iOS 27 Leaks: Apple has announced a major update to Apple Intelligence, bringing a new set of features across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, AirPods, and Apple Vision Pro. Built on a new architecture using Apple Foundation Models, the update is designed with privacy at its core, using on-device processing and Private Cloud Compute. The features span photo editing, browsing, home management, accessibility, and more.
Developer testing begins today, with a public beta arriving next month and a full rollout expected this fall with iOS 27.
10 New Apple Intelligence Features Coming With iOS 27
Spatial Reframing in Photos
Users can now fix the composition of a photo after it has already been taken. Spatial Reframing lets you drag and shift the perspective of an image in real time, as if you had physically moved the camera during the original shot. New content is only generated where the perspective shifts, keeping the rest of the image consistent.
The Extend Tool
The Extend tool lets users expand the edges of a photo to give subjects more space, fix a crooked horizon, or change the aspect ratio, all without losing any part of the original image.
Upgraded Clean Up Tool
The Clean Up tool now removes unwanted objects from photos with better quality and more natural-looking results, even in complex scenes.

Tab Organisation in Safari
Safari can now automatically group open tabs into relevant topics. If you are planning a trip, for instance, all your travel tabs get sorted together automatically.
Notify Me in Safari
Users can ask Safari to monitor any web page for changes, such as a price drop or a product restock. When Safari spots a change, it sends a notification.
Automatic Password Upgrades
The Passwords app can now detect weak or compromised passwords and automatically update them to stronger ones, navigating through websites on the user’s behalf.
Photorealistic Image Playground
Image Playground now supports photorealistic image generation through a new generative model running on Private Cloud Compute. Users can describe edits or use touch to highlight and move objects within an image.
Call Context in the Phone App
When calling a business, the Phone app will automatically surface relevant information from your Mail, such as a confirmation number or reservation code. This runs entirely on-device, and nothing is shared with Apple.

Smarter Home App
The Home app now groups related accessory notifications into a single update, generates text descriptions of security camera footage, and lets users search through clips to find specific moments, like a package delivery.
Describe a Shortcut
Users can now build an automation in the Shortcuts app simply by describing what they want in plain language. Apple Intelligence assembles the required steps, and users can refine them by describing any changes they want to make.
Apple Intelligence features will be available this fall with iOS 27 on iPhone 16 models or later, iPhone 15 Pro, and other supported devices.
