Apple Seeds First Betas of iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 to Developers

If you have just spent the last 30 mins trying to find how to enable Stage Manager on iPadOS 16, it’s in control centre. Not in the settings app lol.
 
iOS 16 beta/IPadOS 16 beta (20A5283p)

Accessibility​

Known Issues​

  • The pointer won’t behave correctly on the external display if the Assistive Touch accessibility feature is enabled. (92302190)
    Workaround: Disable it while using an external display.
  • Users can experience slow animations when using Zoom after leaving the Magnifier app. (93867848)
    Workaround: Users can close the Magnifier app in App Switcher.

Airplay​

Known Issues​

  • Streaming of photos and videos to Apple TV or an AirPlay 2-enabled smart TV doesn’t work if initiated from the Photos app. (93785527)
    Workaround: Use Screen Mirroring in the Control Center.

App Intents​

Known Issues​

  • When returning results from the perform() method, the .result() method and the ReturnsValue, ProvidesDialog, ShowsSnippetView, and OpensIntent protocols aren’t available. (93300630)
    Workaround: Use the .finished() method and PerformResult as the return type for perform().
  • When SF symbols are used in a DisplayRepresentation, the symbols can appear blurry when rendered in Shortcuts and Focus Filters. (89722491)
  • The EntityPropertyQuery QueryProperties key paths require you to specify the entity type name and don’t support prefixing with $. (93793810)
    Workaround: Specify QueryProperties like Property(keyPath: \SomeEntity.name), instead of Property(keyPath: \.$name).
  • The LocalizedStringResource interpolated parameters can appear as %@ in Shortcuts and Focus Filters. (93520037)
    Workaround: Use the LocalizedStringResource(stringLiteral: _) initializer; for example, replace title "\(name)" with LocalizedStringResource(stringLiteral: "\(name)").
  • Snippets and other SwiftUI features of App Intents don’t build with Mac Catalyst. (93373847)
    Workaround: Use #if #available() to disable building these features with Mac Catalyst.
  • Focus Filters can’t be deleted if the underlying app intent is renamed. (94235463)
    Workaround: Delete Focus Filters prior to renaming app intents.
  • You can’t define entity properties that are entities themselves because the @Property wrapper doesn’t support AppEntity types. (94289141)

App Store​

New Features​

  • AppTransaction allows developers to cryptographically verify that the app was purchased on the App Store. (86739279)
  • A property environment is included in Product.SubscriptionInfo.RenewalInfo and Transaction. It represents the server environment in which the RenewalInfo and Transaction occurred, respectively. (85988753)
  • The recentSubscriptionStartDate property is included in Product.SubscriptionInfo.RenewalInfo. It represents the date that marks the start of the most recent period of continuous subscription. A period is considered a continuous subscription if there’s no more than a 60-day gap between any two subscribed periods. (86599570)
  • The priceLocale property is included in Product. Use this property to format price values deriving from the product’s decimal price. (81480683)
  • Present the offer code redemption sheet with the offerCodeRedemption(isPresented:eek:nCompletion:)view modifier in your SwiftUI apps. (85321941)
  • The StoreKit Messages API allows you to control when App Store messages are displayed in your app. (85321880)
  • Read the requestReview environment value to get an instance of a RequestReviewAction. Then, call this instance to request to display a review prompt from your SwiftUI apps. (86739003)

App Tracking Transparency​

Known Issues​

  • The IDFA isn’t provided to apps even if the App Tracking Transparency status is Authorized. (93978371)

Apple ID Authentication​

Known Issues​

  • In certain cases, such as after unlocking a device from Lost Mode, an Apple ID authentication might be blocked and Apple ID services rendered nonfunctional. The user is redirected to Apple ID Settings to perform an authentication, but no authentication request is ever visible to the user. (93980441)
    Workaround: Rebooting the device allows the authentication to proceed.

ARKit​

Known Issues​

  • ARBodyTracking fails to detect persons on devices with an A14 or A15 chip. (93852787)
    Workaround: Use a device with an A12 or A13 chip.

AVRouting​

Known Issues​

  • Simulator and Mac Catalyst should be explicitly excluded from developer compilation. (93950572)

Backup​

Known Issues​

  • When the user restores from an iCloud Backup, the restore can fail repeatedly in Setup Assistant if the device restarts while there’s an in-progress restore from an iCloud Backup happening in Setup Assistant. (93466172)
    Workaround: Set up the device as new, use Erase All Contents and Settings, and then try to restore from an iCloud Backup again.

