Hello @FerTech! M1 chips are very powerful and we are proud to support M1 across all models except Qwen3-ASR-1.7b. Our current implementation leverages advanced Neural Engine optimizations which are incompatible with the M1 architecture.
We are looking into an M1-specific patch, stay tuned!
MacWhisper 15.2 is out now and introduces the new NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Diarization model for speaker recognition. Thanks to @argmax for helping us add support on day 0!

Introducing @NVIDIAAI Nemotron 3 Diarization on Argmax SDK!
> Day 0 support
> Real-time diarization with 8 speakers
> Frontier accuracy
Details in comments.
We have been building an iOS app in stealth and we just hit private beta today!
> Life-like voices running on your iPhone
> Listen to anything: Books, PDFs, articles, emails...
> Works offline as you commute or travel
Beta testers who submit feedback will get a free lifetime license. DM me if you want an invite.
Argmax Pro SDK 3.0.6 is in stable release!
Test real-time Qwen3-ASR on your iPhone or Mac without writing code at Argmax Playground: https://t.co/7QvhYIZaEY
Introducing Argmax Pro SDK 3!
- Frontier* multilingual speech-to-text on iOS with Qwen3-ASR-1.7b
- Real-time API with custom vocabulary and word timestamps in under 2 GB
- New Dictation API optimized for post-recording latency
Also in this release:
- By popular demand: Unpredictable recompilation latency from Core ML is gone!
- Canonical formatting for dates and numbers in transcripts
TestFlight link in replies.
*Ranks at the top of the OpenASR private leaderboard. Private data deters leaderboard hacking.

For current Argmax customers, this new model works with the APIs you are already familiar with!
Simply update your dependency to 3.0.2 and get started with the examples in the CHANGELOG: https://t.co/Ie7Y1qrEp4
Apple restricted background access to the Neural Engine on iOS 27... and it's back!
This would have broken on-device inference for many apps that rely on this access, including many of our customers.
We made a strong case to Apple that this access should be reinstated, channeling our customers' voice.
We are elated that Apple reinstated this capability in the first iOS 27 Public Beta!
Here is the step-by-step guide in our docs: https://t.co/hiohTLatwf
This work has been accepted at Interspeech 2026!
Come visit the @argmax booth in Sydney this September to learn about our other advancements in speech and speaker recognition.
Argmax Pro SDK 2.1.4 is in stable release!
- All dependencies are removed
- Download APIs are upgraded with various features and robustness improvements
