Apple released iOS 18.1 on Monday, which improves resources in iOS 18 and introduces the initial Apple Intelligence tools, a new artificial intelligence feature.
Models that work with iOS 18.1 and Apple Intelligence
iOS 18.1 can be installed on iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max models, but Apple Intelligence features are exclusive to certain models.
- iPhone 16
- iPhone 16 Plus
- iPhone 16 Pro
- iPhone 16 Pro Max
- iPhone 15 Pro
- iPhone 15 Pro Max
These tools will also work on iPads with A17 chips Pro or M1 (and newer models) and on Macs with M1 processors or higher.
Limited Availability of Apple Information
Apple Intelligence is currently limited to English language only, making it difficult for users in Brazil to access new features as they need to switch their device language to English (US). Apple plans to expand AI to other languages, including Portuguese, by early 2025.
Apple Intelligence’s latest updates include features for assisted writing, improved Siri capabilities for recording calls and editing photos, and AI-powered email organization with priority subject identification and suggested responses.
Apple has announced that new Apple Intelligence features will be released in December.
Control Center configurations

Apple has updated Control Center in iOS 18, allowing users to customize it. The new iOS 18.1 further enhances this feature by introducing specific buttons for connectivity controls such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Airplane Mode, providing direct access without depending on the general connectivity widget.
A new feature called “Reset Control Center” has been included in the settings, enabling users to revert to the original settings following any customizations.
How can I update to iOS 18.1?
Users with iPhone XR, XS, XS Max, or newer models can update their devices by navigating to “Settings,” choosing “General,” and then selecting “Software Update.” Simply tap on “Update Now” after the check, enter the password when prompted, and the device will restart to complete the update process, which could take a few minutes.
