Apple Intelligence is Apple’s generative AI initiative which includes the use of Large Language Models (LLM) to help the user with certain tasks such as summarizing a website in Safari, creating custom Emojis in the Messages app, helping a user write an email using a certain style, and more. While the feature will be available to those installing the iOS 18.1 Developer Beta, those waiting for the stable version of iOS 18.1 to receive it probably won’t receive the update until October.

The first Developer Beta versions of iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1 are also available to be installed today. Both of those builds will also include the Apple Intelligence feature. Additionally, Apple also released iOS 18 Public Beta 2 which does not include the ability to sign up for the Apple Intelligence Beta.

To install any of the iOS updates on your compatible iPhone, go to Settings > General > Software Update. Make sure that you are installing the correct Beta update. When you get to the Software Update page, if you own an iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max and you want to join the waitlist for Apple Intelligence, you want to install iOS 18.1 Developer Beta which will say iOS 18.1 Beta on your phone.
