Apple has confirmed a delay in the rollout of some Apple Intelligence-powered Siri features, which were initially expected to launch next month. The company now says these features will be introduced “in the coming year.”
In a statement to Daring Fireball, Apple acknowledged the delay, stating, “It’s going to take us longer than we thought to deliver on these features,” referring to advancements such as personal context, onscreen awareness, and deeper app integration, which were first showcased at WWDC last year.
“Siri helps our users find what they need and get things done quickly, and in just the past six months, we’ve made Siri more conversational, introduced new features like Type to Siri and product knowledge, and added integration with ChatGPT,” Apple said. “We’ve also been working on a more personalized Siri, giving it more awareness of your personal context, as well as the ability to take action for you within and across your apps. It’s going to take us longer than we thought to deliver on these features, and we anticipate rolling them out in the coming year.”
The delayed features include Personal Context, where Siri will gain the ability to track emails, messages, files, photos, and more, enabling it to assist with tasks like finding specific emails, retrieving documents, or recalling personal details. Onscreen Awareness will allow Siri to interact with content on your screen, taking actions based on what you’re viewing — for example, adding a shared address to a contact card or sending a displayed photo to a friend. Deeper App Integration will enable Siri to perform more complex actions across apps, such as moving files, editing images, sending messages, and even handling multi-step tasks that currently require manual input.