Clock​

Known Issues​

  • Deleting Clock inadverently deletes Sleep Alarm. (92421164)
    Workaround: Re-enable Sleep Alarm in Health.

CloudKit​

Known Issues​

  • If a collaborative app isn’t installed, the app user won’t get a prompt to download and install it. (92980177)

DeviceDiscoveryExtension​

Known Issues​

  • There’s an intermittent issue with Bonjour discovery when connected to the network using Wi-Fi. (94134116)
    Workaround: Power cycle the Wi-Fi prior to running your DeviceDiscoveryExtension tests, or disable the Wi-Fi and use Ethernet with a USB-C or Lightning adapter.

DeviceDiscoveryUI​

Known Issues​

New Features​

  • Many additional Bluetooth and USB game controllers are supported by the Game Controller framework on macOS 13, iOS 16, and tvOS 16 and later. (82409809)

Hang Detection​

Known Issues​

  • Notifications don’t appear once hang logs are available for viewing in Developer Settings. (93401353)
  • Hang logs stop being generated when a daily limit is reached. (92889082)

HealthKit​

New Features​

  • The HealthKit framework has a new Vision Prescription data type that allows developers and users to store prescription information received from eye care professionals. This feature includes a new set of HKSamplesubclasses that allow developers to encapsulate prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses. Users of iPhone can directly store their prescription information from the Health app as well. Because most regions require the actual prescription document to purchase glasses and contacts, this feature also allows the storage of attachment files in HealthKit. Due to the potential privacy concerns around sharing unintended additional details from the prescription, the HealthKit framework has a new authorization API to allow users to authorize prescriptions on a per-sample basis. See header documentation in HealthKit and watch the WWDC HealthKit session for more information. (82940646)

Known Issues​

  • Vision prescription attachments aren’t readable when restored from iCloud. (92495851)
    Workaround: Sign out of iCloud with the option to delete all local health data, and sign back in again.
  • New medication data shared via Health Sharing might not appear on the receiver’s device. (93208762)

Known Issues​

  • The device that initiates the pairing needs to use the same iCloud account as the home hub. Only the owner of a home, not an invited user, can pair Matter accessories. (76012945)
  • Home Automations won’t convert to Shortcuts on macOS, as normally expected. (93748027)
    Workaround: Use iOS to convert Home Automations to Shortcuts.
  • If Automatic Updates for HomePod is turned off and four or more HomePods have a Software Update available, Home might quit unexpectedly on launch. (93896543)
    Workaround: Use an earlier version of iOS to enable Automatic Updates for HomePod.

Home Screen​

Known Issues​

  • On an external display, the status bar is missing after entering the app switcher. (93211110)
    Workaround: Disconnect and reconnect the display to restore the status bar.
  • Apps that use UIRequiresFullScreen and only support portrait orientation won’t display correctly on external displays. (92752442)
  • Timers won’t appear on the iPad Lock Screen. (93508904)
  • The camera and microphone indicators don’t appear when in a full-screen app and in the More Space display mode. (93761086)
  • A preview might not appear during the drag and drop of widgets, while editing a Lock Screen. (93029743)
  • The App Library can fail to appear immediately after a reboot. (90354353)
    Workaround: Dismiss the App Library and try again after a few minutes.
  • Lock Screen widgets aren’t displayed correctly on smaller displays when in Zoom mode. (93930880)
  • Full-screen windows with key focus can’t be resized. (93872355)
    Workaround: First dismiss the keyboard, or tap outside of the text field, to relinquish keyboard focus.

iCloud​

Known Issues​

  • After purchasing a new custom domain, it might not appear in the domain list. (94008426)
    Workaround: After your purchase is completed, wait up to 5 minutes, and navigate to the Domain list. The new domain appears correctly configured.
  • Sharing a custom email domain with members outside your family might result in your own email address not appearing during setup. (93271837)
    Workaround: Add other members first, then add your own address.
  • After purchasing a new domain and creating a custom email address, you might be offered to purchase the domain again. (93820872)
    Workaround: Tap Not Now if offered to purchase again.

