Hi I am using PhotosPicker and SwiftData with iOS17.0. I released my own app using codes of two above. No problem came up right until I upgraded my iphone to iOS 18.0 17th of September 24. A single post pokes the similar problem. SwiftData and PhotosPikcer. He or She said it was about SwiftData Model Insert something. But, I was able to use other methods that use SwiftData, so insert Model setup isn't my problem. But when tapping a photo to get a photo from PhotosPicker makes the ui goes down, and navigate back. Weird. iIt doesnt crash but when I tap a photo, the debug message [ERROR] Could not create a bookmark: NSError: Cocoa 4097 "connection to service named com.apple.FileProvider" comes up and the view navigates back. The selecting a photo itself doesnt include any SwiftData related methods, it only does loadTransferable thing and shows the photo on the screen. I cannot understand it. it only happened when I upgraded to iOS 18.0. AND Then i debugged the prob with Xcode 16.0 nothing but the unexpected message appears and not many posts are up here or google. Can you help me? Things I tried: Check any use of the PhotosPickerItem anywhere else. -> No where. Use try await loadTransferable Changed the form of initiating PhotosPikcer View Debugging every line -> Nothing appeared. PhotosPicker(selection: $currentImage, matching: .images, photoLibrary: .shared()) { Text("") } .frame(height: 360) .photosPickerStyle(.inline) .photosPickerAccessoryVisibility(.hidden, edges: .bottom) .photosPickerDisabledCapabilities(.selectionActions) .onChange(of: currentImage) { _, newImage in // SomeLogic } .ignoresSafeArea(edges: .bottom) .transition(.move(edge: .bottom).combined(with: .opacity))

In iOS 18, textSelection(_:) not working in List. So, I can't copy text. Works on iOS 17 and earlier. Is this a bug and is there any solution? // Not Work: iOS 18 struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { List { Text("Hello World") .textSelection(.enabled) } } } // Work: iOS 18 and earlier struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Text("Hello World") .textSelection(.enabled) } }

I am working on an application that has some complex navigation needs, and I'm considering abandoning SwiftUI, at least in a few core areas of the app. I found SwiftUI intuitive and useful for simple things like: Using a state to toggle the appearance or disappearance of an element Using state to alter the look of UI elements Watching the values of built-in interfaces like TextField or Slider Controlling out-of-the-box UI elements like NavigationSplitView But now I've got a UI that depends on a data model that can change at any time, and from that data I'll display lists of objects, and objects in detail, and all of this will be displayed according to a NavigationPath that depends on the data model's internal structure. This means that, for instance, I may be in the detail view of element X after having traveled to it from the detail view of element Y which was tapped in a list of XYZ, which was the result of tapping into part of the detail view of element W. This whole path could be invalidated by an update to the data model when it's received from the network. Furthermore, any element could have it's details changed, or be deleted, and I'd want the UI to reflect that right away if possible. For the navigation work, I'm still optimistic that custom edits to a NavigationPath could be the way to go. However, for propagating data updates around my app, I know @State, @Bindable, etc are intended to handle this kind of thing, but when I'm try to send these bindings through the circuitous path of views I mentioned above, and I run into any unexpected hiccup, it feels like I'm at a disadvantage when debugging because I'm relying on opaque SwiftUI Magic to handle things under the hood in a way I don't really understand. I could put more effort into learning how this works, and potentially come up against some platform limitations, bugs, or other dead-ends, or I could just use Pub/Sub and a network of custom queues/pipes, and send updates around my app the old fashioned way, but using primitives whose functions are clear to me. I've been using SwiftUI for about a year and it still trips me up, and I have watched a few WWDC talks on the topic. I'd appreciate any advice on this front from the frequenters of this forum. Thanks for reading my post.

In iOS, to display a RealityView, you can assign a value to the content.camera property: content.camera = .virtual However, how can this be implemented in macOS and tvOS?

Hi, Is there anyway to auto format a text field to show mobiles numbers properly like a modifier or something ? and is there an API to check if the text is a valid mail address not just dummy text ? -- Kind Regards

Hi, The example that Apple shows in link below doesn't show how truncationMode works, because the text get truncated anyway when its length it more than frame height so what's the use of truncationMode ? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/truncationmode(_:) -- Kind Regards

Hi Guys, I saw in iOS 18 (Photos App) that there are buttons (in an scrollview) below the navigation title and inside the navigation bar. Is there an new API or an method to "clone" this UI without using: .safeAreaInset(edge: .top, content: { }) Thanks in advance for any feedback and help!

