Apple has just released the iOS 18.1 beta, iPadOS 18.1 beta, and macOS Sequoia 15.1 beta for iPhones, iPads, and Macs. This update introduces several eagerly awaited Apple Intelligence features, including a significantly enhanced Siri and a Photos app with natural language search capability.
However, some AI features like image generation via ChatGPT integration and Genmoji are still absent, though Apple promises these will be available later this year. While Apple Intelligence will be incorporated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia, not all features will be accessible on every device since much of the processing is done on the device itself.
Wondering if your device will support Apple Intelligence? Here’s a list of compatible devices:
iPhone:
– iPhone 15 Pro
– iPhone 15 Pro Max
– All iPhone 16 series devices (expected)
iPad:
– M1 iPad Air
– M2 iPad Air
– M1 iPad Pro
– M2 iPad Pro
– M4 iPad Pro
MacBook:
– M1 MacBook Pro
– M2 MacBook Pro

Devices that do not support Apple Intelligence features will receive the iOS 18 beta, iPadOS 18 beta, and macOS Sequoia 15 beta instead of the 18.1 versions. Additionally, Apple Intelligence features are currently restricted to the United States and require users to join a waitlist to access them immediately after installing the latest beta.
