), or download them from our GitHub release assets. You should have 5 YOLOv8 models in total. Place these in the YOLO/Models
directory as seen in the Xcode screenshot below.
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Loop through all YOLOv8 model sizes
for size in ("n", "s", "m", "l", "x"):
# Load a YOLOv8 PyTorch model
model = YOLO(f"yolov8{size}.pt")
# Export the PyTorch model to CoreML INT8 format with NMS layers
model.export(format="coreml", int8=True, nms=True, imgsz=[640, 384])
Run the Ultralytics YOLO iOS App:
Connect your iOS device and select it as the run target. Press the Run button to install the app on your device.
