iOS 18 introduced the elevated tab bar for iPad devices. However, the tint color for UITabBar items is not changing. Adjusting the barTintColor and tintColor properties of the tab bar items does not seem to have any effect.

I have a UITableView which contains a UICollectionView in the first row. It used to work fine in iOS17, but now I get a crash when running with Xcode 16 / iOS18 beta: Expected dequeued view to be returned to the collection view in preparation for display. When the collection view's data source is asked to provide a view for a given index path, ensure that a single view is dequeued and returned to the collection view. Avoid dequeuing views without a request from the collection view. For retrieving an existing view in the collection view, use -[UICollectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:] or -[UICollectionView supplementaryViewForElementKind:atIndexPath:] This is my UITableView delegate call: AddEditDataCell *cell = nil; if (indexPath.section == 0) { if (indexPath.row == 0) { AddEditDataContactsCell *contactNameCell = (AddEditDataContactsCell *)[self cellForContactNamesCollectionAtIndexPath:indexPath tableView:tableView]; return contactNameCell; - (AddEditDataContactsCell *)cellForContactNamesCollectionAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath tableView:(UITableView *)tableView { AddEditDataContactsCell *contactsCell = (AddEditDataContactsCell *)[self.tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"ContactsCell" forIndexPath:indexPath]; if (self.collectionNameCell == nil) { self.collectionNameCell = [contactsCell.collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:@"LogContactNameCollectionCellIdentifier" forIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0]]; contactsCell.nameCellDelegate = self; } contactsCell.frame = CGRectZero; [contactsCell setNeedsLayout]; [contactsCell.collectionView reloadData]; contactsCell.collectionViewHeightConstraint.constant = contactsCell.collectionView.collectionViewLayout.collectionViewContentSize.height; [contactsCell.collectionView.collectionViewLayout invalidateLayout]; return contactsCell; }

I'm trying to create a brush by drawing in CGContext using a UIImage for a brush. However, I when I try drawing, the stroke is antialiased when I don't want it to be. I tried context.interpolationQuality = .none context.setShouldAntialias(false) but it doesn't seem to work. Is it a problem with my brush or resizing the brush maybe?? (Also this problem doesn't occur when I draw a regular stroke without the brush.) Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Here is my draw function override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) { super.draw(rect) guard let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext() else { return } context.interpolationQuality = .none context.setShouldAntialias(false) for stroke in strokes { let brush = UIColor.blue.circle(size: CGSize(width: CGFloat(stroke.width * 10), height: CGFloat(stroke.width * 10))).mask(color: UIColor(cgColor: stroke.color)) var first = true for point in stroke.points { if first { first = false context.move(to: point) continue } context.addLine(to: point, using: brush) } } } Circle brush extension UIColor { func circle(size: CGSize = CGSize(width: 1, height: 1)) -> UIImage { return UIGraphicsImageRenderer(size: size).image { rendererContext in self.setFill() UIBezierPath(ovalIn: CGRect(origin: .zero, size: size)).fill() } } } CGConext extension where I overloaded addLine extension CGContext { func addLine(to point: CGPoint, using brush: UIImage, density: CGFloat = 1.0) { var frame: CGRect = .zero frame.size = brush.size let lastPoint = self.currentPointOfPath let distanceX = point.x - lastPoint.x let distanceY = point.y - lastPoint.y let distanceR = sqrt(pow(distanceX, 2) + pow(distanceY, 2)) let deltaR = (1.0 / density) let numOfSteps = ceil(distanceR / deltaR) var renders : CGFloat = 0.0 let deltaX = distanceX / numOfSteps let deltaY = distanceY / numOfSteps var currentCenter = lastPoint repeat { frame.origin.x = currentCenter.x - frame.width / 2.0 frame.origin.y = currentCenter.y - frame.height / 2.0 brush.draw(in: frame) currentCenter.x += deltaX currentCenter.y += deltaY renders += 1.0 } while (renders <= numOfSteps) self.move(to: point) } }

I have an iOS app that relies on dynamic text size such that all fonts in the app respect the user's setting of Text Size in the iOS Settings app. This app also runs on macOS via Mac Catalyst. But until macOS 14 Sonoma, there was no Text Size setting in the macOS Settings app. But even as of Sonoma, the Text Size setting isn't usable by 3rd party apps. And Sequoia doesn't seem to change that. As a work around, my Mac Catalyst app provides its own Text Size setting. I was able to make it work by providing my own UIApplication subclass and overriding preferredContentSizeCategory. Under macOS 12 to macOS 14, this workaround works just fine and all fonts in the app created with code such as UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle:) gives appropriately sized fonts based on the overridden content size category. However, this workaround stopped working with macOS 15 Sequoia. I've also tried code such as: self.window.traitOverrides.preferredContentSizeCategory = myCustomSizeCategoryValue and self.window.maximumContentSizeCategory = myCustomSizeCategoryValue self.window.minimumContentSizeCategory = myCustomSizeCategoryValue in the scene delegate but that made no difference. Is there any way to get code such as UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle:) to return an appropriately sized font based on some app provided content size category in a Mac Catalyst app running under macOS 15? It sure would be nice if Mac Catalyst apps automatically responded to the macOS Text Size setting under Settings -> Accessibility -> Display -> Text Size just like a native iOS app.

