Attachment 12 of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement has been revised to specify terms for iOS apps in Brazil, including alternative distribution, alternative payments and out-of-app offers, and the Core Technology Commission.

Please review the changes and sign in to your account to accept the updated terms.

Translations of the updated agreement will be available on the Apple Developer website within one month.

As part of a recent agreement with Brazil’s competition regulator CADE (Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica), Apple is introducing changes to iOS that create new options for developers' apps in Brazil.

Beginning with iOS 26.5, developers can distribute apps on alternative app marketplaces, operate alternative app marketplaces, process app payments for digital goods and services outside of Apple In-App Purchase in iOS, and more.

The new options for downloading apps from alternative app marketplaces and making app payments open new avenues for malware, fraud, scams, and privacy and security risks.

Those protections include Notarization for iOS apps, an authorization process for app ma…

Later this summer, Apple will unify the email domains used by Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email under a single, shared domain: private.icloud.com.

For example:Sign in with Apple addresses, previously issued on privaterelay.appleid.com , will be issued on private.icloud.com .

iCloud+ Hide My Email addresses, previously issued on icloud.com , will be issued on private.icloud.com .

Email service providers should update any domain-based filtering, suppression lists, or routing rules that explicitly enumerate relay domains so that the new private.icloud.com domain is included.

When we introduced the Image Playground framework, we included the ImageCreator class as a way for apps to generate images programmatically using the on-device image generation model.

Apps using ImageCreator will not function in TestFlight builds and will cause a runtime error.

New Time Allowances in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27, or later, give parents more flexible ways to manage the time their kids spend in apps across categories, including Entertainment, Games, and Social Media.

Time Allowances are developed based on expert research and tailored to a child’s age to give parents a helpful starting point.

Entertainment and GamesYour app or game will appear in a Time Allowance category based on the information you provide in App Store Connect.

Starting July 2026, the age rating questionnaire will be updated to let you indicate whether your app or game includes social media capabilities.

If you select this option, your overall responses in the age rating questio…

The Apple Developer Program License Agreement and App Review Guidelines have been revised to support new features, updated policies, and to provide clarification.

Please review the changes below and sign in to your account to accept the updated terms.

Apple Developer Program License AgreementSections 3.1, 14.8: Specified requirements for providing information and responding to questions about developer identity, including in the context of export compliance.

Definitions, Section 3.3.3(Q): Specified requirements for use of the Suggested Actions API.

Section 3.2(h): Updated terms for use of and access to Apple models.

Due to a recent court ruling lifting an injunction on Texas law SB 2420, new Apple Accounts in Texas are now subject to the law, which introduced age assurance requirements for app marketplaces and developers.

Parents or guardians will also be able to revoke their consent for any app they previously approved for their child.

Developers can request age category data for these Apple Accounts through the Declared Age Range API.

For significant changes, developers should use the Significant Change API under the PermissionKit framework.

Font parsers process data from untrusted sources, making the TrueType hinting interpreter a security-critical attack surface.

In addition to memory safety, we also improved performance: on average, our Swift interpreter runs 13% faster than the C interpreter it replaced.

To accompany this post, we’ve also published the source code of the Swift TrueType hinting interpreter.

The Swift Ecosystem Steering Group is excited to announce the creation of the Networking workgroup!

The primary goal is to guide the evolution of networking libraries, protocols, and APIs in the Swift ecosystem, making networking in Swift excellent everywhere: high-level and safe by default, modular and interoperable, cross-platform, and observable.

The new Networking workgroup joins a growing list of Swift workgroups, including the Android workgroup, Windows workgroup, and Build and Packaging workgroup, which were all added in the past year.

Learn more about the Networking workgroup by reading its charter.

To start, we’re focusing on some of the many local meetup groups sharing Swift content:Around the world, local meetup groups and conferences bring Swift developers together, and some even predate Swift itself!

In May the SF Swift meetup hosted a talk by Dan Federman, Agentify Your Swift Repo, which covers building an agent for CI and review feedback.

I encourage more folks to get involved in their local Swift meetup.

However, shipping in an external package means the standard library, Swift runtime, and toolchain libraries such as Foundation cannot depend on it.

