At WWDC25 we launched a new type of Lab event for the developer community - Group Labs. A Group Lab is a panel Q&A designed for a large audience of developers. Group Labs are a unique opportunity for the community to submit questions directly to a panel of Apple engineers and designers. Here are the highlights from the WWDC25 Group Lab for UI Frameworks. How would you recommend developers start adopting the new design? Start by focusing on the foundational structural elements of your application, working from the "top down" or "bottom up" based on your application's hierarchy. These structural changes, like edge-to-edge content and updated navigation and controls, often require corresponding code modifications. As a first step, recompile your application with the new SDK to see what updates are automatically applied, especially if you've been using standard controls. Then, carefully analyze where the new design elements can be applied to your UI, paying particular attention to custom controls or UI that could benefit from a refresh. Address the large structural items first then focus on smaller details is recommended. Will we need to migrate our UI code to Swift and SwiftUI to adopt the new design? No, you will not need to migrate your UI code to Swift and SwiftUI to adopt the new design. The UI frameworks fully support the new design, allowing you to migrate your app with as little effort as possible, especially if you've been using standard controls. The goal is to make it easy to adopt the new design, regardless of your current UI framework, to achieve a cohesive look across the operating system. What was the reason for choosing Liquid Glass over frosted glass, as used in visionOS? The choice of Liquid Glass was driven by the desire to bring content to life. The see-through nature of Liquid Glass enhances this effect. The appearance of Liquid Glass adapts based on its size; larger glass elements look more frosted, which aligns with the design of visionOS, where everything feels larger and benefits from the frosted look. What are best practices for apps that use customized navigation bars? The new design emphasizes behavior and transitions as much as static appearance. Consider whether you truly need a custom navigation bar, or if the system-provided controls can meet your needs. Explore new APIs for subtitles and custom views in navigation bars, designed to support common use cases. If you still require a custom solution, ensure you're respecting safe areas using APIs like SwiftUI's safeAreaInset. When working with Liquid Glass, group related buttons in shared containers to maintain design consistency. Finally, mark glass containers as interactive. For branding, instead of coloring the navigation bar directly, consider incorporating branding colors into the content area behind the Liquid Glass controls. This creates a dynamic effect where the color is visible through the glass and moves with the content as the user scrolls. I want to know why new UI Framework APIs aren’t backward compatible, specifically in SwiftUI? It leads to code with lots of if-else statements. Existing APIs have been updated to work with the new design where possible, ensuring that apps using those APIs will adopt the new design and function on both older and newer operating systems. However, new APIs often depend on deep integration across the framework and graphics stack, making backward compatibility impractical. When using these new APIs, it's important to consider how they fit within the context of the latest OS. The use of if-else statements allows you to maintain compatibility with older systems while taking full advantage of the new APIs and design features on newer systems. If you are using new APIs, it likely means you are implementing something very specific to the new design language. Using conditional code allows you to intentionally create different code paths for the new design versus older operating systems. Prefer to use if #available where appropriate to intentionally adopt new design elements. Are there any Liquid Glass materials in iOS or macOS that are only available as part of dedicated components? Or are all those materials available through new UIKit and AppKit views? Yes, some variations of the Liquid Glass material are exclusively available through dedicated components like sliders, segmented controls, and tab bars. However, the "regular" and "clear" glass materials should satisfy most application requirements. If you encounter situations where these options are insufficient, please file feedback. If I were to create an app today, how should I design it to make it future proof using Liquid Glass? The best approach to future-proof your app is to utilize standard system controls and design your UI to align with the standard system look and feel. Using the framework-provided declarative API generally leads to easier adoption of future design changes, as you're expressing intent rather than specifying pixel-perfect visuals. Pay close attention to the design sessions offered this year, which cover the design motivation behind the Liquid Glass material and best practices for its use. Is it possible to implement your own sidebar on macOS without NSSplitViewController, but still provide the Liquid Glass appearance? While technically possible to create a custom sidebar that approximates the Liquid Glass appearance without using NSSplitViewController, it is not recommended. The system implementation of the sidebar involves significant unseen complexity, including interlayering with scroll edge effects and fullscreen behaviors. NSSplitViewController provides the necessary level of abstraction for the framework to handle these details correctly. Regarding the SceneDelagate and scene based life-cycle, I would like to confirm that AppDelegate is not going away. Also if the above is a correct understanding, is there any advice as to what should, and should not, be moved to the SceneDelegate? UIApplicationDelegate is not going away and still serves a purpose for application-level interactions with the system and managing scenes at a higher level. Move code related to your app's scene or UI into the UISceneDelegate. Remember that adopting scenes doesn't necessarily mean supporting multiple scenes; an app can be scene-based but still support only one scene. Refer to the tech note Migrating to the UIKit scene-based life cycle and the Make your UIKit app more flexible WWDC25 session for more information.

