Running up Xcode 16.2 Beta 1, a lot of my code that used onPreferenceChange in Views to change @State properties of those views, such as some notion of a measured width is now complaining about mutating the @MainActor-isolated properties from Sendable closures.
Now I've got to hoop-jump to change @State properties from onPreferenceChange? OK, but seems a bit of extra churn.

We're seeing sporadic crashes on devices running iOS 18.1 - both beta and release builds (22B83). The stack trace is always identical, a snippet of it below. As you can tell from the trace, it's happening in places we embed SwiftUI into UIKit via UIHostingController.
Anyone else seeing this?

On iOS you can create a new Lock Screen that contains a bunch of emoji, and they'll get put on the screen in a repeating pattern, like this:
When you have two or more emoji they're placed in alternating patterns, like this:
How do I write something like that? I need to handle up to three emoji, and I need the canvas as large as the device's screen, and it needs to be saved as an image. Thanks!
(I've already written an emojiToImage() extension on String, but it just plonks one massive emoji in the middle of an image, so I'm doing something wrong there.)
In the Explore enhancements to App Intents WWDC video at the 11 minute mark I see this UI in the Widget configuration.
My question is, how do I configure my Widget to use this UI in the intent configuration? I tried using all different sorts of types and am unable to reproduce it in my app
Hi, after updating Xcode to Version 16.1, I started a new multiplatform project targeting macOS and iOS. Everything worked fine until I added Firebase SDK 11.4 (using Swift Package Manager). Now, I'm facing an issue where the preview is not possible with "My Mac" after adding Firebase SDK, even with a very simple view like:
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
VStack {
Image(systemName: "globe")
.imageScale(.large)
.foregroundStyle(.tint)
Text("Hello, world!")
}
.padding()
}
}
#Preview {
ContentView()
}
However, previewing with iPhone or iPad works fine. This is really frustrating. When I run the app on a simulator (Mac, iPhone, or iPad), everything works perfectly.
The error shown is Cannot preview in this file: Failed to launch [AppName] with the following path: /Users/[myname]/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/[AppName-gemeoxpjlzrshfifmgmqrkcxdeiz/Build/Products/Debug/FirebaseFirestoreInternal.framework/FirebaseFirestoreInternal
Run Destination: macOS 15.1.
What I have tried so far:
Cleaned the build folder
Re-installed Firebase SDK
Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Hello!
I am trying to remove a photo from my Photos Library using PhotosUI. I run into this error when I attempt to delete it:

