Hi , since I've been trying out this latest beta, my battery life has dropped dramatically. I have an iPhone 16 Pro. It doesn't last until the evening. I didn't have any problems with version 4 before. Thanks

Hey, my name is Kenari Curry and I am an aspiring developer who is currently a readmitted senior in college. I major in Exercise Science and want to take those skills merge it with Data Science to develop Health-AI applications that improve the Fitness of athletes (sports & tactical) and clinical patients. I have no experience in programming or data science So I am wondering if I can meet with an expert on how to approach my goal.

On the iOS 26 system, the left and right buttons on the page navigation bar have added some new features, such as animation effects when clicked and UI-level wrapping effects. However, I don’t want to use these features—what should I do? We initialize the buttons on the navigation bar like this: UIBarButtonItem *item = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:customView]; Doing this enables some of the system’s built-in features. How can I remove these features? P.S. We have noticed that the issue can be resolved by adding the "UIDesignRequiresCompatibility" key in Info.plist. However, this configuration may become invalid next year, so we do not intend to use this temporary workaround and prefer to make modifications at the code level instead.

Hi, How to post to App & System Services -> Wallet ? I'm getting "This post contains sensitive language. Please revise it in order to continue" blockage every time I try to submit. Thanks.

📢 Complaint: Severe “System Data” ballooning bug on iPad Pro M4 (iPadOS 17 → 18.6.2). “System Data” (formerly “Other”) grows abnormally from ~3 GB → 70–90 GB in just months. Deleting files, exporting PDFs, uninstalling apps, or clearing trash does not free space. The only “fix” Apple Support suggests is erase & restore — which works temporarily but always comes back within 1–3 months. 🔎 Problem Summary • Growth: 3 GB → 40 GB (1 month) → 58 GB (2 months) → 70 GB+ (3 months). • After erase: drops temporarily, then climbs again. • Multiple resets done — issue always returns. • Confirmed across users (see YouTube: ajXyDCLoLOA, cnOGeI8X-Fc). • Apple Support Case IDs filed (master: 102671138516). • Feedback Assistant report: FB19812484. 📝 Steps to Reproduce (consistent) 1. GoodNotes – Export/merge PDFs, sync large files → System Data grows even after clearing trash. 2. DocScanner (Lufick) – Import + delete scans → cache remains. 3. Apple Scan to PDF / Files – Scan 24 images, merge, delete originals → System Data increases 2–3× file size. 4. External drives (NTFS/exFAT) – Just plugging in causes spikes. 5. Photos Recycle Bin bug – Deleting files increases System Data. ⚠️ Impact • iPad becomes unusable every few months as storage fills. • GoodNotes syncs (30GB+) require full reinstall → takes >1 day. • Device has even frozen on Apple logo (Case: 102456432522). • Breaks productivity workflows: scanning, exporting, file transfers all trigger ballooning. ❌ Apple’s Responses So Far • Force restart → no effect. • Uninstall/reinstall apps → cache remains. • Format → temporary relief only. • “Stop using pen drive” → not a solution. • “Keep reporting” → no updates received. Translation: Apple provides no real tool to manage System Data. Users are stuck in endless erase/restore cycles. 🎯 Request to Apple 1. Add “Clear System Data / Clear Cache” option in Settings. 2. Fix caching bugs in GoodNotes, DocScanner, Scan to PDF, and Files. 3. Ensure deleted files + app data are actually purged. 4. Provide transparency: show what System Data contains (caches, logs, orphaned DBs). 5. Improve external storage handling — plugging in drives should not balloon space. 📌 Final Note This is not expected behavior. It’s a design flaw in iPadOS storage management. On macOS, users have visibility into caches and cleanup tools. On iPadOS, everything is hidden. Without proper cache controls, iPad Pro cannot be a reliable “Pro” device — only one that forces constant resets. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ACT4OtMrFQYciiJg6N4ENriMbnvAcNgc/view?usp=drivesdk

Hallo habt ihr das Probleme auch ? meine Apple Watch zeit glaub seit der 3 oder 4 beta keine VVR ticket mehr an in der wallet app Kreditkarten oder Ikea karte alles da nur keine vor karten mehr was vorher ging! habt ihr einen tipp ?? lg Cris

Through IOS 26 public beta 5, the “use as ringtone” option will freeze the Music app, which must be closed and restarted. Is this capability supposed to apply to songs in Apple Music or only for MP3 WMA music files in the files app? If it is only applicable to music files and not Apple Music, then it should not appear as an option in the share menu of an apple song. I have a 15 pro.

