I'm facing an issue with Swift Playgrounds and files created in Xcode 16. It seems that Swift Playgrounds does not support Swift 6, but even when I create files specifically with Swift 5, Swift Playgrounds still reports that the files are unsupported. This creates a significant problem because macOS Sequoia does not allow me to revert to Xcode 15, which might have offered better compatibility. As it stands, I can't find a solution to work seamlessly between Xcode and Swift Playgrounds. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any workarounds or updates planned to address this compatibility gap? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I am preparing for Swift Student Challenge, but it seems like the iPad Playground app still not support the latest SDK. I can't use frameworks like FoundationModel, etc., directly in playground app My playground for this year would require iPad environment since it uses PencilKit, ARKit, etc., and I also want to use the latest tech + the liquid glass UI Right now, I develop the project as a normal Xcode project, and I am wondering how do I post it? As Xcode playground, it must run on macOS As Swift Playground project, the iPad version of Playground does not support latest APIs and it can't compile

Hello, I am having a recurring issue using Swift Playgrounds version 4.6.4 on macOS 26.1. Upon opening a file and every other time I start typing in the code section I get a prompt, the image below, two or three times. It doesn't matter if I accept or decline all or some of the prompts, as soon as I start typing on another line I get prompted another two or three times for permission. It appears to me that prompt generates every time the preview pane tries to update. Declining the prompt breaks the preview but accepting the prompt only gets you through a single line of code before it appears again. I believe this issue started after I updated to macOS26.1 as I had not encountered it before. I've also opened other files with Swift Playgrounds and encounter the same problem. It could also be unrelated to the update and could be an issue with some permission setting somewhere, however, I have been unable to find what or where it could be. Is anyone else experiencing this? Thank you for your time :)

I'm building an app which runs around the Foundation model framework. My expected output is generated when testing on a real device or in preview in Xcode but it throws Foundation Model error when I try running it on the simulator. I'm using a Macbook M1 air and have apple intelligence turned on and my simulator run destination is also an iPad Pro M5 (26.0). Any solution for this as this is my submission for the SSC so I need to make it work on the simulator iPad. Thank you👾

Hello All, I am currently working through ”Keep going with Apps” in Swift Playground. The section in the tutorial “Add a DancingCreature view” will not complete. I have tried to type it is as written in the tutorial and even used the copy and paste button provided. I have restarted the app and my IPad with no success. I have attached a screen shot of the tutorial prompt. Here is the code block: import SwiftUI import Guide struct DancingCreatures: View { //#-learning-code-snippet(varDeclaration) @EnvironmentObject var data : CreatureZoo var body: some View { SPCAssessableGroup(view: self) { VStack { ZStack { /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.forEach)*/ ForEach(data.creatures) { creature in /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.forEach)*/ /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.textView)*/ Text(creature.emoji) .resizableFont() .offset(creature.offset) .rotationEffect(creature.rotation) /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.textView)*/ } } ZStack { /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.forEach)*/ ForEach(data.creatures) { creature in /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.forEach)*/ /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.textView)*/ Text(creature.emoji) .resizableFont() .offset(creature.offset) .rotationEffect(creature.rotation) /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.textView)*/ //#-learning-code-snippet(exp1) //#-learning-code-snippet(animationSolution) //#-learning-code-snippet(exp3) } } /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.onTap)*/ .onTapGesture { data.randomizeOffsets() } /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.onTap)*/ /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.onTap)*/ .onTapGesture { data.randomizeOffsets() } /*#-code-walkthrough(dance.onTap)*/ } } } } struct DancingCreatures_Previews: PreviewProvider { static var previews: some View { DancingCreatures().environmentObject(CreatureZoo()) } } Device information: IPad Pro (11 inch, 2nd gen) iPad OS Version: 26.0.1 Playground Version: 4.6.4 Anyone else come across this? Thank you in advance.

There is a week left for end of the Swift Student Challange submissions. I've built an app which uses FoundationModels but unfortunately there is no support for it in the Swift Playground. Is there any chance it might be coming up in the following days?

Hello. I'm building my Swift Student Challenge Project. But I noticed that the FoundationModels Framework isn't supported in Swift Playgrounds. My app uses ARKit, so it definitely should be tested on real device. So, is it possible to somehow implement a foundation models to my Swift Playgrounds app? Or is it possible to ask judges to test the app on real device launching it from xcode. Your answer is really important for because the functionality of my app directly depends on Foundation Models availability. Thank you!

