NOTE: iOS ships slower than Android / HarmonyOS. Every iOS build must clear Apple's TestFlight review before reaching users, so new features and bug fixes on iOS typically land several days to a couple of weeks behind the Android APK and HarmonyOS HAP releases. If you need the latest fix immediately, please use the Android or HarmonyOS package on this page.

- Device with ≥ 6 GB RAM recommended (e.g. iPhone 15 Pro, or iPad with an M-series chip) for smooth on-device inference
