apple, iOS 27 It is preparing to transform Siri from an assistant that only takes commands into a full chat experience. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman’s WWDC preview, the company will offer the new Siri with conversational logic similar to Claude and ChatGPT. However, Apple can use Siri chats Syncs between devices via iCloud and this detail will make a significant difference in usage from iPhone to Mac.
The new Siri will be built directly into Apple’s operating systems and will also have a separate Siri app It will present a chat screen. Thus, a conversation that starts on the iPhone will continue where it left off on the iPad or Mac. With this move, Apple will not confine users’ conversations with the assistant to the limits of a single device. On the other hand, the company is preparing options similar to Messages in Settings to manage this chat history.
According to the information provided by Gurman, Siri chats will come with automatic deletion options. Users chat history 30 days later, 1 year later or never will set it not to delete. Additionally, the presence of these options in Settings shows that Apple will make the control on the privacy side more visible. This detail will bring the conversation history logic familiar to competitors such as ChatGPT and Claude to the Apple ecosystem.
WWDC26 keynote presentation On June 8 at 20.00 Türkiye time will start and Apple will introduce iPadOS 27, macOS 27 and other platform updates alongside iOS 27. The company will host more than 100 sessions for developers between June 8-12. In addition, the new Siri will approach the center of the presentation as one of the most anticipated topics on the Apple Intelligence side. Apple’s postponement of the personal Siri features it will introduce in 2024 increases the importance of this year’s announcement.
Apple will present the new Siri with a beta label
Gurman says Apple still has the revamped Siri in-house “beta” And “preview” He writes that he commemorates with his expressions. This information shows that Apple may introduce the new assistant gradually rather than positioning it as a completed product. However, this choice may test the patience again for users who have been waiting for Apple Intelligence features since 2024. When Apple first announced Siri in 2011, it used the phrase beta for two years.
The possibility of a waiting list for the new Siri is also on the table. According to Gurman, Apple may limit access to some Siri features when iOS 27 is released in September. The company followed a similar method in the first release of Apple Intelligence and gradually opened access. It is not yet clear which features will be on the waiting list, but chat application, personal context and advanced conversation features may be among these titles.
Apple’s previous statements indicate that personalized Siri features are at the root of the delay. According to official information provided by Reuters, the company postponed Siri’s features that better understand the user context to 2026. Thus, iOS 27 becomes one of Apple’s most critical tests on artificial intelligence, rather than just an update with a new version number. In contrast, Apple will offer more basic but visible innovations in the first stage with iCloud synchronization and automatic deletion options.
Siri’s acquisition of a ChatGPT-like chat experience will directly affect daily use in the Apple ecosystem. Having a conversation start on the phone and continue on the computer will make a practical difference, especially for those who use Apple devices together in their workflow. Additionally, automatic deletion options will allow the user to determine how long the chat history will be stored. The iOS 27 version, which will arrive in September, will clarify which features the new Siri will be available to everyone.
