Shortcuts
Known Issues
• If an app intent uses Duration or LPLink Metadata, creating a shortcut with that intent and then attempting to edit it with “Describe a change” might fail. (166068090)
Workaround: If the model discards the action, press “Undo” to recover the unsupported intent.
• When an app intent defines a Union Value parameter with two number-related types (for example, both Int and Double), the number option appears twice in the parameter picker menu and shows as double-selected. (168315587)
Workaround: Define only one number-related type in the Union Value parameter (for example, use only Int or only Double, not both).

Siri
Known Issues
• After Siri returns photo search results and you select photos, Siri might not detect which photos are selected on screen. Commands like “Send these” might apply to all photos returned from the search rather than only the selected ones. (171728298)
Workaround: Open Photos, select the photos you want to act on, then perform the action using Siri — for example, “Send these photos to Bob”.
• Siri ignores custom values for navigation preferences, transport, and incident types in apps that use maps.start Navigation or maps.report Incident intent schemas. (175230813)
• When location data is unavailable or only coarse-accuracy location data is available, Maps searches initiated through Siri might return empty or imprecise results. (175380461)
Workaround: Grant Siri access to your location in Settings.
• When you turn off Siri, some photo-related questions might return web search results instead of prompting you to share the photo with ChatGPT. (175884006)

Workaround: Use the exact name of your reminder list when speaking or typing to Siri.
• Siri doesn’t support voice commands to interact with specific photos. For example, you can’t refer to photos by number, such as “photo one” or “photo four.” (176812955)
Workaround: Use the photo picker to select the photo you want, or tap to select photos directly.
• App Intents with @Union Value types that accept a Place Descriptor Entity and a String always receive String values instead of Place Descriptor Entity entities. (176844035)
Workaround: Include a String case in your @Union Value enum and manually convert the String to a Place Descriptor Entity when needed.
• When you ask Siri for Maps information, the response snippets might appear incomplete or display formatting issues. (177116121)
Workaround: Ask Siri to repeat the information, or open Maps directly for complete details.
• Starting a call with Siri might fail with an error in apps that adopt CallKit and the phone.start Call AppSchema. (177190637)
• When you ask Siri to send a message to a contact that doesn’t exist on your device, Siri might draft a message to an unrelated contact. (177356158)
• When you ask Siri to add photos to an album, the confirmation prompt and spoken response might report or display more photos than will actually be added. (177376984)

• You might not see names and images of email senders in the Siri email list UI. (177416168)
• Siri might not resolve some entity types when your app has provided only an Entity String Query for the entity type. (177464215)
Workaround: Index the entity in Spotlight, or provide an Intent Value Query if applicable.
• Siri functionality during software updates is limited, including calls to emergency services. (177476889)
• Asking Siri to call short phone numbers, such as “Call 17”, might fail. (177545828)
Workaround: When calling for emergency services, ask Siri to explicitly “call emergency services.”
• Search results from third-party apps may not be tappable. (177593534)
• Disabling Siri might not delete your Siri and Dictation interaction history from your device. (177649865)
• Siri might not find app-specific contacts that are only indexed in Spotlight and do not appear in the Contacts app. (177679168)
Workaround: Add the contact to the Contacts app.
• Siri cannot create a recurring reminder or update an existing reminder to be reoccurring. (177722240)
• With AirPods connected to iPhone and Announce Notifications enabled, responding “yes” by voice or head gesture to a long incoming notification (for example, a message) prompts you to unlock iPhone instead of reading the full message aloud. (177733317)
• New American English Siri voices 6 and 7 might default to legacy US voices when your device is overheated or in Low Power Mode. (177742977)
Workaround: Turn off Low Power Mode or wait for your device to cool down.
• When you use ChatGPT with Apple Intelligence, some responses used in follow-up queries or when you resume a chat might be logged by Apple. (177755742)

• After enabling Expressive Voices, you are not able to modify Pace or Expressiveness in the Settings pane. (177969955)
• Non-SF Symbol custom images for entities might not appear in Siri results for third-party apps. (177984074)
• Siri might run the incorrect Open Intent or system.open intent when multiple intents targeting different entity types are available in your app. (177992979)
• After creating a list through Siri, tapping the list icon might result in an error instead of opening the list in the Reminders app. (177998395)
• When you tap the Send button in the Siri message confirmation flow, the message might fail to send. (178025056)
Workaround: Use your voice to confirm sending the message instead of tapping the Send button.
• When you ask Siri to read your last message, Siri might read an unread message from an unknown sender, such as spam, instead of the most recent message from a known contact. (178049066)
Workaround: Name the sender in your request – for example, “Read my last message from .”
• When you ask Siri to open a URL from the Siri App, Safari might launch to a blank screen. (178163636)
Workaround: After Safari launches, return to the Siri app to confirm the request.
• On CarPlay with Apple Intelligence and the ChatGPT extension enabled, asking ChatGPT a question through Siri might not produce a spoken answer. The Siri orb appears briefly and the microphone reopens without Siri responding. (178247289)
Workaround: When you are done driving, ask the same ChatGPT question using Siri on iPhone directly instead of through CarPlay.
• Siri might respond more slowly than expected in CarPlay, particularly under higher device temperatures or poor network conditions. (178274714)
Workaround: Try the request again after the device has cooled down or once you are in an area with better cellular reception.
• You might encounter build failures when attempting to implement a Transferable Intent Value Representation for PHAsset. (178276448)
Workaround: Explicitly add import _Photos _App Intents to your source file.
• When asking Siri to call, message, or email a contact, Siri might fail to resolve the correct person — particularly when multiple contacts share the same name, when group names contain emoji or special characters, or when relationship labels (e.g., “my brother”) are ambiguous. In some cases, Siri might pick the wrong contact, fail to present a disambiguation prompt, or freeze during the disambiguation UI. (178379209)
Workaround: If Siri selects the wrong contact, try using the person’s full name (first and last) or specifying the contact handle directly.
• For Report a Concern flows started with Siri, the text in attachments might be difficult to read while in Dark Mode. (178381615)
Workaround: Switch your device to Light Mode to review the content in those files.
• Businesses with overnight hours might display as “Closed till [next day]” even during open hours. (178384054)
• In CarPlay, when Apple Intelligence enabled, Siri requests for directions in Maps might fail to start navigation. (178459481)
Workaround: Tap the Go button to start navigation.
• Siri might not respond to your voice correctly. (178489724)
Workaround: Force quit the Siri app and relaunch it.
• In the Siri app, conversations might be deleted a few minutes after receiving streaming responses. (178560562)