I’m using ‘Offer Codes’ in App Store Connect for subscriptions. I’m also using a StoreKit implementation that uses the subscriptionStatusTask modifier to assess if the user is subscribed or not. The part I’m not sure of is whether or not the subscriptionStatusTask modifier will recognize the status if the user has used an offer code. I think it should, as that modifier checks for currentEntitlements, and returns appropriately. I’ve been trying to test this out with the StoreKitTransactions system in Xcode, as SandBox does not currently support this. From what I can tell, this way does in fact seem to allow the user to access the app with an offer code. The app does not present the StoreKit view. However, when I’ve tried this with an actual user on the app store (aren’t mom’s great?), the offer code does not take, and they are presented with that StoreKit view. Not great. So can someone please shed some light on this? Is my understanding correct here? What else do I need to do?

We're adjusting to the new iOS 18 .limited contacts access mode. In our app, we don't request contacts right away. We have a search bar where users can search through their own contacts and select one using the ContactAccessButton. If they do select one, then they're prompted to "Grant Limited Access", not "Grant Full Access", as the screenshot shows below. Later on, we want to offer the ability for users to sync their entire contact book with our app. This will improve their experience on the app by automatically finding all their friends already on the app, without them having to do the manual work of clicking on every single contact in the ContactsAccessPicker. Is this possible right now? It doesn't seem like it—when I call ContactsStore.requestAccess(for: .contacts) while in .limited access mode, nothing happens. But I would like to show a prompt that gives the user the ability to grant all their contacts to improve their experience.

Hi! When building my app using Xcode 16, fast scrolling (using scrollViewProxy.scrollTo) a list would result in items not appearing even when scrolling stopped. This does not happen when the app is built with Xcode 15, even on iOS 18. I'm also getting this error in the logs: List failed to visit cell content, returning an empty cell. - SwiftUICore/Logging.swift:84 - please file a bug report.

Imagine you have ViewModel which computed property may change from time to time: import Foundation class ViewModel: ObservableObject { private var val = 42; var compProp: Int { return val } func maybeChange() { if (Int.random(in: 0..<2) == 1) { val += 1 ??? //heyViewThePropertyIsChanged(nameof(compProp)) } } } How could you force the View: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject var viewModel: ViewModel var body: some View { VStack { Text("\(viewModel.compProp)").font(.title) } .frame(minWidth: 320) .toolbar { Button(action: viewModel.maybeChange) { Label("Maybe", systemImage: "gear.badge.questionmark") } }.padding() } } to reflect such a change?

Hello there! I wanted to give a native scrolling mechanism for the Swift Charts Graph a try and experiment a bit if the scenario that we try to achieve might be possible, but it seems that the Swift Charts scrolling performance is very poor. The graph was created as follows: X-axis is created based on a date range, Y-axis is created based on an integer values between moreless 0-320 value. the graph is scrollable horizontally only (x-axis), The time range (x-axis) for the scrolling content was set to one year from now date (so the user can scroll one year into the past as a minimum visible date (.chartXScale). The X-axis shows 3 hours of data per screen width (.chartXVisibleDomain). The data points for the graph are generated once when screen is about to appear so that the Charts engine can use it (no lazy loading implemented yet). The line data points (LineMark views) consist of 2880 data points distributed every 5 minutes which simulates - two days of continuous data stream that we want to present. The rest of the graph displays no data at all. The performance result: The graph on the initial loading phase is frozen for about 10-15 seconds until the data appears on the graph. Scrolling is very laggy - the CPU usage is 100% and is unacceptable for the end users. If we show no data at all on the graph (so no LineMark views are created at all) - the result is similar - the empty graph scrolling is also very laggy. Below I am sharing a test code: @main struct ChartsTestApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() Spacer() } } } struct LineDataPoint: Identifiable, Equatable { var id: Int let date: Date let value: Int } actor TestData { func generate(startDate: Date) async -> [LineDataPoint] { var values: [LineDataPoint] = [] for i in 0..<(1440 * 2) { values.append( LineDataPoint( id: i, date: startDate.addingTimeInterval( TimeInterval(60 * 5 * i) // Every 5 minutes ), value: Int.random(in: 1...100) ) ) } return values } } struct ContentView: View { var startDate: Date { return endDate.addingTimeInterval(-3600*24*30*12) // one year into the past from now } let endDate = Date() @State var dataPoints: [LineDataPoint] = [] var body: some View { Chart { ForEach(dataPoints) { item in LineMark( x: .value("Date", item.date), y: .value("Value", item.value), series: .value("Series", "Test") ) } } .frame(height: 200) .chartScrollableAxes(.horizontal) .chartYAxis(.hidden) .chartXScale(domain: startDate...endDate) // one year possibility to scroll back .chartXVisibleDomain(length: 3600 * 3) // 3 hours visible on screen .onAppear { Task { dataPoints = await TestData().generate(startDate: startDate) } } } } I would be grateful for any insights or suggestions on how to improve it or if it's planned to be improved in the future. Currently, I use UIKit CollectionView where we split the graph into smaller chunks of the graph and we present the SwiftUI Chart content in the cells, so we use the scrolling offered there. I wonder if it's possible to use native SwiftUI for such a scenario so that later on we could also implement some kind of lazy loading of the data as the user scrolls into the past.

