In a bid to keep pace with rival AI apps, Apple is working on enhancing Siri's capabilities for iOS 27.3 developer beta users. The tech giant is aiming to expand Siri's functionalities, both in complexity and for third-party apps.

This first step is anticipated to be available to the public in December 2026. However, third-party support is projected to follow in the spring of 2027, likely part of iOS 27.5 or iOS 27.6. Apple's ambitious plans, dubbed App Intents, are designed to make Siri an agentic helper capable of managing tasks over extended periods without constant user intervention.
Although Apple's progress in this area lags behind that of services like Muse and Grok, the company is striving to catch up.
