Hi, I have been trying to integrate a CoreML model into Xcode. The model was made using tensorflow layers. I have included both the model info and a link to the app repository. I am mainly just really confused on why its not working. It seems to only be printing the result for case 1 (there are 4 cases labled, case 0, case 1, case 2, and case 3). If someone could help work me through this error that would be great! here is the link to the repository: https://github.com/ShivenKhurana1/Detect-to-Protect-App this file with the model code is called SecondView.swift and here is the model info: Input: conv2d_input-> image (color 224x224) Output: Identity -> MultiArray (Float32 1x4)

Hi, I'm testing DockKit with a very simple setup: I use VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest to detect a face and then call dockAccessory.track(...) using the detected bounding box. The stand is correctly docked (state == .docked) and dockAccessory is valid. I'm calling .track(...) with a single observation and valid CameraInformation (including size, device, orientation, etc.). No errors are thrown. To monitor this, I added a logging utility – track(...) is being called 10–30 times per second, as recommended in the documentation. However: the stand does not move at all. There is no visible reaction to the tracking calls. Is there anything I'm missing or doing wrong? Is VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest supported for DockKit tracking, or are there hidden requirements? Would really appreciate any help or pointers – thanks! That's my complete code: extension VideoFeedViewController: AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate { func captureOutput(_ output: AVCaptureOutput, didOutput sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer, from connection: AVCaptureConnection) { guard let frame = CMSampleBufferGetImageBuffer(sampleBuffer) else { return } detectFace(image: frame) func detectFace(image: CVPixelBuffer) { let faceDetectionRequest = VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest() { vnRequest, error in guard let results = vnRequest.results as?

I downloaded Xcode Beta 1 on my mac (did not upgrade the OS). The target OS level of iOS26 and the device simulator for iOS26 is downloaded and selected as the target. When I try a simple Playground in Xcode ( #Playground ) I get a session error. #Playground { let avail = SystemLanguageModel.default.availability if avail != .available { print("SystemLanguageModel not available") return } let session = LanguageModelSession() do { let response = try await session.respond(to: "Create a recipe for apple pie") } catch { print(error) } } The error I get is: Asset com.apple.gm.safety_deny_input.foundation_models.framework.api not found in Model Catalog Is there a way to test drive the FoundationModel code without upgrading to macos26?

I'd love to add a feature based on FoundationModels to the Mac Catalyst version of my iOS app. Unfortunately I get an error when importing FoundationModels: No such module 'FoundationModels'. Documentation says Mac Catalyst is supported: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundationmodels I can create iOS builds using the FoundationModels framework without issues. Hope this will be fixed soon! Config: Xcode 26.0 beta (17A5241e) macOS 26.0 Beta (25A5279m) 15-inch, M4, 2025 MacBook Air

The documentation for the Create ML tool ("Building an object detector data source") mentions that there are options for using normalized values instead of pixels and also different anchor point origins ("MLBoundingBoxCoordinatesOrigin") instead of always using "center". However, the JSON format for these does not appear in any examples. Does anyone know the format for these options?

I’m seeing consistent failures using SoundAnalysis live classification when my app moves to the background. Setup iOS 17.x AVAudioEngine mic capture SNAudioStreamAnalyzer SNClassifySoundRequest(classifierIdentifier: .version1) UIBackgroundModes = audio AVAudioSession .record / .playAndRecord, active Audio capture + level metering continue working in background (mic indicator stays on) Issue As soon as the app enters background / screen locks: SoundAnalysis starts failing every second with domain:com.apple.SoundAnalysis, code:2(SNErrorCode.operationFailed) Audio capture itself continues normally When the app returns to foreground, classification immediately resumes without restarting the engine/analyzer Question Is live background sound classification with the built-in SoundAnalysis classifier officially unsupported or known to fail in background? If so, is a custom Core ML model the only supported approach for background detection? Or is there a required configuration I’m missing to keep SNClassifySoundRequest(.version1) running in background? Thanks for any clarification.

I have an app that streams in data from the Foundation Model and I have a card that shows one of the outputs. I want my card to accept a partially generated model but I keep getting a nonsensical error. The error I get on line 59 is: Cannot convert value of type 'FrostDate.VegetableSuggestion.PartiallyGenerated' (aka 'FrostDate.VegetableSuggestion') to expected argument type 'FrostDate.VegetableSuggestion.PartiallyGenerated' Here is my card with preview: import SwiftUI import FoundationModels struct VegetableSuggestionCard: View { let vegetableSuggestion: VegetableSuggestion.PartiallyGenerated init(vegetableSuggestion: VegetableSuggestion.PartiallyGenerated) { self.vegetableSuggestion = vegetableSuggestion } var body: some View { VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 8) { if let name = vegetableSuggestion.vegetableName { Text(name) .font(.headline) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } if let startIndoors = vegetableSuggestion.startSeedsIndoors { Text("Start indoors: \(startIndoors)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } if let startOutdoors = vegetableSuggestion.startSeedsOutdoors { Text("Start outdoors: \(startOutdoors)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } if let transplant = vegetableSuggestion.transplantSeedlingsOutdoors { Text("Transplant: \(transplant)") .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } if let tips = vegetableSuggestion.tips { Text("Tips: \(tips)") .foregroundStyle(.secondary) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) } } .padding(16) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .leading) .background( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16, style: .continuous) .fill(.background) .overlay( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 16, style: .continuous) .strokeBorder(.quaternary, lineWidth: 1) ) .shadow(color: Color.black.opacity(0.05), radius: 6, x: 0, y: 2) ) } } #Preview("Vegetable Suggestion Card") { let sample = VegetableSuggestion.PartiallyGenerated( vegetableName: "Tomato", startSeedsIndoors: "6–8 weeks before last frost", startSeedsOutdoors: "After last frost when soil is warm", transplantSeedlingsOutdoors: "1–2 weeks after last frost", tips: "Harden off seedlings; provide full sun and consistent moisture." ) VegetableSuggestionCard(vegetableSuggestion: sample) .padding() .previewLayout(.sizeThatFits) }

