Quick SummaryUnusually for Apple, some of the headline features announced for iOS 18 won’t be included on day one of its release. But while some features won’t ship until 2025, Siri should be significantly better when iOS 18 ships in September.

If you’ve been following theiOS18 news from last week’s bigAppleevent, you’d be forgiven for thinking all the clever Siri features Apple announced won’t arrive until 2025. But while Apple is definitely taking it slow with AI, or what it callsApple Intelligence, Siri is still getting some big upgrades later this year.
One of the fun changes you’ll be able to make when iOS 18 releases is to change the wake word that gets Siri to pay attention – although in the current beta at least you can only do it on youriPhone, not on your HomePods, and only if you have the iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max. And Apple also says that Siri will be able to hand off to ChatGPT later this year, albeit possibly not in the very first iOS 18 release.
That said, some of the really big features won’t be here until 2025. Here’s what you’ll be waiting for.
What Siri upgrades you’ll be getting – and what ones you’ll have to wait for
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, his sources tell him that the following features “likely won’t be coming until 2025”:
However, the 2024 Siri will get a new interface, better conversational abilities, better voice recognition and an enhanced Type to Siri option for those of us who prefer to type rather than talk. And Apple’s AI will be able to summarise documents and other data, generate images and create custom emoji.
