Now make Siri AI faster and more robust on other devices, scan additional file types on files stored on the iCloud Drive (especially PDF), and faster activation from the Search text field.

New Siri AI features include:

  • Conversation recall: Siri AI can now retain useful context from prior conversations, so you can ask it about things you’ve previously discussed such as restaurants it previously recommended
  • Personal context upgrades: More personal context sources can now be tapped into by Siri AI to provide a better answer, including “photos attached in Messages, Calendar event attendees, your voicemails, and better results from Safari history and Reading List”
  • More languages: Expanding beyond English, Siri AI now also supports French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish
  • Faster on Apple Watch: Apple says that in watchOS 27.2, Siri AI provides faster responses than before

Users can benefit from these Siri AI upgrades across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and more with iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, macOS 27.2, and other companion releases.

With AI models from companies like OpenAI and Anthropic always improving, it’s great to see Apple already iterating on Siri AI so shortly after it launched. Here’s hoping the assistant keeps getting better with each new software update.
