iPhone Duo Simulator: screen stays dimmed and unresponsive after ⌘L lock/unlock in split view until ⌘ is pressed
Environment Xcode 27.1 (27A9269) Simulator runtime: iOS 27.1 (24A94401) Device: iPhone Duo simulator (unfolded) macOS 26.7.1 (25G241), Apple silicon Mac Hardware keyboard connected (default Simulator setting) Summary After locking the iPhone Duo simulator with ⌘L and unlocking it, the whole display stays dimmed and appears unresponsive. Both apps in split view are affected. Pressing the ⌘ key once restores the screen immediately. This reproduces with only system apps (Settings + Safari), so it does not appear to be app-specific. Steps to reproduce Boot the iPhone Duo simulator (iOS 27.1) and unfold it. Open Settings and Safari side by side in split view. Press ⌘L to lock the device. Unlock (swipe up on the lock screen). Expected The display returns to normal brightness and both apps respond to input. Actual The entire display, including both split-view apps, stays dimmed. Taps appear to do nothing while it is dimmed. Pressing ⌘ once immediately restores normal brightness. After recovering, Settings had navigated to a different page, which suggests some taps were delivered while the screen was dimmed. Notes It looks like the simulator misses the ⌘ key-up when ⌘L locks the device, so iOS behaves as if ⌘ is still held (the hold-⌘ shortcut overlay dimming the screen). Locking with Device ▸ Lock from the Simulator menu avoids the ⌘ modifier entirely. In one case the dimmed state persisted across relaunching an app and only cleared after rebooting the simulator. We first hit this while testing our own app in split view, where it looked like an app hang. Sampling the app's process showed the main thread idle. Workaround Press ⌘ once after unlocking, or lock with Device ▸ Lock instead of ⌘L. Has anyone else seen this on the iPhone Duo simulator, or is this a known issue?

The Mystery of the Disappearing NSUserDefaults Keys and Keychain empty
I am using the application it working fine. but when I put the application in the background and then delete it from the background and then open the application it reset all keychains and user default. I also add prewarning(protectedDataAvailable) which fixes that issue but this issue is coming some time with protectedDataAvailable as well.
