Apple's iOS 27 Siri to Index More Personal Data; Users Can Limit Access

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Apple's upcoming iOS 27 update will enhance Siri's capabilities by allowing it to index more personal data from user apps, a feature powered by the new App Intents framework. This integration aims to provide smarter, more personalized responses by accessing information within apps like Notes and Messages, and potentially others that support the framework. While Apple emphasizes on-device processing and its Private Cloud Compute infrastructure, which does not store data, users concerned about privacy can restrict Siri's access by disabling the 'Show Content in Search' option for individual apps.
