Apple Says More Personalized Siri Will Be Delayed

ByEmily Dolloff

As we’ve been covering Apple’s staged rollout of Apple Intelligence, one announced feature that has remained tantalizingly in the future is the enhanced version of Siri that would have onscreen awareness, understand your personal context, and be able to interact with apps. The company has quietly admitted that this new version of Siri isn’t ready yet and now says it anticipates rolling it out in the coming year. That probably means in conjunction with some version of iOS 19 and macOS 16, expected to debut in September 2025 and receive updates through early 2026. In short, don’t expect this new Siri anytime soon. We’d prefer to see Apple get Siri to succeed at all the tasks it’s supposed to handle now—too many of the things we try to do with Siri fail.

Social Media: If, like us, you’ve been eager to try the Apple Intelligence-enhanced version of Siri that Apple announced at its Worldwide Developer Conference in 2024, we’re sorry to say that we all have longer to wait.

    I am in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show and it is bigger than ever. My Apple watch is happy with all the walking I am doing but my feet are not feeling the love. The show is a great way to see what is on the horizon and of course, I had meetings interspersed with walking the show floor. Naturally, the meetings were far apart so I spent a lot of time walking or on buses or cabs.

    This show is pretty different from previous years but still is window to future products. See my short report below and I will follow up next week in Kibbles with a more in-depth look. This week’s kibbles exclusive special is a “refurbished 13-inch MacBook Air with a 512GB hard drive bundled with Applecare and a 2TB Time Capsule for $1759.99”:http://www.smalldog.com/wag900002113/special-save-150-on-refurbished-mac-bundle-and-keep-it-safe The MacBook Air is one of my most favorite laptops and this refurbished bundle is a great way to upgrade your mac and ensure your data is secure for the new year!