Hello, I recently have crashes on my application, it results in many crashes with different reasons, here are the different main reasons:
AttributeGraph: AG::Graph::update_main_refs(AG::AttributeID)
SwiftUICore: closure #1 in ViewLayoutEngine.explicitAlignment(_:at:)
SwiftUICore: __swift_instantiateGenericMetadata
My main problem is that these crashes appeared without any major changes to my app, and they never happen when I emulate the app from xcode whether on a simulator or a real device. I have other crashes with other errors I can provide them if necessary.
So I have a lot of trouble identifying where the errors come from, I tried to activate zombie objects, and address sanitizer without it revealing anything. Thanks in advance for the answers.
Hello,
In our current project we are using NavigationSplitView in the following way:
var body: some View {
NavigationSplitView(
sidebar: {
ListView()
},
detail: {
DetailsView()
}
)
.navigationBarHidden(true)
.navigationSplitViewStyle(.automatic)
.introspectSplitViewController { splitViewController in
splitViewController.preferredDisplayMode = .oneOverSecondary
splitViewController.maximumPrimaryColumnWidth = 500
splitViewController.preferredPrimaryColumnWidthFraction = 1
}
}
}
And in iPhone the DetailsView() is pushed using the navigationDestination modifier:
.navigationDestination(isPresented: $isShowingDetailsScreen) {
DetailsView()
.navigationBarHidden(true)
}
where isShowingDetailsScreen is updated through a button click:
Button() {
self.isShowingDetailsScreen = true
}
This works perfectly in iOS versions prior to 18. However starting from this version the button click no longer presents the view desired. Below is what happening in the latest iOS versions:
iOS 18: This mechanism is broken altogether, it does not work at all.
iOS 18.1: This mechanism is partially broken, when clicking on the button the DetailsView is not presented, however since the page also contains other reactive views, any time one of them is changed through a state change after clicking on that button, the DetailsView is presented.
Does anyone faced an issue like this with the new iOS and if so is there any workaround for now? Because this seems to be a bug caused by changes in SwiftUI and shouldn't persist for long.
Hello Apple Community,
With a backend development background, I was always reluctant to do any front end. Especially with my bad experience with html & css, my negative opinion towards UI only got stronger.
When starting a new project at my current company, I was forced to do SwiftUI for iOS. After a few small (I mean really small) hiccups, I really understood the concept and it all became natural.
This positive experience made me want to try other front end frameworks which work for web. I dipped my toes into Jetpack Compose, C# UWP/WPF, Rust with EGUI.
I was really impressed with the performance and possibilities of Rust (EGUI) compiled to WASM. I was especially impressed that you do not have to use any HTML or CSS rather the rendering is completely up to you just like with a desktop application. I was always disappointed of the necessity of html, but with the rise of WASM in the recent years, I really hope there will be amazing alternatives using WASM & WEBGL.
Rust with EGUI is good and all but lets be honest to our self: With the ease of SwiftUI, its obvious why all the best looking applications are on iOS.
Its time for SwiftUI in web.
The advantages for the developers are obvious:
Arguably better UI Framework
No Html DOM stuff
Friendlier for new developers
One framework & language for multiple platforms
etc ...
But whats in for Apple? Why "waste" resources?
In my opinion the most important thing is: Increased Developer adoption
What is your opinion on this topic?
Would you use SwiftUI for web?
What are you currently using for web?
Do you prefer any other frontend framework over SwiftUI? (not considering the platform)
Hello, I have a small lightweight macOS application that includes a medium widget but the widget does not update with new data as often as I'd like. I understand that in apple's WidgetKit documentation they mention that apple controls when the widget updates due to battery life concerns, but I'd like to know if theres any way at all to control when the widget updates or when I think it makes sense to do so if I am not able to control how often it refreshes new data.

I’m seeing a crash in production for a small percentage of users, and have narrowed it down based on logging to happening as or very shortly after an alert is presented using SwiftUI.
This seems to be isolated to iOS 17.5.1, but since it’s a low-volume crash I can’t be sure there aren’t other affected versions. What can I understand from the crash report?
Here’s a simplified version of the code which presents the alert, which seems so simple I can’t understand why it would crash. And following that is the crash trace.
// View (simplified)
@MainActor public struct MyView: View {
@ObservedObject var model: MyViewModel
public init(model: MyViewModel) {
self.model = model
}
public var body: some View {
myViewContent
.overlay(clearAlert)
}
var clearAlert: some View {
EmptyView().alert(
"Are You Sure?",
isPresented: $model.isClearAlertVisible,
actions: {
Button("Keep", role: .cancel) { model.clearAlertKeepButtonWasPressed() }
Button("Delete", role: .destructive) { model.clearAlertDeleteButtonWasPressed() }
},
message: {
Text("This cannot be undone.")
}
)
}
}
// Model (simplified)
@MainActor public final class MyViewModel: ObservableObject {
@Published var isClearAlertVisible = false
func clearButtonWasPressed() {
isClearAlertVisible = true
}
func clearAlertKeepButtonWasPressed() {
// No-op.
}
func clearAlertDeleteButtonWasPressed() {
// Calls other code.
}
}