Here’s a recap of the Live Q&A for SwiftUI foundations: Build great apps with SwiftUI. If you participated and asked questions, thank you for coming and participating! If you weren’t able to join us live we hope this recap is useful Where can I watch the VOD? Is the sample code “Wishlist” that was shown available for download? You can view the replay of the entire event here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3vloOtZLkQ The sample code for the Wishlist app will be made available in the coming weeks on the Apple Developer website, we'll send an update via email when it is available. What are the best practices when it comes to building complex navigations in SwiftUI? The developer website has documentation on navigation style best practices. Explore navigation basics like NavigationStack and TabView to get a ground-up understanding. For documentation on navigation APIs see Navigation. How can I integrate UIKit with my SwiftUI app? What about adding SwiftUI into my UIKit app? See UIKit integration: Add UIKit views to your SwiftUI app, or use SwiftUI views in your UIKit app. Both UIKit and SwiftUI provide API to show a view hierarchy of the other. For UIKit to SwiftUI, you would use UIViewControllerRepresentable. For SwiftUI to UIKit, you would use UIHostingController. Landmarks: Interfacing with UIKit walks you through step by step how to implement UIKit in SwiftUI with UIViewControllerRepresentable, and this WWDC22 video demonstrates UIHostingController, for those that want to add SwiftUI to their UIKit. Does Wishlist feature a new iOS 26 font? How can I add custom fonts and text of my app? We’re glad to hear many of you liked wide text shown in Wishlist, however, It is the default system font with some light SwiftUI styling! Check it out for yourself in the sample code when made available, and you can learn more about customizing fonts and text by seeing Font and Applying custom fonts to text. Does Xcode have a dependency graph we can use to optimize our SwiftUI Views? Xcode comes with Instruments. Instruments is the best way to figure out what is causing excessive updates and other issues with performance. That link provides direct tutorials and resources for how to use and understand. Previews also have many useful tools for analyzing SwiftUI views, for more info see Previews in Xcode Check out this video from our latest WWDC Optimize SwiftUI performance with Instruments for information on how to use Instruments to profile and optimize your app with real-world applications If you still have questions, Check out the Instruments section of these forums and create a post so the community has the opportunity to help guide you. Are there UI debugging tools to help diagnose layout issues? Yes, Xcode also features a View Debugger located by selecting the View Debug Hierarchy, pictured below. Use the View Debugger to capture and inspect your view hierarchy, identifying which views affect window sizing. The SwiftUI Inspector also lets you examine view frames and layout behavior. See Diagnosing issues in the appearance of a running app to learn about debugging visual and layout issues. As an absolute beginner, what would be the first go-to step to go for training? Do I need prior knowledge of frameworks to get started with SwiftUI? A great place to learn how to develop for Apple platforms is with Pathways! Many developers start with Develop in Swift tutorials, which exposes you to several frameworks while teaching you the basics of SwiftUI. When you're ready to take your learning further, you can read the documentation for the specific frameworks that interest you at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/.

I have an application named "XY" that has been launched in several countries. Now, I intend to launch it in Turkey, but we are facing legal issues preventing us from using "XY" as the app's display name. Following the documentation, I localized the app's display name to "ZX" for both Turkish and English (Turkey). However, when users change their device settings, they do not see an option for English (Turkey) language selection. I assumed that for Turkish users, English (Turkey) would be the default language, but this is not the case. Could someone please assist me in resolving this issue? I've investigated options for localizing the display name based on region, but it seems that this functionality isn't feasible on iOS. In contrast, it's relatively straightforward to achieve on Android platforms.