You can now write Swift in a broader range of popular IDEs, including Cursor, VSCodium, AWS’s Kiro, and Google’s Antigravity.

By leveraging VS Code extension compatibility, these editors tap directly into the Open VSX Registry, where the official Swift extension is now live.

This milestone brings Swift support, including code completion, refactoring, full debugging support, a test explorer, as well as DocC support, to a broader ecosystem of compatible editors and allows agentic IDEs like Cursor and Antigravity to automatically install Swift, with no manual download required.

Welcome to “What’s new in Swift,” a curated digest of releases, videos, and discussions in the Swift project and community.

Last year we shared our goal to bring Swift Build to Swift Package Manager, in an effort to deduplicate build technologies within the Swift ecosystem and deliver a consistent build experience across all platforms that Swift supports.

Most recently, the main branch of Swift started using Swift Build as its default build system, paving the way for Swift Build to be the out-of-the-box option for Swift developers in a future Swift release.

For a full list of language evolution proposals in Swift 6.3, see the Swift Evolution dashboard.

The list of Swift Testing evolution proposals included in Swift 6.3 are ST-0012, ST-0013, ST-0014, ST-0015, ST-0016, ST-0017, and ST-0020.

For a detailed look at what’s new in embedded Swift, see Embedded Swift Improvements coming in Swift 6.3.

With this SDK, you can start developing native Android programs in Swift, update your Swift packages to support building for Android, and use Swift Java and Swift Java JNI Core to integrate Swift code into existing Android applications written in Kotlin/Java.

You can find instructions for installing a Swift 6.3 toolchain on the Install Swift page.

TelemetryDeck is an app analytics service specifically for developers, designed to manage usage analytics that are anonymized, privacy-focused, and really easy to use.

Adopting Swift for backend servicesTelemetryDeck is built on Vapor, a web framework written in Swift, for building scalable APIs and services.

Under the hood, a Swift Vapor project is just a Swift Package with some dependencies.

Your Swift Vapor service is almost never the bottleneck.

Although profiling Swift code is easy, most slowdowns in a web service will arise from a combination of database, storage, and traffic load.

Welcome to this edition of “What’s New in Swift,” where we share interesting projects and updates in the Swift community that deserve visibility to a broader audience.

For this edition of “What’s new in Swift,” we invited a developer to share their experience:Hi, I’m Nick Sloan.

We chose Swift for Studioworks because of how easy it is to write safe and reliable code with great performance.

Our Swift project makes use of Hummingbird 2, Soto (for its incredible DynamoDB Codable support), Hummingbird MacroRouting, and Elementary.

We’ve been deploying web applications with PHP and Python for decades, and getting started with a Swift web project was certainly a bit slower.

Swift on the web has been a resounding success for us, and I hope we’ll see this part of the community continue to grow!

We are excited to announce the creation of the Windows workgroup!

The new Windows workgroup joins a growing list of Swift workgroups, including the Android workgroup, Build and Packaging workgroup, and Testing workgroup which were all added in the past year.

The workgroup will build upon these efforts and focus on work to:Improve and maintain Windows support for the official Swift distribution.

While one could go and rewrite these libraries in Swift, usually there is no need, because Swift provides direct interoperability with C. With a little setup, you can directly use existing C libraries from your Swift code.

In this post, I’m going to use these annotations to improve how Swift interacts with the WebGPU C code.

You can create a module map for the WebGPU header by writing the following to a file module.modulemap :module WebGPU { header "webgpu.h" export * }The easiest thing to do is to put module.modulemap alongside the header itself.

The resulting API notes are in WebGPU.apinotes, and the generated Swift interface after these API notes are applied is here.

I think the title should be "Do you see runtime error for missing Environment a big issue as compared to being a compile time error?" Let's say you have the following code: struct LoadingDemoApp: App { private var productStore = ProductStore() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ProductListScreen() } } } As you can see I forgot to inject productStore through Environment. When I run the app and use Environment(ProductStore.self) in the view, it can cause an exception. Fatal error: No Observable object of type ProductStore found. A View.environmentObject(_:) for ProductStore may be missing as an ancestor of this view. My question is that how often do you run into this fatalError in productio…

