Apple Intelligence Available in These Additional 7 Languages Next Year

[MacRumors]

Apple Intelligence will start rolling out to the public in U.S. English only when iOS 18.1 is released in October, but additional languages will be added over the next year. The features are compatible with any iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 16 model.

Apple told publications including The Verge that Apple Intelligence will support the following previously-unannounced languages in 2025:

• English (India)
• English (Singapore)
• German
• Italian
• Korean
• Portuguese
• Vietnamese

Apple previously announced that support for versions of English spoken in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the U.K. will be added in December, and that support for Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish will be added next year.

iOS 18.1 is already available in beta for developers, and it includes Apple Intelligence features such as writing tools for proofreading text, notification summaries, suggested replies in the Messages app, the ability to record and transcribe phone calls, and a new "Clean Up" tool in the Photos app that can quickly remove objects from a photo.

Here's the full list of languages that are now known:

• English (U.S.) (October 2024)
• English (Australia) (December 2024)
• English (Canada) (December 2024)
• English (New Zealand) (December 2024)
• English (U.K.) (December 2024)
• English (South Africa) (December 2024)
• Chinese (2025)
• French (2025)
• Japanese (2025)
• Spanish (2025)
• English (India) (2025)
• English (Singapore) (2025)
• German (2025)
• Italian (2025)
• Korean (2025)
• Portuguese (2025)
• Vietnamese (2025)

Due to the Digital Markets Act, Apple Intelligence will not be available on the iPhone and iPad in the EU, with the features limited to Macs with the M1 chip or newer there. Apple said it is discussing this issue with the European Commission.

As a German I’m beyond happy and maybe just because this hater Thierry Bretton announced his resignation. Thank god.

Isn't the title a little misleading? Language support is nice and all, but due to what you described in the last sentence, Apple Intelligence still won't come to some EU countries (as of now).

It wont be available in the EU. As Germany is in the EU I’m afraid you are out of look for now. Until the EU gets its head out of its behind.

Huh?

That only has to do with Bretton not being in the von der Leyen block, that's not a response to anything DMA-related.

 

[wanha]

anyone if there is a way to use Apple Intelligence features from other countries not on this list?

Yeah, always fault of laws and regulations. Why don’t we get rid of them all and let mega companies like Apple or Google decide what’s right and good? I am sure it would be an incredible experience.

Ah the elusive Brexit benefit

 

[T'hain Esh Kelch]

Hopefully they will get something agreed upon with the EU. AI is by far the most interesting thing in Seqouia.

 

[Laggy]

Hope they will include Slavic languages too, so far no sign at all so…

 

[Techwatcher]

The EU takes another L, nothing new lmfao

Apple Intelligence will be available on Macs in the EU according to this article, just not the iPhone and iPad for now

 

[Pitogyro]

I don't understand this post. Is this about languages or countries? It says not available in the EU but also says will be available in Germany, France, Spain, Italy...

 

[LutzRFrank]

Languages ... but as its quiet easy to activate it even in EU (numerous posts here) allowing it to talk native is nearly the same

On Mac. Not in iPhone / iPad because of DMA.

Indeed, extremely poorly written. It makes no sense.

 

[lanomds1]

And Portugal still doesn’t have an Apple Store 😳

"Messed up" only two words!

On the Mac AI will work in Europe my friend. They should have said that in article

I would love to see that, but Slovakia, Poland, Czech Republic, Croatia and more have no Siri in their language, so AI service will come like 2050…

 

[NicHub]

Yeah, complicated... Apple Intelligence is more walled than other AI, but get refused when others AI are not!?

Also: I am Swiss and Switzerland is sometimes being considered by Apple as an EU country, sometimes not (politically it is not, but is quite aligned in terms of laws) so hard to know what will be available here!

Any timeline for Canadian French support?

Most likely:

• Canada (December 2024)

Otherise probably with France in 2025

At worse.....even later. But my money is on Dec 2024
