While training a text classifier model with a few thousand samples completes in seconds, when using 100,000 or 1 million samples, CreateML's training time increases exponentially (to hours or days). During these hours/days, GPU usage is low and almost every CPU core is idle. When using the Swift APIs for model training, resource utilization does not increase. I'm using Xcode 16.2, macOS 15.2 on either an M2 Ultra 64 GB or an M3 Max 48 GB laptop (both using built-in SSD with ~500 GB free) running no other applications. Is there a setting I've missed to allow training to take over more of my computing resources? Is this expected of CreateML (i.e., when looking to exploit a larger corpus, I should move to other tooling)? I'd love to speed up my iteration cycle time.

On an iPhone running iOS 26 beta 5, url(for: FilePath("subdir/asset.mov")) most always throws this error: The URL for “subdir/asset.mov” couldn’t be retrieved: “asset.mov” couldn’t be copied to “subdir” because an item with the same name already exists. Yet, contents(at: FilePath("subdir/asset.mov")) always returns Data for a playable AVMovie. How can I avoid this url(for:) error? The asset pack in question is downloaded. The error persists even after pack deletion, redownload, relaunch, and combinations of that. // Assets repo root subdir.aar subdir/asset.mov subdir/asset_thumb.heic subdir/Manifest.json // Manifest.json { "assetPackID": "subdir", "downloadPolicy": { "onDemand": {} }, "fileSelectors": [ { "directory": "subdir", }, ], "platforms": [ "iOS", "visionOS" ] } xcrun ba-package subdir/Manifest.json -o subdir.aar xcrun ba-serve --host 192.168.0.10 -p 443 subdir.aar

When considering an intent's membership in an AppIntentsExtension vs. main target or an xcframework linked to the main target (with Xcode 16), are there certain capabilities unavailable to Extension member AppIntents? (Specifically, say reuse in AppShortcutsProvider, launching deep links via openAppWhenRun, reuse in Widgets or LiveActivities?) For example, the Watch action button warns to only use intents in the main Watch target.

Xcode renders a beautiful bubble with PR comments inline with my code. However, I'd like to edit my code without that comment in the way. How do I turn / toggle that feature off? I've looked through Settings for editing and source control, menus for the editor and view, as well as the drop down menus and diff toggles for the specific editor box.

Our app has an infrequently used but useful calculator screen similar to Apple's calculator app where the current value ticker squats in the top toolbar trailing area, extending into the system clock area. In 26 beta, that view is now broken: the system clock not longer hides when a layout collision is detected. Can the prior avoidance behavior (or an API to hide the clock) be triggered somehow?

Our UI-less share extension (com.apple.services) appears in Safari and Chrome. We raise a popup "Open in (app)..." via the Action.js script document.location.href = urlScheme://... in Safari. However, in Chrome, while our extension executes, parses the URL item attachment from Chrome, it never triggers that popup or opens our app. How can a UI-less share extension open our app from Chrome? Is the accepted practice, despite guidelines, turning the com.apple.ui-services view controller invisible and auto-openURLing? Several apps on the store appear to do this, immediately popping their app without any confirmation dialog or UI in both Safari and Chrome. https://stackoverflow.com/a/79369242

Due to our min iOS version, this is my first time using .xcstrings instead of .strings for AppShortcuts. When using the migrate .strings to .xcstrings Xcode context menu option, an .xcstrings catalog is produced that, as expected, has each invocation phrase as a separate string key. However, after compilation, the catalog changes to group all invocation phrases under the first phrase listed for each intent (see attached screenshot). It is possible to hover in blank space on the right and add more translations, but there is no 1:1 key matching requirement to the phrases on the left nor a requirement that there are the same number of keys in one language vs. another. (The lines just happen to align due to my window size.) What does that mean, practically? Do all sub-phrases in each language in AppShortcuts.xcstrings get processed during compilation, even if there isn't an equivalent phrase key declared in the AppShortcut (e.g., the ja translation has more phrases than the English)? (That makes some logical sense, as these phrases need not be 1:1 across languages.) In the AppShortcut declaration, if I delete all but the top invocation phrase, does nothing change with Siri? Is there something I'm doing incorrectly? struct WatchShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider { static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { AppShortcut( intent: QuickAddWaterIntent(), phrases: [ "\(.applicationName) log water", "\(.applicationName) log my water", "Log water in \(.applicationName)", "Log my water in \(.applicationName)", "Log a bottle of water in \(.applicationName)", ], shortTitle: "Log Water", systemImageName: "drop.fill" ) } }
