Apple Expands Visual Intelligence With Bill Splitting, Nutrition Insights, and visionOS Support
Apple today unveiled significant upgrades to Visual Intelligence, including a new Siri mode in the Camera app that can analyze real-world objects and take actions directly from what the iPhone sees. Apple's vice president of software engineering Sebastien Marineau-Mes detailed the enhancements during today's WWDC keynote, explaining that the new ‌Siri‌ mode in Camera uses image understanding powered by Apple's foundational models to interpret what the camera is pointed at and surface contextually relevant actions. One of the headline use cases is bill splitting. Users can aim their iPhone camera at a restaurant check and immediately divide the total between friends, with Apple Cash integration allowing payments to be sent on the spot. Apple also demoed pointing the camera at a plate of food to receive nutritional insights. ‌Visual Intelligence‌ is also coming to visionOS, bringing the same capability to Apple's spatial computing platform. ‌Siri‌ can recognize real-world objects in a user's environment and surface relevant information about them on demand.Related Roundup: Apple Vision ProTags: Apple Intelligence, Visual IntelligenceBuyer's Guide: Vision Pro (Neutral)Related Forum: Apple Vision ProThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Announces 'Siri AI' at WWDC 2026
Apple today announced a significantly revamped Siri at WWDC 2026, rebranding it as "‌Siri‌ AI" and unveiling out a wave of new capabilities spanning conversational depth, system-wide integration, and a redesigned interface across platforms. Apple framed the update with the acknowledgment that "there are times when you expect more from ‌Siri‌." The company is describing the redesigned assistant as "a profoundly more capable assistant" that can now hold multi-turn conversations, draw on real-time world knowledge, and interact with personal data across apps. ‌Siri‌ is now embedded directly in the Dynamic Island, accessible by swiping down from it, pressing the side button, or saying "Hey ‌Siri‌." A revamped voice engine makes the assistant sound more expressive, with micro-adjustable voice settings available during initial setup. During Apple's keynote demo, presenters showed ‌Siri‌ handling chained, multi-step requests with apparent ease. In one sequence, a presenter asked about a Suki Waterhouse concert, was told tickets require a lottery entry, and asked ‌Siri‌ to set a reminder when the lottery opens, which it did. In another, the assistant identified a photo's landmark, pulled up navigation to that location, and surfaced photos from a recent family trip, adding a specific image to a shared family album on request. Another demo showcased ‌Siri‌'s ability to synthesize information across apps. A presenter asked about a dessert he had heard about at an event, and ‌Siri‌ located the relevant details from his Messages history. It then compiled the information into a watch-party menu, drafted a message to his contacts with the menu included, and presented send and edit options. In a further demo, a presenter asked about something his son had shared in a message and followed it up by asking ‌Siri‌ to compose an email on the subject. A new dedicated ‌Siri‌ app lets users scroll back through prior conversations and kick off new ones, with conversation history synced via iCloud so sessions carry seamlessly between devices. The app is also coming to watchOS. On the Mac, ‌Siri‌ is now also integrated into Spotlight and available via right-click context menus on any file or window. On visionOS, ‌Siri‌ AI gains a 3D visualization that users can place anywhere in their space. Tags: Siri, WWDC 2026This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Reveals New AI Architecture Built Around Google Gemini Models
Apple today announced a major overhaul of its Apple Intelligence platform, revealing a new architecture built on foundation models developed in collaboration with Google using the technologies behind the Gemini family. The new architecture centers on Apple Foundation Models co-developed with Google, which Apple says are adapted to run both on-device and on servers through its existing Private Cloud Compute infrastructure. Apple described the collaboration as a "deep" one that it says unlocks what it called a "huge upgrade" for ‌Apple Intelligence‌, bringing state-of-the-art understanding and reasoning capabilities as well as multimodal support including image understanding and generation. The upgraded models support new capabilities use cases, including realistic image creation, advanced photo editing, and visual question answering. Certain devices will receive a higher-power version of the model with