AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 17, 2025 -- Xojo, Inc., the developers behind Xojo—a powerful cross-platform development tool and programming language— announce the immediate availability of Xojo 2025 Release 3, a significant update that expands platform compatibility, introduces powerful new development tools and enhances performance across Desktop, Web, Console, iOS and Android.
This release adds official support for macOS Tahoe 26 and iOS 26, including Apple's new Liquid Glass interface technologies, ensuring developers can confidently build and deploy apps on the latest operating systems.
