Apple has released iOS 18.1 Beta 5 update: New features and details
One of the biggest new features in iOS 18.1 is the AI-powered tools from Apple Intelligence. These tools have the ability to rewrite, proofread, and even summarize your text. For example, after you’ve typed a text, the AI can give you suggestions and edit it in a more professional way.
With iOS 18.1, Siri gets a brand new design. You will now be able to ask Siri questions not only with your voice, but also with written commands. It is also worth noting that the new Siri gives faster and more personalized responses.
Apple has also added a number of new features to the Mail app. New features like message summaries, priority sorting and Smart Reply will help you manage your inbox more efficiently. For example, Smart Reply suggests quick responses to your incoming emails. In addition, your inbox can now be organized to prioritize messages so you don’t miss important ones.
A new Focus mode, Reduce Interruptions, allows users to receive important notifications without distractions. Artificial intelligence determines which notifications should be seen immediately and shows you only the important ones.
Apple is also adding a new feature to the Photos app. iOS 18.1’s “Clean Up” feature allows you to identify and clean up photos and videos that are taking up too much space on your device or are unnecessary. In this way, you can free up more storage space on your device.
Apple continues to roll out new features step by step and plans to release the public version of iOS 18.1 in October. Especially the AI-powered Apple Intelligence features introduced at the iPhone 16 event are sure to play a big role in this release.
