iOS 27 is packed with big Apple Intelligence upgrades, including the new Siri AI, powerful editing tools in Apple Photos, improved image generation features, and more.
While these features will be free to all users, some of them will have daily usage limits—and those limits will be higher depending on your Apple One tier.

Lyrics Pronunciation, which enables users to sing along when lyrics are in another language, will also expand to include five new pairings, including Arabic to Romanized Arabic, English to Hangul, English to Katakana, Japanese to Hangul, and Mandarin Chinese (simplified) to Katakana.