Hi. I recently added SwiftUI context menus and picker menus to my app, but when they are activated they flicker rapidly, and it is impossible to select anything (there is no hover effect either). When these menus are activated, the console prints lots of warning messages similar to this: [NetworkComponent] Cannot find component's entity (guid=14395713952467043328, typeID=295756909031380028, type=CustomComponentRCPInputTargetComponent, entity=0x1047c6750). This issue doesn't seem to happen on visionOS 1.2 simulator, but is reliably reproducible on visionOS 2.0 simulator and device. Any idea what this might be related to? I am attempting to narrow down on the issue but it's challenging to do so without knowing what the error is about. Thanks!

Hi, Is it possible to change font color of dark text in DatePicker in SwiftUI ? Also can we change size of arrows on top right ? Kind Regards

I am currently working on a comments section modeled after TikTok's/Instagram's comment sections for a media app. The view is a sheet view that is presented as follows: .sheet(isPresented: $showChat) { TakesChatView(viewModel: viewModel) .presentationDetents([.medium, .large]) .presentationDragIndicator(.hidden) .overlay( VStack { RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 2) .fill(Color.gray) .frame(width: 40, height: 5) .padding(.top, 15) .opacity(0.8) Label("Chat", systemImage: "message.badge") .lineLimit(nil) .padding(.top, 5) .padding([.leading, .trailing], 16) Divider() .padding(.top, 5) .padding([.leading, .trailing], 16) Spacer() } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .top) ) }.ignoresSafeArea(.keyboard, edges: .bottom) However, some issues arise regarding keyboard avoidance. Currently, when the user taps on the TextField to type a comment, the keyboard shifts the entire view upwards as it pops up. Instead, I need it where I can still view the comments without the keyboard affecting their placement when it pop up. Below is the associated code for the comment view: struct TakesChatView: View { @ObservedObject var viewModel: TakeCommentViewModel @FocusState var focus: Bool @State private var selectedMedia: [PhotosPickerItem] = [] @State private var selectedImageData: [Data] = [] @State private var selectedGIFData: [Data] = [] @State private var selectedVideoData: [Data] = [] var textFieldNotEmpty: Bool { !viewModel.textToPost.isEmpty || !selectedImageData.isEmpty || !selectedGIFData.isEmpty || !selectedVideoData.isEmpty } var body: some View { GeometryReader { _ in ZStack { VStack { contentView commentTextField .padding(.top,5) } } } .ignoresSafeArea(.keyboard, edges: .bottom) .background(Color.containerBackground) .onChange(of: viewModel.focus) { focus in self.focus = focus } .onChange(of: selectedMedia) { _ in loadMedia() } } var contentView: some View { VStack { Spacer().frame(height: 105) ScrollViewReader { scroll in ScrollView(showsIndicators: true) { ForEach(viewModel.comments, id: \.self) { comment in TakeCommentView( comment: comment, viewModel: self.viewModel ) .padding(.horizontal, 10) .id(comment.documentID) } .onChange(of: viewModel.commentAdded) { id in scroll.scrollTo(id, anchor: .bottom) viewModel.commentAdded = nil } } .scrollDismissesKeyboard(.immediately) } } } } extension TakesChatView { var commentTextField: some View { VStack { mediaPreview HStack { TextField("Type your comment", text: $viewModel.textToPost, axis: .vertical) .keyboardType(.twitter) .padding([.leading, .vertical], 6) .focused($focus) PhotosPicker(selection: $selectedMedia, matching: .any(of: [.images, .videos]), photoLibrary: .shared()) { ComposeType.media.image .frame(width: 40, height: 40, alignment: .center) } .onAppear { selectedMedia.removeAll() selectedImageData.removeAll() selectedGIFData.removeAll() selectedVideoData.removeAll() } postButton } .border(.lightGray, width: 1, cornerRadius: 10) .padding([.bottom, .horizontal], 10) } } } I have tried using .ignoresSafeAres(), .safeAreaInset(), and custom keyboard observer functions but to no avail. How do I fix this issue?

