A few minutes after the presentation of its new iPhone 16, flagships of iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence, Apple announces the availability of the new software for all iPhone owners. Well, only those equipped with a compatible model.

Good news: you won't have to wait very long since iOS 18 will be available from September 16, 2024. As with every major update, there will be many new features. However, the big disappointment comes from the absence of Apple Intelligence.

No d’Apple Intelligence but quite a few new features

Is Apple behind on AI ? Announcements of deadlines on the deployment of Apple Intelligence are cause for concern. In the United States, Apple-style AI will only be available in beta form from of October. And not all features will be available. In France, you will have to wait until next year(without further details) to take advantage of the new features of Apple Intelligence.

This does not mean that iOS 18 is uninteresting. The new iPhone software welcomes many new features, in particular allowing you to further customize the interface. From the layout of the icons to their color and security-related features, iOS 18 is full of new features that transform the daily experience.

Home applications will also change a lot. Reminders will now be integrated directly into the calendar, the Photos app is changing completely to be closer to Google Photos, iMessage is transforming the messaging experience, and Mail is taking over the Gmail-style email sorting.

Be careful, depending on the model you have, not all features will necessarily be available. But Apple at least has the merit of offering the best update tracking on the market. This is also evident in the number of models that can accommodate iOS 18.