additional capabilities including speech generation, improved dictation accuracy, and stronger natural language understanding, though Apple did not specify which devices qualify. A new system orchestrator sits at the center of the revised architecture, coordinating ‌Apple Intelligence‌ features securely across Apple's platforms. Apple says the orchestrator allows the system to tailor its responses based on the active app and the user's current task, enabling what the company described as truly system-wide intelligence. Apple used the announcement to frame its approach as a contrast to competitors it characterized as "racing forward" without regard for users. The company reiterated that ‌Apple Intelligence‌ relies on on-device processing and Private Cloud Compute, with a promise that user data is only used to execute the immediate request and is not accessible to Apple or third parties. Apple added that outside experts can verify those privacy guarantees "at any time."Tags: Apple Intelligence, GoogleThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple to Bring Custom EQ to AirPods
Apple today announced that AirPods will gain a custom EQ (equalizer) feature, allowing users to further personalize how their AirPods sound. The new capability is part of Apple's next-generation software platform updates, which the company unveiled today. Custom EQ lets listeners adjust audio output to match their personal preferences, going beyond the fixed audio profiles AirPods have offered previously. Custom EQ lets you adjust the balance of different sound frequencies, including bass, mids, and treble, to tailor audio output to your personal taste. Boosting the bass makes music feel punchier, for example, while lifting the treble adds more clarity to vocals and instruments. AirPods already support features such as Adaptive Audio, Personalized Spatial Audio, and Conversation Awareness. Custom EQ adds a further layer of tuning on top of those.Related Roundups: AirPods 4, AirPods Max 2, AirPods Pro 3Tag: WWDC 2026Buyer's Guide: AirPods (Caution), AirPods Max (Buy Now), AirPods Pro (Neutral)Related Forum: AirPodsThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Apple Announces Liquid Glass Improvements and Transparency Slider
Apple today announced a series of improvements to Liquid Glass, the translucent design language the company introduced last year. Apple said it has heard user feedback, which it "deeply appreciates," and is now making adjustments to the underlying foundations of how Liquid Glass is constructed. Chief among those changes is a new slider that lets users control transparency, ranging from fully opaque to completely clear. Sidebar behavior is also being updated. Sidebars will now expand to the full edge of the window, with refraction effects continuing beneath them rather than cutting off at the sidebar boundary. Sidebar icons will also retain their color, a change that addresses a common complaint about the original Liquid Glass implementation. Apple also announced updates to its app icon design language. Having redesigned all of its first-party icons last year to create a more consistent look across apps and platforms, the company said it is now taking that work further by incorporating additional layers of Liquid Glass directly into the icon artwork itself.Tags: Liquid Glass, WWDC 2026This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Cloudflare Tunnel Connectivity Issues via Anchorage (ANC) from 2026-05-14 to 2026-05-28
May 28, 12:18 UTC Resolved - This incident has been resolved. May 28, 12:13 UTC Monitoring - Between May 14th and May 28th, 2026, an issue with network routing impacted a subset of Cloudflare Tunnel connections routing through our Anchorage, AK (ANC) point of presence. This issue has been fully mitigated by rerouting traffic to the nearest healthy data centers, and all services are now operating normally.During this time frame, customers with traffic routing through Anchorage may have experienced intermittent or persistent connection failures, manifesting primarily as HTTP 522 errors or connection timeouts.This problem specifically impacted Cloudflare Tunnels routing back to origin servers via this path. Because internal path-optimization systems incorrectly perceived the degraded path as functional, automated failover did not immediately trigger for this specific traffic profile. Traffic routing through all other Cloudflare regions remained entirely unaffected.We sincerely apologize for the duration of this disruption and the impact on our customers. We are actively prioritizing updates to our automated detection and mitigation systems to ensure similar infrastructure and transit anomalies are automatically identified and mitigated moving forward.
