how can I integrate apple intelligence in my app

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 you can use:

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 within your app using natural language commands.

   • App Intents: Start by defining app intents for the actions your app can perform. These intents can be used by Siri and the Shortcuts app to interact with your app. Over time, Siri will gain the ability to call these intents in supported domains.
   • App Entities: Combine app intents with app entities to enable deeper integration. For example, users can refer to content from your app in a conversational manner, and Siri can bring that content into other apps.

   For more details, you can refer to the Platforms State of the Union (14:51).

2. Writing Tools: If your app uses standard UI frameworks to render text fields, it will automatically benefit from the new writing tools. These tools help users rewrite, proofread, and summarize text using Apple Intelligence's language capabilities. You can customize the behavior of these tools using the new textview Delegate API.

   • Textview Delegate API: Customize how your app behaves while writing tools are active, such as pausing syncing to avoid conflicts.

   For more information, see the Platforms State of the Union (08:44).

3. Image Playground API: This API allows you to integrate image creation features into your app effortlessly. Users can create new emojis and other images using generative models provided by Apple Intelligence.

   • Genmoji: Enables users to create new emojis to match any moment, enhancing communication within your app.

   For more details, refer to the Platforms State of the Union (08:44).

4. Spotlight API: This new API enables your app's data to be included in Siri's index, allowing Siri to search and understand your app's content more effectively.

   • Spotlight API: Use this API to make your app's entities searchable by Siri, enhancing the user's ability to find and interact with your app's data.

   For more information, see the Platforms State of the Union (14:00).

5. Machine Learning on Device: If you are running your own models, Apple provides lower-level access to the stack to take advantage of AI-accelerated hardware. This allows you to run powerful generative AI models locally on the device, ensuring low latency and better user experience while maintaining privacy.

By leveraging these tools and APIs, you can integrate Apple Intelligence into your app, providing users with powerful, context-aware features while maintaining privacy and security.
