I couldn't find information about this in the documentation. Could someone clarify if this API is available and how to access it?

How do I test the new RecognizeDocumentRequest API. Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-GCNsXdKzM I am running Xcode Beta, however I only have one primary device that I cannot install beta software on. Please provide a strategy for testing. Will simulator work? The new capability is critical to my application, just what I need for structuring document scans and extraction. Thank you.

Are there any details available on how Xcode 26 connects to third party model providers? For example, can Xcode only use OpenAI compatible API endpoints?

I'm seeing this error a lot in my console log of my iPhone 15 Pro (Apple Intelligence enabled): com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog sync: connection error during call: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.modelcatalog.catalog was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction.} reached max num connection attempts: 1 Are there entitlements / permissions I need to enable in Xcode that I forgot to do? Code example Here's how I'm initializing the language model session: private func setupLanguageModelSession() { if #available(iOS 26.0, *) { let instructions = """ my instructions """ do { languageModelSession = try LanguageModelSession(instructions: instructions) print("Foundation Models language model session initialized") } catch { print("Error creating language model session: \(error)") languageModelSession = nil } } else { print("Device does not support Foundation Models (requires iOS 26.0+)") languageModelSession = nil } }

Is there anywhere we can reference error codes? I'm getting this error: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession.GenerationError error 4.)" and I have no idea of what it means or what to attempt to fix.

Has Apple made any commitment to versioning the Foundation Models on device? What if you build a feature that works great on 26.0 but they change the model or guardrails in 26.1 and it breaks your feature, is your only recourse filing Feedback or pulling the feature from the app? Will there be a way to specify a model version like in all of the server based LLM provider APIs? If not, sounds risky to build on.

v3 was released 2 years ago but developers are unable to convert models created with Keras v3 to CoreML

I'm using Numbers to build a spreadsheet that I'm exporting as a CSV. I then import this file into Create ML to train a word tagger model. Everything has been working fine for all the models I've trained so far, but now I'm coming across a use case that has been breaking the import process: commas within the training data. This is a case that none of Apple's examples show. My project takes Navajo text that has been tokenized by syllables and labels the parts-of-speech. Case that works... Raw text: Naaltsoos yídéeshtah. Tokens column: Naal,tsoos, ,yí,déesh,tah,. Labels column: NObj,NObj,Space,Verb,Verb,VStem,Punct Case that breaks... Raw text: óola, béésh łigaii, tłʼoh naadą́ą́ʼ, wáin, akʼah, dóó á,shįįh Tokens column with tokenized text (commas quoted): óo,la,",", ,béésh, ,łi,gaii,",", ,tłʼoh, ,naa,dą́ą́ʼ,",", ,wáin,",", ,a,kʼah,",", ,dóó, ,á,shįįh (Create ML reports mismatched columns) Tokens column with tokenized text (commas escaped): óo,la,\,, ,béésh, ,łi,gaii,\,, ,tłʼoh, ,naa,dą́ą́ʼ,\,, ,wáin,\,, ,a,kʼah,\,, ,dóó, ,á,shįįh (Create ML reports mismatched columns) Tokens column with tokenized text (commas escape-quoted): óo,la,\",\", ,béésh, ,łi,gaii,\",\", ,tłʼoh, ,naa,dą́ą́ʼ,\",\", ,wáin,\",\", ,a,kʼah,\",\", ,dóó, ,á,shįįh (record not detected by Create ML) Tokens column with tokenized text (commas escape-quoted): óo,la,"","", ,béésh, ,łi,gaii,"","", ,tłʼoh, ,naa,dą́ą́ʼ,"","", ,wáin,"","", ,a,kʼah,"","", ,dóó, ,á,shįįh (Create ML reports mismatched columns) Labels column: NSub,NSub,Punct,Space,NSub,Space,NSub,NSub,Punct,Space,NSub,Space,NSub,NSub,Punct,Space,NSub,Punct,Space,NSub,NSub,Punct,Space,Conj,Space,NSub,NSub Sample From Spreadsheet Solution Needed It's simple enough to escape commas within CSV files, but the format needed by Create ML essentially combines entire CSV records into single columns, so I'm ending up needing a CSV record that contains a mixture of commas to use for parsing and ones to use as character literals. That's where this gets complicated. For this particular use case (which seems like it would frequently arise when training a word tagger model), how should I properly escape a comma literal?

