Apple made a big software announcement during its WWDC 2026 keynote. A highlight of that event is the new Siri AI, which is coming to devices via iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and more.
The Siri AI is the biggest upgrade to Apple’s personal assistant. It’s now available for beta testing across iPhone, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS users, and will soon be available for watchOS 27 users. A final, market-ready version for everyone by the end of the year.
Siri AI can now answer questions based on what’s on your screen, let you ask questions in a natural tone and get in-depth answers by swiping down from the Dynamic Island or into Spotlight on iPad and Mac, revisit conversations, easily write and edit documents — pretty much many of the AI features we’ve already seen on other devices.
Spatial Reframing is also a cool feature that turns your flat photos into 3D so you can improve the composition.
Sadly, not all iOS 27 devices will get Siri AI and will only be exclusive to newer devices listed below:
- iPhone 16 models or newer
- iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max
- iPad models with M1 chip or newer
- iPad Mini A17 Pro
- MacBook Neo
- Mac with M1 chip or newer
- Apple Vision Pro
- Apple Watch Series 9 or newer
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 or newer
- Apple Watch SE 3 with Apple Intelligence-capable iPhone nearby
More than Siri AI, iOS 27 offers up to 30% faster app launches, has expanded child safety features, adjustable Liquid Glass transparency, and more. It will be available in Q4 of 2026.
