Apple released iOS 18.2 beta 1 on Wednesday and it comesd with new Apple Intelligence features. While the new ChatGPT integration does improve Siri, other features include the Image Playground and Genmoji. We will cover all of these, but first, let’s get to the update. If you’re already running iOS 18.1 beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update and you might see the prompt for the stable iOS 18.1 update which Apple also released Wednesday. Scroll to the bottom of the page for the link to the iOS 18.2 beta 1 update.Meet the new and improved Siri
After installing the update, go to Settings > Apple Intelligence & Siri and look for the ChatGPT button under the heading “Extend Apple Intelligence & Siri.” Tap on ChatGPT to go to the ChatGPT page where you can sign into your ChatGPT account. Note: Until I set up this page, Siri wouldn’t work at all on my iPhone 15 Pro Max after installing the beta.

On certain questions that you ask Siri that the digital assistant can’t answer, you will receive a notification asking you if you want ChatGPT to provide the response or if you’d rather get your answer from the web.
Next, go to the Messages app and press on any chat. Press the “+” button to the left of the text field. Tap on Image Playground.
