iOS 18.2 brings Apple Intelligence upgrades, including image generation with Image Playground, ChatGPT-integrated Siri, and various enhancements and fixes.
There's an Image Playground app and Messages integration for creating stylized images based on prompts and images of you and your friend
Image Wand is for adding images to what you've written in the Notes app. On iPad, you can use the Apple Pencil to make a rough sketch and have Image Wand turn it into something nicer.
Genmoji lets you create custom emojis in iOS 18.2, similar to Image Playground but on a smaller scale. On iOS 18.1, users can view and learn about Genmoji but can't create them.
Siri can now use ChatGPT for advanced queries, image and text generation, and on-screen responses. The feature is opt-in, account-free, and can be set to bypass permission prompts.
On iPhone 16, Visual Intelligence identifies objects and places through the camera. By pressing Camera Control, you can view restaurant details, copy or read text aloud, search online, and even ask ChatGPT
The Rewrite Writing Tools feature now offers more flexibility, allowing users to specify tones or styles, like adding dynamic words or transforming an email into a poem.
iOS 18.2 expands Apple Intelligence to include English variants for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UK, eliminating the need to set your iPhone to U.S. English..
