    The new OS 27 highlights tend to create the illusion of oval shapes instead of circles. Another design gate incoming?

  • Post #3571140

    I&#39;ve once again taken the time to write down my thoughts—this time on the Liquid Glass changes in Apple’s 2027 releases. Join me on a journey through the great, the good, and the curious. While macOS looks better than ever, iOS 27 feels like a significant step backwards, looking flatter than last year. I also dive into what HDR has to do with it and explore the other design changes Apple made. https://gamery.app/blog/liquid-glass/ #SwiftUI #UIKit #iOS #macOS #WWDC #Apple #Design #BuildInP...

    I wish we would have gotten this style of destructive buttons in alerts in the final version of iOS 26.

    So, it&amp;#39;s not just the Reminders app icon but also the App Store icon inside notifications that still was not updated to the current style. We&amp;#39;re at macOS 26.5, Apple!

    We are in 2026 and it&amp;#39;s still not possible to create a screen recording on macOS with system audio?

    So, how does this work? Is this not a massive security issue?

  • Post #3072583

    I hope you will be able to add the Siri Chatbot to an iMessage group with iOS 27.

    Liquid Glass really falls apart in outdoor use where the HDR edge highlights cannot fully work.

  • Post #3072581

    Gags like this are just not possible any more in Apple&amp;#39;s pre-recorded events setup.

    Will iPadOS 27 finally run with more than 35 FPS on iPad Pro again?

  • Post #3072579

    Why?? #SwiftUI It&amp;#39;s probably because one row is taller, but like, just do one style.

  • Post #3072578

    It&amp;#39;s a bit wild looking but it could work.

    RE: https://mastodon.online/@9to5Mac/116675100119282721 This is still a weird size for a foldable. I&amp;#39;ll wait until we have it in hand, but I thought two iPhone Airs merged together would have been perfect.

    The iPad cursor highlight in the status bar is moving in the incorrect direction when using an app. It works fine on the home screen. When you move the cursor horizontally, the highlight moves vertically.

    Accessibility, size-adjustable UIs and flexibility are all very important but I kind of miss the early iPhone days where you could build very intricate purpose-built UIs without needing to worry about this stuff.

    Some spring-cleaning in progress! #BuildInPublic #Swift

  • Post #827320

    Next step was letting #Codex go over the @gamery project and fix all upcoming compiler feature warnings, so I&amp;#39;m ready for Swift 6 now. Deleted a loooot of old code and made the app safer. Great.

  • Post #827319

    This system dialog gets worse and worse each day.

  • Post #827318

    Converted @gamery to Swift 6 language mode with 0 warnings. Cleaned out 12,000 lines of code. Made a lot of systems more robust. Fixed a ton of bugs. Added the ability to easily create a nice, varied, deterministic demo library. Great. This would have taken me weeks on my own. #Codex #BuildInPublic

    This is driving me crazy. When a view controller inside a UIStackView is constrained to any layout guide, it glitches out when doing the interactive back swipe gesture. Anyone has a clue how I can fix this? I swear this is new with iOS 26. #UIKit Some extra fun stuff: this works fine in landscape… https://gist.github.com/nicoreese/6d4e3eb08723b977ca726cda55156f89

    Pretty good as a first try. The prompt probably was not very descriptive and it got pretty close to the reference image. Still a nice starting point for new Sketch documents using #MCP and #Codex. Next I will try using it to localize App Store screenshot text labels.

  • Post #827314

    From the standpoint of feature parity a &amp;quot;super app&amp;quot; makes sense for #ChatGPT and #Codex. Skills and Automations are super useful outside of using the API itself and I would love to have them across services.

  • Post #827313

    Can&amp;#39;t wait until ChatGPT has something like Claude Cowork which can readily control your Mac to do anything. Same with deeper system integration. I want it to read/write my Calendar and Reminders.

  • Post #827312

    OpenAI really needs to streamline all of their offerings. Why are saved prompts available in Atlas but nowhere else? I have two workflows with Agent that I would like to use with prefilled variables. Can&amp;#39;t do that in regular ChatGPT. I want automations everywhere, not just in Codex. The web, desktop and mobile apps need feature parity. Codex on iPad when? There&amp;#39;s probably more stuff like this that are low-hanging fruit.

  • Post #827311

    There&amp;#39;s no system BackgroundStyle that abstracts the typical use case of a white box on systemGroupedBackground and a light gray box on a black background in dark mode, right (the way List does it for its rows)? My current solution is a custom ShapeStyle. #SwiftUI

  • Post #827310

    One thing that&amp;#39;s really annoying since the Agent integration in Xcode is that using the Coding Tools, like Document, do not work reliably. When a select a whole block of code it will only tell the agent to &amp;quot;Document ShapeStyle+Extension.swift on line 10&amp;quot; when I really wanted the entire thing.

    Why does this only work like 60% of the time? Any other good way to reset sandbox in-app purchase transactions during a Unit/UI test, so I can start with an unsubscribed state? #UIKit #SwiftUI #Swift #Testing

    A simple ScrollView(.horizontal). Why does the LazyHStack have an unnatural height, while the HStack works correctly. What am I missing? #SwiftUI
