Apple Launching iOS 18.4: Apple Intelligence Is Now Available in India!

Apple has officially commenced the iOS 18.4 rollout, thus bringing the widely awaited Apple Intelligence features for the Indian iPhone users. While users in the US, UK, Europe, and Canada have had their fair share of AI-powered enhancements, Indian users can finally be part of the action. Sadly, however, some features will not be available to all iPhones.
Which iPhones Will Be Able to Take Advantage of Apple Intelligence?
Apple Intelligence is restricted to the iPhone 16 series models, namely iPhone 16e, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max, along with iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. If you own one of the older models, you cannot access the advanced AI-driven features.
With this rollout, Apple Intelligence will introduce an array of languages, with localized English for India and Singapore, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese.
How to Turn on Apple Intelligence on Your iPhone?
In case you hold an iPhone that is supposed to work with Apple Intelligence, feel free to follow these simple steps:
- Settings, then General, on your iPhone.
- Software Update.
- Check for the update in iOS 18.4, then download.
- When the installation is complete, you should explore the new features powered by AI!
This update rollout will be staggered; if you don’t see it immediately, we’ll keep checking back for the next hours or days.
What Are the New Features of Apple Intelligence?
Apple Intelligence introduces a plethora of smart features that upgrade these experiences on iPhones. Here are a few major introductions:
Writing Tools – Rewrite, proofread, and summarize any text across apps like Mail, Messages, and Notes.
Smart Replies – Generate quick responses on the fly to conversations.
Genmoji – Create personalized emojis based on any textual description.
Clean Up – Remove any unwanted objects from pictures.
Image Playground – Generate customized images along different themes.
Memories in Photos – Making video compilations from written prompts.
Enhanced Siri – A smarter Siri with an improved interface, better context retention, and text-based interaction.
Making Apple Intelligent with ChatGPT
Siri and the Writing Tools have already incorporated ChatGPT, creating a user platform for AI assistance, leaving out the requirement for having a separate ChatGPT account. AI creates content, analyzes images, and gives an in-depth contextual response. Apple anonymizes user requests by preventing the storage of such information when they do not have an account and by masking IP addresses.