Known Issues
• When using StoreKit Testing in Xcode, pricing Terms .commitment Info .price returns an incorrect price for monthly subscriptions billed as a 12-month commitment. (177942756)

Suggestions in Messages
Known Issues
• The app icon shown for navigation suggestions is always the Apple Maps icon. If the suggestion is selected, the user’s preferred navigation app is correctly launched. (178193147)

Swift Charts
Known Issues
• When your project has a minimum deployment target lower than 27.0, using conditionals inside a Chart closure produces the warning “Conformance of ‘_ConditionalContent<TrueContent, FalseContent>’ to ‘ChartContent’ is only available in 27.0 or newer,” and the app might crash at runtime when that content is loaded. (174168981)
Workaround: Extract the conditional chart content into a separate function or computed property annotated with @Chart Content Builder. For example, replace:
Chart(dataPoints, id: .index) { dataPoint in
if selectedMetric == "Rate" {
LineMark(x: .value("X", dataPoint.index), y: .value("Y", dataPoint.rate))
.foregroundStyle(.blue)
} else {
LineMark(x: .value("X", dataPoint.index), y: .value("Y", dataPoint.signal))
.foregroundStyle(.green)
}
}
with:
Chart(dataPoints, id: .index) { dataPoint in
marks(for: dataPoint)
}

private func marks(for dataPoint: DataPoint) -> some ChartContent {
if selectedMetric == "Rate" {
LineMark(x: .value("X", dataPoint.index), y: .value("Y", dataPoint.rate))
.foregroundStyle(.blue)
} else {
LineMark(x: .value("X", dataPoint.index), y: .value("Y", dataPoint.signal))
.foregroundStyle(.green)
}
}

SwiftData
Known Issues
• You might experience a deadlock for @Query when saving a Model Context on a background actor while scheduling new async tasks for a Model Actor. (178113288)

SwiftUI
New Features
• You can now use .toolbar Color Scheme(color Scheme, for: .status Bar) to set a preferred status bar color scheme. (55162154) (FB7234376)
• Async Image now automatically caches downloaded images using HTTP caching protocols, allowing servers to control caching behavior via standard headers. You can customize caching for specific images using the new Async Image initializers that accept URLRequest with custom cache Policy settings. Additionally, you can set a custom URLSession using the new View .async Image URLSession(:) API to control how all child Async Image views perform data tasks. (78212597)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 and iPadOS 27.0 SDKs, a Text view with .text Selection(.enabled) applied now supports user-interactive selection using the system text selection UI. Previously, selectable Text views on iOS and iPadOS offered selection functionality through a callout menu. When building with the iOS 27.0 and iPadOS 27.0 SDKs, selectable Text views might include additional gestures for system text selection interactions. Consider using .high Priority Gesture() for custom gestures applied to Text views that should supersede system text selection gestures. (79770704) (FB9208920)
• A @State declared with an expression as its initial value used to evaluate the expression each time the view struct re-instantiates. In the case of @State private var model = Model(), this means Model.init() gets called many times throughout the view’s life time. Xcode 27 introduces a new @State implementation that avoids this repeated evaluation. This new behavior back-deploys to iOS 17 aligned OSes. The new @State is implemented with a Swift macro. It is largely source compatible with the property wrapper version, with a few exceptions.
If you provide an initial value at @State declaration, and also try to assign a value to it in an initializer, the initializer value is discarded. This behavior has not changed because of the macro, but some such cases no longer compiles:
struct StickerPageView: View {
@State private var page = StickerPage()
let title: String
init(title: String) {
// title won't have any effect
// this also won't compile with @State macro
self.page = StickerPage(title: title)
self.title = title
}
}
When assigning initial value via an initializer, do not provide an initial value at the @State declaration.
struct StickerPageView: View {
@State private var page: StickerPage // no initial value expression
let title: String
init(title: String) {
self.page = StickerPage(title: title) // works!
self.title = title
}
}
When all stored member of a struct is private, the compiler synthesizes a private init that can be used in extension of the same type:
struct StickerPageView: View {
@State private var page: StickerPage
private let title: String
...
}
extension StickerPageView {
init(title: String, _ page: StickerPage) {
self.init(page: page, title: title) // using the sythesized init
}
}
The state macro disables this synthesized initializer. So the code above no longer compiles. To mitigate, assign value to members explicitly:
extension StickerPageView {
init(title: String, _ page: StickerPage) {
self.title = title
self.page = page
}
}
In rare situations, the automatic inference of generic argument of @State is less flexible with the macro implementation. Write the type with more specificity.
Composing @State with other property wrappers or macros is not supported. (105893279)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 and macOS 27.0 SDKs, selectable Text views now support Text Renderer. (158160386) (FB19589465)
• In apps built with the 27.0 SDKs, the new Readable Document and Writable Document protocols support asynchronous reading and writing, progress reporting, and direct access to document URLs. New Document Group initializers that adopt these protocols let you disable document creation for editing-only apps and present custom UI before any document is opened. The initializers expose an Observable URLDocument Configuration and integrate with Swift concurrency and the Observation framework. New applications should prefer Readable Document and Writable Document over Reference File Document, which remains available. (158441552)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 and iPadOS 27.0 SDKs, a Tab View enforces that its selection is set to a visible tab. Tab View might crash when its selection is set to a hidden or otherwise unavailable tab. (164516837)
• You can use .toolbar Visibility(hide Status Bar ? .hidden : .automatic, for: .status Bar) to conditionally hide the status bar. (165329279)
• The menu bar on iPadOS 27.0 and macOS 27.0, as well as context menus on macOS 27.0, present a reduced set of menu item images. By default, SwiftUI now hides all menu item symbol images in most contexts, while non-symbol images remain visible. Review the updated Human Interface Guidelines to determine which menu items in your app should still display images. Use the label Style(:) view modifier with the .title And Icon style to indicate that a menu item Label’s icon should always be shown — such as when the menu item represents an object or a concept rather than an action. SwiftUI continues to automatically provide default visible menu item images for certain common system-wide menu items, such as Settings, Share, and Print. (170480710)
• The Tabs Picker Style is now available for pickers that represent tab-based navigation and content selection. This style is similar to the .segmented style, but VoiceOver reads it as “tabs,” and on macOS it has a distinct visual appearance that distinguishes it from pickers that represent value selection — for example, a text alignment picker in an inspector. (173211711)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 SDK, you can display non-interactive content on external display scenes using the .scene Accessory view modifier with an External Non Interactive Accessory type. (175548901)
• In apps built with the 27.0 SDKs, a Labeled Content view used inside a Menu maps its value to the platform menu item’s subtitle. (175594929)

