Tech & AI | July 16, 2024, 7:53 p.m.

Apple's upcoming software updates this fall, including iOS 18, are packed with exciting features and enhancements. However, not all of the announced capabilities will be available right away. Some key features, such as Siri's on-screen awareness and in-app actions, Apple Mail upgrades, and Vision Pro enhancements like Mac Virtual Display and Multiview, are set to launch later in the year. Additionally, the new emoji set, including the highly anticipated exhausted face, won't be ready until 2024 or even early 2025. The non-beta versions of Apple Intelligence will see ongoing improvements post-launch, and the ability to drag and drop files between iPhone and Mac devices, as well as home app improvements, will also be delayed. Overall, while the initial iOS 18 release will bring significant updates, users can look forward to even more enhancements in the coming months and year ahead.
