Apple is set to introduce an iOS 27.3 beta next week, which will bring select Apple Intelligence features to the Chinese market. The company announced the launch on its Chinese newsroom website, according to MacRumors. Apple Intelligence will initially be available to users in an iOS 27.3 beta that will be released on November 4th, with a full iOS 27.3 update expected in December.
However, this launch does not include the new Siri AI. Instead, users in China will be able to access features such as notification summaries, real-time translation, rewriting and proofreading tools, visual intelligence, and object removal from photos. Apple has also collaborated with Alibaba to incorporate its Qwen chatbot into certain experiences, similar to the integration of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in iOS.
Apple Intelligence received approval in China in July, indicating that its launch is rapidly approaching. Apple reportedly developed its own large language model (LLM) tailored for the Chinese market, as reported by Reuters.
