Apple has announced the availability of Siri AI to all developers through the iOS 27.3, iPadOS 27.3, macOS 27.3, and visionOS 27.3 betas. This new Developer Preview allows any app to integrate with Siri AI, enabling businesses and developers to reach and serve customers in innovative ways. Siri AI, a more capable, conversational, and personal version of Siri, is deeply integrated into Apple's operating systems and the apps developers create.
Thousands of existing developers have already built integrations with Siri AI, allowing users to accomplish tasks such as checking directions, managing to-do lists, sending messages, and catching up on audiobooks. With the new iOS betas, any app can now bring its content and actions directly into Siri AI using App Intents, making it easier for apps to tap into Siri AI's newest capabilities, including personal context understanding, onscreen awareness, natural language processing, and more.
Users can now ask Siri AI to perform complex tasks, with skills enabling Siri AI to combine multiple actions into a single experience. Siri AI can also surface any entity in the Spotlight semantic index, not just those fitting existing schemas. The new capabilities are already available in many Apple apps, such as Calendar, Files, Finder, Journal, Mail, Maps, Messages, Music, Notes, Photos, Preview, Reminders, Safari, Shortcuts, and Weather.
Users can discover and use apps simply by asking Siri AI. This developer beta offers early access to Siri AI app intents, allowing developers to explore and build new experiences before the feature is rolled out to customers in a few months. Developers have time to experiment and shape their experiences before the App Store submission opens in the spring.
Feedback is encouraged as developers explore the new functionality. Apple will provide further details on terms and usage policies for Siri AI-enabled experiences as they become available. The company invites developers to learn more about the new APIs, explore usage guidelines, and evaluate their app's experience with Siri AI through the new documentation.
For additional assistance, Apple engineers will be available at Apple Intelligence Group Labs on November 4–5 to answer questions, provide guidance, and foster discussion.