In the example code below: OuterView has a @State var number: Int? = 0 InnerView expects a binding of type Int. OuterView uses Binding.init(_: Binding<Value?>) to convert from Binding<Int?> to Binding<Int>?. If OuterView sets number to nil, there is a runtime crash: BindingOperations.ForceUnwrapping.get(base:) + 160 InnerView is being evaluated (executing body?) when number is nil despite the fact that it shouldn't exist in that configuration. Is this a bug or expected behavior? struct OuterView: View { @State var number: Int? = 1 var body: some View { if let binding = Binding($number) { InnerView(number: binding) } Button("Doesn't Crash") { number = 0 } Button("Crashes") { number = nil } } } struct InnerView: View { @Binding var number: Int var body: some View { Text(number.formatted()) } } There is a workaround that involves adding an extension to Optional<Int>: extension Optional<Int> { var nonOptional: Int { get { self ?? 0 } set { self = newValue } } } And using that to ensure that the binding has a some value even when number is nil. if number != nil { InnerView(number: $number.nonOptional) } This works, but I don't understand why it's necessary. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Below is a basic test app to resemble an actual app I am working on to hopefully better describe an issue I am having with tab view. It seems only in split screen when I am triggering something onAppear that would cause another view to update, or another view updates on its own, the focus gets pulled to that newly updated view instead of staying on the view you are currently on. This seems to only happen with views that are listed in the more tab. In any other orientation other than 50/50 split this does not happen. Any help would be appreciated. struct ContentView: View { @State var selectedTab = 0 var body: some View { NavigationStack { NavigationLink(value: 0) { Text("ENTER") }.navigationDestination(for: Int.self) { num in TabsView(selectedTab: $selectedTab) } } } } struct TabsView: View { @Binding var selectedTab: Int @State var yikes: Int = 0 var body: some View { if #available(iOS 18.0, *) { TabView(selection: $selectedTab) { MyFlightsView(yikes: $yikes) .tabItem { Label("My Flights", systemImage: "airplane.circle") }.tag(0) FlightplanView() .tabItem { Label("Flight Plan", systemImage: "doc.plaintext") }.tag(1) PreFlightView() .tabItem { Label("Pre Flight", systemImage: "airplane.departure") }.tag(2) CruiseView(yikes: $yikes) .tabItem { Label("Cruise", systemImage: "airplane") }.tag(3) PostFlightView() .tabItem { Label("Post Flight", systemImage: "airplane.arrival") }.tag(4) MoreView() .tabItem { Label("More", systemImage: "ellipsis") }.tag(5) NotificationsView() .tabItem { Label("Notifications", systemImage: "bell") }.tag(6) }.tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable) } } }

I'm implementing a Map with user location customization in SwiftUI using iOS 17+ MapKit APIs. When using the selection parameter with Map, the default blue dot user location becomes tappable but shows an empty annotation view. However, using UserAnnotation makes the location marker non-interactive. My code structure: import SwiftUI import MapKit struct UserAnnotationSample: View { @State private var position: MapCameraPosition = .userLocation(fallback: .automatic) @State private var selectedItem: MapSelection<MKMapItem>? var body: some View { Map(position: $position, selection: $selectedItem) { // UserAnnotation() } .mapControls { MapUserLocationButton() } } } Key questions: How can I replace the empty annotation view with a custom avatar when tapping the user location? Is there a way to make UserAnnotation interactive with selection? Should I use tag modifier for custom annotations? What's the proper way to associate selections?

I was determined to fully rely on SwiftUI's navigation system giving the fact I'm starting a new project - strongly reconsidering this after a very basic requirement. Namely: navigate between my two screens while wanting to hide the back button label. One of them has a large navigation title The other one has no navigation title The problem is that back button icon simply jumps from top, a little bit down (where the title is supposed to be) and then back to top while navigating - resulting in a rough bouncy animation. struct ParentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { WelcomeView() .navigationDestination(for: WelcomeRoute.self) { route in destinationView(for: route) } } } ... } struct WelcomeView: View { var body: some View { ScrollView { VStack { ... NavigationLink(value: WelcomeRoute.Routes.next) { Text("Next screen") } } } .navigationTitle("WELCOME") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.large) } } struct NextWelcomeView: View { var body: some View { ScrollView { VStack { .... Text("Hello") } } .toolbarRole(.editor) } }

Pasting either plain or styled text into any TextEditor results in a memory leak. import SwiftUI struct EditorView: View { @State private var inputText: String = "" var body: some View { VStack{ TextEditor(text: $inputText) .frame(minHeight: 150) } } }

