iOS 18.4 Update Is Almost Here For iPhone Users: These Big AI Features Are Coming In April
iOS 18.4 beta updates are reaching their end phase and in the next few weeks we will see the public iOS update roll out for iPhone users.
We are coming close to the end of March which means the big iOS 18.4 update is just a few weeks away from rolling out for iPhone users. Apple has faced myriad challenges in making the Siri AI work but it is delayed.
Even then, the interest around the iOS 18.4 update coming out in April is unlikely to wane, especially because the new Siri will finally become receptive to more local languages and English for people in India. Yes, Apple is finally going to support its AI features in the English India version, which means more localised responses and AI tools available to millions of iPhone users in the country.

That’s not all, EU regions will also get their first taste of Apple AI in whichever form it is available currently. Here is a quick round-up of all the features that the iOS 18.4 update will bring for billions of iPhone users next month.
Priority Notifications That Work With AI
Apple AI is going to detect important messages and alerts on your iPhone and notify them on the lock screen so that you don’t miss them. The brand will be processing the content on-device which keeps the data private. The company assures the feature is disabled by default and you can go to Settings – Notifications to try out the new AI-powered feature on select iPhone models.
Apple AI Boost In India
Even though Apple AI only worked with select versions of English, the company has allowed people in countries like India to use the AI features by setting the default language as US English but that finally changes to local settings with the iOS 18.4 version. You can choose the Indian English option from the drop down menu for Apple AI in Settings and get to try out the localised features.
Ambient Music In Control Centre
You are reading this right. Apple is bringing ambient music toggles with different moods that can be customised and even enabled on the Action Button for iPhones. You have options like Chill, Well being, Sleep and more that pick up the playlist from Apple Music but the controls are easily available on the main screen.
Recipes Coming To Apple News+
Apple News+ will help you with a series of food recipes curated from varied writers and chefs available through the platform. Apple will be adding its UI interface to simplify the menus, make them readable, get cooking tips and save the best dishes that can be tried out offline.
More Emojis
No iOS update is wrapped up without talking about new emojis and they are coming. Apple will offer: new face with bags under eyes, root vegetables, a shovel and splatter emojis with iOS 18.4 update in April.
Apple is definitely realising the quantum of work needed for AI features to work glitch-free and its early efforts have been anything but that, and we are hoping eventually Apple finds the right spot to make it tick across the board.