Resolved Issues
• Fixed: In apps built with the 2027 SDKs, tapping the status bar to scroll a Scroll View to its top correctly updates a bound scroll Position. Previously, the binding could be left holding a stale value because the scroll-to-top transition didn’t drive the scroll-phase updates that propagate to the binding. (111501113) (FB12477370)
• Fixed: A custom Text Renderer applied via .text Renderer(:) now takes effect on a Text view that also has .text Selection(.enabled) applied. Previously, the custom renderer was dropped on selectable text, falling back to default rendering. (151015350)
• Fixed: When you apply both .file Exporter(:...) and .file Mover(:...) modifiers to a view, some dialogs might not present correctly. (154080867)
• Fixed: In apps built with the 27.0 SDKs, container Relative Frame(: alignment:) incorrectly accounts for safe-area insets on a Scroll View’s non-scrollable axis, causing the calculated scrollable content size to be too small. For example, a view using container Relative Frame(.vertical) inside a horizontal Scroll View extends into vertical safe-area regions, such as the navigation bar and home indicator, because only the scrollable axis insets are applied. (165913417)
• Fixed: Retroactive conformances of SwiftUI types to Equatable are not consulted when SwiftUI compares their values. (167443223)
• Fixed: In apps built with the 27.0 SDKs, the control Size, button Sizing, button Repeat Behavior, menu Indicator Visibility, and Button Border Shape environment values are not reset to their default values in sheets and popovers. (167448274)
• Fixed: A Button containing both an icon and a title placed inside a List Section header or footer has incorrect spacing between its icon and title. (175681345)
• Fixed: When you present a full Screen Cover with a .navigation Transition(_:) and set @Focus State to true via .on Appear, the keyboard does not animate concurrently with the zoom transition. Instead, it waits for the entire zoom animation to complete before the keyboard begins animating up, resulting in a visually jarring 2-step animation. (178421089)

Known Issues
• Progress reported in Document Reader .read(from: progress:) and Document Writer .write(snapshot: to: previous: progress:) might not be presented. (158441261)

System
New Features
• System now provides Swift APIs for the C stat, lstat, fstat, and fstatat system calls. This includes a new Stat type with initializers from File Path, File Descriptor, or a C string; File Path .stat() and File Descriptor .stat() instance methods; and supporting types (File Type, File Mode, Flags, User ID, Group ID, Device ID, and Inode). See SYS-0006 for more details. (160612181)

Known Issues
• Custom File Path or File Descriptor extensions that make unqualified calls to stat() or stat(_: :) (without the Darwin. qualification) might conflict with the new Swift stat() instance methods introduced in SYS-0006, causing build errors. (177911316)
Workaround: Migrate to the new Swift stat() methods, or disambiguate using Darwin.stat() and Darwin.stat(: _:). See SYS-0008 for more details.

System Experience
Known Issues
• When Siri is off and your iPad is extended to an external display where Spotlight is on screen, disconnecting the display might cause the system to crash. (176281601)
Workaround: Dismiss Spotlight before disconnecting the external display, or turn on Siri.
• After using iPhone Mirroring or other non-main display experiences, a black pill may appear on the CarPlay screen. (177893758)
Workaround: Reboot.

