To integrate Apple Intelligence into your app, you can leverage several new APIs and tools introduced at WWDC 2024. Here are the key steps and features to consider:

  1. App Intents Toolbox: This toolbox allows your app to expose its capabilities to Apple Intelligence. By defining app intents, you can enable Siri and other system features to interact with your app's data and functionalities. This integration allows users to perform actions and access data more naturally and deeply through Siri and other system interfaces.

  2. Semantic Index: Apple Intelligence uses a semantic index to organize personal information from across apps. This index helps ground user requests in relevant personal context, making interactions more meaningful and context-aware.

  3. Writing Tools: If your app uses standard UI frameworks to render text fields, it will automatically benefit from system-wide writing tools. These tools help users rewrite, proofread, and summarize text. You can further customize this behavior using the new textViewDelegate API.

  4. Genmoji and Image Playground: These features allow users to create new emojis and interact with images in playful and consistent ways. If your app deals with images or emojis, integrating these tools can enhance user experience.

  5. Spotlight API: This new API enables your app's entities to be included in Siri's index, allowing for more comprehensive search capabilities and deeper integration with system-wide search features.

  6. Machine Learning and AI on Device: For apps that require lower-level access to AI and machine learning capabilities, Apple provides APIs to leverage AI-accelerated hardware on Apple devices. This allows you to run custom models efficiently on-device.

For a detailed overview and to get started with these integrations, you can watch the Platforms State of the Union session from WWDC 2024.
