Description
In Live Activities, we saw many beautiful animations that powered by .numericText() like Text(time, style: .timer), or even Text with .contentTransition(.numericText()) applied.
But it seems like in normal SwiftUI View, these beautiful animations are gone. Instead, we saw a blinking result or fade-in-out result.
Is that exactly right?

Finally fixed in Xcode beta 6. Good work.
I tried it on Xcode Version 15.0 beta 8 (15A5229m) but it does not seem to be working. My text is not animated in the app (not a widget). Do you have any idea why?
Had the same problem, but solved it by wrapping the trigger with an animation block.
Try adding this below the Text view.
.onTapGesture {
withAnimation(.linear(duration: 0.3)) {
self.number = Float.random(in: 0...1000)
}
}
Also, question for you: What app / theme are you using for that awesome code snippet?
The content transition '.numericText(countsDown:)' that was introduced in iOS 16 does not work on iOS 16... is that a bug? Has anyone reported it? It does not matter if I wrap the value update inside a withAnimation block or not, it does not work. On iOS 17 it does, but I want backward compatibility.
Here is a solution that works in iOS 17:
import SwiftUI
struct TimerTransitionView: View {
var body: some View {
Text(Date(timeIntervalSince1970: 1696563619), style: .timer)
.contentTransition(.numericText())
.transaction { t in
t.animation = .default
}
}
}
#Preview {
TimerTransitionView()
}
Thanks LiYanan04818 for the suggestion!
Can be even better if you add the .monospacedDigit() modifier to the Text