I've tried to animate custom UIViewRepresentable with SwitfUI animations, but it doesn't work. It just sets value without interpolation. What should i do to use interpolation values in UIKit views? My example shows two "progress bars" red one is UIKit view, blue one is SwiftUI version. Sliders controls value directly, randomize button changes value to random with 5s animation. When I press button SwiftUI progress bar animates exactly as it should, but UIKit's one just jumps to final position. Set block of animatableData inside Animatable extension not called. How can I use SwiftUI animation value interpolations for UIKit? import SwiftUI import UIKit class UIAnimationView: UIView { var progress: CGFloat = 0.5 { didSet { if self.progressConstraint != nil, self.innerView != nil { self.removeConstraint(self.progressConstraint!) } let progressConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint( item: innerView!, attribute: .trailing, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: self, attribute: .trailing, multiplier: min(1.0, max(0.0001, progress)), constant: 0 ) self.addConstraint(progressConstraint) self.progressConstraint = progressConstraint self.layoutIfNeeded() } } var innerView: UIView? private var progressConstraint: NSLayoutConstraint? public override init(frame: CGRect) { super.init(frame: frame) self.performInit() } public required init?(coder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: coder) self.performInit() } private func performInit() { let innerView = UIView() innerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false self.addSubview(innerView) self.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: innerView.leadingAnchor).isActive = true self.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: innerView.topAnchor).isActive = true self.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: innerView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true let progressConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint( item: innerView, attribute: .trailing, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: self, attribute: .trailing, multiplier: progress, constant: 0 ) self.progressConstraint = progressConstraint self.addConstraint(progressConstraint) self.innerView = innerView self.innerView!.backgroundColor = UIColor.red self.backgroundColor = UIColor.black } } struct AnimationTest: UIViewRepresentable { var progress: CGFloat typealias UIViewType = UIAnimationView func updateUIView(_ uiView: UIAnimationView, context: Context) { print("progress: \(progress) \(context.transaction.isContinuous)") uiView.progress = progress } func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UIAnimationView { let view = UIAnimationView() view.progress = progress return view } } extension AnimationTest: Animatable { var animatableData: CGFloat { get { return progress } set { print("Animation \(newValue)") progress = newValue } } } struct AnimationDebug: View { @State var progress: CGFloat = 0.75 var body: some View { VStack { AnimationTest(progress: progress) Spacer() VStack { Slider(value: $progress, in: 0...1) { Text("Progress") } } GeometryReader { gr in Color.blue .frame( width: gr.size.width * progress, height: 48) } .frame(height: 48) Button("Randomize") { withAnimation(Animation.easeInOut(duration: 5)) { progress = CGFloat.random(in: 0...1) } } } } } struct AnimationTest_Previews: PreviewProvider { static var previews: some View { AnimationDebug() } }

There's been an article where it says Apple/iOS apps can use the FONT_FAMILY='System' which is defaulted to use San Francisco (SF font). Is this valid Fontfamily to use? If yes, is it open source to use?

Hello everyone, I'm working on an iOS application using Objective-C and UITabBarController. My app has more than 5 tabs, so the additional tabs are placed under the "More" tab. However, I've encountered an issue specific to iOS 18 where the first item in the "More" tab does not show up properly. This issue does not occur in iOS 17 or earlier versions. Here's my setup method: (void)mainTabbarSetUp { NSMutableArray *tabItemArray = [NSMutableArray array]; UIViewController *viewController1, *viewController2, *viewController3, *viewController4, *viewController5, *viewController6, *viewController7; UINavigationController *navviewController1, *navviewController2, *navviewController3, *navviewController4, *navviewController5, *navviewController6, *navviewController7; viewController1 = [[UIViewController alloc] init]; navviewController1 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController1]; navviewController1.tabBarItem.title = @"Watch List"; navviewController1.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"tab_icn_watchlist"]; [tabItemArray addObject:navviewController1]; // Similarly adding other view controllers... viewController6 = [[UIViewController alloc] init]; navviewController6 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController6]; navviewController6.tabBarItem.title = @"Cancelled"; navviewController6.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"tab_icn_cancelled"]; [tabItemArray addObject:navviewController6]; self.mainTabBarController.viewControllers = tabItemArray; } What I've Tried: Verified that each view controller is correctly initialized and assigned to a UINavigationController before being added to the tab array. Logged the contents of the moreNavigationController to confirm that it contains the correct view controllers. Tested by reducing the number of view controllers to less than 5, and the issue does not occur. Ensured that all UINavigationControllers are configured consistently (e.g., translucency, bar style, etc.).

