Xcode 26 Beta 7

Apple (downloads, releases, MacRumors):

Claude in Xcode is now available in the Intelligence settings panel, allowing users to seamlessly add their existing paid Claude account to Xcode and start using Claude Sonnet 4.

When using ChatGPT in Xcode, users can now start a new conversation with either GPT-4.1 or GPT-5, with GPT-5 set as the default.

ChatGPT in Xcode provides two model choices. “GPT-5” is optimized for quick, high-quality results, and should work well for most coding tasks. For difficult tasks, choose “GPT-5 (Reasoning)”, which spends more time thinking before responding, and can provide more accurate results for complex coding tasks.

With 9/9 under 2 weeks away, and (at least for me) the breakneck speed of iOS/iPadOS releases, I'm curious.... does everyone consider beta 8 for iOS and beta 7 for Xcode are the RCs? i honestly don't recall OS betas coming 1 week apart, nor Xcode almost the same.

I was "burned" a few years back when iOS & Xcode were released at the same time, but iPadOS was a few weeks (maybe 4?) later. At the time I had a single iPad using the beta but Xcode production couldn't tie in to that device after upgrading the app. Since I was balancing working with a few "universal" apps (iOS & iPad) but was deep into development on an iPadOS-only app, I had to shut down most development of it.

I actually call Apple Support and was told... "iOS is the same as iPadOS'! Except when it isn't. I guess I'll have to wait until 9/9 to find out if the've got things going better. (And this time hope they know how much iOS is NOT iPadOS.)


So do these all have to upload your code to the AI companies?
