A work-in-progress SwiftUI recreation of the iOS & iPadOS Settings app (Preferences.app).
Important
This project is currently focused on iOS & iPadOS 26 beta using Xcode 26 beta. Use an older branch to deploy this project on iOS & iPadOS 18/Xcode 16 or earlier.
- This personal project is a recreation of Apple's Settings app for iOS and iPadOS 26 beta 5 (23A5308g).
- All features within the app are only simulations and have no effect on the device outside of the app.
- Features available within the app vary depending on the device model and its capabilities to make this recreation as accurate as possible.
- In some panes, the app will load actual preference bundles internally using a view controller bridge (functionality may vary).
- Previous versions are available as their own branches in this repository, going as far back as 17.4.
iOS 26
iPadOS 26
iOS 18 physical device mode
iOS 18 simulator instance mode
Open the project in Xcode and run with either a Simulator instance or a physical device running iOS or iPadOS with Developer Mode enabled as a destination.
Important
You may need to change the bundle identifier of the app to be able to sign it in Xcode for use on a physical device.
To switch between the simulator and physical-like layout of Settings in Simulator or Preview, modify the forcePhysical variable on line 12 of SettingsModel.swift under Preferences/Models.
As this is a project for learning Swift and SwiftUI, feel free to download or fork and modify the project for your own personal use.
