It's working well on iOS 17 simulator and device. but crashes on iOS 18 beta. It looks like it crashes on a UIviewcontroller page with a UIcollectionView.

I have a UIViewController that presents a UIPrintInteractionController when a user selects the print button on the UI. The problem is starting in iOS 18 (currently using beta 7) when the print controller is presented the UIViewController's viewWillAppear() is being called. This did not happen in earlier iOS releases and is causing unwanted behavior in the app. Is this a bug or will this be the behavior going forward?

Hello. I'm encountering a strange behavior in iOS 18 and wanted to ask about it. When I run the following code on iOS 18, quotation marks appear in the navigation title. class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() self.title = " " self.view.backgroundColor = .systemBlue } } In versions prior to iOS 18, the title is displayed as intended, with nothing showing up. Could this be an intentional change in iOS 18, or is it a bug?

For a few reasons, we as a team decided to transition away from the SwiftUI.App launch cycle. We need more control and customisation, and managing the scenes directly ourselves was the best way forward. We're now trying to run the app entirely from our own App and Scene delegates, however we've run into a problem: When we update the app on a device from a version that uses SwiftUI.App to a version that uses App and Scene delegates, the first initial launch fails with a black screen. The reason for this is that FrontBoardServices attempts to use the existing UISceneSession after the update, with the SwiftUI.AppSceneDelegate class, instead of calling application(configurationForConnecting:options:). Since SwiftUI.AppSceneDelegate still exists in the scope, the internal property _configurationNeedsReevaluation on UISceneSession returns false and the app attempts to launch from SwiftUI.AppSceneDelegate. As far as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be a way to fix this that doesn't involve invoking the private method -[UISceneSession _updateConfiguration:] to force the configuration to use the correct Scene delegate. if let sceneSession = application.openSessions.first( where: { $0.configuration.delegateClass.map(NSStringFromClass) == "SwiftUI.AppSceneDelegate" } ) { let newConfig = UISceneConfiguration(name: nil, sessionRole: .windowApplication) newConfig.delegateClass = SceneDelegate.self sceneSession.perform(Selector(("_updateConfiguration:")), with: newConfig) } Could you maybe advise on a way forwards?

when I push a UIViewController, the bottom view controller was pushed out of navigationController.

UITextView erroneously overrides string attributes when applying spellchecker annotation attributes. It doesn't need any particular setting. Default UITextView instance with attributed text let textView = UITextView(usingTextLayoutManager: true) textView.spellCheckingType = .yes Once spellcheck attributes get applied, other attributes like foreground color get applied to the misspelled words. This behavior happens only on Mac Catalyst, and started to appear on macOS 14 or newer. Please check the Xcode project that demonstrates the issue https://github.com/user-attachments/files/16689336/TextEditor-FB14165227.zip Open TextEditor project Select "My Mac (Mac Catalyst)" build destination Run the project. A window with a text area should appear Select the whole text (either using mouse or keyboard command+a) Observe how foregroundColor changes to text (this is the issue) That eventually led to crash 💥 This bug is reported to Apple FB14165227

We use the triple column layout and when running our app under Sequoia Beta, the Secondary view controller's navigation bar is not shown initially. If a view is pushed inside the secondary (which contains a UINavigationController), and then popped again, the navigation bar is shown.

When reordering items within a table view, I can use tableView:targetIndexPathForMoveFromRowAtIndexPath: to adjust the destination index path. Is there a way to adjust the destination index path when dropping onto a table view if the drag was initiated in a different view? For example, if I'm dropping an object into a table view where the rows are sorted alphabetically, I want the gap to appear in the location where the item is going to end up, regardless of which row the dragged item is being dragged / dropped at.

I create a UIKit PullDown menu (in a positionMenu button), with the following code: func setupPullDownMenu() { let menu1 = UIAction(title: "Menu1") { [self] _ in // some code } let menu2 = UIAction(title: "Menu2") { [self] _ in // some code } let menu3 = UIAction(title: "Menu3") { [self] _ in // some code } let menu = UIMenu(title: "Positions", children: [menu1, menu2, menu3]) positionMenu.menu = menu positionMenu.showsMenuAsPrimaryAction = true }   In Portrait, options are listed as Menu1, Menu2, Menu3 But in Landscape it is the reverse: Menu3, Menu2, Menu1 I use Xcode 16.1ß and iOS 17.0 simulator Is it the expected behaviour ?