Location Services​

Known Issues​

  • The Location Services icon won’t display if the Status Bar Icon is toggled on in Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > System Services. (94122277)

Mail​

New Features​

  • Remind Me messages that have fired won’t show at the top of the message list until the message list is refreshed. (94046413)

Known issues​

  • When searching for words that contain diacritics, suggestions for some languages might display apostrophes instead of accented characters. (92679833)
  • After updating to iOS & iPadOS 16 beta, it might take 24 hours or longer until search features function as expected. (61137313)
  • Searching for “me” doesn’t show suggestions for yourself or your “me” card. (93228606)
    Workaround: Search for your email address instead.
  • Pasting text into the search field and searching via Search Mail for Contact on a contact card doesn’t work in languages other than English. (93613150)
  • The High Priority Mail search suggestion isn’t available. (93266352)
  • Mail Search doesn’t offer many temporal suggestions. (93109504)
    Workaround: Type the full temporal suggestion, such as Last Week.
  • Send Later always offers Send Now, Send Tonight, Send Tomorrow Night, and Send Later (custom option), without the refinement to have more awareness of the current time. (86647273)
  • Remind Me messages might not show at the top of the message list until the message list is refreshed. (94046413)
  • Until indexing has finished and has extracted Rich Links and Documents, the Zero Keyword state can show “No Results Found”. (88721787)
  • Moving a Remind Me message to another mailbox doesn’t remove the Remind Me banner. (93671992)
  • Top Hits from All Mailboxes continue to show after selecting Current Mailbox. (93136581)
    Workaround: Redo the search with Current Mailbox selected.

Maps​

Known issues​

  • If a user long presses on the Add Stop field in route planning, Maps quits unexpectedly. (93206703)
  • Don’t use MKMapLandscape, MKStandardMapConfiguration.MapMode, configuration, and showsBuildings. Use their functional equivalents MKMapElevationStyle, MKStandardMapConfiguration.EmphasisStyle, and preferredConfiguration, instead. Additionally, showsBuildings is now deprecated. (93449747)
  • Explanatory text regarding user credit for photos submitted to the Apple Ratings & Photos might erroneously show up in Settings within Maps, even when that feature isn’t enabled or available. (93359446)
  • Share ETA isn’t sent as expected to SMS recipients. (92806604)
  • The Resume Route option under Siri Suggestions in Maps Home disappears after pausing a multistop trip. (91789671)
    Workaround: Go to Recents to find a copy of the saved trip, or re-create the remaining portion of the trip manually.
  • While Maps is navigating, waking the device from the Lock Screen or ending navigation can cause Maps to quit unexpectedly. (92367898)
    Workaround: Restart Maps and the trip resumes.

Messages​

Known Issues​

  • When attempting to reply to an existing thread of replies, the replies might scroll to an incorrect position. (90407282)

Metal​

Known Issues​

  • When using the new Metal mesh shaders feature, render pipeline state objects (PSOs) created with a mesh shader stage but without a object shader stage can fail to compile or fail to work correctly on some devices. (89836551)
    Workaround: When creating render PSOs with a mesh shader stage, also include a (potentially trivial pass-through) object shader stage.
  • The MTLResource.gpuHandle is deprecated. (92862429)
    Workaround: Use gpuResourceID instead, which functions as a replacement.

