Apple Intelligence, the powerful and privacy-first AI system from Apple, is now officially available in Singapore. With today’s rollout of iOS 18.4, iPadOS 18.4, and macOS Sequoia 15.4, users in Singapore can now experience a more innovative, more intuitive Apple experience tailored to localised English and built with privacy at its core.
Apple Intelligence combines advanced generative models with personal context to deliver highly useful features like rewriting and summarising text, cleaning up photos, creating personalised emojis, and even using Siri in more natural, human-like conversations.
Smarter Writing, Faster Replies
Need to polish your resume or reword a message for a more professional tone? The new Writing Tools work across Mail, Messages, Notes, Pages, and more, helping you rewrite, proofread, and summarise text with just a few taps.
Prefer something more customized? Use Describe Your Change to specify exactly what you want, like turning a dinner invite into a playful poem.
Priority Messages in Mail spotlight urgent emails like boarding passes or last-minute invites, while Smart Reply offers ready-made responses so you’re always one tap away from a reply.
Photos, Now Cleaner and More Magical
The Clean Up tool lets you remove unwanted objects while preserving the essence of your shot.
You can also type a description like “birthday party with balloons” and the Photos app will intelligently search and compile the right visuals.
Plus, the Memories feature now lets you create personalised movies just by describing what you want to see.
Create Visual Magic with Image Playground & Genmoji
Unleash your creativity with Image Playground, a feature that lets you design fun and original images based on themes, costumes, and locations.
Even emojis get an upgrade. Genmoji lets you type a description or use a friend’s photo to generate a personalised emoji, complete with accessories like sunglasses or hats. You can drop Genmoji into messages or use them as stickers and reactions.
Notes That Think and Draw
The Notes app now supports Image Wand, which transforms rough sketches or even empty spaces into polished images all based on the content surrounding your notes.
It’s perfect for turning a scribbled layout into a shareable concept.
Stay in the Zone with Focused Notifications
Priority Notifications and notification summaries help you cut through the noise. You’ll only get the alerts that matter.
And with the new Reduce Interruptions Focus mode, your attention remains exactly where you want it.
You can also record, transcribe, and summarise calls and audio notes directly from the Phone and Notes apps with full transparency and automatic consent notifications during calls.
Siri, Reimagined with ChatGPT Integration
With Apple Intelligence, Siri becomes more conversational, context-aware, and visually updated. Whether you’re asking how to screen record or where your next meeting is, Siri can follow the flow and help you faster.
Apple has also integrated ChatGPT directly into Siri and the Writing Tools. Get help brainstorming or creating a visual without ever leaving the app. You don’t even need a ChatGPT account, and if you use it without one, your data won’t be stored or used for training.
Explore the World Around You with Visual Intelligence
Visual Intelligence is a new feature that helps users understand their environment. Point your iPhone at a flyer, and it can create a calendar event. It can even identify plants or teach you more about a class diagram.
Available on iPhone 15 Pro and later, this tool brings real-world understanding into your digital workflow.
Privacy-Preserving AI That Works for You
Unlike most AI systems, Apple Intelligence prioritises on-device processing, ensuring your data never leaves your device unless necessary. When more power is needed, Private Cloud Compute kicks in using Apple silicon-powered servers that never store or share your data.
In a move that sets a new industry standard, Apple allows independent experts to inspect the server code that powers Private Cloud Compute, guaranteeing transparency and accountability.
Available Now in Singapore
Apple Intelligence is now live in Singapore, fully supporting localised English. Other supported languages include simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish.
