CoreML regression between macOS 26.0.1 and macOS 26.1 Beta causing scrambled tensor outputs
We’ve encountered what appears to be a CoreML regression between macOS 26.0.1 and macOS 26.1 Beta. In macOS 26.0.1, CoreML models run and produce correct results. However, in macOS 26.1 Beta, the same models produce scrambled or corrupted outputs, suggesting that tensor memory is being read or written incorrectly. The behavior is consistent with a low-level stride or pointer arithmetic issue — for example, using 16-bit strides on 32-bit data or other mismatches in tensor layout handling. Reproduction Install ON1 Photo RAW 2026 or ON1 Resize 2026 on macOS 26.0.1. Use the newest Highest Quality resize model, which is Stable Diffusion–based and runs through CoreML. Observe correct, high-quality results. Upgrade to macOS 26.1 Beta and run the same operation again. The output becomes visually scrambled or corrupted. We are also seeing similar issues with another Stable Diffusion UNet model that previously worked correctly on macOS 26.0.1. This suggests the regression may affect multiple diffusion-style architectures, likely due to a change in CoreML’s tensor stride, layout computation, or memory alignment between these versions. Notes The affected models are exported using standard CoreML conversion pipelines. No custom operators or third-party CoreML runtime layers are used. The issue reproduces consistently across multiple machines. It would be helpful to know if there were changes to CoreML’s tensor layout, precision handling, or MLCompute backend between macOS 26.0.1 and 26.1 Beta, or if this is a known regression in the current beta.

coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed
My iOS app supports iOS 18, and I’m using an encrypted CoreML model secured with a key generated from Xcode. Every few months (around every 3 months), the encrypted model fails to load for both me and my users. When I investigate, I find this error: coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed: noEntryFound("No records found"). Make sure the encryption key was generated with correct team ID To temporarily fix it, I delete the old key, generate a new one, re-encrypt the model, and submit an app update. This resolves the issue, but only for a while. This is a terrible experience for users and obviously not a sustainable solution. I want to understand: Why is this happening? Is there a known expiration or invalidation policy for CoreML encryption keys? How can I prevent this issue permanently? Any insights or official guidance would be really appreciated.

CoreML MLModelErrorModelDecryption error
Somehow I'm not able to decrypt our ml models on my machine. It does not matter: If I clean the build / delete the build folder If it's a local build or a build downloaded from our build server I log in as a different user I reboot my system (15.4.1 (24E263) I use a different network Re-generate the encryption keys. I'm the only one in my team confronted with this issue. Using the encrypted models works fine for everyone else. As soon as our application tries to load the bundled ml model the following error is logged and returned: Could not create persistent key blob for CD49E04F-1A42-4FBE-BFC1-2576B89EC233 : error=Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Failed to generate key request for CD49E04F-1A42-4FBE-BFC1-2576B89EC233 with error: -42908" Error code 9 points to a decryption issue, but offers no useful pointers and suggests that some sort of network request needs to be made in order to decrypt our models. /*! Core ML throws/returns this error when the framework encounters an error in the model decryption subsystem. The typical cause for this error is in the key server configuration and the client application cannot do much about it. For example, a model loading method will throw/return the error when it uses incorrect model decryption key. */ MLModelErrorModelDecryption API_AVAILABLE(macos(11.0), ios(14.0), watchos(7.0), tvos(14.0)) = 9, I could not find a reference to error '-42908' anywhere. ChatGPT just lied to me, as usual... How do can I resolve this or diagnose this further? Thanks.

Regression in EnumeratedShaped support in recent MacOS release
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.

Core ML model decryption on Intel chips
About the Core ML model encryption mention in:https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreml/encrypting-a-model-in-your-app When I encrypted the model, if the machine is M chip, the model will load perfectly. One the other hand, when I test the executable on an Intel chip macbook, there will be an error: Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Operation not supported on this platform." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Operation not supported on this platform.} Intel test machine is 2019 macbook air with CPU: Intel i5-8210Y, OS: 14.7.6 23H626, With Apple T2 Security Chip. The encrypted model do load on M2 and M4 macbook air. If the model is NOT encrypted, it will also load on the Intel test machine. I did not find in Core ML document that suggest if the encryption/decryption support Intel chips. May I check if the decryption indeed does NOT support Intel chip?

