresses of the constructed descriptors are all >32 bits;
IODMACommand:
a. withSpecification(kIODMACommandOutputHost64, 64, 0, IODMACommand::kMapped, 0, 0),gen64IOVMSegments() The allocated IOVM address must be>32 bits, which will generate a kernel panic when used later.
b.withSpecification(kIODMACommandOutputHost32, 32, 0, IODMACommand::kMapped, 0, 0),gen32IOVMSegments() The allocation of IOVM failed with error code kIOReturnenMessageTooLarge.
So after the above attempts, the analysis shows that the strategy of Dart+PCIe root port on macOS (Apple Silicon) is causing the failure of 64 bit DMA address transfer.
I have two questions:
a. Does Dart in macOS (Apple Silicon) definitely not allocate <=32-bit IOVM addresses?
b. Is there any other way to achieve DMA transfer for FGPA devices on macOS (Apple Silicon)?
Thanks!

My HomePod mini is now on version 16.4, so the the temperature and humidity sensors are enabled. The data properly shows up in the Home app on my various devices.
In my HomeKit iPad app running on Mac Catalyst, however, the data does not show up. I would expect the HomePod mini to show up in HMHome.accessories with a service of type HMServiceTypeTempatureSensor. I see all of my other HomeKit accessories, just not the HomePod mini.
I have tried with the latest Xcode (14.3) and highest available iOS Target and Minimum Deployment (16.4), macOS version 13.3. I have not, as of this writing, upgraded my HomeKit architecture, however.
Note that I haven't tried the app on an actual iPad (and the iOS simulator doesn't expose my HomeKit environment.)
Hi,
After the release of macOS Tahoe 26.2. We are seeing memory leaks if our Network Protection Extension is used alongside the Apple Built In Firewall, a second Security Solution that does Network Protection and a VPN. Our NEXT, socketfilterfw and the other security solution consume instead of a few MB of Memory now multiple Gigabytes of Memory. This issue started with the public release of macOS Tahoe 26.2, this issue was not present in earlier versions of macOS and the same set of Software. Just testing our solution by itself will not show this behavior. I unfortunately can't try to reproduce the issue on my test device that runs the latest 26.3 beta as I do not have the third party software installed there and I can't get it.
Our Network extension implements depending on the license and enabled features:
NEFilterDataProvider
NEDNSProxyProvider
NETransparentProxyProvider
For all man in the middle Use Cases we are using Network Framework, to communicate with the peers. And leaks suggest that the there is a memory leak within internals of the Network Framework.
Here is a shortened sample of the leaks output of our Network extension. However, the third party NEXT does show the same leaks.
More details can be found on the Feedback with the ID FB21649104
snippet is blocking post? sensitive language
Does anyone see similar issues or has an idea what could cause this issue, except a regression of the Network.framework introduced with macOS Tahoe 26.2?
Best Regards,
Timo
NSWindow objects with custom styleMask configurations seem to behave erratically in macOS Tahoe 26.3 RC.
For example an NSWindow is not resizable after issuing .styleMask.remove(.titled) or some NSWindow-s become totally unresponsive (the NSWindow becomes transparent to mouse events) with custom styleMask-s.
This is a radical change compared to how all previous macOS versions or the 26.3 beta3 worked and seriously affects apps that might use custom NSWindows - this includes some system utilities, OSD/HUD apps etc, actually breaking some apps.
Such fundamental compatibility altering changes should not be introduced in an RC stage (if this is intentional and not a bug) imho.
Hey,
so I wanted to pull from the Github project repository and XCode asked me login again. Forgot my password so I tried a wrong one and now it keeps asking for my Username and Access token, when I actually just want to login with my password. Doesn't let me choose between the too, not even when adding the account through preferences. Anyone know how to just login with password and the reason for this -pardon me- absolutely idiotic choice of not letting the user choose?
I work on some proprietary codebases and can only use private AI services with them (currently MiniMax M2.1 and GLM 4.7). It all works great with both Claude Code and OpenCode agents, and I'd like to leverage the new agentic capabilities that are now in Xcode 26.3.
I'm not seeing any option to connect to OpenCode, and both the Anthropic and OpenAI providers require an enterprise account (which I don't have access to).
Are there any options that I'm missing here?

Environment:
Xcode 26
iOS 26
Also tested on iOS 18 (working correctly)
Description:
I'm experiencing a behavior change with URL(fileURLWithPath:) when the filename starts with a tilde (~) character.
On iOS 18, passing a filename like ~MyFile.txt to URL(fileURLWithPath:) treats the tilde as a literal character. However, on iOS 26, the same code resolves the tilde as the home directory, resulting in unexpected output.
Minimal Example:
let filename = "~MyFile.txt"
let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: filename)
print(url.lastPathComponent)
Expected Result (iOS 18):
~MyFile.txt
Actual Result (iOS 26):
924AF0C4-C3CD-417A-9D5F-733FBB8FCF29
The tilde is being resolved to the app's container directory, and lastPathComponent returns the container UUID instead of the filename.
Questions:
1. Is this an intentional behavior change in iOS 26? 2. Is there documentation about this change? 3. What is the recommended approach for extracting filename components when the filename may contain special characters like ~?
Workaround:
Using NSString.lastPathComponent works correctly on both iOS versions:
let filename = "~MyFile.txt"
let result = (filename as NSString).lastPathComponent
// Returns: "~MyFile.txt" ✅
Is this the recommended approach going forward?
These have been stuck in progress for a long time. Usually this process is fairly quick for this app:
id: 92caae7f-1796-4928-bb35-72f5f2667786
id: 3645e93f-a8ac-4826-8a4a-690f980dde8e
id: 3645e93f-a8ac-4826-8a4a-690f980dde8e
What can be done, it is holding back deployments :(