TextKit
New Features
• NSText Table and its related objects and types are available to UIKit clients starting with OS 27 releases. (159870239)

Trust Insights
New Features
• You can now use the TrustInsights framework in your apps by declaring the TrustInsights capability on your app target in Xcode. The framework requires an entitlement and internet connectivity to return results. (154949256)

UIKit
New Features
• When linked on iOS 27, tvOS 27, macCatalyst 27, or visionOS 27 SDKs, you can use UIScene .extend State Restoration and UIScene .complete State Restoration to extend state restoration for UIScene .Activation State .background to UIScene .Activation State .foreground lifecycle transitions. (161843040)
• iOS and iPadOS apps built with the 27.0 SDK or later are required to include a launch screen. Your app’s Info .plist must contain one of the following keys: UILaunch Storyboard Name, UILaunch Storyboards, UILaunch Screen, or UILaunch Screens. Apps that don’t include a launch screen are rejected when the App Store begins accepting apps built with the 27.0 SDK. (168247372)
• On iOS 27.0 and iPadOS 27.0, Siri can load resources from drag interactions installed in your app’s interface. For example, when Apple Intelligence is invoked from a context menu, the system calls UIDrag Interaction Delegate methods to load the content. Because drag sessions might begin without a user-initiated drag gesture, avoid performing animations or presenting modal UI for the drag in drag Interaction(: session Will Begin:). Instead, perform those actions in drag Interaction(: session Did Move:). (168884200)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 SDK, a presented view controller inherits its trait collection by walking up its view’s superview chain through the intermediate views of the presentation, rather than jumping directly to the presentation controller. Custom UIPresentation Controller subclasses or view controllers that depend on receiving traits directly from the presentation controller might need to update how they propagate or override trait Collection. (170005251)
• On iPadOS 27.0 and macOS 27.0, the menu bar and context menus present a reduced set of menu item images and do not display images set on menu elements by default. You can use the new preferred Image Visibility property on UIMenu Element — including updated initializers on UIMenu, UIAction, UICommand, and UIKey Command — to customize the visibility of each element’s image in these menus. Review the updated Human Interface Guidelines to determine which menu elements in your app should display images. UIKit automatically provides default visible menu element images for certain common system-wide menu items, such as Settings, Share, and Print. (170479084)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 SDK, when UISearch Controller uses center search-bar placement, the scope bar appears inline on the same row as the search field rather than on a separate row beneath it. When the search field is hosted inside a navigation bar, the scope bar sits inline beside the search field within that navigation bar. (173860616)
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 SDK, window External Display Non Interactive scenes are no longer offered automatically by the system. Use UIView Controller .register Scene Accessory(_:) with a UIScene Accessory .external Non Interactive instance to display non-interactive content on external display scenes. (177015874)

Resolved Issues
• Fixed: The UIMenu Leaf protocol is missing the subtitle property introduced in iOS 16.0. (173271862)

Known Issues
• In apps built with the iOS 27.0 SDK, the deprecated status bar accessors on UIApplication — including status Bar Frame, status Bar Orientation, status Bar Style, and is Status Bar Hidden — might return NaN or null values. (162044221)
Workaround: Read current values from UIWindow Scene .status Bar Manager instead.
• On iPad, if your iPad app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and its UISupported Interface Orientations doesn’t include all four interface orientations, the app is treated as non-continuously resizable. Beginning with iOS 27, supported interface orientations should no longer be a condition for continuous resizability. (166422120)
Workaround: To make your app continuously resizable on iPad, declare support for all four interface orientations in your Info .plist with UISupported Interface Orientations.
• The UIScene Closure Confirmation API does not present a confirmation dialog. (169108042)
• The background might not appear on a bottom toolbar when you use UIBar Button Item .hides Shared Background to hide a toolbar item’s glass background. (174773785)
• In iPhone Mirroring, if your app is built with the iOS 27 SDK its scene will support all interface orientations regardless of the orientations declared in UISupported Interface Orientations or returned by UIView Controller .supported Interface Orientations. Supported interface orientations should be honored until the user begins resizing the window. (178555304)
• In iPhone Mirroring, if your app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and sets UIRequires Full Screen, its scene receives continuous resize updates when the user resizes the window. Each resize should instead be delivered as a discrete change to a new UIScreen with an updated bounds. (178558224)
• In iPhone Mirroring if your app is built with the iOS 27 SDK, its scene is initially connected to a UIScreen that isn’t UIScreen .main. The scene should start on the main screen. (178558897)
• On iPad, if your iPad app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and sets UIRequires Full Screen, the bounds of UIScreen .main changes when the user resizes the window. The bounds of the main screen should remain fixed once the screen connects. (178559386)
• On iPad, if your iPad app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and sets UIRequires Full Screen, its scene receives continuous resize updates when the user resizes the window. Each resize should instead be delivered as a discrete change to a new UIScreen with an updated bounds. (178560235)
• On iPad, if your iPhone-only app is built with the iOS 27 SDK its scene continues to honor supported interface orientations after the user resizes the window. After the first resize, the scene should ignore supported interface orientations. (178561952)
• On iPad, if your iPhone-only app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and sets UIRequires Full Screen, its scene receives continuous resize updates when the user resizes the window. Each resize should instead be delivered as a discrete change to a new UIScreen with an updated bounds. (178562971)
• On iPad, if your iPhone-only app is built with the iOS 27 SDK and supports only portrait or only landscape interface orientations, its layout breaks when the iPad is in an orientation the app doesn’t support. (178573319)

Deprecations
• Apps built with the latest SDK must adopt the scene-based life cycle or they fail to launch. For migration guidance, see Transitioning to the UIKit scene-based life cycle. (141837548)

USDKit
Known Issues
• Some types of USD attributes cannot be read or modified. (170653056)
• Array, vector, matrix, and quaternion types cannot be authored using USDKit. (178071414)

