Request access to Bundles and SuitesOffer multiple subscriptions as a single Apple In-App Purchase in your apps with new Bundles and Suites capabilities.

With Bundles, people can access multiple subscriptions in one purchase — across a single app, multiple apps from the same developer, or even spanning multiple developers’ apps.

Bundles and Suites will be available later this year in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, tvOS 27, or later.

With Group Purchases, a subscriber can buy multiple seats in a single Apple In-App Purchase and invite others to join.

As part of agreements with select European competition authorities, Apple is introducing changes to its App Tracking Transparency framework in the European Union.

Beginning with iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2, developers will have the option to use an alternative version of the App Tracking Transparency system prompt in the EU.

The requirements for when you must seek permission to track users will remain the same.

Due to legal requirements, only the alternative version of the system prompt is available for apps distributed in Germany, France, Italy, Poland, and Romania.

Build your apps and games using the latest SDKs, test with TestFlight, and submit for review to the App Store.

Optimize your app for macOS 27. macOS 26 is the final release supporting Intel Mac computers and Rosetta — macOS 27 will be Apple silicon only.

Agam Mahajan, senior engineering manager: We’ve always built Swiggy Food natively, but Instamart and Dineout started as hybrid experiences.

That's when, in early 2024, we made the decision to transition them to native apps, using a combination of Swift and SwiftUI.

We then followed a phased approach: we shipped our first native experiences within weeks and completed the broader transition.

At an organizational level, we also wanted to bring all our experiences — Swiggy Food, Instamart, and Dineout — under a unified design system.

We initially replicated the existing UI in native, but later pivoted to adopting native design patterns with minor adjustments, improving reusability, accelerating…

These adjustments are made using publicly available exchange rate information from reputable financial media (e.g., The Wall Street Journal) or financial companies (e.g., Bloomberg) to help make sure prices for apps and In-App Purchases stay consistent across all storefronts.

Prices won’t change on the storefronts where you manually manage prices instead of using the automated equalized prices.

The Pricing and Availability section of Apps has been updated in App Store Connect to display these upcoming price changes.

As always, you can change the prices of your apps, In‑App Purchases, and auto‑renewable subscriptions at any time.

Apple is making changes to its business terms for apps in the European Union, following close collaboration with the European Commission.

The changes reduce complexity by moving every developer that distributes apps in the EU to a single set of business terms.

Members of the Apple Developer Program can review and agree to the updated terms today in the Apple Developer Program License Agreement.

Some key updates, which go into effect October 1, 2026, include:Adjusting commission rates across the App Store, alternative payments, and alternatively distributed apps.

Expanding the qualifications for developers to operate alternative app marketplaces and distribute their apps over the web.

Attachment 14 of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement has been added to specify updated terms for apps in the European Union, including alternative distribution, alternative payments, and business terms.

These terms will go into effect on October 1, 2026.

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.

Apple generates appropriate age ratings based on your answers to the age rating questionnaire in App Store Connect.

In compliance with local regulatory requirements, apps in the Games and Entertainment categories distributed on the App Store in Korea receive a region-specific age rating based on these answers.

We’re making two changes to age ratings in the Republic of Korea: one taking effect today and the other later this year.

First, starting today, if your app has received an official rating from the Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC), you can now override your app’s existing age rating for the App Store in Korea to any of the region-specific ratings (All, 12+, 15+, or 19+) …

As we announced in June, Apple is introducing new ways to market your apps and games on the App Store.

With these new assets, you can go beyond in-use visuals to highlight your brand, seasonal offerings, exciting new content, and more.

Your creative assets can be used across the App Store in multiple places, including your product page header, search results, In-App Events, and more.

To help you plan your images and videos ahead of the fall launch, review our new App Store asset best practices, which include recommendations, as well as Figma, Photoshop, and Pixelmator design templates you can use to create captivating and compelling assets.

Swift 6.4 is now available.

Read on for a detailed guide to the new changes, or see the Swift Evolution dashboard for the full list of proposals in Swift 6.4.

