Apple’s iOS 27 brings one of the biggest upgrades to Siri in years, transforming the assistant from a tool mainly used for simple tasks into a much more capable AI assistant. Siri can now understand complex requests, perform multi-step actions, and use information displayed on the iPhone screen to answer questions or complete tasks.
The new Siri can search through messages, emails, and files to find relevant information. It can also draft and send messages, summarize information, and perform actions based on personal context. Users can even ask Siri questions about what is currently visible on their screen or through the iPhone camera.
Apple Intelligence also introduces improvements beyond Siri. Users can create Shortcuts and automations simply by describing what they want in natural language. Safari can monitor webpages for changes, Photos receives improved editing tools, and the Passwords app can automatically change passwords on supported websites.
iOS 27 also adds several everyday improvements, including a more useful clipboard system, customizable Liquid Glass transparency, and intelligent network switching that automatically moves between Wi-Fi and mobile data when connectivity becomes unstable.
Overall, the update focuses heavily on making Siri and Apple Intelligence more integrated into everyday iPhone use, potentially giving users fewer reasons to switch to separate AI assistants for common tasks.
