Apple Prepares iOS 27 to Deliver Apple Intelligence 2.0

The update promises a large AI overhaul that could remake Siri, Camera and Photos, with WWDC on June 8 set to show which generative tools will ship as planned.

Overview

  • Apple is expected to preview iOS 27 at WWDC on June 8 and the release is being framed as a generational upgrade called Apple Intelligence 2.0 that ties large‑language models into core iPhone features.
  • Siri is rumored to get a full redesign into a chat‑style assistant with a standalone Siri app, multi‑step requests, broader app actions and LLM‑backed world knowledge.
  • The Camera app is reported to become fully customizable, moving the controls toggle next to the shutter and adding a new Visual Intelligence mode that can scan things like nutrition labels and contact information.
  • Photos is slated to gain three AI editing tools — Extend to generate content beyond a photo’s frame, Enhance to improve color and lighting, and Reframe to shift perspective — but Extend and Reframe reportedly do not perform reliably and may be delayed or scaled back.
  • Apple has confirmed one immediate change in iOS 27: a system setting to turn on subtitles for any video, a practical accessibility and convenience feature that will arrive even if some generative tools are pushed to later updates.