WebAssemblyJavaScriptKit has better performance when bridging to Wasm in Swift 6.4, with safe bridging up to 40 times faster than earlier dynamic bridging.

Get started with Swift 6.4Try out Swift 6.4 today by following the instructions on the Install Swift page, or download the new 6.4 toolchain with Swiftly.

The upcoming Swift 6.4 release will include changes, begun in Swift 6.3, that address this by updating how the Swift compiler references explicitly-built Swift modules in debug info.

In order to initialize a Swift compiler instance with the state of the current module, LLDB finds the name of the current function’s Swift module in debug info.

In Swift 6.3, explicitly-built binary Swift modules also keep track of their Swift module dependencies.

In Swift 6.3, the Swift compiler can store the path to it in the debug info.

Binary Swift modules in dSYM bundles: As a consequence, dsymutil will no longer process binary Swift modules.

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

I am the creator of the elementary-swift project, a collection of packages born from a simple wish: I want to build web UIs in Swift and ultimately help Swift become a first-class choice for the web.

Around that same time, years of community work in the swift-wasm project made compiling Swift to WebAssembly increasingly viable, while Embedded Swift was taking its first experimental steps.

It features Swift in the browser communicating with a Swift backend on an edge worker through shared message types.

Let’s work together and make Swift a first-class choice for the web!

Embedded Swift is a subset of Swift that’s designed for low resource usage, making it capable of running on constrained environments like microcontrollers.

While a subset of the full language, the vast majority of the Swift language works exactly the same in Embedded Swift.

Following our updates on Embedded Swift improvements in Swift 6.3 late last year, this post describes a number of additional improvements made in the upcoming Swift 6.4 release.

Language improvementsEmbedded Swift continues to expand its subset of the language to include more aspects of “full” Swift, making it easier than ever to bring compatibility with Embedded Swift to existing Swift code bases.

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.

A couple of weeks ago my new app launched with an icon designed by Iconfactory. Today that icon is on their website as the example of how their process works, and they shared my post about it with their audience. That gave my app more attention than anything I've managed to do myself. To be clear up front: marketing is not part of the deal. Nobody promised me anything, and I'm not affiliated with them. This was a very happy accident. But I didn't just sit back and wait for it either, so here's how it went. Some background I'm a full time developer and I build apps in my spare time. My latest is Hue Dashboard, a Philips Hue control app for iPhone and iPad. I can build pretty much anything I …

Hey everyone, hoping someone has been through this. I'm from Indonesia and I only have one legal name is just "Kuswanto", no surname. Pretty common here, but apparently not something Apple's enrollment flow loves. When I did the ID scan in the Apple Developer app, the OCR chopped my name into "KUS WANT G" 😅 which is now sitting there in the Full Name field looking very official and very wrong. I emailed Developer Support and they told me to enter my name as the first name and a period (.) as the last name. Which... okay, sure. But now I'm slightly paranoid about two things: Does the period show up anywhere public? Like in the seller name on the App Store. I really don't want to be "Kuswanto…

Hello, is there any information on the Retention Messaging in App Store Connect? I don't mean the API you have to apply for. Does anyone know whether Apple plans to ship this feature any time soon? Somewhere I saw this fall 2026 but it was probably a post about the API instead. Or do I have to apply for the API early access to also unlock the App Store Connect version without the endpoint? Or am I just overlooking that feature somewhere? submitted by /u/SociallyIneligible [link] [comments]

New to iOS, looking for ideas on how to manage versions of an app from Github & CI/CD as they flow through internal -> external -> production. Current approach: A workflow is manually run to "create a release". This creates a new tag with a semver based off of the conventional commits since the previous tag/release (eg. increment patch version for a fix:, minor version for a feat:) The release app configures the marketing version and build number to match the semver, is built and uploaded to TestFlight The build artifact is promoted from internal -> external -> production in TestFlight I heard that for TestFlight external builds, if you change the marketing version it requires the build goe…