I have a controller that displays a pdf using UIDocumentInteractionController as the presented view. When users open it up, it shows fine. User gets the app backgrounded and session timed out. After timed out, when the app is brought to foreground, I bring our loginVC by removing the old VC used to show the UIDocumentInteractionController. All the crashes are happening at this point. I am not able to reproduce it, but our alert systems show we have crashes happening. The code that shows the pdf is straight forward documentViewController = UIDocumentInteractionController() documentViewController?.delegate = self documentViewController?.url = url documentViewController?.presentPreview(animated: true) and we reset it to nil in delegate documentInteractionControllerDidEndPreview Based on the crash trace, it seems like the crash happens when our login VC replaces it and only when pdf was displayed. The reason of stressing ONLY because when we have other viewcontroller present and they are removed in a similar way, we do not see any issue. So we always replace first and then add a new one childViewController.willMove(toParent: nil) childViewController.viewIfLoaded?.removeFromSuperview() childViewController.removeFromParent() addChild(childViewController) view.addSubview(childViewController.view) childViewController.view.frame = view.bounds childViewController.didMove(toParent: self) Raised a ticket with Apple, but I haven't heard back, and it's been a month. Posting here in case anyone experiences the same and has any solutions. I saw some related posts, and solution was to remove the pdf the moment the app goes to the background, but I am trying to find some alternate solution if possible.

Prime Objective I am trying to have a scroll view with a fixed header, a fixed footer, and a WKWebView in between. Using JavaScript, the height of the webView is determined and set to be large enough to hold the entire content. The Problem When selecting text on the webView, the view does not scroll when the edges are reached (this works if the webView is shown without being embedded in a Scroll view, or if it is the last element) What did I try? I tried reading the scroll view, or adding a gesture recognizer, but all of that does not work because the selection is essentially a system task Sourcecode Sourcecode to demonstrate the issue can be found on GitHub

I need someone to tell me if it’s possible to switch my whole app from user defaults to core data. My app is pretty data and calculation intensive and I don’t think user defaults is enough to store and retrieve all the data. Also, I need my app to be iCloud enabled so that the user can access their data from any of their devices. (I’m very new to this coding thing and I’ve been using AI for my entire app)

Hi, I’m practicing with NavigationSplitView for macOS and customizing the sidebar. I’ve managed to adjust most parts, but I couldn’t remove the sidebar’s divider. It seems like it’s not possible in modern SwiftUI. My AppKit knowledge is also not very strong. How can I remove the sidebar divider? I want to use a plain background. I also solved it by creating my own sidebar, but I wanted to try it using NavigationSplitView.

I have created an AppIntent and added it to shortcuts to be able to read by Siri. When I say the phrase, the Siri intent dialog appears just fine. I have added a custom SwiftUI View inside Siri dialog box with 2 buttons with intents. The callback or handling of those buttons is not working when initiated via Siri. It works fine when I initiate it in shortcuts. I tried using the UIButton without the intent action as well but it did not work. Here is the code. static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "My Custom Intent" static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = false @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some ShowsSnippetView & ProvidesDialog { return .result(dialog: "Here are the details of your order"), content: { OrderDetailsView() } } struct OrderDetailsView { var body: some View { HStack { if #available(iOS 17.0, *) { Button(intent: ModifyOrderIntent(), label : { Text("Modify Order") }) Button(intent: CancelOrderIntent(), label : { Text("Cancel Order") }) } } } } struct ModifyOrderIntent: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Modify Order" static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = true @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some OpensIntent { // performs the deeplinking to app to a certain page to modify the order } } struct CancelOrderIntent: AppIntent { static let title: LocalizedStringResource = "Cancel Order" static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = true @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some OpensIntent { // performs the deeplinking to app to a certain page to cancel the order } } Button(action: { if let url = URL(string: "myap://open-order") { UIApplication.shared.open(url) } }

Hello. I'm building an iOS application that builds a framework named Design.framework using Xcode 16.1.

And how am I supposed to handle devices prior to iOS 18 which do not have this library? is adding the linker flag the right way forward?