In an under-development MacOS & iOS app, I need to identify various measurements from OCR'ed text: length, weight, counts per inch, area, percentage. The unit type (e.g. UnitLength) needs to be identified as well as the measurement's unit (e.g. .inches) in order to convert the measurement to the app's internal standard (e.g. centimetres), the value of which is stored the relevant CoreData entity. The use of NLTagger and NLTokenizer is problematic because of the various representations of the measurements: e.g. "50g.", "50 g", "50 grams", "1 3/4 oz." Currently, I use a bespoke algorithm based on String contains and step-wise evaluation of characters, which is reasonably accurate but requires frequent updating as further representations are detected. I'm aware of the Python SpaCy model being capable of NER Measurement recognition, but am reluctant to incorporate a Python-based solution into a production app. (ref [https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/30092]) My preference is for an open-source NER Measurement model that can be used as, or converted to, some form of a Swift compatible Machine Learning model. Does anyone know of such a model?

I'm developing a tennis ball tracking feature using Vision Framework in Swift, specifically utilizing VNDetectedObjectObservation and VNTrackObjectRequest. Occasionally (but not always), I receive the following runtime error: Failed to perform SequenceRequest: Error Domain=com.apple.Vision Code=9 "Internal error: unexpected tracked object bounding box size" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Internal error: unexpected tracked object bounding box size} From my investigation, I suspect the issue arises when the bounding box from the initial observation (VNDetectedObjectObservation) is too small. However, Apple's documentation doesn't clearly define the minimum bounding box size that's considered valid by VNTrackObjectRequest. Could someone clarify: What is the minimum acceptable bounding box width and height (normalized) that Vision Framework's VNTrackObjectRequest expects? Is there any recommended practice or official guidance for bounding box size validation before creating a tracking request? This information would be extremely helpful to reliably avoid this internal error. Thank you!

Posting a follow up question after the WWDC 2025 Machine Learning AI & Frameworks Group Lab on June 12. In regards to the on-device API of any of the AI frameworks (foundation model, vision framework, ect.), is there a response condition or path where the API outsources it's input to ChatGPT if the user has allowed this like Siri does? Ignore this if it's a no: is this handled behind the scenes or by the developer?

The WWDC25: Explore large language models on Apple silicon with MLX video talks about using your own data to fine-tune a large language model. But the video doesn't explain what kind of data can be used. The video just shows the command to use and how to point to the data folder. Can I use PDFs, Word documents, Markdown files to train the model? Are there any code examples on GitHub that demonstrate how to do this?

No matter what, the LanguageModelSession always returns very lengthy / verbose responses. I set the maximumResponseTokens option to various small numbers but it doesn't appear to have any effect. I've even used this instructions format to keep responses between 3-8 words but it returns multiple paragraphs. Is there a way to manage LLM response length? Thanks.

Download the Foundation Models Adaptor Training Toolkit Hi, after I clicked on the download button, I was redirected to this page https://developer.apple.com and did not download the toolkit.

Hi all, I am interested in unlocking unique applications with the new foundational models. I have a few questions regarding the availability of the following features: Image Input: The update in June 2025 mentions "image" 44 times (https://machinelearning.apple.com/research/apple-foundation-models-2025-updates) - however I can't seem to find any information about having images as the input/prompt for the foundational models. When will this be available? I understand that there are existing Vision ML APIs, but I want image input into a multimodal on-device LLM (VLM) instead for features like "Which player is holding the ball in the image", etc (image understanding) Cloud Foundational Model - when will this be available? Thanks! Clement :)

Hello! I'm following the Foundation Models adapter training guide (https://developer.apple.com/apple-intelligence/foundation-models-adapter/) on my NVIDIA DGX Spark box. I'm able to train on my own data but the example notebook fails when I try to export the artifact as an fmadapter. I get the following error for the code block I'm trying to run. I haven't touched any of the code in the export folder. I tried exporting it on my Mac too and got the same error as well (given below). Would appreciate some more clarity around this. Thank you.

