iOS 18 Speculation Thread

Hmmm... didn't see anything about making stuff up... but y'all do you.

Do you think we’re making stuff up now? 🫶🏼

The Apple Intelligence beta was always going to be waitlisted — the only thing that has changed is that it will be based on 18.1/15.1 instead of 18.0/15.0.

Weird, they push 18.1 this early but then make us stand in a line, I hate lines!

I am living in the EU…

It's our turn to cry, brother!!!

 

[gwhizkids]

waitlist? whhhhhaatt?

That is not a surprise. They announced that at WWDC.

I'm so confused by this 18.1 early beta release

 

[SpecMode]

Just in case it wasn't already clear, folks: the 18.1 betas are running in parallel with the 18.0 betas, not replacing them — 18.0 is presumably on the originally planned release timeline (if anything, moving AI out of 18.0 and into 18.1 could reduce the probability of extra 18.0 builds being needed for AI-related bugfixes late in the release cycle).

Why are you surprised that there is no AI in the EU? On the day of the presentation, they already warned that it would only be released for the US and in US English and that it would be expanded to more languages and countries throughout 2025.

this year is crazy lmao

What I don't understand is why they allow installing a beta version in countries and languages where they are not going to support it at the moment. They should have restricted access only where AI can be used. I suppose that this beta will be on par with the iOS 18.0 betas in terms of bug fixes, only adding artificial intelligence models.

Be interested to know if 18.1B1 resolves the cellular bug

 

[kyemaloy]

Downloading! Intelligence shows under iOS in storage

edit: wrong thread

 

[Realityck]

Looks like based on device utilized you have access to iOS/IPadOS 18.1 or MacOS 15.1 or not.

 

[john991]

Approved too and I’m in Canada. Set region and language to US.

 

[kyemaloy]

New onboarding when it finishes downloading the intelligence files

 

[kyemaloy]

Oooo

Lame: Apple Intelligence is not currently available in the EU or China.

That we knew.
