Two iOS 27 Features Won't Be Ready for Monday's Launch

[MacRumors]

Two iOS 27 features need a little more time in testing and won't be shipping until a future update, even though they were present during the beta period.

Suggestions in Messages conversations and the option to automatically fix compromised passwords with a tap will not be in the initial version of iOS 27, and will instead launch in a later version of iOS 27.

Apple noted the delays on its iOS 27 page, as well as its iPadOS 27 and macOS Golden Gate pages as these are cross-platform features.

For the password update feature, the Passwords app uses Apple Intelligence and Safari to fix compromised passwords in the background without the user needing to do so manually

In the Messages app, Apple Intelligence surfaces one-tap suggestions based on what's being discussed in a conversation. If someone you're talking to asks you to send a photo or complete a task, Messages recognizes the request and suggests action on the information with the relevant apps.

We already know that an iOS 27.1 update will be coming before October 23 because the iPhone Duo comes out on that date and ships with it pre-installed. We could potentially get the new features as soon as iOS 27.1.

iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 will launch to the public on Monday, September 14.

[It’s always something]

Can I turn off the password update thing? I definitely don’t want AI coming anywhere near my passwords!

Can someone explain how this works? Does the password app log into your accounts and change the password then update the new password in the passwords app? If so that is some really sophisticated AI.

I know it is a macOS 27 feature, instead of an iOS 27 one but, I wonder if the Safari AI grouping will launch with the official macOS 27 release or will also be delayed…

Hopefully it will be available at least by the end of the year but will not be surprised if it is further delayed.

Yep, Organize Tabs ships in macOS 27.0.

Yep, Apple Intelligence (i.e. an AI agent) can use Safari, Mail and Messages to log in to websites, grab one-time codes, and change your password. On macOS, you can actually bring back the automatic password change flow:

Missing the Passwords Auto-Fix flow? Here's how to get it back

In Beta 5, Apple disabled the flow to automatically update weak and compromised passwords using Apple Intelligence and Safari. You can get it back by re-enabling the feature flag. To enable: sudo mkdir -p /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain sudo defaults write \...

The same goes for suggestions, the flag is Messages/AssistantActionSuggestions

Well, you're someone I trust to know what they're saying, so thanks and let me get back to lining my ceiling with tin foil. 😅

It won’t do it unless you tell it to. It already tells you if you’re reusing passwords, this is just something extra, but it won’t do it unless you tell it to do it, so just don’t.

That’s exactly what it does, which is why it’s not available for all passwords, just the ones that it can do that with.

ICE agents forcefully unlock someone’s phone with Face ID / fingerprint after stealing their phone. Goes through all the AI summaries of everything your watch has ever recorded. Changes passwords to lock you out of all your online accounts, throws away your phone. Congratulations you are now a non citizen.

Something not ready at launch! That’s preposterous!!

Sincerely,

This would never have happened under Tim Cook.
