Apple Intelligence works only on these Apple devices: Full list of iPhone, iPad, Mac

Apple Intelligence arrived earlier this week as part of the highly-anticipated iOS 18.1 update, marking the Tim Cook-led company’s official foray into the consumer-facing AI sector. Although Apple’s new AI tools are not as effective as their counterparts on Google and Samsung smartphones, they still give users of Apple devices something to look forward to and pave the way for future Apple ecosystems. In addition to iPhones, Apple Intelligence also works on a slew of iPad and Mac devices through the latest iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1 updates.

How to get Apple Intelligence on your device in India

The first instance of Apple Intelligence works only when the device language is set to US English, irrespective of the user’s region. That means the company’s AI features work in India, as well. (Apple will roll out support for Indian English later this year.)

Eligible iPhone, iPad, and Mac users first need to head to device settings and download the latest update. After the update has been installed, users will see a new Apple Intelligence & Siri option in the Settings. The new AI features, however, will not be turned on by default and users will have to get on a waitlist to try Apple Intelligence. To change the device language from English (India) to English (United States), visit the Apple Intelligence & Siri settings. Now, tap ‘Join the Apple Intelligence Waitlist’ and wait for Apple to accept the request. After the request is approved, the Apple Intelligence features will be available.
