Known issues
Desktop
Could not find org.jetbrains.androidx.window:window-core-desktop:1.4.0-alpha07
when usingmaterial-adaptive
ormaterial3-adaptive-navigation-suite
. YouTrack issue. Workaround is to exclude one dependency and include another:
// if you have material3AdaptiveNavigationSuite dependency
implementation(compose.material3AdaptiveNavigationSuite) {
exclude(group = "org.jetbrains.androidx.window")
}
// if you have org.jetbrains.compose.material3.adaptive dependency
implementation("org.jetbrains.compose.material3.adaptive:adaptive:1.2.0-alpha02") {
exclude(group = "org.jetbrains.androidx.window")
}
implementation("androidx.window:window-core-jvm:1.4.0")

ComposeUiTest
API. Theblock

TextField(TextFieldValue)
when used with a visual transformation with a non-identity offset mapping (potentially even crashing) #2117 - Fixed a memory leak and performance degradation when
ComposeUiFlags.isRectTrackingEnabled
set totrue
(default) #2112 - Support Preview parameters for Previews in common source sets in IJ and AS. Note: IDEs also need to implement support on their end. Please check the respective IDE release notes to confirm this is supported #5319
Example usage:import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable import org.jetbrains.compose.ui.tooling.preview.Preview import org.jetbrains.compose.ui.tooling.preview.PreviewParameter import org.jetbrains.compose.ui.tooling.preview.PreviewParameterProvider class MyPreviewParameterProvider : PreviewParameterProvider<String> { override val values = sequenceOf("Hello, Compose!", "Hello, World!") } /** * This function will generate two preview images with different texts */ @Preview @Composable fun MyPreview(@PreviewParameter(MyPreviewParameterProvider::class) text: String) { Text(text) }

- [macOS] Fixed strange glyph being displayed in a text field if window becomes unfocused, then focused again while there's an active composition in the text field (after pressing e.g. backspace) #2026
- [macOS] Fix showing the input method toolbar before any text field becomes focused (on JBR only; other runtimes continue to be buggy) #2047
- Improved performance for
ComposePanel
withSystem.setProperty("compose.swing.render.on.graphics", "true")
#2097 - Fix the positioning of the IME popup being too far away from the text, on screens with density greater than 1 #2118

Highlights
Multiple Platforms
- Compose Multiplatform codebase is fully migrated to K2. Please note that native and web klibs can be consumed only with Kotlin 2.1.0 or newer. Also, due to underlying changes in the compiler plugin, it's better to recompile libraries against the new version. Please let us know if you find any compatibility issues during this migration #1778
- Implement multiplatform
BackHandler
andPredictiveBackHandler
. And use them in material3 widgets and androidx-navigation library #1771
iOS
- Remove experimental flag from
fun enableTraceOSLog()
#1652
Web
- Improves text input support in Safari on mobile and desktop #1941

Breaking Changes
Tests
runOnIdle
will now executeaction
on the UI thread #1601runOnIdle
will no longer callwaitForIdle
after executing the action #1601- Advancing
mainClock
such that it doesn't reach the next frame, will no longer cause a recomposition #1618 - IdlingResource interface was moved from commonMain to android and desktop source sets. The related experimental methods of ComposeUiTest were moved too. They are not available for Web and iOS anymore. Consider using waitUntil function as an alternative. Note: it's a breaking change only for Web and iOS, but not for Desktop and Android #1822
Multiple Platforms
- Tests that relied on
waitForIdle
,awaitIdle
orrunOnIdle
(whether explicit or implicit) executingdelay
-ed coroutines will no longer work correctly. To fix this advance the test time viamainClock
manually, as needed #1550 - Tests that advance the test clock (via
mainClock.advanceTimeBy
) may see different behavior with regards to the amount and timing of recomposition, layout, drawing and effects #1550 - Multiplatform lifecycle was migrated from a internal
core-bundle
module to the androidx SavedState. Libraries that useorg.jetbrains.androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-savedstate
ororg.jetbrains.androidx.savedstate:savedstate
should migrate to the latest version #1850 - A custom implementation for deprecated
LocalTextInputService
is no longer supported #1974
iOS
- Update
AccessibilitySyncOptions
and removeAccessibilityDebugLogger
from public API #1604 - Remove obsolete Canvas Layers mode on iOS #1680
- Add Composable annotation to the
WindowInsets.Companion.waterfall
getter to match the expected API #1919
Desktop
- Deprecated/experimental
Modifier.onExternalDrag
has been removed - commonModifier.dragAndDropTarget
API should be used instead #1606
Migration Notes
Multiple Platforms
- Google Maven now contains some artifacts for all Kotlin targets including Wasm and JS. Compose Multiplatform now depends on those artifacts and user projects might need to add
google()
repo torepositories {...}
block if it is not there yet #1819 - material/material3 libraries no longer add a dependency to
material-icons-core
so if your project relied on that, you will have to explicitly add that dependency in yourbuild.gradle[.kts]
files: #2030implementation("org.jetbrains.compose.material:material-icons-core:1.7.3")
iOS
LocalUIViewController
moved to theandroidx.compose.ui.uikit
module #1608ComposeUIViewControllerDelegate

andCupertinoOverscrollEffect
are removed from public API #1806