I am developing a macOS app using SwiftUI, and I am encountering an issue when launching the app at login. The app starts as expected, but the window does not appear automatically. Instead, it remains in the Dock, and the user must manually click the app icon to make the window appear. Additionally, I noticed that the timestamp obtained during the app's initialization (init) differs from the timestamp obtained in .onAppear. This suggests that .onAppear does not trigger until the user interacts with the app. However, I want .onAppear to execute automatically upon login. Steps to Reproduce Build the app and add it to System Settings > General > Login Items as an item that opens at login. Quit the app and restart the Mac. Log in to macOS. Observe that the app starts and appears in the Dock but does not create a window. Click the app icon in the Dock, and only then does the window appear. Expected Behavior The window should be created and appear automatically upon login without requiring user interaction. .onAppear should execute immediately when the app starts at login. Observed Behavior The app launches and is present in the Dock, but the window does not appear. .onAppear does not execute until the user manually clicks the app icon. A discrepancy exists between the timestamps obtained in init and .onAppear. Sample Code Here is a minimal example that reproduces the issue: LoginTestApp.swift import SwiftUI @main struct LoginTestApp: App { @State var date2: Date init(){ date2 = Date() } var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { MainView(date2: $date2) } } } MainView.swift import SwiftUI struct MainView: View { @State var date1: Date? @Binding var date2: Date var body: some View { Text("This is MainView") Text("MainView created: \(date1?.description ?? "")") .onAppear { date1 = Date() } Text("App initialized: \(date2.description)") } } Test Environment Book Pro 13-inch, M1, 2020 macOS Sequoia 15.2 Xcode 16.2 Questions Is this expected behavior in macOS Sequoia 15.2? How can I ensure that .onAppear executes automatically upon login? Is there an alternative approach to ensure the window is displayed without user interaction?

In UIKit, certain events like a button tap can be simulated using: button.sendActions(for: .touchUpInside) This allows us to trigger the button’s action programmatically. However, in SwiftUI, there is no direct equivalent of sendActions(for:) for views like Button. What is the recommended approach to programmatically simulate a SwiftUI button tap and trigger its action? Is there an alternative mechanism to achieve this(and for other events under UIControl.event) , especially in scenarios where we want to test interactions or trigger actions without direct user input?

Hello, I can't seem to set any breakpoint in didSet for all properties inside Observable. Is this a bug? XcodeVersion 15.2 (15C500b) Thanks!

I'm using Xcode 14.3.1 on macOS 13.5, and I've managed to reproduce my issue in a trivial application. All the project settings are left at the defaults for a macOS project. It looks like using a GroupBox breaks the ability of XCTest to find popovers connected to buttons (I suspect any UI element) inside the GroupBox. The debug console output from the code below lists 15 descendants from my window with the outside-the-GroupBox popover open, and one of them is definitely a popover. With the inside-the-GroupBox popover open, my window only shows nine descendants, and no popover (the rest of the difference is the popover's contents). It's simple enough I don't see what I could be doing wrong: import SwiftUI @main struct GroupBox_Popover_DemoApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State var outsidePopoverPresented: Bool = false @State var insidePopoverPresented: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { Button("Outside GroupBox") { outsidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item A"), isPresented: $outsidePopoverPresented) } .padding() GroupBox { Button("Inside GroupBox") { insidePopoverPresented = true } .popover(isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented, attachmentAnchor: .point(.leading), arrowEdge: .leading) { Popover(selected: .constant("Item B"), isPresented: $insidePopoverPresented) } .padding() } } .padding() } } struct Popover: View { @Binding var selected: String @Binding var isPresented: Bool var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading) { Picker("", selection: $selected) { Text("Item A").tag("Item A") Text("Item B").tag("Item B") Text("Item C").tag("Item C") } .pickerStyle(.radioGroup) HStack { Spacer() Button("Cancel") { isPresented = false } } } .padding() .frame(width: 200) } } Then in my UI tests: import XCTest final class GroupBox_Popover_DemoUITests: XCTestCase { let mainWindow = XCUIApplication().windows override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false XCUIApplication().launch() } func testPopovers() { let myDescendants = mainWindow.descendants(matching: .any) mainWindow.buttons["Outside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with outside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() mainWindow.buttons["Inside GroupBox"].click() print("Window descendants with inside popover open:") print(myDescendants.debugDescription) mainWindow.popovers.buttons["Cancel"].click() XCTAssert(true, "Test was able to hit cancel on both popovers.") } } Any ideas? Have I missed unchecking some "Ignore anything in a GroupBox" checkbox somewhere?

Hello, the LocalizedStringKey does not work in the live activity. What do you suggest me to use in order to get localization in the live activity?