Hi folks, I'm struggling with an issue on MacCatalyst. I'm using a dynamic menu that is supposed to show the current state of a setting (state = .on / .off). The UIDeferredMenuElement works great on iOS, the closure is called on each display of the (context) menu. On MacCatalyst however - where I use the menu as a submenu in the main menu - the closure is called only once on first menu display. The system seems to show a cached menu item even though I'm using UIDeferredMenuElement.uncached. Here's the relevant code: func getMenuElement() { let element = UIDeferredMenuElement.uncached { completion in let modeString = mode.myLocalizedDescription let trackingMode = <current setting> let mode = <menu item setting option> let state = trackingMode == mode ? .on : .off let action = UIAction(title: modeString, image: <image>, state: state) { _ in viewController.setUserTrackingMode(mode) } completion([action]) } return element } Any ideas how to trick the system into generating the dynamic menu item on each menu display?

Have the requirements to support swipe to dismiss from a quick-look view controller changed in iOS18? I am noticing that my app no longer supports gestural dismissal in an iOS18 build. Not this is a QLPreviewController presented from a UIViewController presented in a SwiftUI view hierarchy as part of a ViewControllerRepresentable.

I am writing to report an issue I encountered with iOS 18 beta that affects my application, which has been available on the App Store for over two years and currently has over 60,000 active users. My application utilizes a UITabBarController to manage multiple tabs, where each tab hosts a UIViewController embedded within a UINavigationController. The application operates in two different states, where users may have either 5, 4, or 3 tabBarItems depending on their configuration. The issue arises when fewer than 5 tabs are present. In these cases, I add child view controllers to the UITabBarController to ensure they are displayed above the tab bar, rather than below it. The relevant code snippet is as follows: tabBarController.addChild(childController) tabBarController.view.addSubview(childController.view) Prior to iOS 18, this implementation functioned as expected. However, with the release of iOS 18, adding a child view controller to the UITabBarController results in the child being incorrectly added as a UITabBarItem. This misbehavior leads to an application crash when the unintended tab is selected. The crash trace is as follows: "Inconsistency in UITabBar items and view controllers detected. No view controller matches the UITabBarItem '<UITabBarItem: 0x142d9c480> selected'." I have attached screenshots from iOS 18 and previous versions to illustrate the issue, which compares the expected behavior in earlier iOS versions with the problematic behavior in iOS 18. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to any guidance or resolution you can provide.

I'd like to receive files in my app, but only certain UIScenes can receive a file. How do I tell the system which of the UIScenes in my app can receive that file? How does the system pick a scene? I've tried using UISceneActivationConditions(). Here is what I put in the scenes that can receive files: var preferredActivatePredicates = [NSPredicate]() var canActivatePredicates = [NSPredicate]() // Any scene *can* be activated at any time canActivatePredicates.append(NSPredicate(value: true)) if hasWriteAccess { // We are also the preferrred scene for receiving files for fileExtension in ["png", "jpeg", "jpg", "pdf"] { preferredActivatePredicates.append(NSPredicate(format: "SELF ENDSWITH[c] '.%@'", fileExtension)) } } let conditions = UISceneActivationConditions() conditions.canActivateForTargetContentIdentifierPredicate = NSCompoundPredicate(orPredicateWithSubpredicates: canActivatePredicates) conditions.prefersToActivateForTargetContentIdentifierPredicate = NSCompoundPredicate(orPredicateWithSubpredicates: preferredActivatePredicates) scene.activationConditions = conditions Unfortunately, this does not seem to have an effect. It does not activate the hasWriteAccess scenes for func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) Is there any way to tell what content identifier the system is using when a file share activates an app? Thank you for your help!

The question is: We did not add "GameController framework", but we do not know why the "GameController framework" is loaded at startup. I am checking the launch time of our app, using Instruments->App launch I was confused to find the GameConroller framework loaded I check the project, in the plist file, no configuration GCSupportedGameControllers, GCSupportsControllerUserInteraction related key. What else causes the GameController framework to load?