I'm trying the "Connect and Solve" course of Swift Playground. I can't use "world.place" to place bricks at positions (2, 2), (6, 2) (automatically disappear), but I can place bricks at positions (4, 2) in the same way. Two bricks must be placed overlapping in positions (2, 2) and (6, 2) to achieve the goal. Only when a brick is placed in position (4, 2) can the goal be achieved. The problem is that the bricks placed on (6, 2) and (2, 2) will disappear and cannot be placed successfully. The following is my code writing... let Block1 = Block() for i in 1 ... 2 { world.place(Block1, atColumn: 2, row: 2) } for i in 1 ... 2 { world.place(Block1, atColumn: 6, row: 2) } world.place(Block1, atColumn: 4, row: 2) func turnaround() { turnRight() turnRight() } func walk4() { for i in 1 ... 3 { moveForward() } } func collet() { for i in 1 ... 2 { moveForward() } toggleSwitch() turnRight() walk4() collectGem() turnaround() walk4() turnRight() } for i in 1 ... 3 { collet() } ‌I would appreciate it if someone could offer some recommendations.‌ ‌Thanks a lot‌

Hello everyone, I am a participant in this year's Swift Student Challenge. My project requires the use of the front-facing camera to detect the user's body movements (supporting connection via iPhone to a Mac or other devices capable of running Xcode/Swift Playgrounds). I would like to ask if this is permitted under the competition rules? Please note that this feature functions entirely offline and does not require an internet connection.

Hello! I would like to use Speech Framework on my App Playground for this year challenge. But I still can't understand if I am allowed to use it to respect the rule of "not rely on a network connection". That's why: Speech framework can use on-device Speech recognition – No internet connection needed ✅. But it can ask to download an Apple's native language package to use it for this on-device recognition – To get this, you need to be connected to the Internet ❌. When I try to add a Speech Recognition Capabilities on my App Playground, its' description says: "Required to perform speech recognition using Apple's servers." (screenshot is attached). Does it mean that I won't be able to use on-device recognition on my App Playground? – And therefore, only online-version of this framework is available and I can't use it to participate on the challenge successfully❓. If it's possible, could you please make it clearer? This framework is crucial for my App Playground and I really need this to make it work. Thanks for your help in advance! And a have a good day!

Hello, Is it possible to integrate a database into Swift Playground on iPad? Otherwise, what can be done? Thank you.

Recently, I have experienced this issue and the alert keep popping on my playground non-stop although I pressed " allow". I have attached the issue screenshot in this post. Can anyone help me with that.

Hello, I’m encountering an issue where an alert dialog keeps appearing repeatedly in my swift playground project. I pressed "Allow" button but it keeps appearing again. Does anyone can help me about it?

Environment: Swift Playgrounds (macOS) SwiftUI App Preview macOS version: 26.2 (25C56) Issue: In Swift Playgrounds on macOS, the app repeatedly shows the system permission dialog: “My App would like to access data from other apps. Keeping app data separate makes it easier to manage your privacy and security.” Steps to Reproduce: Create a new SwiftUI app in Swift Playgrounds. Run the SwiftUI App Preview. When the permission dialog appears, click “Allow”. Expected Result: The permission should be granted once and persist, allowing the preview to continue normally. Actual Result: After clicking “Allow”, the SwiftUI App Preview crashes and restarts. When the preview restarts, the same permission dialog appears again. This repeats indefinitely, creating a loop. Notes: This occurs even when no explicit file system or inter-app data access code is written. The permission choice does not appear to persist between preview restarts. Question: Is this a known limitation of Swift Playgrounds sandboxing or SwiftUI App Preview? Is there an official workaround or recommended approach to avoid this behavior while using Swift Playgrounds?

我在使用Swift Playground时一直弹出这个框，好烦！！！！！ 可以告诉我怎么设置才能让这个弹出框不出现吗？

Hello! I'm trying to upload images to Swift Playground on XCode, and it's not working. When I created my playground, there is no Resources folder or an assets file. If I simply drag an image file to the sidebar, the image is not showing up when used in the app. This may be a simple fix, but as a beginner, I am struggling to find the solution. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Several lessons in Keep Going with Apps cannot be completed even when the code is correct. This blocks progression and greys out the Next button permanently.

Moving the cursor left and right becomes extremely sluggish, though up-down movement and mouse clicks are normal. The Apple Store Genius checked the hardware and even reinstalled the OS, but the issue remains.

I’m using Swift Playgrounds on macOS 26 to learn app development, starting with the “Get Started with Apps” template. Every time I run the template, macOS shows a popup asking: “Get Started with Apps” wants to access data from other apps. Allow / Don’t Allow I’ve already tried: Granting Playgrounds Full Disk Access in System Settings → Privacy & Security Checking Automation / App Permissions Restarting Playgrounds and macOS …but the popup still appears every run. I’m aware this is related to App Sandbox and privacy restrictions, but I’m looking for a way to: Suppress this popup entirely while running playgrounds code, or Run the template in a way that avoids triggering this permission request. macOS version: 26.1 Playgrounds app version: 4.6.4