Hello,
We're developing endpoint security software using the Endpoint Security framework, and we've encountered challenges with the behavior change in macOS 15 regarding provisioning UDIDs in cloned VMs.
The Change
Prior to macOS 15, cloning a VM preserved its UDID (format: 0000FE00-9C4ED9F68BBDC72D). Starting with macOS 15, cloned VMs receive a new UDID generated from the host's Secure Enclave (format: b043d27202c7ac37ca3c6b82673302225485cae9), making each clone effectively a new device.
Our Workflow
We maintain a clean base VM image and clone it for each test run. We add the base VM's UDID to our provisioning profile once, then create clones which (previously) retained that same UDID, allowing us to start new testing cycles without re-registering devices.
This is essential because our product involves low-level system integration through the Endpoint Security framework, and if something goes wrong during development, it has the potential to affect system stability. To prevent any cascading issues between test runs or different product versions, we need each test to start from a known clean state rather than reusing the same VM.
The Challenge
With each VM clone generating a new UDID, we're hitting Apple's device registration limits quickly. This particularly impacts:
New team members who spin up VMs for the first time and can't run signed builds
Our CI/CD pipeline where multiple test environments need provisioning profiles
Developers testing different branches who need separate clean environments
Current Workaround
We've found that VMs created on macOS 14 and upgraded to macOS 15+ retain their original UDID format. However, we're concerned this workaround may stop working in future macOS versions, which would leave us without a viable path forward.
If the workaround stops working, our fallback would be signing each CI build with a Developer ID signature to allow running on any device. However, we'd prefer to avoid this as it would significantly increase load on Apple's signing infrastructure for what are essentially internal test builds.
We completely understand the security reasoning behind tying UDIDs to the host's Secure Enclave for Apple Account support. However, for development workflows that don't require Apple Account features in VMs but do require clean, isolated test environments, the previous behavior was quite valuable.
Question
Is there a recommended approach for teams in our situation? We're happy to explore alternative workflows if there's a pattern we're missing, or we'd be glad to provide more context if this is a use case Apple is considering for future updates.
Thanks for any guidance you can provide!

I’m developing a share extension for iOS 26 with Xcode 26. When the extension’s sheet appears, it always shows a full white background, even though iOS 26 introduces a new “Liquid Glass” effect for partial sheets.
Expected:
The sheet background should use the iOS 26 glassmorphism effect as seen in full apps.
Actual behavior:
Custom sheets in my app get the glass effect, but the native system sheet in the share extension always opens as plain white.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a share extension using UIKit
Present any UIViewController as the main view
Set modalPresentationStyle = .pageSheet (or leave as default)
Observe solid white background, not glassmorphism
Sample code:
swift
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.backgroundColor = .clear
preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width, height: 300)
}
Troubleshooting attempted:
Tried adding UIVisualEffectView with system blur/materials
Removed all custom backgrounds
Set modalPresentationStyle explicitly
Questions:
Is it possible to enable or force the Liquid Glass effect in share extensions on iOS 26?
Is this a limitation by design or a potential bug?
Any workaround to make extension sheet backgrounds match system glass appearance?
I have TabView in ContentView and I want to add TabView for OnboardingView in OtherView, every things work, but it is throw error for TabView in OtherView like "Trailing closure passed to parameter of type 'Int' that does not accept a closure" I do not know why? Any idea?
ContentView:
struct TabView : View {
var body: some View{
VStack(spacing: 0){
.......
}
OtherView:
VStack {
TabView {
ForEach(onboardingData) { onboardingItem in
OnboardingCard(onboardingItem: onboardingItem)
}
}
.tabViewStyle(PageTabViewStyle(indexDisplayMode: .automatic))
.indexViewStyle(PageIndexViewStyle (backgroundDisplayMode:
.always))
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
I've recently installed 26.1 Beta 3 alongside stable 26.0.1
When building my app with 26.0.1 the final .ipa size is ~17mb, however after building my app with 26.1 Beta 3 the size has increased up to ~22mb
The main difference is Assets.car blowing from 1.1mb to 5.6mb (or 8.6mb if I include all icons settings). Upon examining I've found new liquid glass .icon file duplicating itself multiple times as png variants (any, dark, tinted, etc).
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
For testing permission response we can use the sandbox account
However, when testing permission requests using the AskCenter API, none of the ask API works for me in xcode 26.2 rc and iOS 26.2 rc.
For SignificantAppUpdateTopic, I got errors like "The user is in a region that does not support this type of ask" in the console log, but I've already set my billing address to Texas.
For CommunicationTopic, the console shows several XPC-related errors, and I’m not sure which of them are relevant.
Both of them show an alert view of "Can't ask, An unknown error occurred"
Can someone help to guide us how to test the request flow?
Thanks
