Hold onto your phones, Aussie iPhone users — today’s update is huge! Apple has just rolled out a game-changing AI upgrade that’ll make you feel like you’re living in the future. Whether you’re snapping photos, sending messages, or just trying to get stuff done, the new features are downright impressive. Let’s dive into what’s new:
1. Clean Up Your Photos
Ever taken a beautiful photo, only to have a random stranger photobomb it? No worries — the new Clean Up feature automatically removes distractions. That person who ruined your perfect shot? Gone. Your subject? Still looking fabulous.
2. Image Playground
Want to turn your wildest ideas into art? The Image Playground lets you create unique images by typing out a description. You can even make your friend look like a superhero or a wizard (yes, really) by uploading their photo and choosing from fun themes. And, it’s integrated into Messages, so you can share these creations instantly!
3. Instant Info with Visual Intelligence
Got a question about something you see? Just point your iPhone at it! The new Camera Control lets you get instant details about objects, landmarks, or even tricky diagrams. Whether you’re shopping or studying, this AI knows a little bit about everything.
4. Genmoji — Your Own Custom Emojis
Tired of the same old emojis? Create your own with Genmoji! Just type in a description and watch as a personalized emoji pops up. You can even make one look like your bestie (sunglasses optional).
5. ChatGPT Integration
Apple’s finally added ChatGPT to Siri and the Writing Tools. Need help brainstorming or writing? Ask away! Siri might even suggest you tap into ChatGPT’s powers for faster, smarter responses.
The update, first teased in June, is Apple’s biggest AI push yet, aimed at competing with Android’s AI features. So, whether you’re a photo pro or just looking for a smarter way to get things done, your iPhone just became a much more powerful.
