Apple released the iOS 27 public beta this week, with a ton of new Siri and Apple Intelligence features.
One of the biggest changes here is the addition of an all-new Siri app.
This marks the first time that Siri has been pre-installed as a standalone app for iPhone users …
The Siri app in iOS 27 lets you revisit all your conversations with Siri and easily start new ones.
The Siri app syncs with iCloud, so you can continue conversations across all of your Apple devices.
It features a chat-style interface with a stream of your previous conversations.
You can also upload photos and files to the Siri app for analysis.
The Siri app ties into the new Siri AI and Apple Intelligence capabilities introduced in iOS 27.
This includes access to broad world knowledge, personal context of everything on your iPhone, and much more.
Siri AI can also recognize what’s on your screen and answer questions about it.
With access to that personal context, Siri AI can reference things like your messages, emails, photos, and more to answer your specific questions.
The Siri app, however, won’t be coming to all iPhone models.
It will be available on devices that support Apple Intelligence, which covers the iPhone 15 Pro and newer:
iPhone 15 Pro
iPhone 15 Pro Max
iPhone 16
iPhone 16 Plus
iPhone 16 Pro
iPhone 16 Pro Max
iPhone 17
iPhone 17e
iPhone Air
iPhone 17 Pro
iPhone 17 Pro Max
Wrap up
Apple has recently added several new iPhone apps by default, including Image Playground as part of iOS 18.2 in December 2024.
Last year’s iOS 26 update added the new Preview and Games apps for iPhone users.
