Siri AI
The rebuilt Siri, which can now see your screen, use your personal context and act inside apps.
By Apple · launched 2026-09-14 · last checked 2026-11-02
Why 2: it acts one request at a time inside apps that support it, such as drafting an email or adding an event, rather than planning multi-step tasks.
What it does. Released in beta with iOS 27 on 14 September 2026, on models Apple built with Google's Gemini, Siri AI can draft email, edit and share photos, add events and reminders from what is on screen, and build Shortcuts from a description. It works with some third-party apps, including WhatsApp and Audible. Access came through a waitlist, and it needs an Apple Intelligence device such as an iPhone 15 Pro or later.
Where it falls short. It acts one request at a time inside apps that support it, and few third-party apps did at launch. Apple says the Digital Markets Act is why there is no timeline for it on iPhone and iPad in the EU.