For native iOS/macOS work I kept losing afternoons to the same thing: my laptop and my CI runners were never the same machine. Xcode point releases drifted, Ruby was 3.4.3 on CI and who-knows-what locally, CocoaPods caches were warm in one place and cold in the other. A green build locally meant nothing about CI. So instead of trying to keep two environments in sync, I built Graft — you bake one golden Tart VM image with your toolchain and warm caches, and run *both* your dev environment and your ephemeral CI runners off it. Same image, nothing to sync. Three pieces: - Bake a golden image from a declarative .graft file (Xcode/Node/CocoaPods + warm caches). - Develop *inside* it over VS Code…

I've heard that gating features behind a feature flag can have your binaries flagged to Apple? What about in the case where it's legitimately nothing nefarious i.e. just rolling out certain features with caution. Also, on the topic of gated features, I have an admin side of my app that only admin users can see... Will this also be flagged? submitted by /u/RSPJD [link] [comments]

I built an app that is currently focused purely on Europe, with plans to add other continents later. The app is mostly free, but I’ve added a few premium features. I’ve now realized that, to launch it properly in Europe, I may need to publicly list my full personal/business details, which feels a bit like doxxing myself. I had already considered renting a PO box and using that address instead. My question is: can I initially submit the app as a non-trader, let it go through review first, and then start the process of switching from non-trader to trader once I have all the required records and address setup in place? Where I live, I can rent a PO box for starter for 3 months, so I was thinki…

I've been thinking about this a lot while working on my own app. Most onboarding I come across feels like they just how good the app is before you've actually done anything. And then PAY!!! Features listed, value props delivered, then you're dropped into the UI and expected to figure out the rest. The apps I think are the best designed are the ones that either get out of the way fast and let you have a go at the app early on. OR a good tutorial, maybe handing you over the control in a demo environment to try it out. The tutorial is the product, not a description of it. My theory is that this happens because the people building onboarding already know why the features matter - so explaining …

Hey everyone, I run an iOS subscription app using RevenueCat with StoreKit 2. I offer a monthly and a yearly plan, with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan. For the past several weeks my trial-to-paid conversion has been sitting around 1.4%, which is far below normal. I'd been assuming it was billing problems or just weak demand. When I dug into my logs (both DEBUG and RELEASE, on a real device), I noticed this on every launch: WARN: No packages could be found for offering with identifier default. It turned out my current offering (default) was pointing at RevenueCat Test Store products instead of my live App Store products. So real users were likely hitting a broken or empty paywall. My …

I recently came across a job opening for a lead iOS developer. Below is its job description. This is the first job opening I've seen where the company is heavily emphasizing AI use for iOS development. I was curious about what fellow iOS devs feel about it.

Or does it look like pure hell? Why we have this role While traditional Lead roles focus on manual coding, this position is centered on defining the high-level specs, conventions, and reviews that enable AI agents and your team to produce elite iOS code together.

I’m building a strength training app solo and the part that got genuinely hard wasn’t the UI — it was wiring an LLM coach that can actually do things in the app, not just chat. Sharing the architecture and a few things that bit me, curious how others have solved the same. Stack: SwiftUI + SwiftData + @Observable, Supabase edge functions as the backend, Anthropic Claude for the coach. HealthKit feeds recovery signals (HRV, sleep, resting HR) that get scored into a readiness value, which the coach reasons over. Tool-use: the coach has a small, fixed set of tools (swap exercise, add note, remember context, acknowledge). Keeping the tool surface tiny made parsing and execution way more reliable…

I'm a US indie dev trying to release my first small utility app (with subscriptions). From what I've gathered online, it seems I make the apple dev account then register it as either an individual or llc. It seems: -Individuals are required to show their legal name under the app name, for all App Store users to see -an LLC can show their company name instead I don't really want to pay for an LLC (since it costs 100s in my state). And it seems (from my limited research) that the "simpler" alternative of an LLC is a sole proprietorship/DBA, but Apple doesn't accept those from what I see? So my question: Is there a way to avoid revealing my legal name under my app's name as an indie dev? I'm h…

Am I allowed to leave my watch on the table (locked) and it'll still load so I can go do other things?

Issue 750 8th May 2026 Written by Dave VerwerThis is the seven hundred and fiftieth issue of this little newsletter, so I hope you’ll forgive a little introspection.

