Apple adds AI-powered Siri, enhanced proofreading and revamped search in iOS 27

Apple released iOS 27 this week, bringing several new capabilities that are expected to see frequent use. The update includes a completely rebuilt Siri that leverages generative AI, allowing users to ask a broader range of questions and receive detailed answers, as well as perform more actions across devices. Apple also introduced an AI-enhanced proofreading system that expands spellcheck with contextual word suggestions and adds a grammar-checking tool; suggested corrections appear in blue underlines, while traditional misspellings remain red. Users can disable the feature in Settings if desired. Additionally, Spotlight search has been reengineered with deeper integration of Siri and a continuously updated content index, improving relevance of results. The same search architecture has been applied to the Photos and Mail apps, providing more accurate findings across those platforms.
