- Description: Sometimes the smallest bugs can ripple into the biggest updates. After discovering a crash in Simply Remember It on the iOS 26 beta I fixed it quickly and although un-replicable on other apps chose to update all my other Simply apps with the same protection.

After releasing [the charting update for *Simply Remember It*](https://www.simplykyra.com/blog/simply-remember-it-update-with-smarter-charting-for-clearer-history/) I updated my phone to the iOS 26 beta so I could continue continue testing my apps ahead of the public release. I was surprised to immediately discover that a bug in *Simply Remember It* was causing the app to crash whenever the screen attempted to display the app's icon. 

Once I tracked down and fixed the issue I was further surprised to realize that I couldn't reproduce the crash in my other apps. But since they share similar code I decided to be proactive and release an update for all of them.

## The Bug

- Only appeared when running the iOS 26 beta from the beta version of Xcode.
- Triggered whenever the app tried to load the main `AppIcon` asset. This was not the launcher icon but anywhere the icon was displayed inside the app.
- The fix? Adding a **backup asset** so the app never gets stuck on `Need an imageRef`.

## Why Update All the Apps?

- Even though the crash only showed up in *Simply Remember It* I don’t want you to be caught off guard if it pops up later.
- Bugs sometimes surface only on certain devices or OS versions so I wanted to stop this before it potentially happens to someone else.
- By updating everything now all the *Simply* apps are ready for iOS 26 whenever you decide to upgrade.

## What Changed

- A small, behind-the-scenes update: no new features in this round.
- Added a safe backup image for app icons in **all** the apps.
- Future-proofing to keep things running smoothly as Apple evolves iOS and macOS.

💡 If you’re curious about the technical details, I’ll be sharing a blog post soon on how I handle app icons. Make sure you’re signed up for the **Blog Posts** newsletter list so you don’t miss it!

My goal with the *Simply* apps has always been to bring *calm to your everyday routines* and not add stress. This was a `quiet` update, but an important one as I wanted to make sure everything `just works` for you, no matter which Apple device or OS version you’re on.

Thanks for trusting my apps to be part of your daily flow! And, as always, I hope you're having a fantastic day!
