Apple Intelligence Fully Supported in the EU with iOS 18.4

Key Points:

  • iOS 18.4 Beta: The first beta of iOS 18.4 brings full support for Apple Intelligence to EU users.
  • Initial Limitation: After debuting at WWDC last June, Apple announced that Apple Intelligence would not be supported in the EU due to regulatory hurdles.
  • Regulatory Compliance: The delay was specifically related to the EU's Digital Markets Act, which imposed different requirements on mobile devices compared to desktops.
  • Expanded Access: Beta users in the EU can now access Apple Intelligence, with public availability expected in April via iOS 18.4.
  • Language Support: The update also aligns with expanded language support for Apple Intelligence.
  • Future Plans: AI access remains blocked only in China, with hopes that this will change soon.
