This one is for everyone with an iPhone Duo. Be Native now feels right at home on it: open it, close it, fold it or stand it on its side, and the app adapts to what you're doing. • Fold it like a little laptop: the video stays on top and the details sit below. It keeps playing while you fold and unfold, no restarts. • Reading an article? Open Duo like a book and turn the pages, with the spine right on the hinge. On iPad there's a book button that does the same. • Watching something before bed? Close Duo and lay it on its side. It becomes an alarm clock: the video fills the screen, and podcasts get big, easy controls. Notes got some love too. Your latest notes now sit right below your folders, so you can jump back in with one tap. The cards are cleaner, and code snippets show their language and a peek at the code. Every editor has a Paste button, and new snippets remember the last language you used. In lessons, Favorites and Share now live in the top bar, the Lock Screen shows the lesson card with its course, and the code buttons have a shiny new Liquid Glass look. Other bug fixes and improvements. Fixed an issue that caused the app to crash at launch on iOS 26.x due to an unrecognized symbol. Improved semantic search indexing speed and the accuracy of its results.

SiriAI, Spotlight and on-device intelligence. A refreshed Library and Search, with better accessibility. ASK BE NATIVE Ask about what you are studying and get an answer grounded in your own library: courses, lessons, podcasts, articles and their transcripts. It runs on device, so your questions never leave your iPhone or iPad. "How do I animate a chart in SwiftUI?" "What did the MapKit lesson say about annotations?" Ask SiriAI to find lessons. Be Native opens Ask Be Native with your question already submitted: "Find lessons about how to make a map in Be Native" "Search for lessons about SwiftUI using Be Native" Requires iOS 27 on a device with Apple Intelligence and SiriAI (beta). NOTES BY VOICE Create a note, add text to one, rename it or open it without touching the screen. If you leave something out, SiriAI asks for it. Find a note by its content, then tap its card to open it. "Create a note in Be Native" "Add 'check the delegate' to my SwiftData note in Be Native" "Find notes about SwiftUI using Be Native" PODCASTS BY VOICE Ask for an episode and it starts playing, with the episode and show on the Lock Screen and in Control Center. "Play the latest episode of Apple Coding Daily in Be Native" Say "in Be Native" or "using Be Native" so SiriAI knows which app you mean. SEARCH THAT UNDERSTANDS YOU Your courses, lessons, podcasts, articles and notes are indexed for Spotlight, transcripts included, so searching by an idea finds the lesson that explains it, not just the words you typed. Results come in one list with a featured card, and with Apple Intelligence our engine tells you why it chose them. Before you type, explore by topic. SHORTCUTS FOR TASKS SIRIAI CANNOT HANDLE YET Add them once in Shortcuts, then run them directly. "Continue my course in Be Native" picks up the lesson you left halfway "What was I watching in Be Native" brings back the last thing you opened "Open my notes in Be Native" The Find Lessons shortcut asks what you want to learn, then answers with a short explanation and the lessons that cover it. NOTIFICATIONS THAT TAKE YOU THERE Tapping a notification about new content opens that course or lesson directly. INSIGHT: OTHERS Others now works like the rest of Insight: each source has its own row of cards that you scroll sideways, and tapping a card plays the episode or opens the video. A Liquid Glass button next to the section picker filters by source. NOTES Your notes are now a clean list that is easy to scan, with the title and a short preview of each one. Notebooks and folders use a card layout, notes open in a dedicated reading screen, and Recently Deleted keeps what you delete until you empty it. LIBRARY My Content is now Library: Overview, Saved, In Progress and Completed, with search, sorting, filters by type and year, and grid or list on iPad. Continue where you left off and see your pace at a glance. ARTICLES The read-aloud version remembers where you stopped, on all your devices. On iPad in landscape, Read as a book opens a two-page spread. LISTS AND LESSONS Use + to choose a list. It remembers your last choice and removes an item if it is already on that list. Swipe a lesson to mark it as watched or add it to your last list. ACCESSIBILITY Clearer VoiceOver labels, headings and actions on every screen. Magic Tap starts and pauses playback. Text grows to the largest sizes, Bold Text uses our own typeface, and Reduce Motion and Increase Contrast are respected in light and dark mode. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE Faster, steadier streaming answers. Audio no longer blocks the interface while the app starts. Course trailers pause what you are listening to, and intros use your selected video language. Clearer messages when content is unavailable. Fixes across iPad and Mac. STICKERS A new sticker pack for Messages with up to 30 Swifty moments any developer will relate to. SiriAI currently speaks English only. More languages are coming soon.

Be Native is now also available on the Mac App Store, and this update brings the biggest set of improvements since launch. NEW: NOTES FOR DEVELOPERS A new Notes tab replaces the old notebooks. Keep video notes with timestamps, code snippets, skills, resources, and free-form notes, organized in folders, written in Markdown, and shareable as text. Create up to 10 notes without an account; sign in for unlimited notes synced across your devices. The Notes tab in the player no longer requires a subscription. EXPLAIN THIS CODE WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE Tap the Apple Intelligence button on any code snippet to get a formatted explanation generated on your device. PLAYER • Switching the audio or subtitle language now switches the transcription too, and the app remembers your choice ("Last chosen" in Settings). • Transcription with continuous highlighting, no stray ellipses, and larger text. • The empty Code tab is now centered. CONTENT • Redesigned favorites lists. • iPad: new full-bleed banners in What's New and Learning that collapse as you scroll. • Posts: newsletters have their own section at the top. • Latest Videos shows two videos per playlist, plus a new Top Podcasts row. • Completed and "New" badges on cards. • Your name and profile photo now sync across devices. ACCESSIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE • Better contrast in the paywall and badges, Dynamic Type in the transcription and filters, Reduce Motion respected everywhere, VoiceOver headings, and larger tap targets on code buttons. • Smoother scrolling with lighter images and lazy lists. FIXES Podcast player colors in light and dark mode, the stacked sheet on the favorite button, filter chips tappable across their whole area, vertical scrolling in Insights, the first Learning row on iPad, duplicated "My Notes" notebooks merged, and the Support form now attaches a diagnostic report so we can help you faster.
