Apple activated AI on the iPhone: what you can do now that you couldn't before
After months of waiting, Apple finally activated its artificial intelligence features — called Apple Intelligence — for iPhone users in Spanish. If you have an iPhone 15 Pro or newer, you can already use them.
What can your iPhone do now?
1. Summarize notifications. Have 47 unread messages in a WhatsApp group? Your iPhone gives you a one-line summary: "They're organizing Friday's dinner, you're the only one who hasn't confirmed." No more reading 47 messages to find out what's important.
2. Rewrite any text. Select an email, message, or note and ask it to make it more professional, friendlier, or more concise. You wrote "hey, I need that now" and it converts it to "Hello, could you please send me the document at your earliest convenience? Thank you."
3. Create custom images. You can generate cartoon-style images from descriptions or from photos in your gallery. Ideal for custom stickers or fun images to share.
4. Improved Siri. Siri now understands what you ask better and can do more complex things. You can say "find the photos from mom's birthday last year and send them via WhatsApp" and it does it.
5. Remove objects from photos. Did someone photobomb your picture? Tap the object or person you want to remove and it disappears, with AI filling in the background automatically.
How to activate it? Go to Settings → Apple Intelligence and Siri → Turn on Apple Intelligence. You need an iPhone 15 Pro or later, and the device language set to Spanish. The initial download may take a few minutes.
About privacy: Apple assures that most processing happens directly on your phone, without sending your data to the cloud. When more power is needed, it uses special servers where data is deleted immediately after processing.
