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
}
}

I'm building a new feature with Visual Intelligence framework. My implementation for IndexedEntity and IntentValueQuery worked as expected and I can see a list of objects in visual search result.
However, my OpenIntent doesn't work. When I tap on the object, I got a message on screen "Sorry somethinf went wrong ...". and the breakpoint in perform() is never triggered.
Things I've tried:
I added @MainActor before perform(), this didn't change anything
I set static let openAppWhenRun: Bool = true and static var supportedModes: IntentModes = [.foreground(.immediate)], still nothing
I created a different intent for the see more button at the end of feed. This AppIntent with schema: .visualIntelligence.semanticContentSearch worked, perform() is executed

On the October 10/28 release day of Apple Intelligence I opted in. My iPhone and iPad immediately went to "waitlist" and within 2 to 3 hours were ready to initialize Apple Intelligence.
My MacBook Pro 14" with M3 Pro processor and 18 GB or RAM has been stuck on "preparing" since release day (6 days now).
I've tried numerous workarounds that I found on forums as well as talking to Apple support, who basically had me repeat the workarounds that I found on forums.
I've tried changing region to an area that does not have Apple Intelligence and then back to the US, I've changed Siri language to an unsupported one and back to a supported one, and I have tried disabling background/startup Apps, I've disabled and reenabled Siri. Oh, I've restarted a bunch and let the Mac alone for hours at a time.
I've noticed that my selected Siri voice seems to not download.
Finally, after several chats and calls with Apple support, I was told that it's Beta software, they can't help me, and I should try the developer forums.... so here I am. Any advice?
Hello,
I'm unable to develop for Apple Intelligence on my Mac Studio, M1 Max running macOS 26 beta 1.
The models get downloaded and I can also verify that they exist in /System/Library/AssetsV2/ however the download progress remains stuck at 100%.
Checking console logs shows the process generativeexperiencesd reporting the following:
My device region and language is set to English (India).
Things I've already tried:
Changing language and region to English (US)
Reinstalling macOS
Trying with a different ISP via hotspot.
I've been following along with "App Shortcuts" development but cannot get Siri to run my Intent. The intent on its own works in Shortcuts, along with a couple others that aren't in the AppShortcutsProvder structure.
I keep getting the following two errors, but cannot figure out why this is occurring with documentation or other forum posts.
No ConnectionContext found for 12909953344
Attempted to fetch App Shortcuts, but couldn't find the AppShortcutsProvider.
Here are the relevant snippets of code -
(1) The AppIntent definition
struct SetBrightnessIntent: AppIntent {
static var title = LocalizedStringResource("Set Brightness")
static var description = IntentDescription("Set Glass Display Brightness")
@Parameter(title: "Level")
var level: Int?
static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary {
Summary("Set Brightness to \(\.$level)%")
}
func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult {
guard let level = level else {
throw $level.needsValueError("Please provide a brightness value")
}
if level > 100 || level <= 0 {
throw $level.needsValueError("Brightness must be between 1 and 100")
}
// do stuff with level
return .result()
}
}
(2) The AppShortcutsProvider (defined in my iOS app target, there are no other targets)
struct MyAppShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider {
static var shortcutTileColor: ShortcutTileColor = .grayBlue
@AppShortcutsBuilder
static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] {
AppShortcut(
intent: SetBrightnessIntent(),
phrases: [
"set \(.applicationName) brightness to \(\.$level)",
"set \(.applicationName) brightness to \(\.$level) percent"
],
shortTitle: LocalizedStringResource("Set Glass Brightness"),
systemImageName: "sun.max"
)
}
}
Does anything here look wrong? Is there some magical key that I need to specify in Info.plist to get Siri to recognize the AppShortcutsProvider?
On Xcode 16.2 and iOS 18.2 (non-beta).
I'm currently trying to add support for Image Playground to our apps. It seems that it's not working in an app that is "Designed for iPad" and runs on a Mac. The modal just shows a spinner and the following is logged to console:
Private sandbox for com.apple.GenerativePlaygroundApp.remoteUIExtension : <none>
Private sandbox for com.apple.GenerativePlaygroundApp.remoteUIExtension : <none>
Private sandbox for com.apple.GenerativePlaygroundApp.remoteUIExtension : <none>
Private sandbox for com.apple.GenerativePlaygroundApp.remoteUIExtension : <none>
GP extension could not be loaded: Extension (platform: 2) could not be found (in update)
dealloc Query controller [C32BA176-6A3E-465D-B3C5-0F8D91068B89]
ImagePlaygroundViewController.isAvailable returns true, however.
In a "real" Mac Catalyst app, it's working. Just not when the app is actually an iPad app.
Is this a bug?

I've implemented the imagePlaygroundSheet modifier in my app. It eventually all works but I've consistently noticed that the first time I present it, the sheet is totally blank. I then have to pull down to dismiss it (it doesn't even have a cancel button) and present it a second time and it loads content.
Just me? This is on 18.2 final, iPhone 16 Pro Max.

Hi everyone,
I’m an AI engineer working on autonomous AI agents and exploring ways to integrate them into the Apple ecosystem, especially via Siri and Apple Intelligence.
I was impressed by Apple’s integration of ChatGPT and its privacy-first design, but I’m curious to know:
• Are there plans to support third-party LLMs?
• Could Siri or Apple Intelligence call external AI agents or allow extensions to plug in alternative models for reasoning, scheduling, or proactive suggestions?
I’m particularly interested in building event-driven, voice-triggered workflows where Apple Intelligence could act as a front-end for more complex autonomous systems (possibly local or cloud-based).
This kind of extensibility would open up incredible opportunities for personalized, privacy-friendly use cases — while aligning with Apple’s system architecture.
Is anything like this on the roadmap? Or is there a suggested way to prototype such integrations today?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or pointers!