iOS 26 beta breaking my model
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. Thank you, processRequest:model:qos:qIndex:modelStringID:options:returnValue:error:: Could not process request ret=0x1d lModel=_ANEModel: { modelURL=file:///var/containers/Bundle/Application/04F01BF5-D48B-44EC-A5F6-3C7389CF4856/RizzCanvas.app/faceParsing.mlmodelc/ : sourceURL=(null) : UUID=46228BFC-19B0-45BF-B18D-4A2942EEC144 : key={"isegment":0,"inputs":{"input":{"shape":[512,512,1,3,1]}},"outputs":{"var_633":{"shape":[512,512,1,19,1]},"94_argmax_out_value":{"shape":[512,512,1,1,1]},"argmax_out":{"shape":[512,512,1,1,1]},"var_637":{"shape":[512,512,1,19,1]}}} : identifierSource=1 : cacheURLIdentifier=01EF2D3DDB9BA8FD1FDE18C7CCDABA1D78C6BD02DC421D37D4E4A9D34B9F8181_93D03B87030C23427646D13E326EC55368695C3F61B2D32264CFC33E02FFD9FF : string_id=0x00000000 : program=_ANEProgramForEvaluation: { programHandle=259022032430 : intermediateBufferHandle=13949 : queueDepth=127 } : state=3 : [Espresso::ANERuntimeEngine::__forward_segment 0] evaluate[RealTime]WithModel returned 0; code=8 err=Error Domain=com.apple.appleneuralengine Code=8 "processRequest:model:qos:qIndex:modelStringID:options:returnValue:error:: ANEProgramProcessRequestDirect() Failed with status=0x1d : statusType=0x9: Program Inference error" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=processRequest:model:qos:qIndex:modelStringID:options:returnValue:error:: ANEProgramProcessRequestDirect() Failed with status=0x1d : statusType=0x9: Program Inference error} [Espresso::handle_ex_plan] exception=Espresso exception: "Generic error": ANEF error: /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/04F01BF5-D48B-44EC-A5F6-3C7389CF4856/RizzCanvas.app/faceParsing.mlmodelc/model.espresso.net, processRequest:model:qos:qIndex:modelStringID:options:returnValue:error:: ANEProgramProcessRequestDirect() Failed with status=0x1d : statusType=0x9: Program Inference error status=-1 Unable to compute the prediction using a neural network model.

SoundAnalysis built-in classifier fails in background (SNErrorCode.operationFailed)
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.

Is it possible to instantiate MLModel strictly from memory (Data) to support custom encryption?
We are trying to implement a custom encryption scheme for our Core ML models. Our goal is to bundle encrypted models, decrypt them into memory at runtime, and instantiate the MLModel without the unencrypted model file ever touching the disk. We have looked into the native apple encryption described here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreml/encrypting-a-model-in-your-app but it has limitations like not working on intel macs, without SIP, and doesn’t work loading from dylib. It seems like most of the Core ML APIs require a file path, there is MLModelAsset APIs but I think they just write a modelc back to disk when compiling but can’t find any information confirming that (also concerned that this seems to be an older API, and means we need to compile at runtime). I am aware that the native encryption will be much more secure but would like not to have the models in readable text on disk. Does anyone know if this is possible or any alternatives to try to obfuscate the Core ML models, thanks

Unable to load a quantized Qwen 1.7B model on an iPhone SE 3
I am trying to benchmark and see if the Qwen3 1.7B model can run in an iPhone SE 3 [4 GB RAM]. My core problem is - Even with weight quantization the SE 3 is not able to load into memory. What I've tried: I am converting a Torch model to the Core ML format using coremltools. I have tried the following combinations of quantization and context length 8 bit + 1024 8 bit + 2048 4 bit + 1024 4 bit + 2048 All the above quantizations are done with dynamic shape with the default being [1,1] in the hope that the whole context length does not get allocated in memory The 4-bit model is approximately 865MB on disk The 8-bit model is approximately 1.7 GB on disk During load: With the int4 quantization the memory spikes during intitial load a lot. Could this be because many operations are converted to int8 or fp16 as core ML does not perform operations natively on int4? With int8 on the profiler the memory does not go above 2 GB (only 900 MB) but it is still not able to load as it shows the following error. 2GB is the limit where jetsam kills the app for the iPhone SE 3 E5RT: Error(s) occurred compiling MIL to BNNS graph: [CreateBnnsGraphProgramFromMIL]: BNNS Graph Compile: failed to preallocate file with error: No space left on device for path: /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/ 5B8BB7D2-06A6-4BAE-A042-407B6D805E7C/Library/Caches /com.tss.qwen3-coreml/ com.apple.e5rt.e5bundlecache/ 23A341/<long key>.tmp.12586_4362093968.bundle/ H14.bundle/main/main_bnns/bnns_program.bnnsir Some online sources have suggested activation quantization but I am unsure if that will have any impact on loading [as the spike is during load and not inference] The model spec also suggests that there is no dequantization happening (for e.g from 4 bit -> fp16) So I had couple of queries: Has anyone faced similar issues? What could be the reasons for the temporary memory spike during LOAD What are approaches that can be adopted to deal with this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

