What happened

Apple says developers can integrate Siri AI features across third-party apps in the iOS 27.3 Developer Preview. Siri can use personal context, process natural language prompts, and understand what is on screen; a new “app skills” feature lets developers combine several tasks into one action. Users can make requests without naming an app in certain contexts, including when it is in the foreground or during a Live Activity.
