Hello, I've been dealing with a puzzling issue for some time now, and I’m hoping someone here might have insights or suggestions. The Problem: We’re observing an occasional crash in our app that seems to originate from the Vision framework. Frequency: It happens randomly, after many successful executions of the same code, hard to tell how long the app was working, but in some cases app could run for like a month without any issues. Devices: The issue doesn't seem device-dependent (we’ve seen it on various iPad models). OS Versions: The crashes started occurring with iOS 18.0.1 and are still present in 18.1 and 18.1.1. What I suspected: The crash logs point to a potential data race within the Vision framework. The relevant section of the code where the crash happens: guard let cgImage = image.cgImage else { throw ... } let request = VNCoreMLRequest(model: visionModel) try VNImageRequestHandler(cgImage: cgImage).perform([request]) // <- the line causing the crash Since the code is rather simple, I'm not sure what else there could be missing here. The images sent here are uniform (fixed size). Model is loaded and working, the crash occurs random after a period of time and the call worked correctly many times. Also, the model variable is not an optional. Here is the crash log: libobjc.A objc_exception_throw CoreFoundation -[NSMutableArray removeObjectsAtIndexes:] Vision -[VNWeakTypeWrapperCollection _enumerateObjectsDroppingWeakZeroedObjects:usingBlock:] Vision -[VNWeakTypeWrapperCollection addObject:droppingWeakZeroedObjects:] Vision -[VNSession initWithCachingBehavior:] Vision -[VNCoreMLTransformer initWithOptions:model:error:] Vision -[VNCoreMLRequest internalPerformRevision:inContext:error:] Vision -[VNRequest performInContext:error:] Vision -[VNRequestPerformer _performOrderedRequests:inContext:error:] Vision -[VNRequestPerformer _performRequests:onBehalfOfRequest:inContext:error:] Vision -[VNImageRequestHandler performRequests:gatheredForensics:error:] OurApp ModelWrapper.perform And I'm a bit lost at this point, I've tried everything I could image so far. I've tried to putting a symbolic breakpoint in the removeObjectsAtIndexes to check if some library (e.g. crash reporter) we use didn't do some implementation swap. There was none, and if anything did some method swizzling, I'd expect that to show in the stack trace before the original code would be called. I did peek into the previous functions and I've noticed a lock used in one of the Vision methods, so in my understanding any data race in this code shouldn't be possible at all. I've also put breakpoints in the NSLock variants, to check for swizzling/override with a category and possibly messing the locking - again, nothing was there. There is also another model that is running on a separate queue, but after seeing the line with the locking in the debugger, it doesn't seem to me like this could cause a problem, at least not in this specific spot. Is there something I'm missing here, or something I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance for your help!

The What’s New in Create ML session in WWDC24 went into great depth with time-series forecasting models (beginning at: 15:14) and mentioned these new models, capabilities, and tools for iOS 18. So, far, all I can find is API documentation. I don’t see any other session in WWDC24 covering these new time-series forecasting Create ML features. Is there more substance/documentation on how to use these with Create ML? Maybe I am looking in the wrong place but I am fairly new with ML. Are there any food truck / donut shop demo/sample code like in the video? It is of great interest to get ahead of the curve on this within business applications that may take advantage of this with inventory / ordering data.

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.

I am excited to try Foundation Models during WWDC, but it doesn't work at all for me. When running on my iPad Pro M4 with iPadOS 26 seed 1, I get the following error even when running the simplest query: let prompt = "How are you?" let stream = session.streamResponse(to: prompt) for try await partial in stream { self.answer = partial self.resultString = partial } In the Xcode console, I see the following error: assetsUnavailable(FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession.GenerationError.Context(debugDescription: "Model is unavailable", underlyingErrors: [])) I have verified that Apple Intelligence is enabled on my iPad. Any tips on how can I get it working? I have also submitted this feedback: FB17896752

Hi, I am developing an iOS application that utilizes Apple’s Foundation Models to perform certain summarization tasks. I would like to understand whether user data is transferred to Private Cloud Compute (PCC) in cases where the computation cannot be performed entirely on-device. This information is critical for our internal security and compliance reviews. I would appreciate your clarification on this matter. Thank you.

I'm attempting to run a basic Foundation Model prototype in Xcode 26, but I'm getting the error below, using the iPhone 16 simulator with iOS 26. Should these models be working yet? Do I need to be running macOS 26 for these to work? (I hope that's not it) Error: Passing along Model Catalog error: Error Domain=com.apple.UnifiedAssetFramework Code=5000 "There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides} in response to ExecuteRequest Playground to reproduce: #Playground { let session = LanguageModelSession() do { let response = try await session.respond(to: "What's happening?") } catch { let error = error } }

In an App Playground Xcode project there is no Targets menu in the UI, When I try use the model, it says the model is not in scope. When I did it in a regular project it automatically generated a Swift Class and had no erorrs because it had a target but I see no place to add a target on an App playground.