CoreML MLE5ProgramLibrary AOT recompilation hangs/crashes on iOS 26.4 — C++ exception in espresso IR compiler bypasses Swift error handling
Area: CoreML / Machine Learning Describe the issue: On iOS 26.4, calling MLModel(contentsOf:configuration:) to load an .mlpackage model hangs indefinitely and eventually kills the app via watchdog. The same model loads and runs inference successfully in under 1 second on iOS 26.3.1. The hang occurs inside eort_eo_compiler_compile_from_ir_program (espresso) during on-device AOT recompilation triggered by MLE5ProgramLibraryOnDeviceAOTCompilationImpl createProgramLibraryHandleWithRespecialization:error:. A C++ exception (__cxa_throw) is thrown inside libBNNS.dylib during the exception unwind, which then hangs inside __cxxabiv1::dyn_cast_slow and __class_type_info::search_below_dst. Swift's try/catch does not catch this — the exception originates in C++ and the process hangs rather than terminating cleanly. Setting config.computeUnits = .cpuOnly does not resolve the issue. MLE5ProgramLibrary initialises as shared infrastructure regardless of compute units. Steps to reproduce: Create an app with an .mlpackage CoreML model using the MLE5/espresso backend Call MLModel(contentsOf: modelURL, configuration: config) at runtime Run on a device on iOS 26.3.1 — loads successfully in <1 second Update device to iOS 26.4 — hangs indefinitely, app killed by watchdog after 60–745 seconds Expected behaviour: Model loads successfully, or throws a catchable Swift error on failure. Actual behaviour: Process hangs in MLE5ProgramLibrary.lazyInitQueue. App killed by watchdog. No Swift error thrown. Full stack trace at point of hang: Thread 1 Queue: com.apple.coreml.MLE5ProgramLibrary.lazyInitQueue (serial) frame 0: __cxxabiv1::__class_type_info::search_below_dst libc++abi.dylib frame 1: __cxxabiv1::(anonymous namespace)::dyn_cast_slow libc++abi.dylib frame 2: ___lldb_unnamed_symbol_23ab44dd4 libBNNS.dylib frame 23: eort_eo_compiler_compile_from_ir_program espresso frame 24: -[MLE5ProgramLibraryOnDeviceAOTCompilationImpl createProgramLibraryHandleWithRespecialization:error:] CoreML frame 25: -[MLE5ProgramLibrary _programLibraryHandleWithForceRespecialization:error:] CoreML frame 26: __44-[MLE5ProgramLibrary prepareAndReturnError:]_block_invoke CoreML frame 27: _dispatch_client_callout libdispatch.dylib frame 28: _dispatch_lane_barrier_sync_invoke_and_complete libdispatch.dylib frame 29: -[MLE5ProgramLibrary prepareAndReturnError:] CoreML frame 30: -[MLE5Engine initWithContainer:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 31: +[MLE5Engine loadModelFromCompiledArchive:modelVersionInfo:compilerVersionInfo:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 32: +[MLLoader _loadModelWithClass:fromArchive:modelVersionInfo:compilerVersionInfo:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 45: +[MLModel modelWithContentsOfURL:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 46: @nonobjc MLModel.__allocating_init(contentsOf:configuration:) GKPersonalV2 frame 47: MDNA_GaitEncoder_v1_3.__allocating_init(contentsOf:configuration:) frame 48: MDNA_GaitEncoder_v1_3.__allocating_init(configuration:) frame 50: GaitModelInference.loadModel() frame 51: GaitModelInference.init() iOS version: Reproduced on iOS 26.4.

Compatibility issue of TensorFlow-metal with PyArrow
Overview I'm experiencing a critical issue where TensorFlow-metal and PyArrow seem to be incompatible when installed together in the same environment. Whenever both packages are present, TensorFlow crashes and the kernel dies during execution. Environment Details Environment Details macOS Version: 15.3.2 Mac Model: MacBook Pro Max M3 Python Version: 3.11 TensorFlow Version: 2.19 PyArrow Version: 19.0.0 Issue Description: When both TensorFlow-metal and PyArrow are installed in the same Python environment, any attempt to use TensorFlow results in immediate kernel crashes. The issue appears to be a compatibility problem between these two packages rather than a problem with either package individually. Steps to Reproduce Create a new Python environment: conda create -n tf-metal python=3.11 Install TensorFlow-metal: pip install tensorflow tensorflow-metal Install PyArrow: pip install pyarrow Run the following minimal example: # Create a simple model model = tf.keras.Sequential([ tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(2,)), tf.keras.layers.Dense(1) ]) model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss='mse') model.summary() # This works fine # Generate some dummy data X = np.random.random((100, 2)) y = np.random.random((100, 1)) # The crash happens exactly at this line model.fit(X, y, epochs=5, batch_size=32) # CRASH: Kernel dies here Result: Kernel crashes with no error message What I've Tried Reinstalling both packages in different orders Using different versions of both packages Creating isolated environments Checking system logs for additional error information The only workaround I've found is to use separate environments for each package, which isn't practical for my workflow as I need both libraries for my data processing and machine learning pipeline. Questions Has anyone else encountered this specific compatibility issue? Are there known workarounds that allow both packages to coexist? Is this a known issue that's being addressed in upcoming releases? Any insights, suggestions, or assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to provide any additional information that might help diagnose this problem. Thank you in advance for your help! Thank you in advance for your help!

