AI features require a supported device with Apple Intelligence enabled and its on-device model available; availability varies by system, language and region. Production planning features require Pro. Apple Watch requires watchOS 10 or later and a paired iPhone; live controls require a reachable phone. Silent cues require the Watch app to be active. The take timer logs takes; it does not control a camera or record audio. Camera and LiDAR features require compatible hardware. iCloud sync requires a connection.