Greetings! I was trying to get a response from the LanguageModelSession but I just keep getting the following: Error getting response: Model Catalog error: Error Domain=com.apple.UnifiedAssetFramework Code=5000 "There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides} This occurs both in macOS 15.5 running the new Xcode beta with an iOS 26 simulator, and also on a macOS 26 with Xcode beta. The simulators are both Pro iPhone 16s. I was wondering if anyone had any advice?

I am using macOS Tahoe on Xcode 26.

Hi For certain tasks, such as qualitative analysis or tagging, it is advisable to provide the AI with the option to respond with a joker / wild card answer when it encounters difficulties in tagging or scoring. For instance, you can include this slot in the prompt as follows: output must be "not data to score" when there isn't information to score. In the absence of these types of slots, AI trends to provide a solution even when there is insufficient information. Foundations Models are told to be prompted with simple prompts. I wonder: Is recommended keep this slot though adds verbose complexity? Is the best place the comment of a guided attribute? other tips? Another use case is when you want the AI to be tied to the information provided in the prompt and not take information from its data set. What is the best approach to this purpose? Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Hi everyone, I've been struggling for a few weeks to integrate my Core ML Image Classifier model into my .swiftpm project, and I’m hoping someone can help. Here’s what I’ve done so far: I converted my .mlmodel file to .mlmodelc manually via the terminal. In my Package.swift file, I tried both "copy" and "process" options for the resource. The issues I’m facing: When using "process", Xcode gives me the error: "multiple resources named 'coremldata.bin' in target 'AppModule'." When using "copy", the app runs, but the model doesn’t work, and the terminal shows: "A valid manifest does not exist at path: .../Manifest.json." I even tried creating a Manifest.json manually to test, but this led to more errors, such as: "File format version must be in the form of major.minor.patch." "Failed to look up root model." To check if the problem was specific to my model, I tested other Core ML models in the same setup, but none of them worked either. I feel stuck and unsure of how to resolve these issues. Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)

I was able to open a new project and play around with the Foundation Model, but when I dropped this class in a production app (with a lot of files) I'm running into Safety Guardrail errors for this very small prompt. Specifically it's "Safety guardrail was triggered after consecutive failures during streaming." Does it have something to do with the size of the app? I don't know what else to try to get it to work? import FoundationModels import Playgrounds @available(iOS 26.0, *) #Playground { Task { do { let session = LanguageModelSession() let prompt = "Write a short story about a talking cat." let response = try await session.respond(to: prompt) print(response) } catch { print("Error: \(error)") } } }

I am watching a few WWDC sessions on Foundation Model and its usage and it looks pretty cool. I was wondering if it is possible to perform RAG on the user documents on the devices and entuallly on iCloud... Let's say I have a lot of pages documents about me and I want the Foundation model to access those information on the documents to answer questions about me that can be retrieved from the documents. How can this be done ? Thanks

I am working on a CoreML image classification model in Xcode, which takes a 299x299 image and attempts to classify hand-drawn sketches. The model was trained using Create ML and works perfectly when tested in the Create ML preview. However, when used in Xcode application, the classification results are incorrect. I have already verified that the image is correctly resized to 299x299 pixels, matching the input size of the model. The classification always returns incorrect results, even when using images that were correctly classified during training. I originally used kCVPixelFormatType_32ARGB, but I read that CoreML typically expects BGRA format. I updated my conversion function to use kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA and CGImageAlphaInfo.premultipliedLast, but the issue persists. This makes me suspect that either the pixel format is still incorrect or that something went wrong during the .mlmodelc compilation.

Hi, I'm looking for the best way to use MLX models, particularly those I've fine-tuned, within a React Native application on iOS devices. Is there a recommended integration path or specific API for bridging MLX's capabilities to React Native for deployment on iPhones and iPads?

Is anything configurable for LanguageModelSession.Guardrails besides the default? I'm prototyping a camping app, and it's constantly slamming into guardrail errors when I use the new foundation model interface. Any subjects relating to fishing, survival, etc. won't generate. For example the prompt "How can I kill deer ticks using a clothing treatment?" returns a generation error. The results that I get are great when it works, but so far the local model sessions are extremely unreliable.

Is there any way to ensure iOS apps we develop using Foundation Models can only be purchasable/downloadable on App Store by folks with capable devices? I would've thought there would be a Required Capabilities that App Store would hook into, but I don't seem to see it in the documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information-property-list/uirequireddevicecapabilities The closest seems to be iphone-performance-gaming-tier as that seems to target all M1 and above chips on iPhone & iPad. There is an ipad-minimum-performance-m1 that would more reasonably seem to ensure Foundation Models is likely available, but that doesn't help with iPhone. So far, it seems the only path would be to set Minimum Deployment to iOS 26 and add iphone-performance-gaming-tier as a required capability, but I'm a bit worried that capability might diverge in the future from what's Foundation Model / Apple Intelligence capable. While I understand for the majority of apps they'll want to just selectively add in Apple Intelligence features and so can be usable by folks whose devices don't support it, the app experience I'm building doesn't make sense without the Foundation Models being available and I'd rather not have a large number of users downloading the app to be told "Sorry, you're not Apple Intelligence capable"

Hello, I was trying to test out Foundation Model however it says Model assets are unavailable. I got my MacBook M1 back in China when i was living there. is this due to region lock?
