Apple has released the most recent iOS 18.4 update for iPhone users, finally delivering Apple Intelligence features in India after months of anticipation.

The iOS 18.4 update adds visual intelligence, which enables users to quickly learn more about the places and objects around them. The most recent iOS release also integrates ChatGPT with Writing Tools and Siri.
Apple Intelligence Notable Features
Photos: The Clean Up tool in the Photos app eliminates distracting elements from images by tapping on them. Through Image Playground, users can create imaginative photos using themes, costumes, accessories, and places.
