iPadOS 18.1 now available with these Apple Intelligence features
After months of beta testing, Apple is finally releasing iPadOS 18.1. This new version of iPadOS 18 includes several Apple Intelligence features in addition to some other tweaks. Here’s everything you need to know.
iPadOS 18.1 adds the following Apple Intelligence features:
Writing Tools: Users can rewrite, proofread, and summarize text nearly everywhere they write, including Mail, Notes, Pages, and third-party apps
Improved Siri: With a new design, Siri can maintain context between requests. Even if you stumble over words or shift what you’re saying mid-sentence, Siri can understand what you actually want.
Priority notifications: They appear at the top of the stack, letting you know what to pay attention to at a glance. Notifications are summarized, so you can scan them faster.
Priority messages in Mail: Elevate time-sensitive messages to the top of your inbox, like an invitation that has a deadline today or a check-in reminder for your flight this afternoon.
Reduce interruptions: With iPadOS 18.1, an all-new Focus Mode understands the content of your notifications and shows you the ones that might need immediate attention, like a text about picking up your child from daycare later today.
Email summarization: Tap to reveal a summary of a long email in the Mail app and cut to the chase.
Smart Reply in Mail: Quickly draft an email response with all the right details. Apple Intelligence can identify the question you were asked in an email and offer relevant selections to include in your response.
Clean Up: This Photos app feature can identify and remove distracting objects in the background of a photo without accidentally altering the subject.
Summarization: Apple Intelligence can now summarize more than just Messages and Mail notifications.
It's important to note that these iPadOS 18.1 Apple Intelligence features are available for iPad models with an M1 or A17 Pro chips or newer.
This software update also tweaks the iPad's Control Center. Apple now offers all Connectivity toggles as standalone options, which means users can ditch the built-in solution for the specific buttons.
Alongside iPadOS 18.1, Apple has released iOS 18.1, watchOS 11.1, macOS 15.1, tvOS 18.1, and visionOS 2.1 updates.