Hi, Some times long text damage the design of views it might go to a second row and increase view height and damage the overall design, so how to solve this issue, is there a way to set a Max Characters number for Text and TextField views in SwiftUI ? and maybe show few dots as used in some designs ? Kind Regards

Error: 'Runningboard has returned error 5' I am able to run my unit tests locally just fine. When I run them to from xcode cloud It fails everytime. I did notice in app store connect that it gives me a warning 'Grant access to the following repositories to allow them to be used for this product.' as I am using google sign in iOS(https://github.com/google/googlesignin-ios.git). However I cannot grant this access as I do not have privileges to google code base. I have imported the google sign in via swift package manager and everything works fine. This is the report from xcode cloud if it helps. Happy to add any additional info that will help

Hi, I'm currently working on some messages that should appear in front of the user depending on the system's state of my visionOS app. How am I able to change the distance of the appearing message relative to the user if the message is displayed as a View. Or is this only possible if I would create an enitity for that message, and then set apply .setPosition() and .relativeTo() e.g. the head anchor? Currently I can change the x and y coordinates of the view as it works within a 2D space, but as I'm intending to display that view in my immersive space, it would be cool if I can display my message a little bit further away in the user's UI, as it currently is a little bit to close in the user's view. If there is a solution without the use of entities I would prefer that one. Thank you for your help! Below an example: Feedback.swift import SwiftUI struct Feedback: View { let message: String var body: some View { VStack { Text(message) } } .position(x: 0, y: -850) // how to adapt distance/depth relative to user in UI? } } ImmersiveView.swift import SwiftUI import RealityKit struct ImmersiveView: View { @State private var feedbackMessage = "Hello World" public var body: some View { VStack {} .overlay( Feedback(message: feedbackMessage) ) RealityView { content in let configuration = SpatialTrackingSession.Configuration(tracking: [.hand]) let spatialTrackingSession = SpatialTrackingSession.init() _ = await spatialTrackingSession.run(configuration) // Head let headEntity = AnchorEntity(.head) content.add(headEntity) } } }

We are preparing a launch for iOS 18, and we experienced crashes from iOS 17 devices. If I load the app right from Xcode 16 RC to the iOS 17 device, then it works fine, but if I download it from TestFlight, the nit crashes. The app crashes immediately upon launch due to a missing symbol in the Foundation framework. I'm hoping someone can provide insights or suggestions on how to resolve this. Error Message CopySymbol not found: _$s10Foundation14NSDecimalRoundyySpySo0B0aG_SPyADGSiSo14NSRoundingModeVtF Referenced from: <C1ABDA48-29EE-3674-8554-669220A76F81> /Volumes/VOLUME/*/CamPlan.app/CamPlan Expected in: <D92E19C1-6299-3E94-8614-C505D5ABCCDB> /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Foundation What I've Tried Verified that the app is compiled with the latest Xcode version Checked for any usage of private APIs (none found) Reviewed usage of Foundation framework methods, especially those related to NSDecimalRound Questions What could be causing this symbol to be missing? Are there any known issues with NSDecimalRound or related functions in recent iOS versions? How can I identify which part of my code is trying to use this missing symbol?
