5 Mind-Blowing Apple Intelligence Features on iPhone 17

Visual Intelligence in Camera

• 💡 Visual Intelligence can be enabled in settings under Camera controls by ensuring 'press and hold for launch visual regions' is active.
• 📸 Once enabled, holding the camera shutter button allows you to take a photo of an object and then search it on the internet or ask GPT for information about it.

AI Tools in Notes

• 📝 Within the Notes app, you can select text and tap the AI button to access features like rewrite, proofread, summarize, generate key points, or create a list/table.
• ✨ The rewrite function can completely rephrase existing text, which can then be confirmed with a tick icon.

Photos Cleanup Feature

• 🖼️ The Photos cleanup feature allows users to remove unwanted objects from images.
• 🖌️ By brushing over the object you wish to remove and waiting, the AI attempts to make it disappear, though its effectiveness can vary.

Enhanced Siri Capabilities

• 🗣️ Siri can now understand and process multiple commands at once, making it more efficient.
• ⏰ For example, you can tell Siri to set an alarm for a specific time, and it can correctly interpret and execute the instruction even with slight hesitations or corrections.

"Ask Reason for Calling" AI Screening

• 📞 In the Phone app settings, under 'screen unknown callers', the 'Ask Reason for Calling' feature can be enabled.
• 🧐 This AI feature will automatically ask callers for the reason they are calling, providing an additional layer of call screening.
