Apple Unveils Five New Apps: Siri AI Gets a Standalone Home, and Find My Gets a Major Overhaul
Overview
Apple has introduced five new applications, four of which were announced at WWDC 2026. The fifth was released by its subsidiary, Claris.
Siri AI is a rebuilt version of Apple's voice assistant, now with a standalone app.
Siri AI App
Siri AI represents a major rebuild of Apple’s voice assistant. For the first time, it exists as a dedicated, standalone application. The app can search the web, access general knowledge, evaluate documents, solve math problems, and take actions across other apps.
Users can interact with Siri AI by typing or speaking. Conversation history syncs seamlessly across devices via iCloud.
The app is included in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate, watchOS 27, and visionOS 27, and will be available this fall. Developer betas are currently ongoing, with access to Siri AI provided via a waitlist.
Important note: Siri AI will not be available in the European Union at launch.