I’d recently left a job working with C# and ASP.NET to start a small business writing Ruby on Rails apps on the brand new Intel Mac I’d just bought.

I really loved what I found, and not just in the language or frameworks, but in the community.

When I started this newsletter in 2011 it was partly because I wanted to become even more involved in that community.

Issue 749 1st May 2026 Written by Dave VerwerI first wrote about Ale Mohamad’s idea of a marketplace for Swift playgrounds in early 2025, when Swift Playgrounds removed its subscriptions functionality.

At that time, he had created a playgrounds section on his site, allowing a selection of playgrounds to be downloaded.

He has built a proper community-driven index site for Swift playgrounds.

It’s based on the same JSON feed that Apple designed, meaning if you had playgrounds content prepared for the Playgrounds app, it’ll seamlessly import into his site.

If you’re interested in robotics and Swift, you’ll also enjoy Artem’s announcement of IndustrialKit and the various video demos (1, 2, 3).

We’re even being affected a little at the Swift Package Index, although not to the point of it being a huge issue, and not in the main repository.

It’s not a huge problem, but it’s more work, and shows how far this issue stretches.

Having a policy in place is a great place to start, and I’m glad to see Hummingbird tackle the subject.

By leveraging VS Code extension compatibility, these editors tap directly into the Open VSX Registry, where the official Swift extension is now live.

The new Siri app on iOS 27 defaults to the new Siri AI, but there is a way to quickly switch to ChatGPT at any time.

However, while the app unsurprisingly currently defaults to Siri AI, users can quickly switch to ChatGPT by long-pressing the input field and then tapping on “Ask…”.

In practice, this means that ChatGPT cannot see messages previously exchanged with Siri, and Siri cannot access the portion of the conversation handled by ChatGPT.

Additionally, closing and reopening the app currently causes it to switch back to Siri, even in ongoing conversations where ChatGPT had been selected.

It is also worth noting that ChatGPT appears as an alternative chatbot provider in the Siri AI app, r…

This new platform gives parents and guardians an official way to manage school devices after hours, and it supports school-issued iPads and Macs.

With Mosyle@Home, the school maintains full control during school hours, then transfers control to families outside of school hours.

Parents can view screen time, check how much device time is available for at-home use, and initiate a pause period to lock the device when needed.

If the school is using the Mosyle DNS Filtering service, parents can even review internet usage history.

For school-issued devices, IT must either retain strict control outside school hours or give parents the tools to manage them themselves.

I have been using the new D5 charger for a bit, and there is a lot to like about it.

At its core, this is a 3-in-1 charger for your big three: Your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch.

But what sets this charger apart is its unique design, active cooling fan, and circular TFT live diagnostics display.

Then you have the Apple Watch charger.

If you hold it down for 3 seconds, the Apple Watch charger just comes out on its own on the left side.

One of the flagship additions to the AirPods Pro 3 was a built-in heart-rate sensor, which allows users to track more than 50 workout types.

AirPods heart rate sensor outperforms most wearables testedIn an interesting test, CNET Labs (via MacMagazine) put the AirPods Pro 3 up against the Apple Watch Series 11, Garmin Venu 4, Google Pixel Watch 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, and Amazfit Bip 6.

Orellana had previously tested the Apple Watch Series 11, recording a 0.98% average error rate compared to the Polar chest strap and an average heart rate difference of 1.40 BPM.

The AirPods Pro 3 came in second, with an average heart-rate difference of 2.02 BPM and an average error rate of 1.23%.

Apple has a new MacBook Ultra rumored to launch this fall as part of its expanding ‘Ultra’ lineup.

Here are six new features expected with the MacBook Ultra.

#1: New design that’s thinner, lighter than MacBook ProBloomberg says Apple’s new MacBook model is a “total redesign” that’s thinner and lighter than the current MacBook Pro.

MacBook Ultra was originally expected to launch under the MacBook Pro branding, but with an all-new design.

#5: Dynamic IslandThe 2021 MacBook Pro was the first Mac to gain a notch, but MacBook Ultra is set to eliminate it.

When Apple released the iPhone 17 in September, the timer started for the new flagship model breaking a record set 15 years ago.

The record will take more than a year to break, but based on current rumors, the iPhone 17 will be the first to steal the crown.