I've raised a support case with Apple. Is it possible to find my support case within the developer.apple.com website?

I have an Apple Watch Series 6 (Model: M00H3LL/A) that was working perfectly before I updated it to watchOS 26.0 beta on 21st August 2024. The update process completed smoothly while the watch was on the charger, but immediately after the update the display became extremely dim. It’s not completely black, but so faint that it’s very difficult to see. I’ve already tried setting the brightness to maximum and also enabled maximum brightness under Accessibility settings, but the issue remains. I also tried force restarting the watch (holding the Digital Crown and side button together), but that did not resolve the issue. I know this is not a hardware issue, since the problem appeared immediately after the update, and at times the display briefly returns to normal brightness for just a few milliseconds (like a flicker). My current watchOS version is 26.0 (23R5350a). Could you please advise on how I can fix this, or confirm if this is a known issue with the beta version? Thank you.

i am having problems done everything 18.5 connects but when i connect ios 26 it pick phone up but does nothing never had this problem before on any other beta

Hello, I switched to public version of iOS 26 few days ago, not because Im curios about new design and new look, the only and main reason was just to see if you fixed the most annoying problem that iPhone ever had, and yet you still did not fix it, which is sad, actually very sad! Since iOS 18 was released and iPhon 16 versions were released iOS on these phone was working worse then android phone that costs 200€ And its all caused because you tried to make some kind of intelligent refresh rate which makes no sense at all. You have 120hz panel and its not used in iOS at all, only when gaming and screen recording.Very sad. That kind of uselss intelligence is making phone very laggy and jittery in most of scrolling scenarios, 3rd party apps and apple apps as well. Im begging you, can you just let people choose to have it on auto or locked 120hz or locked 60hz, because using your lastest flagship is totally offending compared to how much it costs and how much it laggs. I know its lagg because of hardware problem, because when I switch to locked framerate laggs and jittery scrolling is gone. But I did not buy pro max version to be on 60hz. This problem exists for a long time and noone in apple is talking about it. Please can you fix it or give us a option to keep the screen at locked 120hz!

I was trying to watch hulu while on facetime and saw theres no way to change the screenshare/shareplay automatically like you can set it to on the other ios and not automatically shareplay hulu on ios 26 beta unless i just didnt see it.

Since adding the ios26 beta, I can no longer connect to iMessage using my phone number. It connects using email addresses but, when trying to connect to my phone number, it just gives me the buffering signal and never connects. I am on Beta 4 and still no joy. Help! I have become a green bubbler!!

How to set speed > 2.0 for HLS video with AVPlayer? I’m having an issue where the video has no sound when I change the speed to 2.1x or higher

I've tried for more than a week to join the Apple Developer Program without success but with super cryptic replies from Apple Developer Support. Looking to hear whether this has happened to others and how you resolved it. This has happened: Right after I submitted pictures of my driver's license I got the message "There may be an issue with your account that needs to be resolved before you can continue. Please contact support". No further information.. I contact support, they say my ID could not be verified, and does not give any further explanation, and not replying to my question whether I should provide another ID, like passport. Now that I try to click "Enroll", I automatically get the message "Your enrollment could not be completed" - AND my dad's name now appear as the account name! Even though I started from my personal Apple Account. I don't understand what is happening. Family sharing is not on. I'm just hitting a dead end of vague replies and silence from Support, and with no actual error messages on what is wrong I'm at a loss for what to do. Any tips or help is much appreciated.

Almost everytime, when I try to search apps in App library, the icons go invisible, o are showed for and instant to quickly go invisible.

Hi all, Recently, I received feedback from users that the cell of UITableView will be enlarged when clicked on the iOS26 system. After positioning, it was found that the iOS26 system has reset the frame of the contentView so that its width is always the screen width. The following Demo can reproduce this problem. Does anyone have this problem? Is there a solution? Thanks Run and click on the cell to see the problem http://www.yangshuang.net/TestProject.zip
