Apple's fifth beta of iOS 27 introduces enhanced options for customizing the voice of Siri, the AI assistant. Users can now adjust not only the pace but also the expressivity of Siri's speech, making the assistant's tone more flexible. The customization is available for seven American voices and four British voices, with the ability to tweak the Pace to alter talking speed and Expressivity to modify emphasis.
The feature is on-device, meaning it operates locally on the device rather than in the cloud, making it available to newer iPhones. To access Siri's voice customization, users must own an iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, or iPhone Air. Similarly, the feature extends to Macs equipped with an M3 chip or later, and iPads with an M4 chip or newer, each requiring at least 12GB of RAM.