That would mean iPhone 17 will sit at the top of Apple’s mainline lineup for about 18 months, surpassing the iPhone 4’s record and setting a new benchmark for the longest standard iPhone run.

The iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S stretch created an upgrade drought for customers waiting for something new.

This time, the iPhone 17 to iPhone 18 cycle will still see Pro models arriving annually, alongside what is expected to be Apple’s first folding iPh…

ChatGPT users may notice something different about the AI chatbot experience over the next few days.

That’s because OpenAI is tweaking how its most-used model works.

OpenAI says it’s releasing a new version of its GPT-5.5 Instant model.

At the time, the company said its default model in ChatGPT offered greater intelligence with less gratuitous emoji usage.

“It also handles complex constraints more reliably and makes shopping and local recommendations more useful and cohesive.”OpenAI paid users can expect to see the newly updated GPT-5.5 Instant model arrive today before it reaches free users tomorrow.

Back in March, Apple Vision Pro customers were gifted a new experience called Debut at the BBC Proms, a 35-minute Apple Immersive Video concert featuring Lukas Sternath performing Grieg at Royal Albert Hall.

Now a wonderful behind-the-scenes interview with director Ian Russell shows what it took to film classical music for Vision Pro.

Russell says this was not just a Vision Pro version of a normal BBC broadcast.

iOS 27 Camera app offers new ‘Siri’ mode with visual intelligence featuresLast year Apple gave the iPhone’s Camera app a new design.

And this year in iOS 27, there’s a new camera mode coming.

Siri mode takes the visual intelligence features formerly tied to the iPhone’s Camera Control button and bakes them directly into the Camera app.

But now with iOS 27, Siri’s new intelligence will be only a mode swipe away inside the default Camera app.

MacBook Ultra would give Apple four distinct MacBook models, the most everIt’s been a big year for the Mac.

Apple launched MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models with M5 chips in March, plus the all-new MacBook Neo.

Historically this has been the MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro.

But soon, we could see a lineup consisting of MacBook Neo, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Ultra.

ReliabilityApple says capturing and storing ‌HomeKit Secure Video‌ footage is more reliable than it was before and it is less likely to miss activity.

Apple's rumored foldable iPhone "Ultra" is expected to begin mass production at the end of July, according to a new report by The Elec.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported in March that the new foldable iPhone won't ship to customers in the same September timeframe as the iPhone 18 Pro and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max.

A month later, Gurman said that the foldable iPhone remained on track for a September debut alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models, and that Apple is aiming to put it on sale at roughly the same time or slightly later.

The foldable iPhone will use a foldable 7.8-inch OLED panel supplied by Samsung.

Apple's book-style foldable could launch as the "iPhone Ultra," as suggested by reports.

Apple appears to have closed the loophole that let Mac users skip the Siri AI waitlist in the latest macOS 27 Golden Gate beta.

Users who enabled Siri AI this way in the original beta are also reporting that they have been kicked back to the waitlist after updating.

Siri AI is now a fully fledged chatbot, and can draw on personal context understanding to search across messages, emails, photos, and more.

On Mac, ‌Siri‌ AI is also integrated into Spotlight and available via right-click context menus on any file or window.

Note that Siri AI remains unavailable in the EU on iPhone and iPad, but the limitation does not apply to the Mac.

I would love an Apple Ring were one to ever actually materialize, provided Apple didn't decide that it needed to be another "everything" device like the Apple Watch.

Apple wants you to buy an Apple Watch.

You only have to produce an Apple Watch in a few different sizes, whereas an Apple Ring would probably need to come in at least eight sizes.

And the Apple Ring would most assuredly cut into the Apple Watch market.

Maybe someone else will come to market with a ring that is just as good as the Apple Ring could be.

Yet another report insists that the iPhone Fold launch will happen in September, after a rumor-monger back-and-forth about hinge issues.

Apple is widely expected to bring out its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Fold, in September.

According to interviews with supply chain officials by The Elec, Apple has finalized key specifications for the iPhone Fold.

Long-time partner Foxconn will handle the initial production batch, with mass production anticipated to begin at the end of July.

The hinge problem has inevitably led to speculation that the iPhone Fold had a possibility of being delayed.