Xcode 27.2 ships a JSON project format (.xcproj): default for new projects, readable, merge-friendly, agent-editable. submitted by /u/artemnovichkov [link] [comments]

From Apple's description, it's "more readable, merge-friendly, and easier for coding agents to edit. Enable it in the file inspector. Projects using .xcproj also open in earlier versions of Xcode 27." I tried it briefly, and it's half the size of the old property list format, and much simpler too. submitted by /u/twostraws [link] [comments]

I just wanted to give some unexpected kudos to Xcode cloud. At the start of the summer my MacBook Pro became out of action, and therefore I struggled to continue to develop using an older intel MacBook due to Xcode version restrictions. Tried building and releasing with GitHub macOS runners but wow they’re expensive and took ages to startup etc. then spotted Xcode cloud with 25 free hours a month, thinking this will keep me going for a few days. Since then I’ve found that it’s been absolutely brilliant. As an independent developer with a few apps and projects it’s been an absolute life saver. It’s fast. Beautifully integrated, and the 25 hours will last me a whole month without any worries.…

Issue 766 4th September 2026 Written by Andyy HopeG’day y’all!

Speaking of App Store, after 16 years building apps for other people, my very first app Yewki has finally launched.

Our Apple Foundation Models book shipped in July, with an in-depth course on using AI as a development tool coming this autumn.

The author of this repo claims that this tool enables compiling iOS apps on Windows and Linux systems.

I wouldn’t recommend uploading the build artefacts to App Store Connect though.

Issue 765 28th August 2026 Written by Alex OzunI keep in touch with many folks in Apple Developer Community who maintain fairly old iOS apps.

Most conventional iOS apps could safely ignore scenes and carry on with the UIApplicationDelegate + UIScreen.main combo, focusing only on full-screen experiences.

Well, we don’t know how successful the foldable iPhone is going to be, or to what extent iOS apps will be expected to support split/multi-screen experiences.

Whatever expectations are placed on iOS apps will be felt immediately.

M6 Mac mini now starts at $899, compared with the $699 launch price of M4 Mac mini, which was later bumped to $799.

That feels important because many people building iOS apps with AI agents seem to run into the same issue: performance, observability and scalability.

It doesn’t really think like a staff-level engineer.

Our Apple Foundation Models book shipped in July, with an in-depth course on using AI as a development tool coming this autumn.

I still remember myself learning about the protocol witness from pointfreeco snapshottesting library, an alternative way of using protocols.

Personally, I prefer SQLite over Core/SwiftData, largely because I want a shared language between my iOS and Android apps.

To celebrate, we’re continuing to offer an exclusive 25% discount code for iOS Dev Weekly readers.

But the more interesting part of the announcement was the controversy around the so-called ‘Restricted Mode’ discovered in the iOS 27 betas.

This feels like the right direction for code review when AI can generate code much faster than people can meaningfully review it.

If I’ve learned anything about Approachable Concurrency it’s that there can never be too many articles explaining Approachable Concurrency.

And as someone who hasn’t yet fully embraced Swift 6.2 and Approachable Concurrency, I find its conclusions reassuring.

Issue 760 24th July 2026 Written by Konstantinos NikoloutsosHello, iOS dev weekly subscribers 👋I have a habit of opening a project to make one small change and ending up thinking about the architecture around it.

Good architecture and good tooling have something in common: when they work, it’s hard to notice them.

Her post drives RenderPreview directly over JSON-RPC and turns Xcode into a rendering service for a SwiftUI preview gallery app she’s now building.

More than doubling the tool count is Apple saying something about where Xcode is headed.

Issue 758 10th July 2026 Written by Andyy HopeG’day, iOS Dev weekly subscribers.

I was looking back through my inbox to see how long I’ve been reading it, and the earliest issue I could find was Issue #97 from June 1, 2013.

🤯Anyway, a bit about myself… I’m an iOS engineer based in Melbourne, Australia.