Is there an API to check if a Core ML compiled model is already cached?
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm investigating Core ML model loading behavior and noticed that even when the compiled model path remains unchanged after an APP update, the first run still triggers an "uncached load" process. This seems to impact user experience with unnecessary delays. Question: Does Core ML provide any public API to check whether a compiled model (from a specific .mlmodelc path) is already cached in the system? If such API exists, we'd like to use it for pre-loading decision logic - only perform background pre-load when the model isn't cached. Has anyone encountered similar scenarios or found official solutions? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Difference between compiling a Model using CoreML and Swift-Transformers
Hello, I was successfully able to compile TKDKid1000/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v0.3-CoreML using Core ML, and it's working well. However, I’m now trying to compile the same model using Swift Transformers. With the limited documentation available on the swift-chat and Hugging Face repositories, I’m finding it difficult to understand the correct process for compiling a model via Swift Transformers. I attempted the following approach, but I’m fairly certain it’s not the recommended or correct method. Could someone guide me on the proper way to compile and use models like TinyLlama with Swift Transformers? Any official workflow, example, or best practice would be very helpful. Thanks in advance! This is the approach I have used: import Foundation import CoreML import Tokenizers @main struct HopeApp { static func main() async { print(" Running custom decoder loop...") do { let tokenizer = try await AutoTokenizer.from(pretrained: "PY007/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v0.3") var inputIds = tokenizer("this is the test of the prompt") print("🧠 Prompt token IDs:", inputIds) let model = try float16_model(configuration: .init()) let maxTokens = 30 for _ in 0..<maxTokens { let input = try MLMultiArray(shape: [1, 128], dataType: .int32) let mask = try MLMultiArray(shape: [1, 128], dataType: .int32) for i in 0..<inputIds.count { input[i] = NSNumber(value: inputIds[i]) mask[i] = 1 } for i in inputIds.count..<128 { input[i] = 0 mask[i] = 0 } let output = try model.prediction(input_ids: input, attention_mask: mask) let logits = output.logits // shape: [1, seqLen, vocabSize] let lastIndex = inputIds.count - 1 let lastLogitsStart = lastIndex * 32003 // vocab size = 32003 var nextToken = 0 var maxLogit: Float32 = -Float.greatestFiniteMagnitude for i in 0..<32003 { let logit = logits[lastLogitsStart + i].floatValue if logit > maxLogit { maxLogit = logit nextToken = i } } inputIds.append(nextToken) if nextToken == 32002 { break } let partialText = try await tokenizer.decode(tokens:inputIds) print(partialText) } } catch { print("❌ Error: \(error)") } } }

CoreML: Model loading utilities
Hello, We find that models sometimes load very fast (<< 1 second) and sometimes encounter very long load times (>> 120 seconds). During such slow load times, the model is being compiled. We would greatly appreciate the ability to check cache validity via CoreML and determine that we are about to encounter long load times so that we can mitigate and provide a good user experience. A secondary issue: sometimes the cache is corrupted (typically .mpsgraphpackage yielding Metal cold asserts). This yields load failures and OS errors that persist between launches, and we have to manually nuke the cache (~/Library/..../my-app/...) for the CoreML assets. A CoreML API for clearing caches and hardening from asserts across the load paths would be appreciated

Swipe-to-Type Broken in iOS 26 Beta 1 & 2 Siri Typing Mode
I’ve been testing silent Siri engagement via typing on iOS 18 and also on iOS 26 beta 1 and beta 2. While normal typing works perfectly in type-to-Siri mode, I’ve noticed that swipe-to-type gestures don’t work within Siri’s input field. Interestingly, you still feel the usual haptic feedback associated with swipe typing, but no text appears in the Siri text box. Swipe-to-type continues to work flawlessly in other apps like Messages and Notes, so this seems to be an issue specific to Siri’s typing input handler in these betas. Hopefully, it will be fixed in the next release because swipe typing is essential to my silent Siri workflow.

CoreML regression between macOS 26.0.1 and macOS 26.1 Beta causing scrambled tensor outputs
We’ve encountered what appears to be a CoreML regression between macOS 26.0.1 and macOS 26.1 Beta. In macOS 26.0.1, CoreML models run and produce correct results. However, in macOS 26.1 Beta, the same models produce scrambled or corrupted outputs, suggesting that tensor memory is being read or written incorrectly. The behavior is consistent with a low-level stride or pointer arithmetic issue — for example, using 16-bit strides on 32-bit data or other mismatches in tensor layout handling. Reproduction Install ON1 Photo RAW 2026 or ON1 Resize 2026 on macOS 26.0.1. Use the newest Highest Quality resize model, which is Stable Diffusion–based and runs through CoreML. Observe correct, high-quality results. Upgrade to macOS 26.1 Beta and run the same operation again. The output becomes visually scrambled or corrupted. We are also seeing similar issues with another Stable Diffusion UNet model that previously worked correctly on macOS 26.0.1. This suggests the regression may affect multiple diffusion-style architectures, likely due to a change in CoreML’s tensor stride, layout computation, or memory alignment between these versions. Notes The affected models are exported using standard CoreML conversion pipelines. No custom operators or third-party CoreML runtime layers are used. The issue reproduces consistently across multiple machines. It would be helpful to know if there were changes to CoreML’s tensor layout, precision handling, or MLCompute backend between macOS 26.0.1 and 26.1 Beta, or if this is a known regression in the current beta.

coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed
My iOS app supports iOS 18, and I’m using an encrypted CoreML model secured with a key generated from Xcode. Every few months (around every 3 months), the encrypted model fails to load for both me and my users. When I investigate, I find this error: coreml Fetching decryption key from server failed: noEntryFound("No records found"). Make sure the encryption key was generated with correct team ID To temporarily fix it, I delete the old key, generate a new one, re-encrypt the model, and submit an app update. This resolves the issue, but only for a while. This is a terrible experience for users and obviously not a sustainable solution. I want to understand: Why is this happening? Is there a known expiration or invalidation policy for CoreML encryption keys? How can I prevent this issue permanently? Any insights or official guidance would be really appreciated.

CoreML MLModelErrorModelDecryption error
Somehow I'm not able to decrypt our ml models on my machine. It does not matter: If I clean the build / delete the build folder If it's a local build or a build downloaded from our build server I log in as a different user I reboot my system (15.4.1 (24E263) I use a different network Re-generate the encryption keys. I'm the only one in my team confronted with this issue. Using the encrypted models works fine for everyone else. As soon as our application tries to load the bundled ml model the following error is logged and returned: Could not create persistent key blob for CD49E04F-1A42-4FBE-BFC1-2576B89EC233 : error=Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Failed to generate key request for CD49E04F-1A42-4FBE-BFC1-2576B89EC233 with error: -42908" Error code 9 points to a decryption issue, but offers no useful pointers and suggests that some sort of network request needs to be made in order to decrypt our models. /*! Core ML throws/returns this error when the framework encounters an error in the model decryption subsystem. The typical cause for this error is in the key server configuration and the client application cannot do much about it. For example, a model loading method will throw/return the error when it uses incorrect model decryption key. */ MLModelErrorModelDecryption API_AVAILABLE(macos(11.0), ios(14.0), watchos(7.0), tvos(14.0)) = 9, I could not find a reference to error '-42908' anywhere. ChatGPT just lied to me, as usual... How do can I resolve this or diagnose this further? Thanks.

Regression in EnumeratedShaped support in recent MacOS release
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.

Core ML model decryption on Intel chips
About the Core ML model encryption mention in:https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreml/encrypting-a-model-in-your-app When I encrypted the model, if the machine is M chip, the model will load perfectly. One the other hand, when I test the executable on an Intel chip macbook, there will be an error: Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Operation not supported on this platform." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Operation not supported on this platform.} Intel test machine is 2019 macbook air with CPU: Intel i5-8210Y, OS: 14.7.6 23H626, With Apple T2 Security Chip. The encrypted model do load on M2 and M4 macbook air. If the model is NOT encrypted, it will also load on the Intel test machine. I did not find in Core ML document that suggest if the encryption/decryption support Intel chips. May I check if the decryption indeed does NOT support Intel chip?

iOS 26 beta breaking my model
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.

SoundAnalysis built-in classifier fails in background (SNErrorCode.operationFailed)
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.

Is it possible to instantiate MLModel strictly from memory (Data) to support custom encryption?
We are trying to implement a custom encryption scheme for our Core ML models. Our goal is to bundle encrypted models, decrypt them into memory at runtime, and instantiate the MLModel without the unencrypted model file ever touching the disk. We have looked into the native apple encryption described here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreml/encrypting-a-model-in-your-app but it has limitations like not working on intel macs, without SIP, and doesn’t work loading from dylib. It seems like most of the Core ML APIs require a file path, there is MLModelAsset APIs but I think they just write a modelc back to disk when compiling but can’t find any information confirming that (also concerned that this seems to be an older API, and means we need to compile at runtime). I am aware that the native encryption will be much more secure but would like not to have the models in readable text on disk. Does anyone know if this is possible or any alternatives to try to obfuscate the Core ML models, thanks