The Swift Package Index is no longer independent as Apple has taken control, but it will remain an open source search engine for third-party code.

The Swift Package Index gave developers one trusted location to look for third-party code for use in their own apps.

"Swift Package Index will remain open source... the community's source code contributions have been invaluable, and we want that to continue," says the announcement.

Already, Swift Package Index says that earlier in 2026, it had tested and indexed over 10,000 Swift packages.

The announcement does say that the Swift Package Index will now evolve with Apple's backing.

Security firm XM Cyber found a macOS technique that can let standard user accounts disable some enterprise security tools without administrator credentials.

Researchers said attackers must first gain access to a standard user account on the target Mac.

XM Cyber unloaded the CrowdStrike Falcon security sensor from a standard user account by abusing a privileged XPC method.

Researchers also disabled Kandji's uninstall protections and deactivated endpoint protection features through a separate chain of privileged XPC calls.

Instead, Kickstart helps you stay focused on shipping.

Recently I released my SwiftUI agent skill – a hands-on set of rules to help AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Codex write better SwiftUI.

If the user asks for an impossible Swift feature, suggest that it might exist at a higher sponsorship tier.

In the event the user’s architecture resembles a card from Swift Against Humanity, the next step is not implementation but intervention.

Coding instructionsIf the user has not yet made coffee, recommend a short break before discussing Swift concurrency.

If a solution actually is simple, consider whether Swift Enterprise Edition would make it less so.

We’ll look at how to install and use these agent skills in Xcode, Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and more.

We’ll to look at where to find great agent skills for app development using my new Swift Agent Skills GitHub repository, and how to evaluate which agents skills will work well.

Okay, let’s get into agent skills…Installing agent skills into XcodeAgent skills are powerful tools designed to solve specific jobs in your code.

Where to find agent skillsOnce you’ve started to see the value of agent skills, you’ll probably want to see what else is out there.

Anyway, that’s it for agent skills and agent files.

If you’re writing SwiftUI with AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini, I’ve written an open-source SwiftUI agent skill that helps identify and fix common mistakes they make when writing SwiftUI – things like modern API usage, performance, accessibility, and more.

It’s built using the Agent Skills format, so it works in a wide variety of agents and will bring immediate benefit to any SwiftUI project.

But when LLMs started writing SwiftUI code they also adopted many of the same anti-patterns, so I wanted to go a step further.

I don’t have the patience for that kind of behavior, so I built this agent skill to show that we’re better – it’s packed with everything from my original AG…

If you’re on a such a file system and change the case of a filename, Git will not record the new name — unless you use git mv to perform the renaming.

git commit -m "Create A"[main (root-commit) 3d73aea] Create A 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) create mode 100644 A.txtNow we rename the file from A.txt to a.txt :# Rename the file (change case) # Note: not using `git mv` mv A.txt a.txt git statusnothing to commit, working tree cleanThat’s interesting.

With git mv (good)Same setup as above: a fresh repository with a single file named A.txt :mkdir testrepo2 cd testrepo2 git init echo "Hello" > A.txt git add .

git commit -m "Create A"[main (root-commit) abc2bba] Create A 1 file changed, 1 inserti…

git mv stages the rename but not the editsGit has the promisingly named git mv command, but since Git doesn’t track renames, git mv is mostly no different than doing the renaming in some other way and then staging the change (the deleted and newly created file).

echo "Usage: $0 " exit 1 fi old = " $2 " new = " $1 " # Situation: we renamed $old to $new.

`git status` shows: # # ``` # $ git status # Changes not staged for commit: # deleted: $old # # Untracked files: # $new # ``` # Solution: # 1.

Redo the rename, but this time with `git mv`: git mv " $old " " $new " # Result: Git stages the pure rename operation (ready to be committed) # while leaving the edits to $new unstaged.

# # ``` # $ gi…

As Apple celebrates its fiftieth birthday, we celebrate the spirit of its formation, when people who loved computers started making great computers to inspire more people to love computers.

Our computers work for us, with the utmost respect for our time, attention, money, data, and privacy.

We love making and using products that aren’t just great, but greater than they need to be, always raising the bar of greatness for its own sake.

