To try the Apple Intelligence beta, join the waitlist in Settings and you will be notified as soon as it is ready for your device. Both device language and Siri language must be set to US English, and device region must be set to United States.

Notably, this release appears to confirm recent reports that Apple would delay the launch of its artificial intelligence features, missing the initial release of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18. The delay will give the company more time to make improvements and fix bugs before the features arrive to consumers.
