During the pairing process, both frameworks prompt the user to enter a pairing code. Is this step mandatory? What alternatives exist for devices or accessories that don't have a way to communicate a pairing code to the user (for example, devices or accessories without a display or voice capability)?

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 11:45:10 GMT minnow https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/806077 We use an embedded WKWebView for several screens in our app. Recently, we have been testing keyboard navigation via Full Keyboard Access in our apps. On IOS 18, everything works pretty much as expected. On IOS 26, it does not. On IOS 26, you can "tab" away from the webview and then never tab back to the webview for keyboard navigation. Is this a known issue? Are there workarounds for this issue that anyone is aware of?

I wanted to open a .sheet with .presentationDetents([.height(320)]) and having a couple of pickers and buttons inside. The problem is that I can't tab with keyboard between the elements inside if I use .presentationDetents([.height(320)]) on the root VStack inside of the .sheet. It works perfectly if I remove it but then the sheet becomes fullscreen which I don't want. Is this a bug or am I using it incorrectly?
