Siri AI is available in more languages starting today
Apple’s reimagined Siri AI, powered by Apple Intelligence, expands to five new languages today, adding French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish to its conversational and personal capabilities.
Apple released software updates today that introduce a redesigned version of Siri, called Siri AI, which is now available in French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish. The update marks the first expansion of Siri AI beyond English, offering users in these regions a more conversational and context-aware assistant. Apple emphasizes that the new system maintains privacy while drawing on personal context to assist with tasks across messages, emails, and photos.
Siri AI integrates with Apple Intelligence to perform systemwide actions, including drafting emails from scratch, editing photo collections, and sharing them directly. The update also introduces onscreen awareness, allowing Siri to respond to questions or execute commands based on what is displayed on the user’s screen. Additionally, Siri AI leverages broad world knowledge to provide up-to-date information on a wide range of topics.
The language expansion follows the initial rollout of Siri AI in English with the iPhone 16 series and iOS 18. Apple states that the new system is designed to be more personal and powerful while preserving user privacy. The company highlights that Siri AI’s capabilities are built to work seamlessly across Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Further language support for Siri AI is planned by the end of the year, with Chinese (traditional), Norwegian, Turkish, and Vietnamese set to be added. Apple notes that the updates are part of a broader effort to make Siri AI more accessible and useful globally, aligning with the capabilities of Apple Intelligence.
