downloading support for image plaground isn’t working on a M5 11” iPad Pro 1tb. Running 27.3. Tried stopping it and restarting the download but it just says it’s downloading. I asked Siri and she said something about 7gb needed. Why isn’t this included in the OS download? Seems these are key asset to the app. What happened? Oppps, dumb question. As you were.

I've been reading the documentation for App Intents using the @AppIntent(.tool) macro and from what I read, when an app is in the foreground the app name doesn't have to be used to trigger the App Inent. Can the app name still be eliminated if only the CarPlay Automaker app is in the foreground?

ToolIntent is currently marked unavailable on watchOS. (FB25455121) When Siri is invoked on Watch, what behavior(s) can users expect when invoking ToolIntents declared in our paired iOS codebase? Example use case: At their gym, a user leaves their iPhone face down nearby. To Siri on their Watch, they say "I just did 350 lbs 8 reps to failure" or "Rest for 3 minutes" or "Hack squat machine is busy, let's jump to the next exercise". If it matters, we benefit from extended background runtime via a mirrored live HKWorkout between our watch app and iPhone app (which displays a Live Activity).

How do the usage limits work for siri evaluations and for the app intents we expose to Siri AI? Are the usage limits tied to the developer or the individual users Apple Account? Thank you!

Is it possible to integrate Siri into an iOS app in a way that allows users to control the app entirely through voice commands? For example, imagine a user saying: “Siri, open my add-ons and show me my available internet packages.” I would like to understand whether Siri, using App Intents or another Apple framework, can: Recognize a voice command and identify the requested action. Navigate to a specific section of the app's Home Screen, even if that section is currently outside the visible area. Automatically scroll to the relevant UI component and bring it into view. Navigate to other screens when required. Perform multiple actions as part of one continuous experience, such as scrolling, opening a screen, selecting an option, and triggering an API request. My main question is: Can we create a conversational, voice-controlled experience where a single Siri command can trigger a sequence of UI navigation and app-related operations, rather than simply opening the app or navigating to a predefined screen? What are the recommended Apple frameworks and best practices for implementing this kind of experience?

I would like to know why there are limitations for languages used in Siri?

Our app is a secure enterprise portal (business email, files, chat) for MDM-managed corporate devices. Preventing selected text from leaving the app is a hard product requirement, so we opt out of Writing Tools everywhere. On iOS 27.2, the Siri AI entry still appears in the text-selection edit menu (the bubble menu shown on long-press/selection), in both WKWebView and UITextView, and it allows sending the selected text to Siri. We have exhausted every public API and documented all of it: writingToolsBehavior = .none is set and verified at runtime. WKWebViewConfiguration.writingToolsBehavior == .none (-1) before the web view is created, and the web view's internal content view also reports -1. UITextView.writingToolsBehavior = .none as well. The documentation for UIWritingToolsBehavior.none says "Writing Tools will ignore this view", so we expected no AI entry point for selections in these views. The entry is not in UIMenuBuilder. We dumped the entire menu tree in buildMenu(with:) (root and all children, before and after calling super): only standard-edit / open / format / learn / speech / share are present. There is no Siri-related menu or command to remove. The entry does not go through canPerformAction(_:withSender:). We log every selector that is queried; no Siri/WritingTools-related selector ever appears. Our override returns false for everything except cut/copy/paste/select/ selectAll/delete — yet the Siri AI entry is still shown. Even a fully custom menu does not help. Returning a UIMenu built from scratch (only our own UIActions, ignoring suggestedActions) from textView(_:editMenuForTextIn:suggestedActions:) still gets the Siri AI entry attached to the presented edit menu. So the entry is attached to the edit-menu container itself, not to the menu contents. Questions: Is there any supported API on iOS 27 for an app to suppress the Siri AI entry in the edit menu for specific views (or app-wide)? If not, is this intended behavior? It appears to contradict the documented contract of UIWritingToolsBehavior.none ("Writing Tools will ignore this view"). Is there a recommended approach for apps handling confidential data (banking/меdical/enterprise) other than the MDM allowWritingTools restriction? Environment: iOS 27.2 (Iphone 16Pro), Xcode 27.2, deployment target iOS 13.

Totally inaccurate performance from the newly launched Siri on MacOS 27.01. This was incompetent for AI. I asked for a graph of the price of an ounce of gold in $AUD. Its first response gave the price in $USD and not $AUD yet labelled it as $AUD - fundamentally wrong. It kept answering with tiles of graphs as a response - some having nothing to do with the question. It then finally admitted it couldn't produce a graph. It didn't understand the context of 2026 being a calendar year and defaulted to a financial year. So many issues - this is really bad Apple. So many years waiting for this - and this is not ready yet.

