Wondering about the Apple Intelligence release date??? ??? ?? I've got some good news and some bad news.
The good news is that Apple Intelligence is available now on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. You can play around with new features like notification summaries, AI-powered writing tools, and an updated Siri that's more tolerant of disfluencies.
However, some of the more highly anticipated Apple Intelligence features, like Genmoji and Image Playground, are not out yet. Fortunately, they will be headed our way soon.
