Apple starts giving Siri AI access to third-party apps

The Verge
Apple now allows developers to integrate Siri AI capabilities into third-party apps, enabling contextual actions and natural language processing.

Summary

Apple has announced that with the iOS 27.3 update, developers can integrate Siri AI's features into third-party apps, allowing the voice assistant to use personal context, process natural language, and be aware of on-screen content. The update, part of a Developer Preview, includes an "app skills" feature that combines tasks into a single action. Users can make requests without naming the app when it's in the foreground, during a Live Activity, or when discussing the app with Siri AI. Apple is also extending these capabilities to its own apps, such as Calendar, Mail, Maps, and Photos, enabling tasks like finding a recently visited coffee shop or archiving old files. Users can ask Siri AI what it can do within each app.
