iOS 18.2: Expanded AI Language Support

iOS 18.2 Expands Apple Intelligence Language Support

iOS 18.2 introduces localized English support for Apple Intelligence in five new regions: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UK. This allows users in these regions to utilize AI features without changing their system language to US English, as was previously required with iOS 18.1.

Users can update their language settings by going to Settings > General > Language & Region. This update builds upon previous AI features introduced in iOS 18.1. While this update focuses on English-speaking regions, Apple plans to expand language support further with iOS 18.4 in April. For related updates on iOS, check out iOS 18.3: A Look Ahead.
