Yes, you can integrate Siri into your app. Apple provides two main frameworks for this purpose: SiriKit and App Intents.
-
SiriKit: Introduced in iOS 10, SiriKit allows developers to use intents provided by the system to empower actions people already ask Siri to do, such as playing music or sending a text message. SiriKit domains are still the best ways for you to enable these kinds of features.
-
App Intents: Introduced in iOS 16, App Intents is a new framework to integrate your app with Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and more. If your app does not overlap with an existing SiriKit domain, App Intents is the right framework for you. This framework allows for deeper and more natural access to your app's data and capabilities, especially with the improvements brought by Apple Intelligence.
