Apple’s iOS 18.4 is dropping soon, and with it comes Apple Intelligence for Indian iPhone users.

Apple is gearing up to roll out iOS 18.4 next month, and for Indian iPhone users, this update is a big deal. It finally brings Apple Intelligence support in Indian English, meaning users will now get AI-powered features tailored to their dialect. But that’s not all—iOS 18.4 also comes packed with new tools designed to improve productivity, personalisation, and privacy.

Currently in beta, the update is set to launch in April 2025. Here’s everything iPhone users—especially those in India—can look forward to.

Apple Intelligence to finally supports Indian languages

One of the most anticipated additions to iOS 18.4 is Apple Intelligence’s support for Indian languages, including Indian English, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Marathi, and a whole lot more. This means AI-powered tools like ChatGPT-integrated Siri, AI writing assistants, Image Playground, and Priority Notifications will now be better optimised for Indian users.

AI writing tools

Apple’s AI writing tools, integrated into apps like Notes, Mail, and Pages, are set to enhance how users write, edit, and summarise text. These tools can help refine emails, rephrase notes, and even generate content with ease—all in a way that understands Indian English better than ever before.

ChatGPT-powered Siri

Siri is about to get a serious intelligence boost. With ChatGPT integration, Siri will be able to handle more complex queries, provide detailed responses, and even engage in more natural conversations.

For those who prefer typing to voice commands, Apple has refined the "Type to Siri" feature. Now, when Siri responds, the keyboard will automatically collapse, making interactions feel more fluid.

Image Playground: AI-generated images

Apple’s Image Playground feature allows users to create AI-generated images in different styles, including animation and sketches. It works as a standalone app but is also integrated into Messages and Notes, making it easy to generate visuals on the fly.

Priority Notifications for smarter alerts

iOS 18.4 introduces Priority Notifications, which use AI to highlight the most important alerts directly on the Lock Screen. Users can customise which apps are included in the priority sorting, ensuring that only the most relevant notifications stand out.

Visual Intelligence

Apple is also rolling out Visual Intelligence in India, for the 16 series. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are also getting this update globally. This AI-powered tool analyses images to provide contextual information, such as identifying objects, landmarks, or even text in different languages. With support for Indian English, it’ll now be better at recognising local landmarks, street signs, and regional scripts.

Other than these AI tools and Apple Intelligence, iOS 18.4 will also come with a few other features

More productivity and customisation features

For those who love tweaking their iPhone experience, iOS 18.4 brings new Control Center toggles for Cellular and Wi-Fi signal strength. The Brightness and Sound sliders are also getting a fresh look, changing colour when adjusted for better visibility.

Apple is also introducing an Ambient Music feature, designed to create a more immersive experience. Users can choose from four sound categories—Sleep, Chill, Productivity, and Well being—to set the perfect background mood.

Privacy and security updates

Apple is also doubling down on security with iOS 18.4. For example, Privacy Indicator Dots, which appear when the camera or microphone is in use, will be made more visible. Furthermore, the password app is also getting a major update.
