SOLVED: TabView: freeze when switching (randomly, but often)

Forums > SwiftUI
@linkiliz  

Hi everyone, my best wishes for this year to the swiftUI community, One of my views inside the TabView randomly freeze sometimes when navigate in the app and when i switch from a tab to an other. It is random, but make the tabView unusable for me (every button on the view become like disabled and doesn't work anymore). I feel like as soon as the views start to get a bit too complex, the tabView doesn't follow behind ... Maybe that it is a bug in SwiftUI (someone seems to have the same problem in apple dev forum https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/124475). Has anyone else seen this as well ? I'm thinking about making my own tabView...

I have not had this problem with TabView

You could try putting the TabView in the ....App.swift eg (This is the way Apple seem to do it)

@main
struct TestApp: App {
    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            TabView {
                ContentOneView()
                    .tabItem {
                        Image(systemName: "1.square")
                    }

                ContentTwoView()
                    .tabItem {
                        Image(systemName: "2.square")
                    }
            }
        }
    }
}

or if still get it can you refactor the screen that "freezes" which may help.

Hi @NigelGee, thank you for your feedback. i will try to put all in the app.swift, (if i can do it neatly, because i have all the login/registration views to handle, but if it works...).

Problem solved !

I started by putting everything in app.swift, but the problem persisted so I refactored the view and in fact the culprit seemed to be a computed property. Thanks for putting me on the right path 👍