I am new to Swift and iOS development. I am trying to wrap a web app where the orientation is dependent on the URL. I have the code working with Stack Overflow as an example where "https://stackoverflow.com" displays in portrait and all other pages change to landscape after being loaded. I have a URL observer that triggers when the URL changes and calls requestGeometryUpdate. I'm running into the following problem:
When changing the orientation with requestGeometryUpdate, the orientation changes, but if the device is physically rotated after the change, the orientation changes again. I would like to make the orientation change locked and permanent until a new page is loaded.
Any help would be much appreciated. My code is below:
import SwiftUI
import WebKit
struct TestView: View {
private let urlString: String = "https://stackoverflow.com/"
var body: some View {
TestWebView(url: URL(string: urlString)!)
.background(Color.black)
.scrollIndicators(.hidden)
.ignoresSafeArea([.all])//stretchs webview over notch on iphone
.defersSystemGestures(on:.bottom)//deprioritizes multitasking indicator
.statusBar(hidden: true)//hides time and battery
}
}

super.viewDidLoad()
let winScene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first
let windowScene = winScene as! UIWindowScene
webview = WKWebView(frame: self.view.frame)
webview.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth,.flexibleHeight]//makes webview fit screen in portrait and landscape
self.view.addSubview(self.webview)
webViewURLObserver = self.webview.observe(\.url, options: .new) { webview, change in
let url=change.newValue!!;//! converts from optional to string
print(url)
let arr = url.absoluteString.split(separator: "stackoverflow.com").map(String.init)
var portrait=false
if(arr.count>1){
let path = arr[1];
if path=="/"{
portrait=true
}
}
if portrait==true {
windowScene.requestGeometryUpdate(.iOS(interfaceOrientations: .portrait)) { error in print(error)}
}
else{
windowScene.requestGeometryUpdate(.iOS(interfaceOrientations: .landscape)) { error in print(error)}
}
self.setNeedsUpdateOfSupportedInterfaceOrientations()
}
}
}

Is it possible to specify a default window size for a 2D window in visionOS? I know this is normally achieved by modifying the WindowGroup with .defaultSize(width:height:), but I get an error that this was not included in "xrOS". I am able to specify .defaultSize(width:height:depth:) for a volumetric window, but this doesn't have any effect when applied to a 2D one.
In Swift 6, stricter concurrency rules can lead to challenges when making SwiftUI views conform to Equatable. Specifically, the == operator required for Equatable must be nonisolated, which means it cannot access @MainActor-isolated properties. This creates an error when trying to compare views with such properties:
Error Example:
struct MyView: View, Equatable {
let title: String
let count: Int
static func ==(lhs: MyView, rhs: MyView) -> Bool {
// Accessing `title` here would trigger an error due to actor isolation.
return lhs.count == rhs.count
}
var body: some View {
Text(title)
}
}
Error Message:
Main actor-isolated operator function '==' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated protocol requirement; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