In working with Apple's foundation models, we often want to provide as much context as possible. However, since the model has a context size limit of 4096 tokens, is there a way to estimate the number of tokens beforehand?

I am calling into an app extension from a Safari Web Extension (sendNativeMessage, which in turn results in a call to NSExtensionRequestHandling’s beginRequest). My Safari extension aims to make use of the new foundation models for some of the features it provides. In my testing, I hit the rate limit by sending 4 requests, waiting 30 seconds between each. This makes the FoundationModels framework (which would otherwise serve my use case perfectly well) unusable in this context, because the model is called in response to user input, and this rate of user input is perfectly plausible in a real world scenario. The error thrown as a result of the rate limit is “Safety guardrail was triggered after consecutive failures during streaming.", but looking at the system logs in Console.app shows the rate limit as the real culprit. My suggestions: Please introduce sensible rate limits for app extensions, through an entitlement if need be. If it is rate limited to 1 request per every couple of seconds, that would already fix the issue for me. Please document the rate limit. Please make the thrown error reflect that it is the result of a rate limit and not a generic guardrail violation. IMPORTANT: please indicate in the thrown error when it is safe to try again.

Is foundation models matured enough to take input from the Apple Vision framework to generate responses? Something similar to what google's gemini does although in a much smaller scale and for a very specific niche.

I'm working on a to-do list app that uses SpeechTranscriber and Foundation Models framework to transcribe a user's voice into text and create to-do items based off of it. After about 30 minutes looking at my code, I couldn't figure out why I was failing to generate a to-do for "I need to go to Six Flags Great America tomorrow at 3pm." It turns out, I was consistently firing the Foundation Models's safety filter violation for unsafe content ("May contain unsafe content"). Lesson learned: consider comprehensively logging Foundation Models error states to quickly identify when safety filters are unexpectedly triggered.

HI, I've been modifying the Camera sample app found here: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/sample-apps/capturingphotos-camerapreview ... in the processpreview images, I am calling in to the Vision APis to either detect a person or object, then I'm using the segmentation mask to extract the person and composite them onto a different background with some other filters. I am using coreimage to filter the CIImages, and converting and displaying as a SwiftUI Image. When running on my IPhone, it works fine. When running on my Iphone with the debugger, it crashes within a few seconds... Attached is a screenshot. At the top is an EXC_BAD_ACCESS in libRPAC.dylib`std::__1::__hash_table<std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::__unordered_map_hasher<long, std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::hash, std::__1::equal_to, true>, std::__1::__unordered_map_equal<long, std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::equal_to, std::__1::hash, true>, std::__1::allocator<std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>>>::__emplace_unique_key_args<long, std::__1::piecewise_construct_t const&, std::__1::tuple<long const&>, std::__1::tuple<>>: This was working fine a couple of days ago..

