iOS 26 Unleashes AI Power: iPhone Transforms
Apple’s iOS 26 introduces groundbreaking changes to the iPhone experience, primarily through its “Liquid Glass” design. However, some impressive features will initially be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16 series, and upcoming models, leveraging Apple Intelligence’s capabilities.
Exclusive AI-Driven Features
Modern iPhone devices will gain distinctive functionalities powered by expansive linguistic models and clever on-device processing, requiring advanced neural capabilities only found in the latest processors. For instance, the “Interpretation” feature, available in communication apps, offers immediate translation services. Messages are translated automatically as they’re written, with live translations during FaceTime calls and pronounced translations during phone calls.
New artificial intelligence-driven procedures are also coming to the Shortcuts app. Users may generate pictures, summarize text, and receive AI-written responses. Additionally, the system will suggest and arrange tasks, along with reminders, according to information from messages and emails.
iOS 26 will also suggest relevant opinion polls within the context of group conversations, facilitating easier creation, while modern iPhones can produce personalized wallpapers inside the messaging application using the IMAGE Playground tool, supported by artificial intelligence.
Moreover, new enhancements are set for Genmoji and Image Playground with Apple Intelligence, including emoji merging, character generation, and various artistic styles, such as animation and oil painting, with ChatGPT support.
Finally, the visual intelligence improvements in iOS 26 will extend to screenshots, allowing analysis of their content for shopping, adding calendar events, or gathering extra information.
