While Apple is accelerating its work on iOS 27, which it plans to release in 2026, the artificial intelligence-supported innovations that will be introduced with the new version have begun to become clear. According to the latest article by Bloomberg writer Mark Gurman, three major artificial intelligence features that will directly affect the user experience will be introduced with iOS 27.
These features include a visual design innovation for Siri, a new AI-powered web search tool, and an AI assistant to help manage health data. Considering that Apple has recently increased its investments in artificial intelligence, these developments point to the company’s goal of offering a more integrated AI experience in its mobile operating system.
iOS 27 will bring a design transformation for Siri
According to Gurman’s news, Apple plans to significantly improve Siri and make it smarter and faster with iOS 26.4. This version is expected to be released in March or April 2026. However, it is reported that Siri’s design transformation has been left to iOS 27. It is stated that they are working on giving Siri a visual personality, and that this new design may even have an appearance similar to the Finder icon. Apple aims to manage user expectations by offering updates on the functionality side first; Then, it aims to make the new version of Siri more visible with visual innovation.
Another remarkable feature expected to come with iOS 27 will be an artificial intelligence-supported web search tool. It is considered that Apple is focusing on developing a more special solution that will enrich the user experience, rather than competing with Google in this regard. The AI-powered search engine is aimed to make it easier for users to access more accurate and personalized information within iOS.
Another important development is about Apple’s plans for the health field. It is stated that with iOS 27, the Health application will be comprehensively renewed and this innovation will be supported by a new service called “Health+”. This service will be able to analyze users’ health data and provide personalized recommendations through an artificial intelligence-based assistant. It is aimed to provide the user with digital health guidance based on data such as sleep patterns, exercise habits and general lifestyle.
It is considered that if Apple’s health-focused artificial intelligence assistant project is successful, the company can become a pioneer in the field of AI-based health solutions. While there is no major technology company in this field yet that has reached large audiences, Apple’s existing hardware and software integration can increase the success of initiatives in this direction.
Although various AI improvements were made within the scope of Apple Intelligence in iOS 26, most of them were relatively minor innovations. On the other hand, the three main features expected to be introduced with iOS 27 show that Apple has moved to a new stage in artificial intelligence integration.
As Gurman stated in his previous analyses, giving Siri a more humanoid and interactive structure is one of the primary goals in Apple’s long-term artificial intelligence strategy. The steps taken by the company in this direction have the potential to both strengthen the Apple Intelligence brand and transform the relationship users establish with their devices.
Apple is expected to announce these innovations at the WWDC 2026 event. Regardless, these features have become core components of iOS 27; It will clearly reveal how Apple is integrating AI more deeply throughout the system.
