iOS 27 introduces AI-powered Shortcuts with natural language creation, new triggers, and additional AI model options. The feature allows users to describe a desired workflow in simple terms, which Apple Intelligence then converts into a functional shortcut. Users can test, modify, or edit the generated shortcut before saving it.
Additionally, new automation triggers, such as notification, screenshot, and keyboard triggers, enable more opportunities for unattended automations. The "Use Model" action now supports on-device, cloud, cloud pro, and ChatGPT models, allowing shortcuts to retrieve current information from the web when supported. Users should be cautious when using confidential data with these models and review the model transcript to ensure proper information handling.
These features are compatible with iPhone 15 Pro and later, iPad mini with A17 Pro, iPads with M1 chip or later, and Macs with Apple silicon.