When using the NavigationSplitView with an inspector containing a list which has swipeActions and onDelete, item actions behave erratically.
It seems that there is a gesture conflict between the swipe action and the NavigationSplitView. Is there any modifier that could be used to force gesture focus on the inspector?
struct Animal: Hashable {
var name : String
}
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var isShowingInspector = false
var body: some View {
NavigationSplitView {
Text("Main")
} detail: {
Text("Detail")
.inspector(isPresented: $isShowingInspector) {
InspectorView()
.toolbar {
ToolbarItem(placement: .primaryAction) {
Button {
isShowingInspector.toggle()
} label: {
Label("Preferences", systemImage: "gearshape")
} }
}
}
}
}
}
struct InspectorView: View {
@State var animals = [
Animal(name: "Dog"),
Animal(name: "Cat"),
Animal(name: "Parrot")
]
@State private var selectedAnimal: Animal?
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
Text(selectedAnimal?.name ?? "Select an animal")
List(selection: $selectedAnimal) {
Section {
ForEach(animals, id: \.self) { animal in
Text(animal.name)
.swipeActions(edge: .leading) {
Button("Edit") {
}
.tint(.green)
}
}
.onDelete { indexSet in
}
} header: {
Text("Animals")
}
}
}
}
}
I'm developing a SwiftUI, CoreData / CloudKit App with Xcode 16.2 & Sequoia 15.2. The main CoreData entity has 20 NSManaged vars and 5 derived vars, the latter being computed from the managed vars and dependent computed vars - this somewhat akin to a spreadsheet. The data entry/updating Form is complex for each managed var because the user needs to be able to enter data in either Imperial or Metric units, and then switch (by Button) between units for viewing equivalents. This has to happen on an individual managed var basis, because some source data are in Imperial and others Metric.
Consequently, I use a generalised SubView on the Form for processing the managed var (passed as a parameter with its identity) and then updating the CoreData Entity (about 100 lines of code in total): i.e. there are 20 uses of the generalised SubView within the Main Form. However, none of the SubViews triggers an update of the managed var in the Form, nor computations of the derived vars. On initial load of the app, the CoreData entity is retrieved and the computations happen correctly: thereafter not.
No technique for refreshing either View works: e.g. trigger based on NSManagedObjectContextDidSave; nor does reloading the CoreData entity after Context Save (CoreData doesn't recognise changes at the attribute level anyway). If the SubView is removed and replaced with code within the Form View itself, then it works. However, this will require about 40 @State vars, 20 onCommits, etc - so it's not something I'm keen to do.
Below is a much-simplified example of the problem.
Form{
Section(header: Text("Test Record")){
Text(testRec.dateString ?? "n/a")
TextField("Notes",text:$text)
.onSubmit{
testRec.notes = text
dataStore.contextSave()
}
//DoubleNumberEntry(testRec: testRec) - doesn't work
TextField("Double",value:$numDbl,format: .number)
// This works
.onSubmit{
testRec.dblNum = numDbl
dataStore.contextSave()
}
TextField("Integer",value: $numInt,format: .number)
.onSubmit{
testRec.intNum = Int16(numInt)
dataStore.contextSave()
}
Text(String(format:"%.2f",testRec.computation))
Section(header: Text("Computations")) {
Text(String(format:"%.2f",testRec.computation))
Text(String(format:"%.2f",testRec.anotherComputation))
}
}
}
A much simplified version of my NSManaged var entry/updating.
struct DoubleNumberEntry: View {
let dataStore = MainController.shared.dataStore
var testRec : TestRec
@State private var numDbl: Double
init(testRec: TestRec) {
self.testRec = testRec
self.numDbl = testRec.dblNum
}
var body: some View {
TextField("Double",value:$numDbl,format: .number)
.onSubmit{
testRec.dblNum = numDbl
dataStore.contextSave()
}
}
}
I'd appreciate any offered solution or advice.
Regards, Michaela
Basic Information
Please provide a descriptive title for your feedback:
Sheet presentationDetents breaks after rapid open/dismiss cycles
Which platform is most relevant for your report?
iOS
Description
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a sheet with presentationDetents([.medium])
Rapidly perform these actions multiple times (usually 3-4 times):
a. Open the sheet
b. Immediately scroll down to dismiss
Open the sheet again
Observe that the sheet now appears at .large size, ignoring the .medium detent
Expected Result:
Sheet should consistently maintain .medium size regardless of how quickly
it is opened and dismissed.
Actual Result:
After rapid open/dismiss cycles, the sheet ignores .medium detent and
appears at .large size.
Reproduction Rate:
Occurs consistently after 3-4 rapid open/dismiss cycles
More likely to occur with faster open/dismiss actions
Configuration:
iOS 18
Xcode 16.0 (16A242d)
SwiftUI
Device: iPhone 14
Some strange visual artifacts appeared in my app after updating Xcode to 16.0. The old version of the app was built with Xcode 15.x and working fine without any visual artifacts, but for the latest release I've used Xcode 16.0 and some strange visual artifacts appeared in LazyVStack on iOS 18.x.

Anyone can help me with a fix or workaround ?
I try to convert view to vector graphic (PDF) using ImageRenderer. But output image has ALL coordinates rounded to integer values, which is not OK - some very small circles become elipses, squares are no longer squares, very detailed or small shapes are distorted by rounding coordinates. Is a some option to switch off rounding?
