Apple Intelligence offers several features for third-party apps, enhancing their capabilities and integration with the system. Here are the key offerings:

  1. Device Semantic Index: This feature organizes personal information from across apps, allowing Apple Intelligence to ground each request in the relevant personal context.

  2. App Intents Toolbox: This toolbox understands the capabilities of apps and can tap into them on a user's behalf. It enables deeper and more natural access to app data and capabilities, particularly through Siri and the Shortcuts app. Developers can expose their app's capabilities using app intents, which Siri will be able to call over time.

  3. Language and Image Features:

    • Writing Tools: These tools help users rewrite, proofread, and summarize text. Apps using standard UI frameworks to render text fields will automatically get these writing tools, and developers can customize their behavior using the new textview delegate API.
    • Genmoji: This feature allows users to create new emojis to match any moment, providing a playful and easy-to-use experience.
    • Image Playground: This API enables effortless integration of image creation features into apps without the need for developers to train their own models.
  4. Privacy and Security: Apple Intelligence is designed with privacy and security from the ground up. For example, virtual images of every production build of private cloud compute will be publicly available for inspection by security researchers.
