Xcode 26.4 seems to require macOS 26.2 👀

💜 A year ago today we lost one of the kindest, most-generous developers in the Mac community, Martin Pilkington (pilky). He was known for and worked on many projects over the years, but Coppice was his labor of love. I have been working the past couple of months on rebuilding Coppice for macOS […]

This is how you provide access to older versions of your apps: https://www.rogueamoeba.com/legacy/ Supporting back to Mac OS X 10.2, congrats @RogueAmoeba 👏🏻

sigh. My app is an "Audio Unit". That is literally the entire point of it (and this is an update, it hasn't changed!!). Of course you need GarageBand (or another DAW to use it). It even says that on launch!! Same app compiled for macOS was approved with no issue

That's definitely something Google

Me: "Hey, so, Xcode, I know you can tell me when a modulemap has been modified and the prefix header needs to be rebuilt… but when I hit build, could you just do that? You know what to do, can you just do it? Instead of me dumping DerivedData?" Xcode: "How about AI ✨"

🙄

@mitchellh any opposition to exposing the previously rendered frame as iChannel1? Was going to start on this to allow for trailing cursors / text input / frame-blending as effects with shaders, but if you're not up for it (or have other plans for iChannel1) lmk!

Tailscale App Connectors are *so slick*. I can dynamically route traffic through specific exit nodes and all devices on my tailnet will follow this same set of rules :D

I'll have whatever Xcode is smoking this morning

RE: https://mastodon.social/@b3ll/115963039453240829 Solution? 1. Find slow method 2. Swizzle to do nothing 3. Profit and pray there's no bad side-effects

Xcode… you ok?

Massive amounts of text are causing UITextInteractionInputDelegate to lock up the whole app when selecting all text in a Catalyst app. Has anyone seen this before? AppKit does not suffer the same fate lol

Seems very safe

QuickLayout is actually really nice for doing UIKit work (ports SwiftUI's layout system as a compliment to layoutSubviews) I rewrote all the layout code in my synth app I'm working on as a test and it was a breeze… allowed me to throwaway all the "flexbox" stuff I had previously. No idea on […]

Nearly have my J_NO Chorus effect fully updated for iOS and macOS 26. Audio Unit v2 plugins are tricky to maintain 🫠

sure

RE: https://mastodon.social/@BasicAppleGuy/115888906340881425 This is definitely something

.@mitchellh's Ghostty has shader support and I'm having a blast (yes this is hilariously illegible, I'll settle somewhere with some fun bloom and maybe some ghosting)

I think my favourite feature of LLMs is how, when asked to fix a bug in a feature, their predicted solution is to simply delete the feature that has the bug ✨

Truly incredible the photos people will use for stories in Apple Stocks app

DigitalOcean decided to make it as painful as possible to downgrade a VPS to a smaller storage size (eventhough the OS would've easily fit!), so I dumped the whole thing and moved to Hetzner! Saved a bunch of money in the process too… I think they just started hosting in the US? Prices are […]

@FediTree hi

Man, Catalyst has so many things busted on macOS 26 (even 26.2). Toolbars just do not render correctly at all, even a simple SwiftUI app. Works fine in AppKit tho!

Free app idea!

This feature saves me *so* much pain. Thank you @RogueAmoeba https://mastodon.social/@RogueAmoeba/115663345484984179

Uh, this is on my iPhone Air. I do not have a new iPhone en route lol I also can’t hide this in settings either

Nearly finished my iOS 26 update for Albums! Sorry, it’s been a while, so many other life things going on 😅

Ai scream

Balenciaga’s got Vision Pro now

Always nice to have options

Why are the toolbar icons smushed? Why is the search bar the wrong colour? we just don't know

I have a UIKit Window with a UIHostingController compiling as a Catalyst app (Mac Optimized) with a SwiftUI view supplying toolbar items. No matter what I do, I can't get the top toolbar items to group (adopting Liquid Glass) or to not render as tiny little […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

“Everything in our store is 6 or 7 percent off”

fun! https://mastodon.world/@jordanhipwell/115510237732265188

`searchable` on macOS 26 in a Catalyst app results in a search bar that is 9/10 misaligned when used in a simple NavigationStack hierarchy… is there something I'm doing wrong here? Or did it just ship this way lol

👀

Didn’t know libraries had clown sections

With the Swift SDK for Android being released, I can now update my LinkedIn to note that I’m also a full time Android Engineer

:(

Anyone running Tahoe 26.1 betas? Are they worse than 26.0 lol

@stroughtonsmith's suggestion of using Group actually works! Can just group your tabs into Groups and it seems to work. I prefer having tabs in this Catalyst app without arbitrary sections https://mastodon.social/@b3ll/115407674012393420

Why does TabContentBuilder have a limit of 10 tabs :( I really do not want to write my own sidebar for Catalyst lol https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/tabcontentbuilder/buildblock(_:_:_:_:_:_:_:_:_:_:)

Sure

new icon?

Uh, Schwab… you ok?
