All of the Apple Intelligence Features Not Included in the iOS 18.1 Beta

Apple introduced the first version of Apple Intelligence in the iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1 developer betas. While the betas include some useful ‌Apple Intelligence‌ features like Writing Tools, some of the ‌Apple Intelligence‌ additions won't be coming until later.

Apple Intelligence General Feature
We've rounded up everything that's not yet been added to the betas, with Apple planning to introduce these features at a later date.

  • Image Playground - Both the standalone app and the functionality built into apps like Notes and Messages are missing from the current beta.
  • Genmoji - Genmoji is based on Image Playground, and it is unavailable.
  • Image Wand - Image Wand, the feature that inserts images into your Notes based on context, is also based on ‌Image Playground‌ so it won't be available until ‌Image Playground‌ is added to the beta.
  • Priority Notifications - Priority notifications show up at the top of the notification stack, so you can get to what's most important first. The feature also summarizes your incoming notifications so you can sort through them more quickly.
  • Mail - Mail categories that sort your incoming messages are not yet available.
  • Photos - While the Memory Maker feature is active in Photos, the Clean Up tool that removes unwanted objects from images with a tap is not available.
  • Siri - Functionality that includes onscreen awareness, personal context, and the ability to take more actions in and across apps is not yet available.
  • ChatGPT - ChatGPT integration with Siri has not yet been implemented.
  • Additional Languages - ‌Apple Intelligence‌ is available in U.S. English only as of now, but support for additional languages will be coming in the future.
  • Additional Platforms - As Apple said in its WWDC coverage of ‌Apple Intelligence‌, the ‌Apple Intelligence‌ feature set will eventually expand to additional platforms.

iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1 are only available to developers right now, and ‌Apple Intelligence‌ is still in the early stages of testing. ‌Apple Intelligence‌ features will be available to everyone later this fall in an update to the initial iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia releases.

Apple Executive Comments on New iPad Mini Lacking 120Hz Display

Thursday October 29, 2026 1:47 pm PDT by
While the new iPad mini has an OLED display, the device does not support ProMotion, meaning the display's refresh rate is limited to 60Hz instead of 120Hz. ProMotion support would have allowed for the iPad mini's refresh rate to automatically adjust from 10Hz to 120Hz depending on the content being displayed, but evidently Apple has kept the feature exclusive to the iPad Pro among iPad...

Tim Cook's Apple, where they over-promise and under-deliver. We think you're going to love it.

Is Tim Cook understaffing OS developer team to save money or something? This is unacceptable.

Starting iOS19, they will introduce features and release them with iOS20.

Apple has become so slow paced with Tim. I know that Apple needs to finetune software, but it is executive”s responsibility to push team members to meet the deadline. None of Apple’s executives seem to be good at this.
One of the biggest myths in tech is that pushing teams harder results in hitting deadlines. No, it results in mistakes like the Crowdstrike bug last week. Just like nine women can’t have a baby in a month, building complex software - correctly - takes time.

Now, should they have started a year earlier? Heck yeah. But given the late start, delaying a month or two is better than Apple Maps 1.0. One of the worst things a company can do is release software because of an arbitrary date vs when it’s ready.
