Apple released iOS 18.1 on Monday, about a month after the tech giant fixed a few iPhone bugs with iOS 18.0.1. Apple brought a lot of new features to your iPhone when it released iOS 18 in September — like RCS messaging and home screen customization — and this update introduces some new features and fixes to many iPhones. The update also brings a few Apple Intelligence features to people outside the EU and China and who have an iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, as well as the iPhone 16 lineup.

On the left is my original message and on the right is the message rewritten with Apple Intelligence. I like my original better, but that’s just me.
But these aren’t all the Apple Intelligence features coming to your iPhone. For example, Apple’s AI-powered emoji generator Genmoji isn’t included in this iOS update, so it’ll be included in a future update.
These features are only available to people outside the EU and China and who have an iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, as well as the iPhone 16 lineup. If you have the base model iPhone 15 or below you won’t be able to access these features at this time.
