According to reports, Apple is unlikely to disclose major Siri voice assistant advancements during its next annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2025) next month. The business is thought to be focused on improving current Apple Intelligence capabilities while also adding a few new ones with the iOS 19 upgrade, which is set to be released later this year. Apple will also be more cautious about releasing new features ahead of time, after delays in launching an enhanced version of Siri at WWDC 2024.
Apple will Focus on Select AI Features for the Upcoming iOS 19 Update
According to Bloomberg, Apple will focus on upgrading Apple Intelligence capabilities that have already been released to customers rather than introducing substantial AI enhancements at WWDC 2025 in June. The business is rumored to be working on at least two new features for the impending iOS 19 upgrade.
At WWDC 2025, the firm is anticipated to reveal a new AI-powered feature that forecasts how long it will take to charge an iPhone. According to the source, it is also expected to introduce a new virtual coach to the Health app, who would use AI to analyze data gathered by an Apple Watch and other accessible information to deliver health advice.
Despite attempts to develop a more intelligent voice assistant, Apple is apparently focusing on promoting Siri and Apple Intelligence separately. The iPhone manufacturer is likely to be more careful when unveiling new features, which will be unveiled a few months before they are ready to market.
Last year, Apple unveiled a wave of AI enhancements for eligible iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. While the business has deployed a few features such as Genmoji, Writing Tools, Clean Up (Photos), and support for summarizing alerts, the most significant change — an AI-powered Siri — has yet to be released to users.
According to a new source, Apple would most likely not deploy the AI technologies introduced at WWDC 2024 until next year. The company's assistant is already trailing competing software from Google and Microsoft, as well as AI-focused companies such as Perplexity and OpenAI. We may expect to learn more about Apple's forthcoming software upgrades and enhancements during WWDC 2025, which begins on June 9.