It’s really a desktop Safari automation tool, but since iOS Safari uses the same WebKit engine, you can point it at your site with a mobile-sized viewport to catch layout/CSS issues before they hit an iPhone.

It can’t actually drive the Simulator or a real device though, so it’s more of a quick proxy check than true iOS testing.

Issue 757 3rd July 2026 Written by Alex OzunHello, iOS Dev Weekly readers 👋Since I’m a new face in your inbox, I’ll start this issue by introducing myself.

This week also showed that Apple has to adapt, too, though in a less welcome way: Apple hardware is getting more expensive as memory costs rise.

Issue 755 19th June 2026 Written by Zachary PowellI can’t think of a better time than around WWDC to be diving back into the world of Apple as a developer.

There is a huge flurry of fascinating blogs, code labs, and opinion pieces coming from all over the iOS developer community.

While these machines may have stopped getting official OS updates, it is the community that keeps this hardware alive.

Streaming live video via RTSP on iOS has always been a bit of a challenge since AVPlayer does not support it out of the box.

iPadOS 27.2 arrived in beta this week, and beyond adding the redesigned Health app, Apple has also brought over a recent Mac feature: a Siri popup when text is selected.

Siri AI is the tentpole addition to iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and companion releases.

But iPadOS 27.2 adds yet another option that’s borrowed directly from the Mac.

When you hover over the icon with your cursor, it expands to offer an ‘Ask Siri’ text box.

Addigy says its AI runs entirely inside Addigy’s own environment, and customer data is never sent to external frontier models.

With its new Intelligence Suite, Addigy is also shipping an MCP server that exposes its device management control plane to AI agents, with admin-set guardrails for every action the agent takes.

Addigy is including prebuilt compliance rules to help Apple IT admins see, monitor, control, and block AI tools across their Mac fleets.

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak – aka Woz – generally has a much lower profile than the company’s execs, but he does frequently speak at industry conferences and remains a much-loved figure among Apple fans.

Something I did not expect to see, however, was an official Woz merch store …Woz announced it on X.I’m also excited to launch my new merch.

A little Woz spirit, a little fun, and hopefully a few things bring a smile to your face.

Products available at launch include T-shirts, hoodies, mouse mats, mugs, and – for some reason – a bottle of Chardonnay.

This wine finishes with energy, and verve, just like Woz himself.

General Motors has revealed a CarPlay compromise on two truck models, as it seemingly continues something of a backtrack on its decision to withdraw support for the feature.

A new report indicates that the automaker is creating a truck-specific interface that includes CarPlay …GM first announced that it was ditching CarPlay in all future EVs back in 2023, employing a whole succession of frankly absurd explanations and justifications for the decision.

Many customers were understandably upset, with a significant number saying they would never buy another GM car while the policy was in place.

We recently saw the first crack in the company’s CarPlay ban in one of the company’s most expensive lu…

The Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 are all about what’s happening underneath.

I’m a big fan of the Vitals app on Apple Watch, and I’m glad to see Apple making meaningful improvements with the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4.

PerformanceThe Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 are both powered by Apple’s new S11 chip, which the company describes as its “most powerful wearable chip.”This is the first meaningfully new chip for the Apple Watch since the S9 debuted in the Apple Watch Series 9 in 2023.

In comparison to my Apple Watch Ultra 3, the Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 feel quicker when launching new apps, scrolling through menus, and d…

The first reviews of the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 are now available ahead of the devices launching this Friday, September 18.

Siri AI queries are faster on the Series 12 than my Ultra 3.

People will gripe that the Series 12 doesn't have multi-day battery and sticks to the Series 11's 24-hour battery estimate.

9to5Mac's Chance Miller on Apple Watch Ultra 4 battery life:In my testing, the Apple Watch Ultra 4 lives up to Apple's battery life claims.

There are some new case options and colors for the Series 12, such as Light Bronze aluminum and the return of ceramic in Pearl White and Night Blue.

Amazon today is taking $150 off two models of the M5 MacBook Air, and this time the deals are focused on 13-inch models.