Unable to load a quantized Qwen 1.7B model on an iPhone SE 3
I am trying to benchmark and see if the Qwen3 1.7B model can run in an iPhone SE 3 [4 GB RAM]. My core problem is - Even with weight quantization the SE 3 is not able to load into memory. What I've tried: I am converting a Torch model to the Core ML format using coremltools. I have tried the following combinations of quantization and context length 8 bit + 1024 8 bit + 2048 4 bit + 1024 4 bit + 2048 All the above quantizations are done with dynamic shape with the default being [1,1] in the hope that the whole context length does not get allocated in memory The 4-bit model is approximately 865MB on disk The 8-bit model is approximately 1.7 GB on disk During load: With the int4 quantization the memory spikes during intitial load a lot. Could this be because many operations are converted to int8 or fp16 as core ML does not perform operations natively on int4? With int8 on the profiler the memory does not go above 2 GB (only 900 MB) but it is still not able to load as it shows the following error. 2GB is the limit where jetsam kills the app for the iPhone SE 3 E5RT: Error(s) occurred compiling MIL to BNNS graph: [CreateBnnsGraphProgramFromMIL]: BNNS Graph Compile: failed to preallocate file with error: No space left on device for path: /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/ 5B8BB7D2-06A6-4BAE-A042-407B6D805E7C/Library/Caches /com.tss.qwen3-coreml/ com.apple.e5rt.e5bundlecache/ 23A341/<long key>.tmp.12586_4362093968.bundle/ H14.bundle/main/main_bnns/bnns_program.bnnsir Some online sources have suggested activation quantization but I am unsure if that will have any impact on loading [as the spike is during load and not inference] The model spec also suggests that there is no dequantization happening (for e.g from 4 bit -> fp16) So I had couple of queries: Has anyone faced similar issues? What could be the reasons for the temporary memory spike during LOAD What are approaches that can be adopted to deal with this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

CoreML MLE5ProgramLibrary AOT recompilation hangs/crashes on iOS 26.4 — C++ exception in espresso IR compiler bypasses Swift error handling
Area: CoreML / Machine Learning Describe the issue: On iOS 26.4, calling MLModel(contentsOf:configuration:) to load an .mlpackage model hangs indefinitely and eventually kills the app via watchdog. The same model loads and runs inference successfully in under 1 second on iOS 26.3.1. The hang occurs inside eort_eo_compiler_compile_from_ir_program (espresso) during on-device AOT recompilation triggered by MLE5ProgramLibraryOnDeviceAOTCompilationImpl createProgramLibraryHandleWithRespecialization:error:. A C++ exception (__cxa_throw) is thrown inside libBNNS.dylib during the exception unwind, which then hangs inside __cxxabiv1::dyn_cast_slow and __class_type_info::search_below_dst. Swift's try/catch does not catch this — the exception originates in C++ and the process hangs rather than terminating cleanly. Setting config.computeUnits = .cpuOnly does not resolve the issue. MLE5ProgramLibrary initialises as shared infrastructure regardless of compute units. Steps to reproduce: Create an app with an .mlpackage CoreML model using the MLE5/espresso backend Call MLModel(contentsOf: modelURL, configuration: config) at runtime Run on a device on iOS 26.3.1 — loads successfully in <1 second Update device to iOS 26.4 — hangs indefinitely, app killed by watchdog after 60–745 seconds Expected behaviour: Model loads successfully, or throws a catchable Swift error on failure. Actual behaviour: Process hangs in MLE5ProgramLibrary.lazyInitQueue. App killed by watchdog. No Swift error thrown. Full stack trace at point of hang: Thread 1 Queue: com.apple.coreml.MLE5ProgramLibrary.lazyInitQueue (serial) frame 0: __cxxabiv1::__class_type_info::search_below_dst libc++abi.dylib frame 1: __cxxabiv1::(anonymous namespace)::dyn_cast_slow libc++abi.dylib frame 2: ___lldb_unnamed_symbol_23ab44dd4 libBNNS.dylib frame 23: eort_eo_compiler_compile_from_ir_program espresso frame 24: -[MLE5ProgramLibraryOnDeviceAOTCompilationImpl createProgramLibraryHandleWithRespecialization:error:] CoreML frame 25: -[MLE5ProgramLibrary _programLibraryHandleWithForceRespecialization:error:] CoreML frame 26: __44-[MLE5ProgramLibrary prepareAndReturnError:]_block_invoke CoreML frame 27: _dispatch_client_callout libdispatch.dylib frame 28: _dispatch_lane_barrier_sync_invoke_and_complete libdispatch.dylib frame 29: -[MLE5ProgramLibrary prepareAndReturnError:] CoreML frame 30: -[MLE5Engine initWithContainer:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 31: +[MLE5Engine loadModelFromCompiledArchive:modelVersionInfo:compilerVersionInfo:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 32: +[MLLoader _loadModelWithClass:fromArchive:modelVersionInfo:compilerVersionInfo:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 45: +[MLModel modelWithContentsOfURL:configuration:error:] CoreML frame 46: @nonobjc MLModel.__allocating_init(contentsOf:configuration:) GKPersonalV2 frame 47: MDNA_GaitEncoder_v1_3.__allocating_init(contentsOf:configuration:) frame 48: MDNA_GaitEncoder_v1_3.__allocating_init(configuration:) frame 50: GaitModelInference.loadModel() frame 51: GaitModelInference.init() iOS version: Reproduced on iOS 26.4.