Metal Offline Compiler​

Known Issues​

  • AppStore TestFlight distribution of apps with Metal Offline Compiler GPU binaries fails and results in validation errors. (93124006)
    Workaround: Certain preview test clients with source access might build the app project locally.
  • Adding a pipeline descriptor that uses MTLLinkedFunctions to a MTLBinaryArchive is unsupported and has undefined runtime behavior. (90776424)
    Workaround: Limit use of MTLLinkedFunctions to PSO creation APIs instead of the Metal Binary Archive API.
  • When using Metal mesh shaders on a device with Apple silicon, object or mesh shaders producing large amounts of output data can result in incorrect rendering and device instability. (93797539)
    Workaround:Try reducing the object and mesh output data with the following actions:
    • Decrease the object dispatch grid size.
    • Decrease the object shader [[payload]] attribute size.
    • Decrease the number of generated mesh threadgroups.
    • Decrease the size of the metal::mesh object.
    • Alternatively, try splitting the drawMesh call into a series of smaller drawMesh calls (smaller object grids), spread over multiple render encoders.
  • When using Metal mesh shaders on a device with Apple silicon, vertex buffers set at indices 29 or 30 can become unset after calling any of these methods: drawMeshThreadgroups, drawMeshThreads, drawMeshThreadgroupsWithIndirectBuffer. (93797408)
    Workaround: Reset the vertex buffers at indices 29 or 30 after issuing drawMesh calls if needed by subsequent drawPrimitive calls.
  • When using Metal mesh shaders on a device with Apple silicon, graphics corruption can occur when emitting a metal::mesh with a large number of primitives and using the viewport_array_index, render_target_array_index, or primitive_culled per-primitive attributes. (93797184)
    Workaround: Emit 170 or fewer primitives per mesh shader threadgroup when using the viewport_array_index, render_target_array_index, or primitive_culled per-primitive attributes.
  • The names of classes in MetalFX headers don’t match WWDC session. (93712694)
    Workaround: Use the names in header files and docs.
  • MetalFX effect outputs aren’t designed to be consumed by the CPU. Outputting to a texture that is read only by the CPU might result in synchronization issues. (91515075)
    Workaround: If a CPU reading of the MetalFX output is desired, instead of encoding the MetalFX effect as the last item in a command buffer, encode a dummy blit that consumes the MetalFX output texture (a 1-pixel region blit is fine) in the command buffer. After the command buffer with the dummy blit is finished, reading of the MetalFX effect output texture with CPU synchronizes correctly.
  • MFXTemporalScalingEffect currently only supports an input resolution of ≥ 1280 x 720 and an output resolution of exactly 2x. Creating MFXTemporalScalingEffect with other attibutes returns nil for the object creation. (92913479)
  • The MFXTemporalScalingEffect class quits unexpectedly on creation when using an iPad with an M1 chip. (93278732)
    Workaround: Use macOS to test MFXTemporalScalingEffect.

Photos​

Known Issues​

  • The Photos background processing can crash, preventing some Photos features from being generated. (93307639)

Proximity​

Known Issues​

  • Precision Finding can fail to connect when near many Bluetooth devices. (90846440)
    Workaround: Toggle Bluetooth off and then on.
  • The NIAlgorithmConvergenceState status property is .notConverged and the NINearbyObject verticalDirectionEstimate property is .unknown, unless the two devices are within 1 meter of each other. (92987182)
    Workaround: Move devices within 1 meter of each other.

RoomPlan​

New Features​

  • The RoomPlan framework is now available in iOS & iPadOS 16, enabling 3D parametric model creation of an interior room. The framework uses a device’s sensors, trained machine learning models, and RealityKit rendering capabilities to capture the physical surroundings of an interior room. APIs are available for end-to-end scanning experience, real-time data structures for custom UI creation, and both USD and USDZ generation of 3D room models. (84170837)

Known Issues​

  • The scale of exported USD models is off by factor of 100. (89171270)
  • RoomCaptureView stubs aren’t included in Simulator version. (87738618)

Safari​

Known Issues​

  • Reordering a Shared Tab Group by one user reorders that Tab Group for every user in the share. (88779674)
  • Articles added to the Reading List from the share sheet might not be added as expected. (93457227)

SharePlay​

Known Issues​

Share Sheet​

Known Issues​

  • Share Sheet can hang for several seconds when presenting from SharePlay-enabled applications. (93689970)

Shortcuts​

Known Issues​

  • App-produced AppIntents strings might appear unlocalized in the Shortcuts app. (93520037)
    Workaround: Use the LocalizedStringResource(stringLiteral: _) initializer.

Siri​

Known Issues​

  • When using the TV Remote app or the TV Remote Control Center widget, using side or home button for Siri on iPhone might stop working. (94008258)
    Workaround: Reboot the iPhone.
  • With Spoken Responses set to Always, Siri can incorrectly respond silently or with succinct dialog instead of verbose dialog. This typically occurs when using Hey Siri or headphones. (92625281)

Stage Manager​

Known Issues​

  • Stage Manager content might not display correctly when using resolutions lower than 4K. (91981726)

Stocks​

Known Issues​

  • The Stocks watchlist widget incorrectly shows Watchlist Deleted, but the watchlist is present in the app. (93070133)
    Workaround: Remove and re-add the widget.