These remain the best prices we've seen on the M5 MacBook Air in the wake of Apple's summertime price hikes.

When you click a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small payment, which helps us keep the site running.

Amazon has the 16GB/1TB 13-inch MacBook Air for $1,449.00, down from $1,599.00.

This one is available in all four colors on Amazon, and it's accompanied by the 24GB/1TB model for $150 off.

Apple released watchOS 27 on September 14, bringing a new Audio Intelligence feature set to its latest Apple Watch models, but as a result, owners of previous models are set to lose out doubly in the process.

It's a neat way of multitasking on your Apple Watch without tapping the display.

Apple has reserved the double-click action for when its new Live Rewind feature is activated later this year.

This is despite the fact that the new Live Rewind feature is hardware-bound to the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4.

Pre-orders for the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 are available now ahead of a Friday, September 18 launch.

Apple surprised us with the first beta of iOS 27.2 today instead of releasing an iOS 27.1 beta.

This beta includes Apple's revamped Health app, new languages for Siri AI, and a handful of other useful tweaks.

Revamped Health AppThe iOS 27.2 beta includes the redesigned Health app Apple showed off at its September iPhone event.

Siri AI Languages‌Siri‌ AI is available in French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish in the iOS 27.2 beta.

Apple TV AppApple extended Apple TV app profiles to the iPhone and iPad in iOS 27.2.

Apple executive chairman Tim Cook is expected to attend a White House state dinner for Chinese President Xi Jinping, reports Bloomberg.

Cook stepped down as Apple CEO and transitioned to executive chairman on September 1, with John Ternus taking over.

U.S. President Donald Trump invited Cook, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, among others.

Cook has attended multiple state dinners with Xi.

Earlier this year, Xi held a state dinner for Trump in Beijing where Cook was present, and in 2015, Cook was seated next to Xi at a state dinner then-President Barack Obama hosted.

With the iOS 27.2 beta, Apple is testing the new Health app that it previewed at its September iPhone event.

The app has been entirely overhauled, with new Insights and Longevity tabs that give you more information on your health and fitness metrics.

The Insights tab shows your most recent health data, such as Activity Rings, heart rate, sleep score, and vitals.

Getting the most out of the Health app requires an Apple Watch or another fitness device that integrates with it.

While the Health app is being tested in the iOS 27.2 beta, it won't be part of the iOS 27.2 release.

The iOS 27.2 beta that Apple released today adds a feature that reminds you it's your anniversary when you call someone, as long as you've added the date in the Contacts app.

iOS 27.2 adds anniversaries, but unfortunately, it doesn't come with a new animation.

The Call Context anniversary option draws from your Contacts app.

Tap "Edit" in the corner, then tap "add date," and the first suggestion under date is anniversary.

iOS 27.2 is in beta right now, and it is expected to launch in October.

Alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, which start at $1,199 and $1,299 respectively, there is now the iPhone Duo, Apple's first foldable iPhone, which starts at $1,999.

The camera system is the clearest reason to choose an ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ over the ‌iPhone Duo‌.

If photography or videography is a priority, choose the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌.

A 1TB ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max is only $100 cheaper than the entry-level ‌iPhone Duo‌, but that Duo has just 256GB of storage.

The ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max are available to pre-order now.

Apple Executive Chairman Tim Cook has already been called upon to attend a state dinner with US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on September 24.

Tim Cook stepped down from his CEO position on September 1 and took over as Executive Chairman and Apple government liaison.

Barely two weeks into his new position, Cook will be attending a state dinner at the White House.

The dinner with President Xi Jinping will likely involve discussions around AI regulations and competition between the rival countries when it takes place on September 24.

Perhaps Tim Cook could convince the AI leaders to stop the AI-driven RAM shortage and focus on utilizing the existing data centers to t…

The more demand AI companies have for HBM, the less manufacturing capability is reserved for consumer-grade products.

Mac Studio quickly exceeds $10k thanks to RAM pricesNo, you can't take the RAM built for data centers and cut it for smartphones.

