The start of the new month means iPhone users have a shorter wait for the next iOS 18 update with new features. The update is important for those using the iPhone 15 Pro or higher models, as the Apple Intelligence upgrades roll out as promised by Apple.

The new iOS 18.2 beta version has already shown us that the company is seriously working behind the scenes to expedite these features. Here’s a low down of all the expected features, coming to millions of iPhone users in the next few weeks.

iOS 18.2 Beta Update: New Features Coming To iPhones

Siri Talks To ChatGPT

Apple and OpenAI announced their deal to bring ChatGPT to iPhones at the WWDC 2024 keynote, and we are finally seeing its results with the iOS 18.2 beta version. Siri can now pass on requests to handle some AI tasks to ChatGPT which will then transmit data out of Apple’s server. That’s not all, Siri is now able to take queries regarding the image open on the screen and give you the details.

More AI Writing Chops

Apple is giving AI more styles to help you write materials. They can select the tone and even change the type of content, for instance, convert an email into a poem.

AI Image Generate

Apple’s Image Playground is here to create images based on prompts, something that you can do with the Pixel Studio on the new Pixel 9 phones using Gemini AI. Apple’s AI integration is limited to its own apps for now.

Make Genmojis

Apple will allow iPhone users the power to create Genmojis with iOS 18.2 which till now is limited to viewing and knowing more details about them. Genmoji isn’t different from the regular emojis, but you have the classic Apple touch with it.

The AI Camera Update

Apple’s big reason to have the camera control button on the iPhone 16 series is to help with the visual intelligence of its AI tools. Just by pointing the camera at a cafe, you can get the reviews, get more details for the places and even activate ChatGPT with some queries.

The new iOS 18 update will be available to a lot of iPhones but the AI features are limited to the premium iPhone 15 Pro/15 Pro Max and the iPhone 16 lineup from 2024.