VideoToolbox
New Features
• VTLow Latency Super Resolution Scaler Configuration now supports a 1.5x scale factor. Call +supported Scale Factors For Frame Width: frame Height: to discover the scale factors available for your source dimensions. (177635243)
• VTLow Latency Frame Interpolation Configuration now supports arbitrary source dimensions up to 1080p. (179040806)

Watch Connectivity
Resolved Issues
• Fixed: The WCSession .transfer Current Complication User Info method does not work with complications built using WidgetKit on watchOS. (113202790) (FB12819178)

Weather Highlights
Known Issues
• Weather Highlights is currently only available in US English. (164408676)

WidgetKit
Known Issues
• Your widget extension might not render its timeline when it uses an App Intent with a @Union Value parameter, and content such as images might not appear. This affects Widget Configuration Intent types that you declare with a @Union Value property. (177493357)
Workaround: Use a single App Entity type with a kind property to distinguish the variants.

Writing Tools
Known Issues
• Writing Tools becomes unresponsive when you interact with the Plus button while Writing Tools is in use. (177097101)
Workaround: Force quit Messages to resolve the issue.

Known Issues

• Watch migration might fail when restoring a backup to a new phone. (105416351)
  Workaround: Unpair the watch from the source phone, then pair it to the destination phone.

Beta enrollment for iPhone and iPad

New Features

• Beginning with iOS & iPadOS 16.4 beta, members of the Apple Developer Program will see a new option to enable developer betas directly from Software Update in Settings. This new option will be automatically enabled on devices already enrolled in the program that update to the latest beta release. Your iPhone or iPad must be signed in with the same Apple ID you used to enroll in the Apple Developer Program in order to see this option in Settings. In future iOS and iPadOS releases, this new setting will be the way to enable developer betas and configuration profiles will no longer grant access. (101692915)

Core ML

Deprecations

• Core ML Model Deployment is being deprecated. Consider using Background Assets or NSURLSession instead. (102993813)

Core Telephony

Deprecations

• CTCarrier, a deprecated API, returns static values for apps that are built with the iOS 16.4 SDK or later. (76283818)

Developer Settings

New Features

• Hang Detection stays enabled after rebooting. (105618983)

Home

New Features

• Both manual and automatic Software Update support is now available for Matter Accessories. (102727759)

Known Issues

• The iOS device that initiates the pairing needs to be on the same iCloud account with the home hub. Only the owner of a home, not an invited user, can pair Matter accessories. (76012945)
• You might receive an error when pairing a Matter accessory using the 11 digit setup code. (101554366)
  Workaround: Pair the accessory using the QR code instead.
• When a manual software update is attempted on a Matter accessory with an available update, Home might not indicate that the update has been requested and continue to indicate an update is available. (104902918)
  Workaround: Check the Software Update pane in Home Settings at a later time, as the update might be taking place in the background.
• The software update screen for Matter accessories might display the incorrect version number while an update is in progress. (105031569)
• Right after pairing, an available firmware update is not offered in the Home app. (105757029)
  Workaround: Reboot all residents.
• When there are multiple of the same accessory type updating to the same firmware or if there are back-to-back firmware versions for one accessory (during an incremental update), the new firmware update might not be offered. (105787380)
  Workaround: Reboot all residents or unpair the accessory and re-pair by clicking the “More options…” link to pair the accessory from there.
• Software updates for Matter accessories might be offered again, even though the update already completed successfully. (106073031)
  Workaround: Restart your HomePod and Apple TV devices.

iCloud Drive

Known Issues

• Filesystem APIs such as NSFileManager might trigger materialization of dataless files and/or directory structures in iCloud Drive, leading to hangs or performance problems for the calling application. (105009536)
  Workaround: Avoid calling anything which performs I/O on the main thread. Adopt UICollectionViewDataSourcePrefetching and load cells asynchronously. I/O should be wrapped under -[NSFileCoordinator coordinateAccessWithIntents:queue:byAccessor:] to avoid blocking a thread on a synchronous call. Alternatively, opt out of this behavior by setting your IO policy to IOPOL_MATERIALIZE_DATALESS_FILES_OFF but expect that I/O might fail with EDEADLK, if any component of the path is dataless (SF_DATALESS).
• iCloud Drive might become unresponsive when opened from the Files app. (105438692)
  Workaround: Restart your device.
• A loading indicator might appear, and the contents of iCloud Drive might be inaccessible within the Files app. (106232492)

Keyboards

New Features

Updates to Keyboards include:

• Support for new Unicode 15.0 Emoji.
• Autocorrect for the Korean keyboard is enabled by default for testing and feedback.

• New keyboard layouts are available for Choctaw and Chickasaw. (105243233)

MapKit

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Improved performance of MKOverlay objects. (102187262)

Pages, Numbers, and Keynote

Known Issues

• When Advanced Data Protection for iCloud is turned on, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote might unexpectedly require collaborative documents to be closed. (103463223)
  Workaround: Close the affected document, spreadsheet, or presentation and reopen it after a few minutes.

