Apple today announced that iOS 18.1 will be released to the public at some point in October. The software update will add the first Apple Intelligence features to the iPhone 15 Pro models and all four new iPhone 16 models.

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.

Apple Intelligence will initially be available with device and Siri language set to English only, and the features will have a "beta" label even on the publicly released version of iOS 18.1 that is coming out next month. Apple said support for additional languages, including Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish, will be added next year.

I would love to use new features, but Apple seems to forgot about other European countries like Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and other… I mean Google supports A LOT more languages since 2019 or longer, how is it possible Apple is not?

Ehh, another year without Siri and now AI…
 
This is easily the most underwhelming iPhone event they've ever held.

AirPods > Airpods Max
AW > AWU

What's next, I gotta order a baseline MacBook to get better tech than the MBP??

Tim Apple has gone off crazy into the orchard.

How can they not get iOS 18.1 with Apple Intelligence out sooner? "Sometime in October" is lame.

Figured…. In the past the updates were available after this event but no longer I see and I have to wait till October?????
 
LFG! The future of the Apple ecosystem starts with this, it's really that game changing when there's relevant context.

Ok. But what about 18.0?
Was wondering the same thing too. Is 18.0 coming out in September?

Also, I think it's a good thing that the updates overall weren't "major". Don't need totally newly refreshed product lines every year. Not sustainable.
