Apple is aiming to launch the upgraded Siri that it originally previewed at WWDC 2024 in spring 2026 with iOS 26.4, according to Bloomberg.
At WWDC last year, Apple showed off how Siri would be able to do things like understand your personal context or take actions based on what’s on your screen. But in March, Apple delayed these features, saying in a statement that “it’s going to take us longer than we thought” to deliver them.
That statement vaguely said that “we anticipate” rolling out the features “in the coming year.” However, SVP of worldwide marketing Greg Joswiak clarified in an interview this week that Apple was saying 2026.
The company hasn’t decided an exact date internally, Bloomberg reports. If past trends continue, it’s possible that iOS 26.4 could arrive in March: iOS 18.4 launched on March 31st, while iOS 17.4 was released on March 5th.
Apple originally planned to release the upgraded Siri in the fall alongside the iPhone 16 lineup, Bloomberg says. In reality, Apple’s initial Apple Intelligence features – which, for Siri, only included a new design – didn’t launch until more than a month after those phones came out.
The company debuted iOS 26 this week at WWDC 2025. The biggest feature for the update is its Liquid Glass design language, but it includes Apple Intelligence-powered features like live translation on phone and video calls and the ability to use emoji as prompts to make new Genmoji.