Oldest model of 5.5 with codex is deprecated by chatgpt but I only see 5.5 as the highest available model selectable in the dropdown in intelligence settings in Xcode when selecting codex I have the ChatGPT pro account and login to codex in xcode via email/password and not the API key I have already tried login out, quitting xcode, removing codex agent and reinstalling it, so far nothing works

i have a question about the iOS 27, is there an exact date yet for iOS 27 with the new features like Siri AI and everything else, is there a date when iOS 27 comes out in Europe with the new Siri AI?

I have created a Personal Voice and have selected it in my AI app. It sounds awful. Why? Can I continue to train it until its sounds more like me? Why not? When should I expect a Personal Voice Upgrade.

Policy or no policy I think its clear if Apple wants to have a premium SiriAI experience its gonna need to allow apps to use the Siri AI Voice engine Developers like me want the privacy/no cloud voice engine service that a SiriAI Voice would provide Seemless conversations with versions of SiriAI Voices let's users know they're still in the SiriAI ecosystem but engaged with a developer app The "hey Siri, ask LinkedIN Hoffman to .." is stunningly haphazard moat gate that Apple can resolve and still keep control with a simple App License so it know every app that uses a SiriAI Voice App engine. I've been waiting over a year for Apple to figure this out. This is an unforced error. This is not a threat its an opportunity for Apple ? Is this a Driver or CoreOS issue? WTF?

I have tech support case running -- no help at all after over 2 weeks these files explain what I have tried, to no avail Siri AI Findings.txt Siri_AI_Diagnostic_FOR_APPLE_FORUM.txt Thoughts?

(I don't follow the AI stuff here, so sorry if this is a stupid question. Or the wrong category.) There is a new fangled AI mode called JEV. Can the current Apple Intelligence libraries do something like it, or is this a WWDC27 thing?

Since I updated to this os 27 in my iPhone 16 plus the siri ai and Apple Intelligence is got freeze in “ Adding support for Siri is in progress. Siri will be unavailable until the update is complete. “ I updated on 21/09/2026 today date is 30/09/2026 I tried all troubleshooting methods and watch a bunch of YouTube videos, but still stuck in the same position. I contacted Apple support. But , they also do nothing. Please anyone help me to how to get siri ai beta @appleindia @applesupport

I’ve tried every online recommendation but nothing works, someone helps me out , my WiFi is pretty good, 100GB storage space and I have left the phone plugged in for 5 consecutive days

I have successfully installed the macos 27 golden beta today 10 sep, 2026 on my macbook m4 air, activated siri beta. Have all my language and region and appstore in united states. Siri does set timer for 15 minutes for example but no other things that siri (with no ai) does normally. it sends me back sorry we have problem, we’ve had problems and all other kinds of error messages, writing tools unavailable( i also have checked the screen time section, no results) i am really having a difficult time to try this core and important feature. also tried with vpn on and off no difference!

My phone no longer shows the waitlist for Siri and has the option to "Try New Siri." I select it, continue, continue and the settings change to "Siri (Beta)" and the waitlist option is no longer there, but when using Siri it's the old pre-Apple Intelligence Siri that activates (little bubble at the bottom) and it does not work. Going to Safari and typing "Siri://" opens the New Siri App, but it says "Siri Update in Progress; Adding support for Siri hasn't completed. Open Settings to check the status." The app does not show up in Spotlight. My phone is done Indexing and all signs point to my phone being enrolled to use the New Siri, but it isn't working at all and still has not shown up. I've tried restarting a few times. Anyone experiencing this too?