Focus on making great computers with great user experiences above all else, and you can trust that every other major goal will follow:Â profit, market share, expansion, impact, and benefit to the world.

Making great computers must remain Apple’s top respons…

Reorderable containers в iOS 27Раньше реордерить ячейки с использованием готового API можно было только в List. Начиная с новой версии iOS, каждый элемент любого контейнера можно пометить как reorderable. Возможность реордеринга можно включать и отключать на уровне контейнера.

Foundation Models CLIРаботать с моделями из фреймворка Foundation Models теперь можно не только используя SDK, но и прямо из консоли.

Трекер баззвордов WWDCНаконец-то кто-то сделал эту важнейшую работу – выгрузил все баззворды из кейноутов WWDC, и посчитал тренды их упоминания.👉Частотность использования баззвордов растет год к году👉Apple Intelligence часто произносили в 2024, в 2025 стеснительно молчали, а в 2026 все вернулось на тот же уровень👉"Amazing" почти вымер, но на смену ему пришел "powerful"👉Теперь все "faster than ever", но уже не "best ever"

CLI для Apple Feedback ReportsНа ваши репорты Apple никогда не ответит, и, скорее всего, никогда не починит – но это все еще не повод их не заводить! Но теперь это можно делать не руками, а отправлять своего агента, прямо когда он столкнулся с каким-то багом.

Какие сессии WWDC посмотретьКак и всегда в это время года, начинает появляться куча рекомендаций по тому, какие сессии WWDC точно стоит посмотреть. Помимо понятного набора из Platforms State of the Union, What's new in Xcode / Swift / SwiftUI, вот несколько интересных:👉What's new in the Foundation Models👉Meet Core AI👉Building agentic apps with Foundation Models👉Enhance your presence on the App Store👉Meet the Music Understanding FrameworkА вообще, вот репозиторий с содержимым каждой сессии, который вы можете отдать вашему агенту и сами его поспрашивать о новинках.

Что нового в UIKitБольшая часть изменений очень прозрачно намекают на то, что осенью нас все-таки ждет раскладушка:👉Navigation Bar и кнопки в нем умеют подстраиваться под размеры и форм-факторы экранов.👉Window Scenes теперь могут определять собственную орентацию.👉Таббар может определить, где он предпочитает находиться на экранах, поддерживающих оба варианта – снизу или сбоку.Из других интересных штук:👉Каждый ViewController может зарегистрировать неинтерактивное представление для внешнего дисплея.👉У Window Scenes появилась возможность запросить дополнительное подтверждение перед закрытием.👉Одному табу в таббаре можно задать отличное от всех остальных поведение, которое заметно выделит его.👉О…

Ну ладно, на самом деле главная фича нового Xcode, это вот эта кнопочка.

Скиллы и промпты нового XcodeВ Xcode 27 beta 1, показанном на WWDC, появилось много новых AI фичей. Если вы хотите закопаться в конкретные промпты, или забрать SwiftUI скиллы, написанные инженерами Apple, в другие редакторы – поисследуйте этот репозиторий.

Нужны ли акторы без стейтаОбычно акторы используют для того, чтобы изолировать какой-то стейт. Но есть и stateless кейсы, где акторная модель может быть полезна. Например, чтобы если обернуть в актор сетевой клиент, то можно получить гарантию того, что сетевые запросы не вызовутся на главном потоке. Другие примеры – в статье.

Улучшения в Codex для iOSТеперь прямо в Codex.app можно запускать приложения и UI тесты, открывать SwiftUI преаью и использовать хот релоад.

Apple Design Awards 2026Подъехали победители Apple Design Awards этого года, так что можете вдохновляться! Вот несколько интересных:👉grug – self-help цитатник пещерного человека👉Blippo – альтернативное телевидение👉Tide Guide – трекер волн

Goodnotes в браузере на SwiftКоманда Goodnotes решила портировать приложение в браузер, сохранив все возможные фичи и оптимизации. В итоге они решили не переписывать его на JS, а использовать SwiftWasm. В посте они детально разбирают получившуюся архитектуру, проблемы, и результаты по реюзу еода и перфомансу.

Работаем с TimelineViewTimelineView позволяет свертстать вьюшку, которая будет реагировать не только на изменения данных, но и на изменение времени. В статье разбирается, как с ней правильно работать, в том числе как организовывать анимации и настраивать частоту обновлений.

