I am absolutely thrilled to share what I’ve been working on this year for #WWDC25 — WebKit for SwiftUI! developer.apple.com/videos/play/ww…

@nathanborror You can also use a `for try await` loop with the result of the `load` API (which is an AsyncSequence) to determine when the page has fully loaded!

Pro Tip: If you're trying to extract the contents of a web page use WebPage's export function and PDFKit to distill a PDF down to a String. Works pretty well for basic stuff where you just wanna pass off context to an LLM.

A new structure in 26.4: LinkMetadata developer.apple.com/documentation/…

Here’s a sneak peek of just how easy it is to get started! let metadata = try await LinkMetadata(fetching: URL(string: "apple.com")!)

The LinkPresentation framework is also now available on watchOS and tvOS for the first time!

Check out the all new LinkMetadata API in iOS 26.4, macOS 26.4, and visionOS 26.4! Part of the LinkPresentation framework, this API makes it easier than ever to get metadata from a URL, and also fully supports Codable, Transferable, and App Intents!

@derjanni @Apple Thank you for filing this feedback report!!

I found a bug in the new @apple #SwiftUI WebView.

Can’t believe the last thing I said in 2025 was “I want an alpaca house”

All this time I’ve just been mentally picturing it as two hybrids of a turtle with a dove instead of two "turtle doves"

すごい！WKWebViewではまともにできなかったことがWebViewでできるようになってる！ developer.apple.com/documentation/…

@Dimillian If you end up trying out the new SwiftUI WebKit API, please file feedback assistant reports with any bugs or feature requests that you may come across. Thanks!!

Anyone is using the new SwiftUI webview? Since I’m transitioning my native editor to web I’m wondering if I should use it on iOS 26. I have some small issues with a WKWebView représentable with a lot of native stuff around it.

@ifritlabs @Dimillian Hi Alex! Would you be able to file a report in Feedback Assistant with a reproducible test case for this issue? Thanks!!

@Dimillian It makes any iOS app crash when run with compatibility mode on macOS 26. So not using it yet

Mmmmm… something powerful is coming.

How am I now the same age as the @FriendsTV cast were in season 1

The @DCpeacemaker intro continues to be my favorite TV show intro ever

I’m happy to report that ball pits are just as much fun as an adult