Compatibility issue of TensorFlow-metal with PyArrow
Overview I'm experiencing a critical issue where TensorFlow-metal and PyArrow seem to be incompatible when installed together in the same environment. Whenever both packages are present, TensorFlow crashes and the kernel dies during execution. Environment Details Environment Details macOS Version: 15.3.2 Mac Model: MacBook Pro Max M3 Python Version: 3.11 TensorFlow Version: 2.19 PyArrow Version: 19.0.0 Issue Description: When both TensorFlow-metal and PyArrow are installed in the same Python environment, any attempt to use TensorFlow results in immediate kernel crashes. The issue appears to be a compatibility problem between these two packages rather than a problem with either package individually. Steps to Reproduce Create a new Python environment: conda create -n tf-metal python=3.11 Install TensorFlow-metal: pip install tensorflow tensorflow-metal Install PyArrow: pip install pyarrow Run the following minimal example: # Create a simple model model = tf.keras.Sequential([ tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(2,)), tf.keras.layers.Dense(1) ]) model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss='mse') model.summary() # This works fine # Generate some dummy data X = np.random.random((100, 2)) y = np.random.random((100, 1)) # The crash happens exactly at this line model.fit(X, y, epochs=5, batch_size=32) # CRASH: Kernel dies here Result: Kernel crashes with no error message What I've Tried Reinstalling both packages in different orders Using different versions of both packages Creating isolated environments Checking system logs for additional error information The only workaround I've found is to use separate environments for each package, which isn't practical for my workflow as I need both libraries for my data processing and machine learning pipeline. Questions Has anyone else encountered this specific compatibility issue? Are there known workarounds that allow both packages to coexist? Is this a known issue that's being addressed in upcoming releases? Any insights, suggestions, or assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to provide any additional information that might help diagnose this problem. Thank you in advance for your help! Thank you in advance for your help!

Is there an API to check if a Core ML compiled model is already cached?
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm investigating Core ML model loading behavior and noticed that even when the compiled model path remains unchanged after an APP update, the first run still triggers an "uncached load" process. This seems to impact user experience with unnecessary delays. Question: Does Core ML provide any public API to check whether a compiled model (from a specific .mlmodelc path) is already cached in the system? If such API exists, we'd like to use it for pre-loading decision logic - only perform background pre-load when the model isn't cached. Has anyone encountered similar scenarios or found official solutions? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Difference between compiling a Model using CoreML and Swift-Transformers
Hello, I was successfully able to compile TKDKid1000/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v0.3-CoreML using Core ML, and it's working well. However, I’m now trying to compile the same model using Swift Transformers. With the limited documentation available on the swift-chat and Hugging Face repositories, I’m finding it difficult to understand the correct process for compiling a model via Swift Transformers. I attempted the following approach, but I’m fairly certain it’s not the recommended or correct method. Could someone guide me on the proper way to compile and use models like TinyLlama with Swift Transformers? Any official workflow, example, or best practice would be very helpful. Thanks in advance! This is the approach I have used: import Foundation import CoreML import Tokenizers @main struct HopeApp { static func main() async { print(" Running custom decoder loop...") do { let tokenizer = try await AutoTokenizer.from(pretrained: "PY007/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v0.3") var inputIds = tokenizer("this is the test of the prompt") print("🧠 Prompt token IDs:", inputIds) let model = try float16_model(configuration: .init()) let maxTokens = 30 for _ in 0..<maxTokens { let input = try MLMultiArray(shape: [1, 128], dataType: .int32) let mask = try MLMultiArray(shape: [1, 128], dataType: .int32) for i in 0..<inputIds.count { input[i] = NSNumber(value: inputIds[i]) mask[i] = 1 } for i in inputIds.count..<128 { input[i] = 0 mask[i] = 0 } let output = try model.prediction(input_ids: input, attention_mask: mask) let logits = output.logits // shape: [1, seqLen, vocabSize] let lastIndex = inputIds.count - 1 let lastLogitsStart = lastIndex * 32003 // vocab size = 32003 var nextToken = 0 var maxLogit: Float32 = -Float.greatestFiniteMagnitude for i in 0..<32003 { let logit = logits[lastLogitsStart + i].floatValue if logit > maxLogit { maxLogit = logit nextToken = i } } inputIds.append(nextToken) if nextToken == 32002 { break } let partialText = try await tokenizer.decode(tokens:inputIds) print(partialText) } } catch { print("❌ Error: \(error)") } } }

