Exploring Multilingual Capabilities of Apple Intelligence in iOS 18.4 Beta
Multi-Language Support for Apple Intelligence with iOS 18.4 Beta
With the release of iOS 18.4 beta, Apple has expanded the capabilities of Apple Intelligence to support multiple languages beyond English. This update allows users to interact with Apple Intelligence in various supported languages without changing their device settings.
Supported Languages
- English (various regions)
- French
- German
- Italian
- Portuguese (Brazil)
- Spanish
- Japanese
- Korean
- Chinese (simplified)
Multilingual Usage
Users can enter prompts in multiple languages, and Apple Intelligence will understand the language being used. For example, a user who sets their device to English but writes in Portuguese can use features like Genmoji and Writing Tools without issues. The system also provides accurate summaries for notifications, messages, and content in different languages.
Limitations and Features
- Voice Interaction with Siri: Limited to the primary language set on the device.
- Type to Siri: Works in multiple languages.
- Genmoji: Requires adding a second or third language to download additional language models.
Future Updates
iOS 18.4 is expected to be released to the public in April, and Apple will likely address some of the current limitations in future updates.
