Apple introduced a redesigned version of Siri at WWDC 2026, giving the voice assistant major AI upgrades aimed at making interactions more natural and context-aware through Apple Intelligence.
According to Apple, Siri has been rebuilt using advanced AI capabilities to better understand follow-up questions, personal context and on-screen content. While users can still activate the assistant using the familiar “Hey Siri” command, the company said the new version is designed to support more fluid, back-and-forth conversations.
A more conversational Siri
Apple says Siri now offers improved speech understanding, more expressive voices and greater accuracy in dictation. Users will also be able to customise the pace and style of Siri’s voice. In addition, voice dictation has been updated to automatically handle punctuation, capitalisation and formatting more accurately while users speak.
Siri is also getting a refreshed interface, with new ways to access it across Apple devices. On supported iPhones, users can invoke Siri through the side button or by swiping down from the Dynamic Island for more detailed interactions.
