Siri của Apple sẽ dẫn đầu trong việc ra mắt tính năng sức khỏe thính giác cho iOS 18.1 và AirPods Pro 2 vào tuần sau

23rd October 2024 – (Cupertino) Apple has officially confirmed that the eagerly awaited iOS 18.1 update along with the AirPods Pro 2 hearing health features will commence rolling out to users next week, as disclosed in a recent press release.

The upcoming AirPods Pro 2 hearing aid enhancement, requiring iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1, is slated to become publicly available in the coming week. This development signals the imminent arrival of the Apple Intelligence era for iPhone and iPad users.

With the imminent software updates, users can anticipate accessing a suite of initial Apple Intelligence features, such as Writing Tools for proofreading and rewriting, Smart Replies for prompt message responses, Notification Summaries, Clean Up functionality in Photos, and a revamped Siri interface.

Furthermore, owners of the AirPods Pro 2 can look forward to the earbuds facilitating a hearing test and serving as FDA-approved over-the-counter hearing aids for individuals with mild to moderate hearing impairments. However, to unlock these capabilities, users must ensure the installation of the firmware update for AirPods alongside iOS 18.1 on their iPhones.

Apple Intelligence is primed to operate seamlessly on select top-tier iPhones, including the iPhone 16 series and the iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max models. Regrettably, users of devices as recent as the iPhone 15 will not have access to the array of features that Apple Intelligence offers.

Previously announced by Apple for an October rollout, the delayed availability of Apple Intelligence features for owners of the latest iPhone models such as iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max may evoke a sense of anticipation among enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the forthcoming enhancements on their devices.

As the timeline for the introduction of Apple Intelligence crystallises, users can begin anticipating the transformative capabilities that Apple’s AI framework is set to deliver.

For those eagerly awaiting more advanced Apple Intelligence features like ChatGPT integration in Siri and the voice assistant’s comprehensive overhaul featuring on-screen awareness and personalised contextual understanding, patience is advised as these features will only be accessible after a while.

Scheduled for release as part of iOS 18.2, features such as Genmoji, Image Playground, ChatGPT integration, and Visual Intelligence are anticipated to enter beta testing in the coming month. Apple has assured that all these features are slated for release “later this year,” with the clock ticking towards the end of 2024, implying imminent access to these AI tools. However, Siri’s extensive transformation is earmarked for a 2025 rollout.

The impending release next week is exclusive to US English users, with global users having to wait until December to experience the functionalities of Apple Intelligence. While users can adjust their device’s language settings, the smooth operation of Apple Intelligence may encounter challenges with regional dialects. Information regarding the availability of AI features for Apple users in the EU remains undisclosed.

The impending public availability of Apple Intelligence on iPhones draws closer, with release candidates for iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, tvOS 18.1, visionOS 2.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1 being made available today (October 21).

These release builds follow the recent release of beta six versions of each operating system on October 14. A release candidate signals the final pre-release iteration of software before its full public launch, ensuring stability and readiness for user adoption.

Excitement has been building around Apple’s rendition of AI, Apple Intelligence, since the debut of the iPhone 16, and with the imminent rollout of the iOS 18.1 update, users can begin to experience the first wave of AI tools on their devices.

Recent beta releases for iOS 18.1 have introduced a selection of AI tools to the iPhone, including the groundbreaking Hearing Aid feature for AirPods Pro 2, alongside an at-home hearing test designed for individuals aged 18 and above.

Enthusiasts can now register for the public or developer betas to trial these features, while Apple advises against testing the betas on primary devices. Notable features accompanying the update encompass writing tools, summarised audio transcripts, and email summaries.

While not all of the Apple Intelligence features announced by Apple are arriving with iOS 18, the initial wave is poised for release alongside the forthcoming iOS 18.1 update.
