The much-awaited Apple Intelligence features have finally arrived. On December 11, Apple launched the update for iOS 18.2, which introduces a plethora of AI innovations for compatible iPhones. Among the exciting new capabilities are Genmoji, Visual Intelligence, and ChatGPT-integrated Siri—all tailored for the iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max, and iPhone 16 models. However, even users of older iPhones will benefit from enhancements, including updates to the Mail app.
To access the update, navigate to Settings > General > Software Update, select Update Now, and follow the on-screen instructions. Before utilizing Apple Intelligence features, you must activate them via Settings > Apple Intelligence & Siri by tapping Get Apple Intelligence.
A notable highlight is the revamped Siri experience. Instead of the familiar logo, users will now see a glowing light ring around their screen when invoking Siri. Additionally, Siri can access ChatGPT to handle user inquiries, though responses may vary.
Another innovative tool, Genmoji, allows users to create custom emojis by simply describing what they want. Users can search for existing emojis or generate new ones effortlessly.
Visual Intelligence empowers the camera to recognize objects and glean information from images, enhancing functions like QR code scanning and even language translation.
Finally, the Find My app introduces features that facilitate easier tracking of lost items by sharing locations and providing contact information.
With these updates, iOS 18.2 enriches the user experience, blending practicality with seamless technological advancements.
