What is how to turn on apple intelligence?

Apple Intelligence is not a feature that you "turn on" in a traditional sense. It's a suite of features that will be deeply integrated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. Its availability and functionality will depend on several factors:

  • Device Compatibility: Apple Intelligence will require specific hardware capabilities. It is currently only available on devices with an A17 Pro chip or M-series chip and requires a certain amount of RAM. This means older iPhones, iPads, and Macs will not be able to use all the features. To confirm your device compatibility, check the official Apple website upon the official release of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia.

  • Software Updates: You'll need to update your compatible device to the latest version of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, or macOS Sequoia when they become available. Check the Software Updates section in your device's settings to download and install the update.

  • Region and Language Support: Apple Intelligence features might not be available in all regions or languages at launch. Check the Apple's Feature Availability page to see if the functionalities of Apple Intelligence are available in your country and language.

  • Individual Feature Availability: Some AI-powered features might be released gradually over time. Keep an eye on Apple's announcements for information on specific feature rollouts.

  • Apple ID and iCloud Settings: Some Apple Intelligence features may require you to be signed in to your Apple ID and have iCloud enabled. You should check your Apple ID Settings and iCloud Settings before using Apple Intelligence functionalities.

Once your device meets the compatibility requirements, it is updated to the latest software version, and the features are available in your region and language, Apple Intelligence features should be automatically enabled in supported apps and system features. There won't be a single "on/off" switch for the entire suite of features. Instead, individual AI-powered functionalities will become available within different apps and services.