Hello,
Are there any plans to compile a python 3.13 version of tensorflow-metal?
Just got my new Mac mini and the automatically installed version of python installed by brew is python 3.13 and while if I was in a hurry, I could manage to get python 3.12 installed and use the corresponding tensorflow-metal version but I'm not in a hurry.
Many thanks,
Alan
I am writing to inquire about content exclusion capabilities within Apple Intelligence, particularly regarding the use of configuration files such as .aiignore or .aiexclude—similar to what exists in other AI-assisted coding tools. These mechanisms are highly valuable in managing what content AI systems can access, especially in environments that involve sensitive code or proprietary frameworks.
I would appreciate it if anyone could clarify whether Apple Intelligence currently supports any exclusion configuration for AI-assisted features. If so, could you kindly provide documentation or guidance on how developers can implement these controls?
If not, Is there any plan to include such feature in future updates?
Image Playground Error: Cannot find protocol declaration for 'ImageGenerationViewControllerDelegate'
@available(macCatalyst 18.1, *)
@available(iOS 18.1, *)
extension CKImageSelectionManager: ImagePlaygroundViewController.Delegate {
public func imagePlaygroundViewController(_ imagePlaygroundViewController: ImagePlaygroundViewController, didCreateImageAt imageURL: URL) {
}
func presentImagePlayground() {
let imagePlaygroundVC = ImagePlaygroundViewController()
// Set delegate to self to receive the callback
imagePlaygroundVC.delegate = self
imagePlaygroundVC.isModalInPresentation = true // Prevents dismissal with swipe if needed
self.delegate?.presentImageSelectionViewController(imagePlaygroundVC)

}
This generates an error in the xcode generated swift header.
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.. Not sure why it's popping up now. Am I correct in interpreting this as an LLDB issue? How do I fix it?
Hello Apple Developer Community,
I'm exploring the integration of Apple Intelligence features into my mobile application and have a couple of questions regarding the current and upcoming API capabilities:
Custom Prompt Support: Is there a way to pass custom prompts to Apple Intelligence to generate specific inferences? For instance, can we provide a unique prompt to the Writing Tools or Image Playground APIs to obtain tailored outputs?
Direct Inference Capabilities: Beyond the predefined functionalities like text rewriting or image generation, does Apple Intelligence offer APIs that allow for more generalized inference tasks based on custom inputs?
I understand that Apple has provided APIs such as Writing Tools, Image Playground, and Genmoji. However, I'm interested in understanding the extent of customization and flexibility these APIs offer, especially concerning custom prompts and generalized inference.
Additionally, are there any plans or timelines for expanding these capabilities, perhaps with the introduction of new SDKs or frameworks that allow deeper integration and customization?
Any insights, documentation links, or experiences shared would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Attempted to download the Adapter Toolkit linked to from https://developer.apple.com/apple-intelligence/foundation-models-adapter/. Failed on all attempts, with a "403 Forbidden" error. I had accepted the agreement on the first attempt. How would we get access please?
Apple's Image Playground primarily performs image generation on-device, but can use secure Private Cloud Compute for more complex requests that require larger models. Private Cloud Compute (PCC)
For more complex tasks that require greater computational power than the device can provide, Image Playground leverages Apple's Private Cloud Compute. This system extends the privacy and security of the device to the cloud:
Secure Environment: PCC runs on Apple silicon servers and uses a secure enclave to protect data, ensuring requests are processed in a verified, secure environment.
No Data Storage: Data is never stored or made accessible to Apple when using PCC; it is used only to fulfill the specific request.
Independent Verification: Independent experts are able to inspect the code running on these servers to verify Apple's privacy promises.
Itself been 4-5 days my Image playground has showing the “Downloading Support for Image Playground “

When using the imagePlaygroundSheet modifier in SwiftUI, the system presets an image playground in a fixed size. Especially on macOS, this modal is rather small and doesn't utilize the available space efficiently.
Is there a way to make the modal bigger, or allow the user to resize the dialog? I tried presentationDetents, but this would need to be applied to the content of the sheet, which is provided by the system...
I guess this question applies to other system-provided sheets like the photo picker as well.
there was a beta version. after the update it worked just like regular Siri. this message has been there for two days now but there is no loading.

Hi everyone,
I’m currently using macOS Version 15.3 Beta (24D5034f), and I’m encountering an issue with Apple Intelligence. The image generation tools seem to work fine, but everything else shows a message saying that it’s “not available at this time.”
I’ve tried restarting my Mac and double-checked my settings, but the problem persists. Is anyone else experiencing this issue on the beta version? Are there any fixes or settings I might be overlooking?
Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
I have an image based app with albums, except in my app, albums are known as galleries.
When I tried to conform my existing OpenGalleryIntent with @AssistantIntent(schema: .photos.openAlbum), I had to change my existing gallery parameter to be called target in order to fit the predefined shape of this domain.
Previously, my intent was configured to display as “Open Gallery” with the description “Opens the selected Gallery” in the Shortcuts app. After conforming to the photos domain, it displays as “Open Album” with a description “Opens the Provided Album”.
Shortcuts is ignoring my configured title and description now. My code builds, but with the following build warnings:
Parameter argument title of a required Assistant schema intent parameter target should not be overridden
Implementation of the property title of an AppIntent conforming to AssistantSchemaIntent should not be overridden
Implementation of the property description of an AppIntent conforming to AssistantSchemaIntent should not be overridden
Is my only option to change the concept of a Gallery inside of my app into an Album? I don't want to do this... Conceptually, my app aligns well with this domain does, but I didn't consider that conforming to the shape of an AI schema intent would also dictate exactly how it's presented to the user.
