Apple Unveils Foundation Models to Power Offline AI for Developers
Apple has introduced its Foundation Models framework at WWDC 2025, enabling developers to access powerful AI models for offline, on-device experiences. This move will allow apps to leverage Apple’s AI models without relying on cloud APIs, ensuring seamless functionality even when users are offline.
Unlocking Offline AI Capabilities for Developers
Craig Federighi, Apple’s VP of software engineering, stressed the frame's eventuality for creating engaging, substantiated gests directly on stoner bias. For case, apps like Kahoot can now use Apple’s AI models to induce custom quizzes from notes, enhancing studying without the need for pall connections. With this offline capability, inventors can offer smarter features without incurring pall costs, while also prioritizing stoner sequestration.

Swift Integration and Easy Access for Developers
The Foundation Models frame integrates natively with Swift, Apple's programming language, allowing inventors to incorporate Apple Intelligence models with minimum law — just three lines. This ease of use aims to streamline app development while icing AI- driven gests remain accessible to druggies, indeed in areas with limited internet access. Popular apps like Automatic’s Day One and All Trails are formerly using the frame to enhance their features, with further apps anticipated to follow suit.
What’s Next for Developers
The Foundation Models framework is available for testing through the Apple Developer Program, with a public beta scheduled for release next month. As AI continues to shape app functionality, Apple’s initiative positions the company at the forefront of delivering powerful, offline AI capabilities while keeping user data private.
