Siri AI
Apple’s rebuilt Siri, which finds things in your messages, email, and photos, and drafts email.
- What it does
- A rebuilt Siri that answers questions, finds things in your messages, email, and photos, drafts email, and takes actions in apps. When you call a business, it can show you a confirmation code or booking number.
- Who makes it
- Apple Inc., Cupertino, California, with models built together with Google.
- What it costs
- Apple lists no price. Features that run on Apple’s servers have daily limits, and Apple says more use will cost a fee in the future.
- Where your data goes
- It runs on your device and on Apple’s servers. Apple says when its servers handle a request, your personal data isn’t stored or made available to Apple or anyone else. Chat history syncs through iCloud.
- What you need first
- An iPhone 15 Pro or any iPhone 16 or later, an iPad with M1 or later or iPad mini (A17 Pro), a Mac with M1 or later, Apple Vision Pro, or Apple Watch Series 9, Ultra 2, or SE 3 or later, on iOS 27 or the matching new software. English only at first. Not in the EU on iPhone, iPad, and Watch, or in China, for now.
- Where it stands
- New: in beta since September 14, 2026.
- Who it suits
Good fit if you already use a recent iPhone and want help finding things in your own texts and email.
Not a fit if you need a business line answered or jobs booked; it’s a personal phone assistant.