StoreKit​

New Features​

  • All StoreKit APIs are now annotated for sendability and main actor isolation. (84157048)

Swift​

Known Issues​

  • Network.framework resolved an issue that could cause NWBrowser, NWConnection, NWConnectionGroup, NWEthernetChannel, NWListener, and NWPathMonitor to trigger a retain cycle when various Handler blocks are set. Starting with macOS 13, iOS 16, watchOS 9, and tvOS 16, if software using Network.framework targets these releases as the minimum OS, the object releases any blocks they captured once cancelled, breaking the retain cycle. (89677097)
    Workaround: For software targeting older versions, the retain cycle can be broken by setting the handler blocks to nil after canceling the object.
  • App Intents might fail when they’re compiled in a Release build. (93668260)
    Workaround: Mark the type conforming to AppIntent as public.

SwiftUI​

New Features​

  • You can now place a TextField in an Alert by using alert modifiers that accept a ViewBuilder. (64819930)
  • For control, Section, or other views that have a Label, the ViewBuilder content now automatically arranges and styles multiple views as hierarchical elements, such as title and subtitle. If the label views are intended to be arranged horizontally rather than hierarchically, wrap the views within an HStack. (85184563)
  • A TextField supports multiline text. Use a Axis.vertical axis on a text field to allow rendering of multiple lines in contexts like forms, where text is expected to be short to medium length. For long-form text editing, continue to use a TextEditor. (51463718)
  • Navigation bars have new default behaviors. A navigation bar defaults to an inline title display mode, if no title is provided. If a title is provided, the default remains large. Use the navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(_:)modifier to change this. By default, a navigation bar only renders if it has content to display. If a navigation bar has no title, toolbar items, or search content, it’s automatically hidden. Use the navigationBarHidden(_:) or the new .toolbar(.visible) modifier to explicitly show an empty navigation bar. (84996257)
  • A list supports Section footers. (78462739)
  • When the toolbar modifier is applied at multiple levels of a hierarchy, items from a child are appended to those from the parent that have the same placement. (65619097)
  • When using .windowResizability(.contentSize), windows created with SwiftUI set their resizable and fullscreen flags based on the size of their contents. (65791490)
  • List separator insets can now be customized using HorizontalEdge.leading and HorizontalEdge.trailing alignment guides. (74192080)
  • The implementation of list no longer uses UITableView. (81571203)
  • SwiftUI now enforces at runtime that view and view controller representables are value types. (82982458)
  • Symbol images now use an automatically determined symbol-rendering mode by default. To have a symbol image always use monochrome rendering, use the SymbolRenderingMode modifier. (85524479)
  • A Picker with a menu style in a list displays its label by default. To hide the label, use the labelsHidden()modifier. (88228016)
  • Pickers in list default to the menu style. (89186618)
  • Changes to text and image views now animate by default. Use .contentsTransition(.identity) to disable this behavior. (89558882)
  • Lists and forms automatically dismiss the software keyboard, if present, when a scroll gesture begins. Use .scrollDismissesKeyboard(.never) to restore the old behavior. (89588639)

Resolved Issues​

  • Fixed: Using @Environment(\.dismiss) no longer causes a view to be invalidated when the Environment changes. (86771246)
  • Fixed: The prompt parameter of TextFields now respects attached foregroundColor modifiers. For example: TextField("Label", text: $text, prompt: Text("Prompt").foregroundColor(.red))(52790227)

Known Issues​

  • SwiftUI views log to the console [UIFocus] <typename> implements focusItemsInRect: - caching for linear focus movement is limited as long as this view is on screen. (93428139)
  • Passing multiple children to a custom Layout fails to compile. (92914226)
  • Pickers might appear empty and fail to update when the initial selection is bound to a value that doesn’t correspond to a tag. (92282222)
  • Subitems in an OutlineGroup can display the layout incorrectly. (93248032)
  • A view-based NavigationLink in a List fails to update the visible selection of the list. (92193873)
  • Lists and tables might not clear their selection when exiting Edit Mode. (94093589)
  • Table headers on iPad might have an incorrect appearance. (92933472)
    Workaround: Wrap the table rows in a Section.
  • SwiftUI might incorrectly modify the isNavigationBarHidden property on UINavigationControllers not created by SwitftUI. (92908198)
  • Conditional views in columns of NavigationSplitView fail to update on some state changes. (91311311)
    Workaround: Wrap the contents of the column in a ZStack.
  • Selection-driven, three-column NavigationSplitView sometimes fails to push when collapsed to a single column. (93673059)