I'm on Tahoe 26.1 / M3 Macbook Air. I'm using VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest as properly as possible, as in the minimal command line program attached below. For some reason, I always get: MLE5Engine is disabled through the configuration printed. I couldn't find any notes on developer docs saying that VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest can not use the Apple Neural Engine. I'm assuming there is something wrong with my code however I wasn't able to find any remarks from documentation where it might be. I wasn't able to find the above error message online either. I would appreciate your help a lot and thank you in advance. The code below accesses the video from AVCaptureDevice.DeviceType.builtInWideAngleCamera. Currently it directly chooses the 0th format which has the largest resolution (Full HD on my M3 MBA) and "4:2:0" color "v" reduced color component spectrum encoding ("420v"). After accessing video, it performs a VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest. It prints "VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest completion Handler called" many times, then prints the error message above, then continues printing "VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest completion Handler called" until the user quits it. To run it in Xcode, File > New project > Mac command line tool. Pasting the code below, then click on the root file > Targets > Signing & Capabilities > Hardened Runtime > Resource Access > Camera. A possible explanation could be that either Apple's internal CoreML code for this function works on GPU/CPU only or it doesn't accept 420v as supplied by the Macbook Air camera import AVKit import Vision var videoDataOutput: AVCaptureVideoDataOutput = AVCaptureVideoDataOutput() var detectionRequests: [VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest]? var videoDataOutputQueue: DispatchQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "queue") class XYZ: /*NSViewController or NSObject*/NSObject, AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate { func viewDidLoad() { //super.viewDidLoad() let session = AVCaptureSession() let inputDevice = try! self.configureFrontCamera(for: session) self.configureVideoDataOutput(for: inputDevice.device, resolution: inputDevice.resolution, captureSession: session) self.prepareVisionRequest() session.startRunning() } fileprivate func highestResolution420Format(for device: AVCaptureDevice) -> (format: AVCaptureDevice.Format, resolution: CGSize)? { let deviceFormat = device.formats[0] print(deviceFormat) let dims = CMVideoFormatDescriptionGetDimensions(deviceFormat.formatDescription) let resolution = CGSize(width: CGFloat(dims.width), height: CGFloat(dims.height)) return (deviceFormat, resolution) } fileprivate func configureFrontCamera(for captureSession: AVCaptureSession) throws -> (device: AVCaptureDevice, resolution: CGSize) { let deviceDiscoverySession = AVCaptureDevice.DiscoverySession(deviceTypes: [AVCaptureDevice.DeviceType.builtInWideAngleCamera], mediaType: .video, position: AVCaptureDevice.Position.unspecified) let device = deviceDiscoverySession.devices.first! let deviceInput = try!

Hello, I am interested in using jax-metal to train ML models using Apple Silicon. I understand this is experimental. After installing jax-metal according to https://developer.apple.com/metal/jax/, my python code fails with the following error JaxRuntimeError: UNKNOWN: -:0:0: error: unknown attribute code: 22 -:0:0: note: in bytecode version 6 produced by: StableHLO_v1.12.1 My issue is identical to the one reported here https://github.com/jax-ml/jax/issues/26968#issuecomment-2733120325, and is fixed by pinning to jax-metal 0.1.1., jax 0.5.0 and jaxlib 0.5.0. Thank you!

I am new to Swift and iOS development, and I have a question about video capture performance. Is it possible to capture video at a resolution of 4032×3024 while simultaneously running a vision/ML model on the video stream (e.g., using Vision or CoreML)? I want to know: whether iOS devices support capturing video at that resolution, whether the frame rate drops significantly at that scale, and whether it is practical to run a Vision/ML model in real-time while recording at such a high resolution. If anyone has experience with high-resolution AVCaptureSession setups or combining them with real-time ML processing, I would really appreciate guidance or sample code.
