Apple Notes has long been one of my most-used apps, and iOS 27 is rumored to add a powerful new capability that I know will quickly become a go-to feature for me.
iOS 27’s new Siri expected to have special Notes integration
I’m a heavy Apple Notes user, with nearly 2,700 notes in iCloud currently. So any time Apple adds new features to the Notes app, I’m especially intrigued.
iOS 26 offered some modest updates to Notes, like the clever Adaptive Toolbar and Markdown import and export. My favorite change is probably just the Liquid Glass UI.
But iOS 27 is rumored to offer a much bigger upgrade thanks to the new Siri and special integration with the Notes app.
All signs point to iOS 27 bringing the Siri we’ve all been waiting for. It will introduce not only the promised iOS 18 features that got delayed, but also a complete modernization for the AI era.
Siri will be a full-featured chatbot like ChatGPT, with a dedicated app and expertise in world knowledge. Its LLM foundation, based on a Google Gemini variant, will enable Siri to offer the convenience and intelligence seen with competitors like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.
But Siri will also reportedly come with a special advantage for Apple Notes users, and I’m very excited for it.
Adding Siri intelligence to Apple Notes with one command
One of my most-anticipated iOS 27 features was first reported on earlier this year. Per The Information:
Siri will also be able to handle other types of tasks, such as creating a Notes document with a cooking recipe or information about the top causes of drug addiction, for instance.
I use Apple Notes as a catch-all for information that I want to reference later. And Siri’s ability to add information directly into Notes is something I know I’ll use often.
Today, I get AI answers all the time from ChatGPT and Gemini that I want to save in Notes for later.
The process is clunky, as I need to manually select and copy the relevant information, then switch to the Notes app, find where I want to save it, and paste. Formatting is often a problem too, especially bullet points.
With iOS 27, it sounds like Siri will be able to streamline this whole process. What’s currently a multi-step hassle should become as easy as saying, “Add this to a new note.” Or, “Add this to my XYZ note.”
Siri’s ‘Add to Note’ capability, combined with the assistant’s new LLM intelligence, should make iOS 27 a big upgrade for Notes users.
