The First Taste of ‘Apple Intelligence’ has Arrived

Here is what works

Apple is betting that phones with AI tools can make life a little easier — and now, we're getting a first look at how.

This week, Apple released an early preview version of its iOS 18.1 software, containing the first of the Apple Intelligence tools it first highlighted at its AI-heavy developers conference in June. The full versions of these features aren't expected to launch until after the company announces its new iPhones in the fall, but anyone who signs up for a free developer account can take these early tools for a spin right now.

Using incomplete, or beta software always comes with risks, but there’s another reason you should probably considering trying this update out for yourself. This first taste of Apple Intelligence is part of a developer beta, meaning it's meant for app makers who need to make sure their work integrates nicely with Apple's.