CoreML: Model loading utilities
Hello, We find that models sometimes load very fast (<< 1 second) and sometimes encounter very long load times (>> 120 seconds). During such slow load times, the model is being compiled. We would greatly appreciate the ability to check cache validity via CoreML and determine that we are about to encounter long load times so that we can mitigate and provide a good user experience. A secondary issue: sometimes the cache is corrupted (typically .mpsgraphpackage yielding Metal cold asserts). This yields load failures and OS errors that persist between launches, and we have to manually nuke the cache (~/Library/..../my-app/...) for the CoreML assets. A CoreML API for clearing caches and hardening from asserts across the load paths would be appreciated

Swipe-to-Type Broken in iOS 26 Beta 1 & 2 Siri Typing Mode
I’ve been testing silent Siri engagement via typing on iOS 18 and also on iOS 26 beta 1 and beta 2. While normal typing works perfectly in type-to-Siri mode, I’ve noticed that swipe-to-type gestures don’t work within Siri’s input field. Interestingly, you still feel the usual haptic feedback associated with swipe typing, but no text appears in the Siri text box. Swipe-to-type continues to work flawlessly in other apps like Messages and Notes, so this seems to be an issue specific to Siri’s typing input handler in these betas. Hopefully, it will be fixed in the next release because swipe typing is essential to my silent Siri workflow.

Crash inside of Vision predictWithCVPixelBuffer - Crashed: com.apple.VN.detectorSyncTasksQueue.VNCoreMLTransformer
Hello, We have been encountering a persistent crash in our application, which is deployed exclusively on iPad devices. The crash occurs in the following code block: let requestHandler = ImageRequestHandler(paddedImage) var request = CoreMLRequest(model: model) request.cropAndScaleAction = .scaleToFit let results = try await requestHandler.perform(request) The client using this code is wrapped inside an actor, following Swift concurrency principles. The issue has been consistently reproduced across multiple iPadOS versions, including: iPad OS - 18.4.0 iPad OS - 18.4.1 iPad OS - 18.5.0 This is the crash log - Crashed: com.apple.VN.detectorSyncTasksQueue.VNCoreMLTransformer 0 libobjc.A.dylib 0x7b98 objc_retain + 16 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x7b98 objc_retain_x0 + 16 2 libobjc.A.dylib 0xbf18 objc_getProperty + 100 3 Vision 0x326300 -[VNCoreMLModel predictWithCVPixelBuffer:options:error:] + 148 4 Vision 0x3273b0 -[VNCoreMLTransformer processRegionOfInterest:croppedPixelBuffer:options:qosClass:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:] + 748 5 Vision 0x2ccdcc __119-[VNDetector internalProcessUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:]_block_invoke_5 + 132 6 Vision 0x14600 VNExecuteBlock + 80 7 Vision 0x14580 __76+[VNDetector runSuccessReportingBlockSynchronously:detector:qosClass:error:]_block_invoke + 56 8 libdispatch.dylib 0x6c98 _dispatch_block_sync_invoke + 240 9 libdispatch.dylib 0x1b584 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 10 libdispatch.dylib 0x11728 _dispatch_lane_barrier_sync_invoke_and_complete + 56 11 libdispatch.dylib 0x7fac _dispatch_sync_block_with_privdata + 452 12 Vision 0x14110 -[VNControlledCapacityTasksQueue dispatchSyncByPreservingQueueCapacity:] + 60 13 Vision 0x13ffc +[VNDetector runSuccessReportingBlockSynchronously:detector:qosClass:error:] + 324 14 Vision 0x2ccc80 __119-[VNDetector internalProcessUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:]_block_invoke_4 + 336 15 Vision 0x14600 VNExecuteBlock + 80 16 Vision 0x2cc98c __119-[VNDetector internalProcessUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:]_block_invoke_3 + 256 17 libdispatch.dylib 0x1b584 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 18 libdispatch.dylib 0x6ab0 _dispatch_block_invoke_direct + 284 19 Vision 0x2cc454 -[VNDetector internalProcessUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:] + 632 20 Vision 0x2cd14c __111-[VNDetector processUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:]_block_invoke + 124 21 Vision 0x14600 VNExecuteBlock + 80 22 Vision 0x2ccfbc -[VNDetector processUsingQualityOfServiceClass:options:regionOfInterest:warningRecorder:error:progressHandler:] + 340 23 Vision 0x125410 __swift_memcpy112_8 + 4852 24 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x5c134 swift::runJobInEstablishedExecutorContext(swift::Job*) + 292 25 libswift_Concurrency.dylib 0x5d5c8 swift_job_runImpl(swift::Job*, swift::SerialExecutorRef) + 156 26 libdispatch.dylib 0x13db0 _dispatch_root_queue_drain + 364 27 libdispatch.dylib 0x1454c _dispatch_worker_thread2 + 156 28 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x9d0 _pthread_wqthread + 232 29 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0xaac start_wqthread + 8 We found an issue similar to us - https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/770771. But the crash logs are quite different, we believe this warrants further investigation to better understand the root cause and potential mitigation strategies. Please let us know if any additional information would help diagnose this issue.