Passkeys and Authentication Services

New Features

• Web browsers on iOS with the com.apple.developer.web-browser entitlement now have passkey AutoFill within their WKWebView. This capability works without requiring any code changes or needing to rebuild. (97576198)
• A new AuthorizationController API allows you to perform passkey and other types of authorization requests from SwiftUI views. (97576703)
• A new WebAuthenticationSession API allows you to perform OAuth and other types of web-based authentication flows from SwiftUI views. (101259868)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Conditional mediation requests (passkey AutoFill) in web content don’t abort when their Abort Signal is fired. (99535627)
• Fixed: AutoFill, including AutoFill for passkeys and passwords, now works with input elements contained in a Shadow DOM in web content. (103859657)
• Fixed: Calling PublicKeyCredential.isUserVerifyingPlatformAuthenticatorAvailable() or PublicKeyCredential.isConditionalMediationAvailable() from a web page in a WKWebView now correctly returns whether passkeys can be used, based on the Associated Domains of the calling app. (104094169)

Pencil

New Features

• Apple Pencil hover now provides Tilt and Azimuth support. (105412781)

Safari Web Extensions

• Added support for browser.storage.session to store up to 10MB of data in-memory. (79283961)
• Added support for persistent content scripts via browser.scripting.registerContentScript, browser.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts, browser.scripting.unregisterContentScripts, and scripting.updateContentScripts. (91261369)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed browser.webNavigation events firing for hosts where the extension didn’t have access. Extensions should request host permissions for sites to receive events. (100204850)

SKAdNetwork

Resolved Issues

• Fixed an issue where SKAdNetwork for Web Ads didn’t accept ad impressions. (104839712)

StoreKit

New Features

• New StoreKit 2 APIs are available for promoted in-app purchases. Apps can receive promoted product purchase data from the App Store with PurchaseIntent.intents and can manage promoted order and visibility with Product.PromotionInfo. (85321849)

SwiftUI

New Features

A family of new view modifiers lets you build even richer resizable sheet experience with SwiftUI. Use these new modifiers to make the view behind a sheet interactive, provide a translucent background, control scrolling and expansion behavior, and even adjust the corner radius of the sheet.

To let people interact with the content behind a sheet, use the .presentationBackgroundInteraction(_:) modifier. The following example enables people to interact with the view behind the sheet when the sheet is at the smallest detent, but not at the other detents:

[Code example omitted for brevity]

Give your sheet a translucent background with the new presentationBackground(_:) modifier. The following example uses the thick material as the sheet background:

[Code example omitted for brevity]

Add a custom view as the background of your sheet with the presentationBackground(alignment:content:) modifier.

By default, when a person swipes up on a scroll view in a resizable presentation, the presentation grows to the next detent. A scroll view embedded in the presentation only scrolls after the presentation reaches its largest size. Use the new presentationContentInteraction(_:) modifier to control which action takes precedence.

For example, you can request that swipe gestures scroll content first, resizing the sheet only after hitting the end of the scroll view, by passing the .scrolls value to this modifier:

[Code example omitted for brevity]

Apply the new .presentationCompactAdaptation(_:) modifier to the content of a modal presentation to control how it adapts to compact size classes on iPad and iPhone.

For example, the popover modifier presents a popover on iPad. By default, a popover adapts to the narrow horizontal size class on iPhone by showing as a sheet. In the example below, the .presentationCompactAdaptation(.none) modifier asks SwiftUI to show this as a popover on iPhone as well.

[Code example omitted for brevity]

Use .presentationCompactAdaptation(horizontal:vertical:) to adapt differently in horizontally and vertically compact size classes. (103257577)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: ScrollView has improved support for right to left languages by default. If you have a ScrollView that shouldn’t change its behavior in right to left languages, use the .environment(.layoutDirection, .leftToRight) modifier to ensure the ScrollView always sees a left to right layout direction. (65108729)
• Fixed: Presentations in SwiftUI using the ‘sheet’ or ‘fullScreenCover’ modifier can now be dynamically presented again while a dismiss animation is in progress. Previously, attempting to present again in this case would do nothing.
  Note: A data race in app code that was previously ignored might cause a sheet to be presented again with this change. If this happens, check that your state isn’t triggering a new presentation. (101487810)
• Fixed: Refreshable modifiers applied to lists will no longer also apply to lists or scroll views within the content of that list. Re-apply a refreshable modifier to the content of the list if this is desired behavior. (102052575)
• Fixed: The no-argument presentationBackground() modifier has been removed. Use one of the overloads taking an explicit ShapeStyle or View instead. (105598868)

Deprecations

• TimelineView initializers that pass an instance of TimelineView<_, _>.Context into its content closure have been deprecated in this release, and replaced with equivalent versions that pass an instance of TimelineViewDefaultContext instead.
  In TimelineView code that does not generate a warning, no action is needed: code that does not explicitly annotate the context type will use the new API when recompiled, without any change in functionality.
  In TimelineView code that does show this new deprecation warning, changing type annotations from TimelineView<_, _>.Context to TimelineViewDefaultContext will resolve the warning.
  This change improves the performance of compiling Swift and SwiftUI code. The new initializer uncouples the generic type of the TimelineView being instantiated from the generic type of the context passed into its content closure, avoiding the need for the compiler to reconcile those types during compilation. (100641618)
• Several table initializers that were previously deprecated and replaced in iOS 16.2 and macOS 13.1 have now been removed from the API. Using these initializers will now generate a build error, with a Fix-It to switch to the replacement initializer API. For code that doesn’t generate this error, no action is needed.
  This change, along with other improvements in the Swift compiler, improve the performance of compiling Swift and SwiftUI code.
  The new, replacement API adds a parameter, of:, that identifies the type of the Table’s row values separately from the initializer’s row and column content closure parameters. This improves compilation performance in two ways. First, by knowing the row value type up-front, the compiler doesn’t need to infer that type from the body implementations of each closure. Second, the compiler can immediately enforce that each closure uses the same row value type in its body implementation, instead of needing to verify that the inferred types are equal after evaluating each closure.

