IT Home reported on November 4 that Apple officially released the latest iOS 27.3 developer preview for iPhone today.
In IT Home's testing, “Apple Intelligence & Siri” for China launched as scheduled in the latest iOS 27.3 developer preview. After updating to the latest version of iOS, users can find the feature's settings page in Settings.
As IT Home previously reported, Apple Intelligence for China has partnered with Alibaba and integrates Qwen into some experiences. Users in China can access Qwen directly through Siri, Writing Tools, and Visual Intelligence, covering capabilities related to text and image understanding.
Apple users can access Qwen within the system by signing in to a Qwen account or using “Sign in with Apple,” without switching to a separate app. Alibaba previously confirmed that Qwen integration would extend to iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS.
The first features available to users in China focus on common, basic uses. Live Translation is integrated into Messages, FaceTime calls, and the Phone app, and supports face-to-face conversation translation with AirPods 4, AirPods Pro 2, and later models. Writing Tools offer rewriting, proofreading, and summarization; Visual Intelligence uses the camera to identify nearby objects and places; and the Clean Up tool in the Photos app can remove distracting objects from images.
Apple's China website also lists devices compatible with Apple Intelligence: the iPhone 15 Pro and newer models all support Apple Intelligence.
