iOS 18.2 introduces exciting new AI capabilities like Image Playground and Genmoji, but initially only for specific English locales. However, there's a workaround for users in other regions like India to access these features early by adjusting language settings.
FollowApple has finally released the much-anticipated iOS 18.2. A number of improvements designed to boost iPhone users' creativity and productivity are included in the latest OS upgrade. Additionally, iOS 18.2 offers new AI capabilities from the Apple Intelligence suite, such as Image Playground, Genmoji, Visual Intelligence, ChatGPT interaction with Siri, and more, to users of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series.
With iOS 18.2, Apple is now extending support for localised English in addition to these new AI functions. In addition to the United States, this also includes Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. The formal launch of Apple Intelligence's English (India) localisation is scheduled for 2025, thus Indian consumers would have to wait a little while longer. There is a workaround, though, if you're keen to test out the new Apple Intelligence capabilities beforehand in India.
