Apple Intelligence, Apple’s artificial intelligence features, is set to launch this fall. The latest developer beta, iOS 18.1, has introduced Apple Intelligence for users to test out the new functionalities. However, there is a catch - interested individuals need to join a waitlist to access these features.
The Apple Intelligence feature is currently limited to U.S. users only. To use it, both the device language and Siri language must be set to U.S. English, and the device region must be set to the United States. Apple has specified that Apple Intelligence is not available in the EU or China.
It is expected that Apple may not release Apple Intelligence in multiple languages initially, hence the U.S. English requirement. The restriction on language also excludes China from accessing these features.
Apple Intelligence is compatible with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, with plans to extend to all iPhone 16 models. It will also be available on iPads with M1 or later chips by downloading the iPadOS 18.1 beta and on Macs with the same chips using the macOS 15.1 beta.
It's important to note that this is a developer beta, and there is no public beta available yet. The exact timeline for a public release is still uncertain.
Once users have updated their compatible devices to the iOS 18.1 beta, macOS 15.1, or iPadOS 18.1, they need to request access to Apple Intelligence by joining a waitlist through the Settings app. The wait time may vary, with some developers reporting a short wait while more users sign up.
The introduction of Apple Intelligence with its innovative features marks an exciting development in artificial intelligence technology. Users are encouraged to explore the new capabilities and functionalities that Apple Intelligence offers.