Telephony​

Known Issues​

  • A single SIM device shows two lines under Settings > Cellular > Cellular Plans when the device has only one SIM. (93678756)
  • An iPad with cellular service doesn’t activate over cellular during initial setup flow, after an erase install, or when the user performs Erase All Content and Settings from Settings > General. (93295742)

Translation​

Known Issues​

  • The quick action for translation is limited to Photos and Camera. Support for this quick action within Quick Look and Screenshots isn’t currently available. (93429519)

UIKit​

Known Issues​

  • Attempting to set an orientation on UIDevice via setValue:forKey: isn’t supported and no longer works. (93367651)
  • Keyboard shortcuts that are performable, but not discoverable in the keyboard shortcut menu (such as an empty title), aren’t performable while the keyboard shortcut menu is present. (93858278)
  • Scrolling vertically in the Wallpaper gallery can sometimes fail. (93361069)
    Workaround: Initiate touch on the Wallpaper title area.
  • Swift apps that reference UIContextMenuConfiguration and are compiled with the iOS 16 beta SDK crash on launch when run on a device running an older build. (93505538)
  • The overflow menu won’t appear due to center items unless a customization identifier is set. (91628998)

Voicemail​

Known Issues​

  • Voicemail transcriptions aren’t available. (93907701)

Voice Shortcuts​

Known Issues​

  • When asking Siri an App Shortcut phrase and the App Shortcut requires parameter confirmation, Siri responds with an error if the parameter isn’t a String or Integer. (93267551)
    Workaround: When writing your App Shortcut implementation, only request confirmation on String or Integerparameters. Don’t request confirmation on non-Codable or scalar parameters.

Wallet​

Known Issues​

  • Automatic Payments are only supported on Visa and Discover payment networks. Mastercard and Amex aren’t currently supported. (93337069)
  • Users who’ve disabled security settings on their Mac might not be able to add new cards to Apple Pay or use their existing cards. (91082752)
    Workaround: Read and follow these instructions in If Apple Pay on your Mac is turned off because security settings were modified.

Wallpapers​

Known Issues​

  • You must be authenticated to switch Lock Screens on all devices. (92643569)
  • Home Screen previews might show black when Reduced Motion is enabled. (91926028)
  • Selecting complete black or white in the color picker for the color picker doesn’t actually select black or white. (93447599)

Weather​

Known Issues​

  • Weather doesn’t have any indication when location or network is disabled. (88830148)

Wi-Fi​

Known Issues​

  • iPhone might stop communicating with HomePod or Home Services. To restore the connection, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and toggle Wi-Fi off and then on. (93773320)
 
Has anyone tried the new dictation features? I’m just wondering if they improved you overall quality dictation? It’s the number one feature that I’m hoping they’ve upgraded to make it more accurate.
 
Can anyone confirm before iOS 16 that Voice 5 for American existed for Siri? I never noticed it before if it did exist. It sounds like a non-binary voice.

Oh wow, so I can run iPadOS 16 on my 2018 6th-gen iPad with Wi-Fi and 128 GB storage. Nice.
 
I tend to find that beta 1 is normally ok it’s usually the 3rd beta I have problems with. When the proper new features start to get implemented.

Interesting that the iPad 5th and 6th generations with A9 and A10 chips stuck around while the iPhone 6s and 7 with the same chips and amount of RAM were dropped.
Click to expand...
Probably because iPad OS has fewer features and may therefor be less system intensive to run. Which is something I wish they would do for older devices anyway -- put out the latest version of the OS but streamlined, perhaps with fewer features, to actually function properly on an older device rather than turning it into molasses, while the newer devices get the full iOS release.
 
After updating to IOS beta 1 I lost all my text replacements over 200! I’ve read online to try all the tricks to force it to redownload them but nothing has worked. Does anyone have an idea how to get those text replacement’s to load back into my phone?

Sorry mine are working! However, whenever they have glitched in the past, I have opened keyboard preferences on every machine.