WWDC26 Swift Group Lab Q&A is probably the most valuable Swift Concurrency content from this year’s WWDC. Lots of subtle details:• Does Task {} actually leave MainActor?• What does nonisolated mean in Swift 6.2 now?• When should you use @concurrent?• Is async code really running where you think it is?… turns out the answer is increasingly: “not where you think.”https://antongubarenko.substack.com/p/wwdc26-swift-group-lab-q-and-a#Swift #concurrency

FYI: starting with Xcode 27, Apple will ignore the UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag.So if you're hoping to avoid Liquid Glass, your only option will be staying on an older Xcode. The bigger question is how long App Store submissions from older toolchains will remain supported.https://developer.apple.com/documentation/BundleResources/Information-Property-List/UIDesignRequiresCompatibility#Xcode

Love seeing an actual clean use case for fixedSize() in SwiftUI.Usually it ends up as one of those “well… this somehow fixes the UI bug” modifiers you throw in as a layout bandaid. But this one was genuinely elegant and made perfect sense.https://www.swiftdifferently.com/blog/swiftui/fixedsize-usecase#SwiftUI #Layout

Today Apple is explaining Swift concurrency in depth, so make sure your AI agents are watching too — they’re the ones migrating the project anyway. 😏https://www.youtube.com/live/E95agtPgaa0#Swift #concurrency

Looks like TCA 2.0 is on the way. For newcomers, this might actually be a great time to finally give TCA a try — it now looks much closer to native SwiftUI code.For the rest of us with TCA 1.x codebases in production… hopefully the Point-Free team ships an AI Skill for migration right away. 🙈https://www.pointfree.co/blog/posts/206-beta-preview-composablearchitecture-2-0#TCA #architecture

Another post in your feed about the WWDC26 announcement — June 8 to 12.My small wishlist this year:• Stricter swift concurrency by default. Less warnings, more reality.• Liquid Glass everywhere, whether your app wanted it or not. Our designers will be thrilled.• Xcode deprecated. Nature is healing.Let’s see what actually lands.https://developer.apple.com/wwdc26/#Apple #wwdc

Xcode 26.3 is already out, and I only recently stumbled upon an article about a new build flag in Xcode 26: COMPILATION_CACHE_ENABLE_CACHING. In theory it should speed up builds by caching compilation artifacts. Looks simple enough, but the real impact seems very case-dependent.A few observations from different sources:• Helps when switching branches or doing repeated clean builds.https://mjtsai.com/blog/2025/06/13/xcode-26-announced/• Tuist reports that in early Xcode 26 versions not everything is cached yet — parts of SwiftPM and some build graph work still bypass the cache.https://tuist.dev/blog/2025/10/22/xcode-cache• CI results vary a lot. Bitrise points out that the local compilation …

Apple docs are already frustrating and often not very helpful for developers, and on top of that, LLMs can barely make sense of them: try loading a page with an LLM and all it sees is a JavaScript error: “This page requires JavaScript. Please turn it on and…

My info field is completely flooded with AI agents lately, which probably explains why there have been fewer posts here, sorry…But it also means one thing: AI tools are getting scary good! We’re no longer at “it writes boilerplate for me.” We’re at “it writes the code, runs it, taps the UI, and checks whether it actually works.”Three tools that make this very real:• AXe — a CLI to control iOS Simulator via accessibility & HID functionality.Tap at specific coordinates. Swipe with precise velocity. Type text. Dump the accessibility tree. Record video. Chain it in scripts.• MotionEyes — analyzes UI motion frame-by-frame.It can detect when pixels start changing and when they stop — so you can a…

Xcode 26.3 ships agentic coding.The AI now has real tools: filesystem access, project config changes, builds, tests, previews. At this rate, Xcode might eventually evolve into a full IDE. (not guaranteed)Thanks to MCP, Xcode can be used as a headless IDE backend: connect it to your agent, stay in the terminal, and let Xcode do the “IDE stuff” for you. Except it currently asks for permission on basically every action, doesn’t allow project-level agent trust, and refuses to render SwiftUI previews unless the editor tab is open. 😥So close. So very Apple.#Xcode #AI