Instead of implementing a textview from scratch (UITextInput it a lot of work/boilerplate) It makes sense for me to subclass UITextView. However, when subclassing it seems this is limited to TextKit 1 only, I get an assertion failure: *** Assertion failure in -[_UITextKit1LayoutController initWithTextView:textContainer:], _UITextKit1LayoutController.m:72 I thought I would just need to call the super init: super.init(usingTextLayoutManager: true) But this isn't a designated initialiser: Must call a designated initializer of the superclass 'UITextView' Is there a way to do this and override the layout manager so that it uses TextKit 2 in the subclass? (My aim is to then draw the fragments manually using TextKit2 to get a custom layout while ultimately using all of the UITextView implementation as 99% of it is what I want - other than custom drawing of text fragments). My code is below: class DocumentTextView: UITextView { private let _textLayoutManager = NSTextLayoutManager() private var textContentStorage: NSTextContentStorage { textLayoutManager!.textContentManager as! NSTextContentStorage } override var textLayoutManager: NSTextLayoutManager? { _textLayoutManager } init() { let textContainer = NSTextContainer(size: .zero) super.init(frame: .zero, textContainer: textContainer) _textLayoutManager.textContainer = textContainer textContentStorage.attributedString = NSAttributedString(string: text, attributes: [ .foregroundColor: UIColor.label, ]) textContentStorage.addTextLayoutManager(_textLayoutManager) } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } }

I made a custom slider by subclassing UISlider, and I'm trying to add scrubbing functionality to it, but for some reason the scrubbing is barely even noticeable at 0.1? In my code, I tried multiplying change in x distance by the scrubbing value, but it doesn't seem to work. Also, when I manually set the scrubbing speed to a lower value such as 0.01, it does go slower but it looks really laggy and weird?? What am I doing wrong?

Can I ask why Apple added a new type UITextContentType - birthdate, but when you set it for a text field, and then become in that text field, the system doesn't offer your date of birth ? I have already checked everything, the date of birth is set everywhere, I have created a new test application, only with one text field, I set it type “birthdate” and nothing offers, with all other types of fields and their setting, everything works fine. And there is no information about it anywhere on the internet. And also, if you go to sites through safari, and becomes in the field to enter the date of birth, the system offers autofill, but in the application does not.

Tab bars on iPadOS 18 have moved to the top of the screen. They now share space with navigation bars. We have added calls to setTabBarHidden(_:animated:) alongside existing calls to setNavigationBarHidden(_:animated:) in pushed view controller's viewWillAppear(_:) methods to manage the appearance of the tab bar and navigation bar within navigation controllers. This results in layout issues with the safe area and navigation bar. I've attached screenshots from an example app demonstrating the issue. How can we manage the appearance of both the navigation bar and tab bar so that they share the same space when visible, but are properly hidden and excluded from the safe area when not? /// The root view controller shows both the navigation bar and tab bar class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillAppear(animated) navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: animated) tabBarController?.setTabBarHidden(false, animated: animated) } } /// The second view controller hides both the navigation bar and tab bar class ViewController2: UIViewController { override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillAppear(animated) navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: animated) tabBarController?.setTabBarHidden(true, animated: animated) } @IBAction func customBackButtonTapped(_ sender: Any) { navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true) } } /// The third view controller shows the navigation bar but hides the tab bar class ViewController3: UIViewController { override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillAppear(animated) navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: animated) tabBarController?.setTabBarHidden(true, animated: animated) } }

I'm trying to unpack this sentence Note that after adding a second text container to the layout manager, the text views become uneditable and unselectable. Found on this example code: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/textkit/display_text_with_a_custom_layout I'm implementing my own UITextInput which makes use of the example code setup to replicate a multi-page text editor (kind of like a basic version of Pages/Word) Each page has its own NSTextContainer which gets added to one NSLayoutManager. The code works and my views are rendering text across each page, however, only the first text view is editable. It appears this is "by design" (?) How do we get around this? Is there another level we have to drop down to enable multiple editing containers? The sample code is wayback in iOS 13, so it would seem very odd if the capability of multiple editable text fields/containers was impossible to achieve.
