The iOS 18.1 public beta is here, bringing Apple Intelligence (almost) to the masses

Apple Intelligence is now a little more ready for primetime. If you have an iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max or iPhone 16, you can install the public beta of iOS 18.1 and check out some of Apple's generative AI tools.

We'll have to wait a few more weeks for the public versions of iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 18.1 to bring Apple Intelligence features to everyone with a compatible device. Writing tools (rewriting, proofreading and summarizing), email prioritization and smart replies, notification summaries and photo clean up features are also on the docket. You'll be able to create memories in the revamped Photos apps and check out the first incarnation of the redesigned, glowing Siri (including the ability to type requests to the assistant).