Each of those companies is buying land, staking them out for future data centers, then pre-purchasing the RAM and other compute needed for the non-existent data centers.

The only way out of this is for all of the AI companies to take a more sensible approach to producing and distributing AI tools.

The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max increased the base model price by only $100.

While the iOS 27 update refined Apple's Liquid Glass aesthetic, the software also brought with it an apparent user interface bug.

Quickly toggling and switching between the Control Center and Notification Center can seemingly make devices unresponsive.

In essence, the bug needs to be triggered deliberately by quickly opening the Notification Center, then immediately activating the Control Center.

According to a Reddit post, the Notification Center bug was present in iOS 27 beta builds, including the Release Candidate version.

However, you may encounter the Notification Center bug again until Apple issues a software update.

Apple's redesigned Health app has already reached developers and testers with the first beta of iOS 27.2.

On Wednesday, following the full public release of iOS 27, Apple made iOS 27.2 beta 1 available to all compatible devices except the iPhone Duo.

Apple's redesigned Health app will work alongside the Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12, which include improved health sensing systems.

With Wednesday's iOS 27.2 developer beta, Apple has also improved Siri AI localization.

With a redesigned Health app, better language support for Siri AI, and dual capture now being available in group FaceTime calls, there's a lot to look forward to.

Following the launch of iOS 27, iPadOS 27, tvOS 27, and macOS 27, Apple has started the beta process again, but unexpectedly for the 27.2 versions.

The first developer builds of iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, macOS 27.2 Golden Gate, and tvOS 27.2 are now available for testing.

At the time of publication, builds for watchOS 27.2 and visionOS 27.2 have not yet been issued.

The first builds are:iOS 27.2 beta 1 is 24B5084k, replacing 24A435iPadOS 27.2 beta 1 is 24B5084k, replacing 24A435macOS 27.2 beta 1 is 26B5086k, replacing 6A5428tvOS 27.2 beta 1 is 24K5088l, replacing 24J360HomePod Software 27.2 beta 1The milestone releases brought with them many changes, including alterations to the UI, but chiefl…

Apple supplier SK Hynix allegedly wants to start producing memory on U.S. soil, and it's asking for help from Intel to make it happen.

The situation may result in the unusual move by SK Hynix to bring RAM manufacturing to an entirely new continent.

According to sources of Reuters on September 16, SK Hynix is in talks with processor maker Intel over plans to make memory in the United States.

The sources say that SK Hynix could potentially lease a section of Intel's planned Ohio facility.

There's also the prospect of SK Hynix creating a joint venture with Intel and AI companies that are consuming memory supplies on future production.

In Swift, the @MainActor attribute can be used to associate a given type, function, or value with the global main actor, which essentially makes any such code operate on the enclosing app’s main thread.

Just like concrete types, a Swift protocol can be fully isolated to the main actor, which means that all of its members (which in the case of a protocol are its list of requirements, and any extensions we’ve added) in turn also become main actor isolated.

But what if we’re looking to make an actual actor type conform to our ErrorPresenter protocol?

So does that mean that we should never fully associate any protocol with the main actor, and instead only annotate individual requirements …

It’s called Kickstart, and it has only one job: to help indie developers make more money on the App Store.

Kickstart helps with the rest.

Instead, the important part is that Kickstart helps turn all those disconnected responsibilities into clear, manageable next steps.

A lot of App Store tooling feels like it was built for growth hackers, agencies, or people trying to optimize funnels all day long.

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 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.

Bob and his wife were a kind, reserved older couple who decorated their home mostly with crucifixes and talked about Jesus a lot.

Van and his delightful wife passed away years ago, before I learned how either of them felt on any political issue.

If they were my neighbors today, how likely would that be?

Now you can simply drag to select the exact part you want, just like in any native text view.It took them until iOS 27… but I’ll happily take it.https://x.com/natpanferova/status/2070781569044996429?s=46&t=YNy4qFziI3PFPTlrSCXpmA#SwiftUI

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
