With the release of iOS 18.2 on December 11th, features that are available now include generating images in Image Playground, creating custom “Genmoji” emoji, and ChatGPT integration. Other features of Apple Intelligence, including writing tools such as the ability to rewrite your text in different styles, trickled out to customers starting in October.There are major non-AI changes to consider too, like the ability to change your default apps or test your hearing with AirPods.Meanwhille, iPadOS 18 now has a calculator app and can solve math equations in notes, watchOS is keeping an eye out for sleep apnea, and now your iPhone can even message Androids with RCS.Read on for all the news about Apple’s latest set of operating system updates.Apple Intelligence will be available in more languages in April.Apple is reportedly working with Alibaba to launch AI features in China.Apple Intelligence might turn itself back on with the latest software updatesApple releases security updates to block iPhone passcode hacking tools, againBloomberg: iOS 18.3 added Starlink support on iPhones.iOS 18.3 is out with tweaks to AI notification summariesApple Intelligence is enabled by default in iOS 18.3Apple says it will ‘clarify’ AI summaries after botching BBC headlinesiOS and iPadOS 18.2.1 are out.Apple’s iOS 18.3 public beta is now available.Apple’s App Store is inviting me to ‘search the way you talk’Apple releases iOS 18.3 developer beta and tests Genmoji in macOS Sequoia.Apple’s AI summary mangled a BBC headline about Luigi MangioneYou can now use AirTags to expedite a lost luggage reunion through United’s mobile appWith iOS 18.2, Apple completes its AI starter kitThe iPhone 16 Pro now lets you layer recordings in Voice MemosThe Vision Pro’s ultrawide Mac display is very close to being a killer appiOS 18.2 and all the other Apple updates are available now.iOS 18.2 is rolling out now, adding ChatGPT integration and more Apple Intelligence toolsApple Pay’s first competitor on the iPhone has arrived in NorwayThe latest Apple betas let you copy links to highlighted text in Safari.Apple AI notification summaries exist; rarely useful, often hilariousApple’s iOS 18.2 public beta starts opening up access to more AI featuresiOS 18.2 puts Safari download progress right on your iPhone’s lockscreen.iOS 18.2 could finally estimate your iPhone’s charging timeApple Intelligence will come to EU iPhones in AprilIf you want to try Apple Intelligence, you’ll have to get on a waitlist.Apple Intelligence is here, but it still has a lot to learnApple Intelligence is outSiri’s big ChatGPT upgrade is here — for better and worseThe confusing state of Apple IntelligenceWith iOS 18.2, EU users can delete the App Store.Apple will let everyone set new default phone and messaging apps with iOS 18.2The iOS 18.2 beta brings categories to the Mail app.Apple’s first iOS 18.2 beta adds more AI features and ChatGPT integrationApple is ‘concerned’ about AI turning real photos into ‘fantasy’Apple’s AirPods Pro hearing health features are as good as they soundiPhones now support wired Xbox controllers.Your iPhone 16 may get its first Apple Intelligence features later this monthiOS 18 message effects are more fun than I thought.watchOS 11 puts a Dynamic Island on your wristApple Intelligence update schedule.Let’s just start with the camera.Apple Intelligence is now available in public betasWith visionOS 2, Apple’s Vision Pro comes into focusApple now lets you add Matter devices to Apple Home without a hubYou’ll be able to use an iPhone to wirelessly restore an iPhone 16In defense of the iPhone Action ButtonHere’s how green bubbles are getting upgraded in iOSNow Halide is on your iPhone’s lockscreeniOS 18 is a smart upgrade, even without the AIName that tune.watchOS 11 is now available with sleep apnea detection for the Series 9 and Ultra 2macOS Sequoia is out now with iPhone mirroring but no Apple Intelligence — yetiOS 18 is here with RCS and homepage customization featuresApple Sports 2.0 has arrived.Apple confirms the iPhone 16 has 8GB of RAMApple’s AirPods Pro 2 could forever change how people access hearing aidsiOS 18 has a tool to help configure genuine replacement parts.Here’s everything coming in iOS 18.Here’s what your iPhone 16 will do with Apple Intelligence — eventuallyiOS 18 allows iPhone users to pause video recordingsiOS 18 will launch next week with new ways to customize your homescreen
