\t\"Apple<\/p>\n

One of the core Apple Intelligence features to date has been Visual Intelligence. It started off in a rather limited capacity<\/a> through Camera Control, but with iOS 26, the company expanded it to screenshots. I\u2019ve found those capabilities very useful thus far, and I\u2019d love to see Apple take it even further with iOS 27.<\/p>\n

With iOS 26, Apple Intelligence offers three new<\/a> Visual Intelligence features for screenshots: the ability to quickly create Calendar events, the ability to search for similar images (useful for shopping), and the ability to ask ChatGPT questions about your screenshot.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve loved the ability to quickly create Calendar events with Visual Intelligence, and it\u2019s certainly made me a more avid user<\/a> of the Calendar app on my iPhone. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In my opinion, Apple could take these capabilities a step further in iOS 27, by adding Reminders to Visual Intelligence.<\/p>\n

Reminders integration<\/p>\n

There\u2019s loads of potential for Reminders in Visual Intelligence. At least personally, I\u2019d love to have the ability to quickly screenshot something and then turn said thing into a Reminder.<\/p>\n

If I\u2019m researching something, it\u2019d be nice to be able to quickly take a screenshot and turn it into a Reminder to come back to later. Think of it as a universal bookmarking tool of sorts.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, people will also text me asking them to remind me of things. (I\u2019m not sure why some people pretend I\u2019m a human reminder, but that\u2019s besides the point.) If you could quickly screenshot said text conversation and turn that snippet into a reminder, that could also be immensely helpful.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure such a feature would require much more advanced analysis than the calendar feature does, since figuring out what someone is actually requesting a reminder for is a lot more complicated than just finding a date\/time and title. <\/p>\n

I do think this capability has a lot of potential, though. It could even work nicely with Visual Intelligence in Camera Control, where you could take a photo of something and generate a reminder from it.<\/p>\n

Wrap up<\/p>\n

iOS 27 will be unveiled in just over a week at WWDC26. Apple Intelligence should be the star of the show, with some of the major features being a new Siri app<\/a>, an upgraded Camera app<\/a> with a new Siri mode, as well as Apple finally delivering on its long-promised smarter Siri, thanks to a new partnership with Google<\/a>.<\/p>\n
