Apple will now let Siri AI perform actions across third-party apps. As part of the iOS 27.3 update rolling out on Tuesday, Apple announced developers<\/a> can now integrate Siri AI\u2019s new features in \u201call apps,\u201d allowing the voice assistant to draw on a user\u2019s personal context, process natural language prompts, and use on-screen awareness to complete requests.<\/p>\n

The update, which is rolling out as part of a Developer Preview, also adds a new \u201capp skills\u201d feature that third-party developers can create to combine several tasks into a single action. In Apple\u2019s developer documentation<\/a>, the company says users won\u2019t have to mention an app\u2019s name in their request while it\u2019s in the foreground, during a Live Activity, or in a conversation with Siri AI about the app.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, a person might request a ride with a ride share app, follow updates to the app\u2019s Live Activity while they wait for their ride to arrive, then request to move the pickup location to a different address by saying \u2018Hey Siri, change my ride pickup to a new address,\u2019\u201d Apple says. As noted by 9to5Mac<\/a>, Apple previously made a smaller set of features available to third-party developers.<\/p>\n

Apple is bringing Siri AI\u2019s expanded capabilities to its own apps as well, including Calendar, Files, Finder, Journal, Mail, Maps, Messages, Music, Notes, Photos, Preview, Reminders, Safari, Shortcuts, and Weather apps. \u201cUsers can do things like find a coffee shop they visited last week or archive files that haven\u2019t been opened in over a year,\u201d according to Apple. The company notes that users can ask Siri AI what it can do in each app.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple will now let Siri AI perform actions across third-party apps.
