Apple Intelligence will support more languages on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 Pros in 2025, but what about an EU release date?
I couldn’t wait for the Apple Intelligence segment during last week’s iPhone 16 launch event, hoping that Apple would finally announce rollout plans for Europe. The closest we got to that was when Apple announced additional languages for Apple Intelligence.
When Apple mentioned French and Spanish support, I thought it was a signal that the EU would soon get Apple Intelligence. Then I realized this wasn’t necessarily about France and Spain, which are both part of the EU. French is spoken in plenty of other places, including Canada and Switzerland. Spanish would come in handy in South America and other regions.
A week later, Apple announced another set of languages for Apple Intelligence. This time around, I’m getting stronger EU vibes. I’d still have to wait until sometime in 2025 to get Apple Intelligence in Europe.
Apple mentioned four languages during the iPhone 16 event: Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish. These are coming to Apple Intelligence next year. The company also said Apple Intelligence will be available in localized English for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United Kingdom this December.