Hi all. My adapter model just won't invoke my tool. The problem I am having is covered in an older post: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/794839?answerId=852262022#852262022 Sadly the thread dies there and no resolution is seen in that thread. It's worth noting that I have developed an AI chatbot built around LanguageModelSession to which I feed the exact same system prompt that I feed to my training set (pasted further in this post). The AI chatbot works perfectly, the tool is invoked when needed. I am training the adapter model because the base model whilst capable doesn't produce the quality I'm looking for. So here's the template of an item in my training set: [ { 'role': 'system', 'content': systemPrompt, 'tools': [TOOL_DEFINITION] }, { 'role': 'user', 'content': entry['prompt'] }, { 'role': 'assistant', 'content': entry['code'] } ] where TOOL_DEFINITION = { 'type': 'function', 'function': { 'name': 'WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem', 'description': 'Writes an Übersicht Widget to the file system. Call this tool as the last step in processing a prompt that generates a widget.', 'parameters': { 'type': 'object', 'properties': { 'jsxContent': { 'type': 'string', 'description': 'Complete JSX code for an Übersicht widget. This should include all required exports: command, refreshFrequency, render, and className. The JSX should be a complete, valid Übersicht widget file.' } }, 'required': ['jsxContent'] } } ... and systemPrompt = A conversation between a user and a helpful assistant. You are an Übersicht widget designer. Create Übersicht widgets when requested by the user. IMPORTANT: You have access to a tool called WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem. When asked to create a widget, you MUST call this tool. ### Tool Usage: Call WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem with complete JSX code that implements the Übersicht Widget API. Generate custom JSX based on the user's specific request - do not copy the example below. ### Übersicht Widget API (REQUIRED): Every Übersicht widget MUST export these 4 items: - export const command: The bash command to execute (string) - export const refreshFrequency: Refresh rate in milliseconds (number) - export const render: React component function that receives {output} prop (function) - export const className: CSS positioning for absolute placement (string) Example format (customize for each request): WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem({jsxContent: `export const command = "echo hello"; export const refreshFrequency = 1000; export const render = ({output}) => { return <div>{output}</div>; }; export const className = "top: 20px; left: 20px;"`}) ### Rules: - The terms "ubersicht widget", "widget", "a widget", "the widget" must all be interpreted as "Übersicht widget" - Generate complete, valid JSX code that follows the Übersicht widget API - When you generate a widget, don't just show JSON or code - you MUST call the WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem tool - Report the results to the user after calling the tool ### Examples: - "Generate a Übersicht widget" → Use WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem tool - "Can you add a widget that shows the time" → Use WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem tool - "Create a widget with a button" → Use WriteUbersichtWidgetToFileSystem tool When the script that I use to compose the full training set is executed, entry['prompt'] and entry['code'] contain the prompt and the resulting JSX code for one of the examples I'm feeding to the training session. This is repeated for about 60 such examples that I have in my sample data collection. Thanks for any help. Michael

Hi, unfortunately I am not able to verify this but I remember some time ago I was able to create CoreML models that had one (or more) inputs with an enumerated shape size, and one (or more) inputs with a static shape. This was some months ago. Since then I updated my MacOS to Sequoia 15.5, and when I try to execute MLModels with this setup I get the following error libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type CoreML::MLNeuralNetworkUtilities::AsymmetricalEnumeratedShapesException: A model doesn't allow input features with enumerated flexibility to have unequal number of enumerated shapes, but input feature global_write_indices has 1 enumerated shapes and input feature input_hidden_states has 3 enumerated shapes. It may make sense (but not really though) to verify that for inputs with a flexible enumerated shape they all have the same number of possible shapes is the same, but this should not impede the possibility of also having static shape inputs with a single shape defined alongside the flexible shape inputs.

I didn't run benchmarks before update, but it seems at least 5x slower. Of course all the LLM work is on remote servers, so is non-intuitive to me this should be happening. Had updated MacOS and Xcode to 26.1RC at the same time, so can't even say I think it is MacOS or I think it is Xcode. Before the update the progress indicator for each piece of code might seem to get stuck at the very end (and toggling between Navigators and Coding Assistant) in Xcode UI seemed to refresh the UI and confirm coding complete... but now it seems progress races to 50%, then often is stuck at 75%... well earlier than used to get stuck. And it like something is legitimately processing not just a UI glitch. I'm wondering if this is somehow tied to visual rendering of the code in the little white window? CMD-TAB into Xcode seems laggy. Xcode is pinning a CPU. Why, this is all remote LLM work? MacBook Pro 2021 M1 64GB RAM. Went from 26.01 to 26.1RC. Didn't touch any of the betas until RC1.

I just recently updated to iOS 26 beta (23A5336a) to test an app I am developing I running an MLModel loaded from a .mlmodelc file. On the current iOS version 18.6.2 the model is running as expected with no issues. However on iOS 26 I am now getting error when trying to perform an inference to the model where I pass a camera frame into it. Below is the error I am seeing when I attempt to run an inference. at the bottom it says "Failed with status=0x1d : statusType=0x9: Program Inference error status=-1 Unable to compute the prediction using a neural network model. It can be an invalid input data or broken/unsupported model " does this indicate I need to convert my model or something? I don't understand since it runs as normal on iOS 18. Any help getting this to run again would be greatly appreciated.

Hi We're on tensorflow 2.20 that has support now for python 3.13 (finally!). tensorflow-metal is still only supporting 2.18 which is over a year old. When can we expect to see support in tensorflow-metal for tf 2.20 (or later!) ? I bought a mac thinking I would be able to get great performance from the M processors but here I am using my CPU for my ML projects. If it's taking so long to release it, why not open source it so the community can keep it more up to date? cheers Matt

Would there be a popup automatically shown to a user saying to enable Apple Intelligence if our user has the toggle turned off? Just curious about how that experience looks for both us as developers and users.

Hey dear developers! This post should be available for the future Siri updates and improvements but also for wishes in this forum so that everyone can share their opinion and idea please stay friendly. have fun! I had already thought about developing a demo app to demonstrate my idea for a better Siri. My change of many: Wish Update: Siri's language recognition capabilities have been significantly enhanced. Instead of manually setting the language, Siri can now automatically recognize the language you intend to use, making language switching much more efficient. Simply speak the language you want to communicate in, and Siri will automatically recognize it and respond accordingly. Whether you speak English, German, or Japanese, Siri will respond in the language you choose.