[Code example omitted for brevity]

SwiftUI Navigation

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Navigation destinations nested within NavigationStack and NavigationSplitView are detected more performantly and reliably, no longer logging update cycles. (97597634)
• Fixed: Navigation destinations that present a new view on top of a NavigationSplitView Column (rather than pushing a view onto a stack in that column) no longer cause an assertion failure on iOS or infinite loop on macOS when the destination view is itself a NavigationStack.
  For example, the below construction is functional

[Code example omitted for brevity]

(103278180)

• Fixed: Navigation destinations with data dependencies captured from ancestor views update more reliably.

[Code example omitted for brevity]

The iOS & iPadOS 26.5 SDK provides support to develop apps for iPhone and iPad running iOS & iPadOS 26.5 beta. The SDK comes bundled with Xcode 26.5, available from the Mac App Store. For information on the compatibility requirements for Xcode 26.5, see Xcode 26.5 Release Notes.

StoreKit

New Features

• You can read pricing information for subscriptions that have a monthly with 12-month commitment billing plan configuration in App Store Connect or StoreKit Testing in Xcode through the new PricingTerms model on SubscriptionInfo.pricingTerms. (150388310)
• You can specify the billing plan type to use for subscriptions that have a monthly with 12-month commitment billing plan configuration using the new billingPlanType PurchaseOption. (150388542)
• Read customer entitlement metadata for subscriptions purchased with a monthly billing plan type through the new CommitmentInfo data model on Transaction and SubscriptionRenewalInfo. (150388746)
• When you import both StoreKit and SwiftUI, you can merchandise the monthly billing plan configuration for subscriptions that have a monthly with 12-month commitment billing plan using built-in styles through the new preferredSubscriptionPricingTerms(_:) API. (150389069)

StoreKitTest

Known Issues

• SKTestSession cannot use the selected StoreKit configuration during unit tests, resulting in failed test actions. (172583218) (FB22237318)

Workaround: To use SKTestSession in 26.3 and 26.4, build and run the app on device using the same StoreKit configuration as the test. Then close the app and run the unit test using SKTestSession without changing any configuration settings in the test environment. This allows the configuration to be saved on device before the test begins and maintain your selected configuration settings through the test session.

Wallpaper

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Unity and Kaleidoscope wallpapers may fail to install or cannot be removed from the Wallpaper Gallery. (172926672)

Overview

The iOS & iPadOS 26.4 SDK provides support to develop apps for iPhone and iPad running iOS & iPadOS 26.4 beta. The SDK comes bundled with Xcode 26.4, available from the Mac App Store. For information on the compatibility requirements for Xcode 26.4, see Xcode 26.4 Release Notes.

Background Assets

New Features

• You can now check the status of an asset pack while offline by calling localStatus(ofAssetPackWithID:) or assetPackIsAvailableLocally(withID:) on the shared asset pack manager. The former method returns all available status information. The latter returns only a Boolean value but can be called synchronously. Not all status information is available offline. (164498466)
• You can make the latest version of an asset pack available locally by calling ensureLocalAvailability(of:requireLatestVersion:) on the shared asset pack manager and passing true to the shouldUpdate parameter. (166237389)

Known Issues

• Apps might crash when downloading asset packs. (169648111)
  Workaround: If an app crashes due to this issue, then relaunch it. The app should then have local access to the asset pack that it was downloading when it crashed.

External Media

Known Issues

• HFS external media might fail to mount automatically. (168672160)
  Workaround: For macOS only, use CLI tool diskutil mount to attach the relevant disk device.

Feedback

Known Issues

• After submitting a crash/panic report, Feedback UI’s close button might become unresponsive. (170091186)
  Workaround: Locking and unlocking the device helps get out of this state.

Memory Integrity Enforcement for Applications

New Features

• Applications can now opt in to the full protections of Memory Integrity Enforcement for enhanced memory safety protection. Previously applications were limited to Soft Mode. (160719439)

Messages

New Features

• RCS end-to-end encryption is now available for testing in this beta. This feature is not shipping in this release and will be available to customers in a future software update for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS. End-to-end encryption is in beta and is not available for all devices or carriers. Conversations labeled as encrypted are encrypted end-to-end, so messages can’t be read while they’re sent between devices. In this beta, RCS encryption is available for testing between Apple devices and is not yet testable with other platforms. (170160585)

Networking

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Multiple processes leak CFRunLoopSource objects when Automatic proxy configuration (PAC) or Auto proxy discovery are configured. For clients of the CFNetwork Execute Proxy Auto Configuration URL and CFNetwork Execute Proxy Auto Configuration Script API, please check to make sure your process is not working around the leak by overreleasing the CFRunLoopSourceRef returned by those functions or the CFArrayRef and CFErrorRef passed to the completion. (166839810) (FB21376045)

Reality Composer

Known Issues

• Reality Composer iOS can no longer export projects as .reality or USDZ. Opening export menu results in an empty panel. (170091896)

StoreKit

New Features

• New fields revocationType and revocationPercentage have been added to Transaction. (148858551)

SwiftUI

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: SwiftUI does not surface the latest .userActivity as the current user activity. (163136831)

Known Issues

• Multiple implicit SwiftUI animations (triggered by RealityViewContent.animate or Entity.animate) that modify a RealityKit component’s properties, are combined only when the implicit animations target the same set of component properties. For example, if you initiate an implicit animation on Transform.scale and then initiate an implicit animation on Transform.scale and Transform.translation then the animations affecting the scale property will be independent of each other, and will not combine. In this case, the most recently initiated animation will overwrite the scale property. (169723142)
  Workaround: Ensure the same component properties are animated by subsequent implicit animations when possible.

