Developers are weaving Apple Intelligence into apps, says Apple
Apple has shared insight into some of the developers who have begun introducing solutions that exploit Apple Intelligence tools to deliver innovative and useful experiences in health, fitness, education, and productivity
These apps rely on Apple’s Foundation Models framework, available with iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26, which enables developers to create intelligent app features using on-device AI.
What’s important about the framework is that enables privacy-protected, offline AI services. Developers are using these to provide features such as personalized quizzes, workout summaries, and conversational explanations.
What Apple said
“We’re excited to see developers around the world already bringing privacy-protected intelligence features into their apps. The in-app experiences they’re creating are expansive and creative, showing just how much opportunity the Foundation Models framework opens up,” said Susan Prescott, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations.
“From generating journaling prompts that will spark creativity in Stoic, to conversational explanations of scientific terms in CellWalk, it’s incredible to see the powerful new capabilities that are already enhancing the apps people use every day.”
Initial apps extend from brand new resources from brand new Apple developers to fantastic solutions from some of the most widely-known established names, including task management solution, OmniFocus 4 which can now  generate projects and next steps on a user’s behalf; or AI Video Editor which can turn a draft or outline into a ready-to-record teleprompter script, or even VLLO, which intelligently analyses a video preview, and automatically suggests the perfect background music and dynamic stickers tailored to each scene.
From an idea to a reality with AI
How it works
The Foundation Models framework is tightly integrated with Swift, making it easy for developers to send requests to the 3 billion parameter on-device model right from their existing code. The framework provides guided generation, which ensures that the models respond with a consistent format that developers can rely on. Developers can provide tools to the model that call back into the app when the model requires more information for processing, ensuring that the model has all the right information to respond.
