According to Bloombergs Mark Gurman, Apples upcoming iOS 19 release will focus more on expanding existing Apple Intelligence capabilities, rather than introducing brand new ones.Given the fact that the company is very behind on delivering on its iOS 18 Siri promises, this makes a lot of sense. Apple reportedly also postponed its plans to deliver a more conversational Siri in iOS 19, instead pushing that release to iOS 20.Outside of Siri features though, Gurman reports that iOS 19 wont have any major new AI features. Instead, well see more of what we have now, just spread across the ecosystem:The bad news is that Apple is unlikely to unveil groundbreaking new AI features at this coming WWDC. Instead, it will likely lay out plans for bringing current capabilities to more apps.It isnt quite clear what this means. Perhaps well see Apple bring their summarization features to more apps, or possibly even open up an API for developers. Its hard to say what expansion Apple could be planning, given the limited scope of its existing non-Siri features.Nonetheless, iOS 19 is looking to be more of a catch-up year for AI, rather than a huge stride forward. Apple is still planning to release the new LLM Siri backend with iOS 19.4, though the conversational assistant is delayed. Additionally, Apple has delayed its iOS 18.4 Siri features to sometime in the coming year, which could possibly mean iOS 19.My favorite iPhone accessories on Amazon:Follow Michael:X/Twitter,Bluesky,InstagramAdd 9to5Mac to your Google News feed.
