iPhone, iPad | iOS 12+ | ARMv7, ARMv7s, ARMv8

Hint

For server applications, Intel Core i7-4771 (3.5 GHz) processor or better is recommended.
For mobile applications, ARM-based 1.5 GHz processor is recommended.

### Additional Requirements for GPU version

For Windows or Linux, GPU is supported only for the x86_64 architecture only. Please be aware some models might not support GPU acceleration. For CUDA packages, a driver supporting CUDA=11.5 is necessary.

Operating Systems | Available packages and backends
--- | ---
Windows | x86 : CPU x64 : OpenCL x64-cuda : CUDA
Linux | x64 : OpenCL x64-cuda : CUDA
Android | eu.id3.face : CPU eu.id3.face-gpu : OpenCL & Vulkan (arm-v8 only)
iOS / macOS | default : Metal
