Capacitor 8.5 Released

Capacitor 8.5 has been released to address the need for UIScene adoption in anticipation of iOS 27, which requires apps built against the latest SDK to adopt scenes. This update allows developers to start testing their apps on the latest Xcode SDKs and iOS betas by providing documentation and tooling for migrating existing apps, primarily through a simple CLI command. The changes in Capacitor 8.5 are specific to iOS, ensuring that published apps will continue to run on iOS 27 without breaking when it officially ships. This update is crucial for developers to access Xcode 27 and identify any changes in their apps before the official release. The migration process is generally straightforward, but additional support is available for more complex cases. Capacitor 8.5 is a proactive step towards future app development adjustments, with Capacitor 9 expected to further accommodate multi-window and resizable app experiences.