I want to share a Siri / Apple Intelligence issue I have been troubleshooting since the iOS 27 beta cycle, together with the configuration that finally resolved it. The issue started during iOS 27 beta, continued across multiple beta builds, and was still present after I updated to the official iOS 27 release. Updating iOS alone never fixed it. The main problem was that Siri / Apple Intelligence repeatedly failed to complete activation. Settings would remain stuck on: “Adding support for Siri is in progress” The Siri app would sometimes show: “Siri is not available” Siri also frequently fell back to the older floating-sphere interface instead of using the newer glowing-edge interface. Sometimes the new Siri interface would suddenly appear and work normally, but later it would fall back again. The most repeatable symptom involved charging. When the iPhone was connected to power, Siri sometimes appeared to finish downloading and would temporarily work normally. After disconnecting the charger, Siri could become unavailable again or the system would behave as though Siri resources still needed to be downloaded. Connected to power → Siri sometimes worked normally Disconnected from power → Siri could return to downloading / unavailable There was also a difference between Wi-Fi and cellular data. On cellular data, iOS sometimes said Wi-Fi was required to continue downloading Siri resources. After connecting to Wi-Fi, it would return to “Adding support for Siri is in progress” and still fail to finish. Apple Intelligence storage also behaved abnormally. At one point, iPhone Storage showed approximately 7.37 GB in use. Later, the Apple Intelligence entry disappeared and storage usage decreased, then reappeared after changing language settings. Before finding the working configuration, I had already tried restarting, Reset All Settings, Recovery Mode update, multiple iOS 27 beta builds, the official iOS 27 release, different Wi-Fi networks, cellular data, disabling VPN/proxy, changing languages, removing additional languages, switching between old and new Siri, and leaving the phone on Wi-Fi and power for long periods. None provided a permanent fix. After repeated testing, the issue appeared to involve network transport, routing consistency, Siri language / voice configuration, Siri AI authorization, and local asset refresh. My final working setup was: System language: English (United States) Region: United States Siri language: English (United States) Siri voice: American Apple Intelligence enabled Proxy environment: Shadowrocket Proxy transport My proxy node uses an AnyTLS-based configuration. Previously, UDP traffic was enabled. During troubleshooting, some Apple / iCloud requests appeared unreliable when using UDP / QUIC through this node, with timeouts, resets, or repeated retries. I changed the node transport to TCP only while keeping TLS enabled: TCP + TLS After this change, Apple-related authentication and asset requests appeared much more stable. Routing rules This was one of the most important changes. I use split tunneling so that Chinese apps can remain DIRECT while selected traffic uses the proxy. However, some Apple traffic was being matched by broader fallback rules such as: apple.com,DIRECT GEOIP,CN,DIRECT This meant some Siri / iCloud / Apple Intelligence requests could use the proxy while related requests went directly through the local connection. I added these high-priority rules and moved them above broader Apple / DIRECT / GEOIP rules: DOMAIN-KEYWORD,gateway,PROXY DOMAIN-KEYWORD,probe,PROXY DOMAIN-KEYWORD,gdmf,PROXY DOMAIN-KEYWORD,guzzoni,PROXY DOMAIN-SUFFIX,iphone-ld.apple.com,PROXY Rule priority was important. If broader DIRECT rules were above these entries, the specific traffic could still bypass the proxy. After moving these rules to the top, the relevant Apple traffic consistently followed the same network path. Split tunneling still worked normally, and apps such as WeChat, Alipay, Meituan, and Xiaohongshu could remain DIRECT. Language and Siri configuration I standardized the Siri environment: System Language: English (United States) Region: United States Siri Language: English (United States) Siri Voice: American I selected an American Siri voice, such as Voice 4. After changing everything to the same English (US) environment, asset loading became more consistent. Enable Siri AI I manually selected: Try Siri AI (Beta) and completed the authorization process. I also temporarily disabled “Require Face ID” for the standalone Siri app while troubleshooting. I cannot confirm that this directly affected the download, but it removed an extra authentication layer while testing. Refresh local language assets I opened Apple’s built-in Translate app, deleted the downloaded English (US) language package, and downloaded it again. My goal was to refresh the local language / MobileAsset download state. I cannot confirm that Translate directly controls Siri’s generative models, but this appeared to help clear the remaining stuck asset state. Final installation step After making all of the above changes, I connected the iPhone to Wi-Fi and power, locked the screen, and left the device idle for approximately 10–15 minutes. After this, the Siri / Apple Intelligence state finally changed and remained stable. Current result: Siri consistently uses the full-screen glowing-edge interface Type to Siri works correctly Siri no longer falls back to the legacy floating-sphere interface “Siri is not available” no longer appears “Adding support for Siri is in progress” is no longer permanently stuck Apple Intelligence remains active Siri continues working after disconnecting the charger Split tunneling still works normally Most importantly, the previous charging-related behavior is gone. Before: Connected to power → Siri temporarily worked Disconnected from power → Siri failed again Now: Siri continues to work normally whether or not the device is connected to power. I am not claiming that Apple has officially documented every domain or internal process above as the root cause. These findings are based on repeated troubleshooting and network behavior observed on my own device. However, this issue persisted from the iOS 27 beta cycle through the official iOS 27 release, and standard system updates alone did not resolve it. In my case, the successful fix only came after correcting the combination of: TCP transport + consistent Apple routing + English (US) system / Siri configuration + Siri AI authorization + local asset refresh. If anyone else is experiencing “Adding support for Siri is in progress,” “Siri is not available,” repeated fallback to the legacy Siri UI, Apple Intelligence storage disappearing / reappearing, or Siri working while charging but failing after unplugging, I would be interested to know whether the same configuration also resolves the issue on other devices.
