Apple Intelligence release

According to a 9To5Mac report, Apple is expected to officially release the iOS 18 feature alongside the iPhone 16. While iOS 18 is currently in the fourth cycle of beta versions, Apple Intelligence is yet to be released for developers or public betas. As of now, it is expected that new AI features for iOS 18 may roll out in the upcoming beta releases before its official release in September. Therefore, there is a slight chance that developers may get to experience the Apple Intelligence features before the official rollout of the iOS 18 update. To confirm the claims, Apple's developers' website has also highlighted that  “Apple Intelligence will be available in an upcoming beta.”

However, there are also speculations that Apple Intelligence will be initially introduced for only developers and later for public beta. But, it is confirmed that either way the AI features will be rolled out for tests before the official iOS 18 release this fall. 

Apple Intelligence public release

While, developers and public beta users may get their hands on Apple Intelligence, but public release may not be rolled out until the iOS 18.1 update. Therefore, the final consumers will get to use the new Apple AI features in October or November. Also, note that the Apple Intelligence features will only be available to users owning the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and the upcoming iPhone 16 series.
