[iPadOS] App crashes when opening any session in Code tab (v1.260618.0) — main-thread stack overflow in SwiftUI
Preflight Checklist

- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)

What's Wrong?
After updating to 1.260618.0 from the App Store, tapping ANY session in the
Code tab (new or archived) crashes the app instantly. Chat and Cowork tabs
work fine. 100% reproducible. Clean state (reinstall / re-login) does not help.
Crash analysis (symbolicated .ips): main-thread stack overflow, not memory or network.
- EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV), KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x16b603ff8 (inside Stack Guard region)
- "Could not determine thread index for stack guard region"
- Faulting thread 0 (com.apple.main-thread), original stack length 175 frames
- Recursive cycle: AG::Graph::update_attribute -> AGGraphGetValue ->
swift_getTypeByMangledName -> __swift_instantiateGenericMetadata ->
_swift_getKeyPath -> "type metadata completion for WritableKeyPath / ReferenceWritableKeyPath"
SwiftUI session-screen view body recursively re-evaluates through KeyPath generic
metadata instantiation and blows the main-thread stack.
Incident ID: 1BEDF679-BC74-4E84-B728-260360419E73
What Should Happen?
Tapping a session in the Code tab opens it normally without crashing the app.
Error Messages/Logs
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Subtype: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x000000016b603ff8
Termination reason: "Could not determine thread index for stack guard region"
Faulting thread: 0 (com.apple.main-thread)
Fault address 0x16b603ff8 is inside the Stack Guard region (0x16b600000-0x16b604000),
stack directly above it -> main-thread stack overflow.
Recursive cycle (original stack length 175 frames):
AG::Graph::update_attribute -> AGGraphGetValue
-> swift_getTypeByMangledName
-> __swift_instantiateGenericMetadata
-> _swift_getKeyPath
-> type metadata completion function for WritableKeyPath / ReferenceWritableKeyPath
-> (repeats until stack guard hit)
App version: 1.260618.0 (27777773659)
Device: iPad Pro 11" M2 (iPad14,3)
OS: iPadOS 26.5 (23F77)
Incident ID: 1BEDF679-BC74-4E84-B728-260360419E73
Steps to Reproduce
- Update the Claude iOS/iPadOS app to 1.260618.0 from the App Store.
- Open the app (launches fine; Chat and Cowork tabs work).
- Go to the Code tab.
- Tap any session, new or archived.
- App crashes instantly. 100% reproducible, every session.
Note: not reproducible via claude.ai/code in Safari on the same device,
which points to the native SwiftUI session screen rather than backend data.
Reinstall and re-login do not help (deterministic, build-specific).

Is this a regression?
Yes, this worked in a previous version

Confirming on the stable App Store build (not beta): same crash on both iPhone and iPad.
Both devices worked fine until today's app update — immediately after updating, opening or starting any Code session crashes the app instantly. Chat and Cowork tabs are unaffected, and claude.ai/code in a browser works normally against the same sessions. Backend is a Linux VM running
claude remote-controlsessions.Reinstalling the app and rebooting the device do not help (consistent with the SwiftUI main-thread stack overflow analysis above — it's the client build, not local state or the backend). Clean independent repro.
Same crash on iPhone, not just iPadOS — and I'm on the exact build this issue flags.
So this reproduces on iPhone (iOS 27.0 Beta 2) as well as iPadOS — same build, same Code-tab session-open crash.
I am having the exact same issue iOS app 1.260618.0 hard-crashes opening a Remote Control session — main-thread
▎ stack overflow in Swift KeyPath metadata. iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 26.5 (23F77),
▎ CLI 2.1.186 (also repro'd on 2.1.183). Repro: tap any Remote Control session →
▎ instant crash, no UI. Crash: EXC_BAD_ACCESS/SIGSEGV on main thread,
▎ KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE in the Stack Guard region; ~48 frames of unbounded
▎ recursion in libswiftCore (swift_getTypeByMangledName → decodeMangledType →
▎ createBoundGenericType → _swift_getGenericMetadata → type metadata completion
▎ function for KeyPath/WritableKeyPath, repeating). Started with build 1.260618.0;
▎ 20+ identical crashes in one afternoon. Crash log attached.
Can confirm this is also the case for me, on both the iPhone 15 Pro Max and 17 Pro Max. Any attempt to open a session results in the app crashing. Claude Code on the mobile browser works fine.
I confirm for me as well
Confirmed. Same
Also, I have the same. I also just tried to update Claude desktop, open and close it, restart MacBooks, and restart iPhones. It continuously crashes.
Comfirm. just happened after update Claude app version:1.260618.0 (27777773659)
also confirm
+1 with same issue
I can also confirm on iPhone 17 Pro running iOS 26.5.1 - no issues with Claude app (Claude 1.14271.0 (c8f4d8)) on MacBook running macOS 26.5.1
I'm also facing same issue on iPhone with iOS26.4 and Claude app v 1.260618.0
Same crash on iPhone with iOS 26.5 and Claude app version 1.260618.0.
Some boat on all iOS devices, an older iPad on the previous release still works. All Claude updated crash the app 100% of the time.
I have the exakt same issue on iPhone 15 PRO, iOS 26.5.

Same issue here on iPhone
Iphone - same issue 🥲
Same issue since last update. Also iOS, Iphone.
Today's update seems to have fixed the issue for me. Remote sessions also work once again without the app crashing.
Update fixed the bug today !
Newest Update fixed it for me too 👍
Confirming the latest app build resolves this on iPhone (iOS 27.0 Beta 2) as well — opening sessions in the Code tab no longer crashes. (Was on the affected
1.260618.0; updated and it's fixed.) Thanks for the quick turnaround.Looks like the build they pushed this afternoon fixes it, and it's back up and working on our devices
Can confirm the latest build pushed this afternoon fixed the issue
Nice job Claude!
It got fixed in latest update. Thanks Team Anthropic for quick turnaround!
