Apps and software updates
A whole new Siri is coming with iOS 27.
Apple
The OS 27 updates: All the “27” updates are getting ready for release in September. This is a huge release, with a complete overhaul for Siri, turning it into a real AI chatbot agent, as well as dozens of quality-of-life and performance improvements. There are helpful new features throughout, many of them AI-powered, like the Phone app surfacing relevant info when calling a person or business. Call the airline and get your ticket confirmation number from your email right on the Phone screen, for example. There are new Photos editing features, a totally new Image Playground, the ability to essentially vibe-code Shortcuts or Safari extensions, and over 250 other pain points and wishlist items addressed.
Siri AI: Part of the new OS 27 updates is a new Siri, appropriately called Siri AI. It’s an entirely new generation of AI assistant, and no longer years behind other contemporary AI chatbots like Gemini, Claude, or ChatGPT. It’s more conversational and has much better world knowledge, more easily understands you and your context, and can even look through your Messages, Mail, Calendar, and Contacts to piece together personalized responses. It all comes together in a new Siri app that keeps a history of your questions and chats (you can adjust for how long the history remains) and is synced between devices.
