Apple Intelligence arrives on iPhones in French in April 2025 – LINFO.re

The end of uncertainties

After months of waiting, Apple confirmed that its toolsartificial intelligence generative will be available in French from April 2025 for European iPhone and iPad users. Meanwhile, Mac users can already explore these features via the macOS Sequoia 15.1 update, provided the language is set to US English. This announcement ends the uncertainty around Apple’s AI strategy in Europe. The deployment had been delayed due to European regulations on the opening of systems, a constraint to which Apple had to adjust, reports RTL.

An AI designed to simplify daily life

Apple Intelligence aims to transform the way users interact with their devices. Here is an overview of the first functions deployed:

– automatic notification summaries to gain clarity

Write-enabled Siri for discreet queries

magically remove unwanted elements from a photo with a simple gesture

AI-enhanced text correction and generation

Video Memories created from descriptions in the Photos app

intelligent search in emails and documents using Siri

Ultimately, AI will enable Siri to execute complex actions based on natural language instructions. Need a summary of your latest emails? Siri does it effortlessly. Are you looking for a photo of an event, but you forgot the date? Describe it vaguely, and your iPhone will find it in an instant.

A gradual and selective deployment

Apple is taking a phased approach to introducing its AI features, first making them available to English-speaking users with the iOS 18.1 update. In Europe, iPhone and iPad will not receive the full update until April 2025. However, only the most recent models will benefit from these new features. These are the iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max and iPhone 16 as well as the iPad and Macs with an M1 chip or newer. A minimum storage capacity of 4 GB will also be required.
