Apple unveiled its highly anticipated AI system, “Apple Intelligence,” at WWDC 2024. While the promise of an intelligent assistant across iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices this fall is exciting, there are some limitations to be aware of.
The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max will be the first devices to be compatible with it
MacRumors discovered hints within the iOS 18 beta code suggesting Apple Intelligence might have a waitlist system. Phrases like “Join the Graymatter waitlist” (Graymatter being the codename) indicate potential limitations on user access during the initial launch.
Furthermore, code mentions “unusually slow response times” in unsupported areas, suggesting a phased rollout to manage server load and ensure functionality. Whether this “limited preview” restricts the number of users or limits the available features of Apple Intelligence initially remains unclear. It’s also possible that both limitations might be implemented simultaneously. Currently, it is only compatible with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. While all iPhone 16 models expected later this year will likely support it, users will have to wait until at least September.
The good news is that Apple Intelligence extends beyond iPhones. iPad and Mac devices equipped with Apple’s M series chips will also be able to access this intelligent assistant.
