# What's new in SwiftUI for iOS 26

**[Hacking with Swift](https://daily.dev/sources/hackingwithswift)** · 3 min read · 3 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

SwiftUI for iOS 26 introduces several key improvements including native WebView support, rich text editing for TextEditor, and section index list titles. The update focuses on resolving common developer complaints that previously required dropping down to UIKit. New features include the @Animatable macro for easier animations, extended openURL action with in-app browser support, and liquid glass UI effects. SF Symbols receives new draw-on animations, and there are specific updates for Apple's liquid glass interface. Despite these improvements, some features remain missing including AsyncImageView and @AppStorage sync with iCloud.
