Gesture: System gesture gate timed out.

Question

Hi everyone

I am fighting with a weird problem in my app I use swiftui and ai do not use tabs, but a hierarchy of view created by me that switch one to the other with a slide animation when I tap one of the elements i don't use gesture, but only ontap. The same app launched on two different iPhone has two different behaviours on the iPhone 11 no problem, the animation is fluid and responsive, on the iPhone 10 I got some delay, and in the console I can read Gesture: System gesture gate timed out

I have searched but I have not found anything useful and more than this it is extremely difficult to find some info about this warning/error

How can I solve this? on the iPhone 10 it seems like the animation got stuck for 1 seconds prior to be executed in the correct way

<0x104c07fc0> Gesture: System gesture gate timed out. Here too. I am not using SwiftUI, just UIKit and it even happens in the most minimal project: E.g. A UIViewController with a UITextField in it, nothing else. As soon as I touch the screen with finger. It also happens each time with my other projects with custom gesture recognition. And the bug was not there always, but now it appeared with my old projects.

I see a similar issue on dragging a view around with the onDrag modifier:

In the console I see lots of identical warnings: Found no UIEvent for backing event of type: 11; contextId: 0xcb35f894

When that happens my drag cancels and I have to retry it a couple of times before my drag works

I'm using .draggable and .dropDestination and I get both the warning you're getting on iPad and the original posters warning on iPhone. My draggable view is draggable (I can drag it around) but it isn't droppable.

I put a couple of prints in the .dropDestination closures and the first closure seems not to fire. The "isTargeted:" does fire and the print statement works.

We are also seeing this issue, we have a small number of users that are reporting that parts of our application that are built using SwiftUI are completely unresponsive. When we look at their logs, we see the following:

Used to work ok with previous versions. Note: no gestures used, only simple TextField

Experiencing the same issue with a simple TextField in 17.1.1 & iPhone 15.

I noticed that this warning only appears when I put the TextFields inside a ScrollView, but the delay is still there though, even if I don't put them into a ScrollView.

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var phoneNumber:String = ""
    var body: some View {
        
        VStack {
            Image(systemName: "globe")
                .imageScale(.large)
                .foregroundStyle(.tint)
            Text("Hello, world!")
            TextField("input",text: $phoneNumber)
                .font(.title3)
                .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
                .frame(maxWidth: .infinity)

            // <0x105105aa0> Gesture: System gesture gate timed out.

                .keyboardType(.numberPad)
                .padding()
        }
        .padding()
    }
}