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

Hi everyone, If you're encountering the following error in Xcode while executing a simple webbrowser.open() command in your Python file, you're in the right place: "BUG IN CLIENT OF UIKIT: The caller of UIApplication.openURL(:) needs to migrate to the non-deprecated UIApplication.open(:options:completionHandler:). Force returning false (NO)." This issue arises because, starting from iOS 18, the UIApplication.openURL(:) method has been deprecated. If you created your project, dependencies, and the kivy-ios folder before iOS 18, every time you try to open a URL, the deprecated method will be called. To resolve this issue without rebuilding the entire project and waiting for the kivy-ios toolchain to be updated, simply follow these steps: At the very top of your main.py file remplace import webbrowser by : from pyobjus import autoclass from pyobjus.dylib_manager import load_framework load_framework('/System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework') NSURL = autoclass('NSURL') UIApplication = autoclass('UIApplication') def open_url(url): nsurl = NSURL.URLWithString_(url) app = UIApplication.sharedApplication() options = {} app.openURL_options_completionHandler_(nsurl, options, None) Then replace all your webbrowser.open(url) commands by open_url(url) You no longer need webbrowser. Hope it helped.

Use a UITabBarController to load two ViewControllers, A and B, both wrapped in UINavigationController. In A’s viewDidLoad method, push to C, with C’s hidesBottomBarWhenPushed set to true. When popping back to A, the tab bar flickers and then disappears. In versions lower than iOS 18, after popping back, the tabBar does not flicker and disappear. A ViewController override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let vc = CViewController() vc.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = true navigationController?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true) // Do any additional setup after loading the view. }

MACCATALYST I am able to hide title bar title using below line. windowScene.titlebar?.titleVisibility = .hidden but, windowScene.titlebar?.toolbarStyle = .unifiedCompact windowScene.titlebar?.toolbar = nil with above 2 lines, my title bar is still visible with system defined some background color. I want to make it transparent(clear background color)

Hi. Since Xcode 16 and/or iOS 18.0 (I upgraded at the same time), I have an strange effect in the lower (let's say) 20% section of the Navigation Bar when changing to another tab, and this independently if large titles are used or not. Mentioned section is brighter or darker than the rest of the Navigation Bar background, depending on which background tint is used. This effect lasts about 0.3 seconds, but is clearly visible, quite disturbing and new as of Xcode 16 and/or iOS 18.0. I use the code below in AppDelegate to get a gradient coloured Navigation Bar background. let appearance = UINavigationBarAppearance() UINavigationBar.appearance().standardAppearance = appearance UINavigationBar.appearance().compactAppearance = appearance UINavigationBar.appearance().scrollEdgeAppearance = appearance UINavigationBar.appearance().compactScrollEdgeAppearance = appearance If I don't use above code., the background color is filled and without gradient. Subject effect doesn't show in this case. The effect basically looks like when changing tab, the new Navigation Bar background doesn't clear right away, and keeps the background from the previous Navigation Bar for 0.3 seconds before new one Navigation Bar background is rendered. I spent quite some time on changing every possible setting, in code as well as storyboard ... no success so far. Any ideas how to disable this undesired animation?

If I put the phone flat on a table, the left and right swipe gestures is not working but up and down gestures works. Only when I put the iPhone to some vertical degree, the left and right swipe works. Tested on 2 iPhone 7 Plus and 2 iPhone 13. Anyone has similar experience? If yes, why?

Starting with iOS 18, there is a change in how the transition from an underlying view to a UIDocumentInteractionController’s preview view is animated. The transition now scales down the size of the content within the controller’s view, using the center point of the root view as the base of the transformation. This results in a smaller, compressed view centered within the root view, revealing the root view’s background, which is typically white. Even if this background color is adjusted to match elements like the navigation bar, the transformed view has non-rounded corners. I have not tested this behavior when presenting a UIDocumentInteractionController from a SwiftUI view. My question to the UIKit framework developers: Is this new behavior of UIDocumentInteractionController an intentional feature, a feature with bugs, or just a bug?

Hello everyone! I was implementing a MFMessageComposeViewController to send messages. Currently I'm observing behaviour that attachments button is always disabled. But thing is that I'm showing MFMessageComposeViewController only when canSendText() && canSendAttachments() are true. if MFMessageComposeViewController.canSendText() && MFMessageComposeViewController.canSendAttachments() { let composeVC = MFMessageComposeViewController() composeVC.messageComposeDelegate = self composeVC.body = "Test message" self.present(composeVC, animated: true, completion: nil) } I've checked that mms are enabled.

I use @Binding to sync data between SwiftUI component state and UITable state. my observations: while reordering @State variable of the TestView is updating, it can be checked by taping the button inside the table the data is not updating.

However, when I perform swipe action, the shadow effect is gone. Do you have any idea how I can resolve such? Thanks.
