Clearlipstick Posted January 24 Posted January 24 I've been happily chugging away in the beta version of Affinity photo on my iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (5th generation) and definitely enjoying the object selection tool. However, I now receive the following. Quote "Machine Learning Models: Sorry, the use of machine learning features requires an Apple Silicon device." My device has a silicon chip. Is this permanent for affinity photo? Quote
Hangman Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Hi @Clearlipstick, Do you see the same message after a reboot of your iPad? If so, could you upload a quick screen recording so we can see at what point the error message appears...

I think someone in the Serif team will need to look into this as it sounds like quite a unique occurrence... As @carl123 mentions above, there have been instances where the Machine Learning models are simply not available to install in the first place but the fact you already have them installed and have been using them makes this a bit odd...

I'll be very sad to see this feature go if they've changed it. 😞 Quote
