- Bloomberg published renders of iOS 27 based on information from people with knowledge of Apple's plans, showing a redesigned Siri with a pill-shaped chat bubble from the Dynamic Island and a standalone app resembling ChatGPT's chatbot layout.
- Apple reportedly plans to let users summon the new Siri by swiping down from the top edge of the display, opening a drop-down menu with Ask, Siri, and ChatGPT options that works system-wide across iOS 27.
- The standalone Siri app includes a pill-shaped query box, attachment and voice mode buttons, and past chats viewable as a list or grid of rectangles — visually similar to Google Keep's note-block layout.
- Apple's updated Camera app adds a new "Siri" mode nestled between Photo and Portrait, plus a menu of widgets for adding or removing controls.
- The updated Photos app reportedly adds three new AI editing features alongside the existing Clean Up tool, accessible through a new AI "Tools" option.
- Mark Gurman says Apple will officially unveil the Siri overhaul at WWDC, which kicks off on June 8.
Why it matters: Apple's 'long-awaited' Siri overhaul bakes ChatGPT directly into the Siri drop-down menu as a selectable option and makes the assistant reachable system-wide from any app — mirroring Android's Gemini-on-home-button shortcut. The official reveal arrives at WWDC on June 8.