UIKit

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: KeyboardNotification might not send. (165479264)

iOS & iPadOS 26.2 SDK

The iOS & iPadOS 26.2 SDK provides support to develop apps for iPhone and iPad running iOS & iPadOS 26.2 beta. The SDK comes bundled with Xcode 26.2, available from the Mac App Store. For information on the compatibility requirements for Xcode 26.2, see Xcode 26.2 Release Notes.

Fixed

• The Allocations instrument sometimes fails to report reference counting operations for native Swift types. (163080666)
• PermissionKit Significant App Update API is not testable in sandbox. (163601229)
• Fixed: An issue prevents the purchase of a subscription using a win-back offer when testing with StoreKit Testing in Xcode. (162357552) (FB20604848)

SubscriptionStatus

• SubscriptionStatus.all returns old SubscriptionStatus after a subscription change. (163505178)
• Workaround: Wait 24 hours and try again.

TLS Client Hello

The default TLS Client Hello has been modified. If your app or website communicates with servers configured with strict bot-detection or security policies that only allow traffic with known TLS fingerprints, then users might be unable to login or perform other actions.
TLS Client Hellos are expected to change across releases as Apple works to offer the most secure TLS options. Servers should adopt resilient and adaptable bot-detection policies that can handle changes in TLS Client Hellos. Overly restrictive policies can cause difficult to triage disruptions to user experience. (163151032)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed an issue where a scrollable chart did not respect the initial non-zero binding value passed to chartScrollPosition. (114889276)

SwiftUI

New Features

• Use _logChanges() to log causes of SwiftUI view updates.
  Call the new debugging method _logChanges() in the body of a SwiftUI view to log information about why the system is updating the view. For example:
  struct MyView: View {
  #if DEBUG
  let _ = Self._logChanges()
  #endif
  // … rest of view body …
  }
  As well as the physical property names, “@self” marks that the view value itself has changed, and “@identity” marks that the identity of the view has changed (that is, that the persistent data associated with the view has been recycled for a new instance of the same type).
  The new _logChanges() method is like the existing _printChanges() one, except that the new method uses the system console, which is useful in some debugging workflows.
  Calls to _logChanges() log at the info level to the “com.apple.SwiftUI” subsystem with the category “Changed Body Properties”. (113352555)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: Resolved a possible Swift access conflict crash that could occur with toolbar items. (113992797)

Object Capture

New Features

• A new manual bounding box flow is now initiated if automatic object detection fails to find an object, particularly in cases where there is no salient ground plane. In this flow, the user is expected to utilize the standard manual bounding box controls to indicate the bounding box of the object to capture by adjusting the provided starting box placed in the world in front of the user. You can determine if this mode has been activated by observing for the new element .objectNotDetected, which will be added to the ObjectCaptureSession’s Feedback set when the manual flow has been activated. You can use this to provide notification and/or instructions to the user about this manual box flow as desired. (113474123)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed an issue where an ObjectCaptureView was incorrectly rotating the point cloud view in landscape UI orientations. (114248688) (FB13030239)

In the Settings app, go to Siri & Search > Language > English (India) and choose English & Hindi as the Preferred Response Language. Then ask Siri something in Hindi. (114742290)

StoreKit

New Features

• In StoreKit testing in Xcode, a billing error StoreKit message will be sent when a subscription tries to renew while the Enable Billing Retry on Renewal setting is enabled in the StoreKit configuration file. Use the messages listener API to control when StoreKit messages are displayed in your app. (101869442)
• productDescriptionHidden(_:) API can be used to configure the visibility of product descriptions in ProductView, StoreView, and SubscriptionStoreView instances within a view hierarchy. When building with Xcode 15.3, the view modifier can be used even if your app is running on iOS 17.0, iPadOS 17.0, macOS 14.0, tvOS 17.0, watchOS 10.0, visionOS 1.0, or later.
  When implementing a product view style, it can support this new view modifier by checking the descriptionVisibility property on the configuration value. (110414819) (FB12261973)
• You can use SubscriptionStoreView to present promotional offers by adding the subscriptionPromotionalOffer(offer:signature:) modifier.
  If you’re already using inAppPurchaseOptions(_:) modifier to support promotional offers for StoreKit views, you should adopt the new API instead when your app is running on iOS 17.4, iPadOS 17.4, macOS 14.4, tvOS 17.4, watchOS 10.4, visionOS 1.1 or later. Do not use both APIs to apply a promotional offer for the same view. (115358806)

Resolved Issues

• Fixed: The isEligibleForIntroOffer property and isEligibleForIntroOffer(for:) method now reflect ineligibility in cases where a customer would otherwise be eligible for the offer if they weren’t actively subscribed. This means a customer which is not currently eligible for an introductory offer may become eligible in the future.
  Customers who redeem an introductory offer for a given subscription group will continue to never be eligible for another introductory offer in that subscription group. You can detect this case this by checking if any one transaction with a matching subscriptionGroupID has the type property on offer set to introductory. (103604770) (FB11889732)
• Fixed an issue causing SKAdNetwork versions 2.2 and 3.0 to not accept impressions or send postbacks. (121223565)

• Fixed: Resolved an issue with programmatically present an alert or sheet simultaneously with dismissing another sheet. The new alert or sheet would not show but now it will. If you have code that presents the same sheet programmatically from multiple places in your view hierarchy at the same time, that sheet might no longer appear. Make sure that any sheet modifiers that are in the view hierarchy at the same time use distinct isPresented or item bindings. (117475214)

WebKit

Resolved Issues

• Fixed HTML content not displaying in a Simulator, affecting projects using the web extension project template. (121338366)
