You’ve probably seen Siri’s new shine in advertisements and social media-a rainbow of colors wrapping the edges of the iPhone screen when the virtual assistant is summoned. But that’s your iphone always showing the same familiar siri sphere at the bottom of the screen, even under iOS 18.3?
It looks like an idiotic thing to prioritize, but the new Siri look is not only a cosmetic makeover. As part of Apple Intelligence features such as Notification summaries,, Genmoji and the Cleaning tool In the photos, Siri wins new features. My iPhone showed the same thing at first – check the following possibilities for a way to make your phone shine.
Siri’s new design is a brilliant border that deforms briefly.
Look at this: Apple becomes Siri again with the AI and the shiny edges
Your iPhone may not be able to run Apple Intelligence
The latest system update is for everyone with an iPhone XS or later, but that does not mean that everyone gets Apple Intelligence. In fact, because a large part of the AI calculation is carried out on the device, only a handful of models can execute new technologies:
- iPhone 15 pro
- iPhone 15 pro max
- iPhone 16
- iPhone 16 Plus
- iPhone 16 pro
- iPhone 16 pro max
Apple Intelligence will also work on Mac and iPads with processors of the M series, as well as the last iPad mini (which is powered by the A17 Pro chip).
If you have one of these models, you will see the new shimmering look when you invoke Siri. On the Mac, the Siri research field obtains the same effect instead of the entire screen edges. If you have a different model, you will see the same Orb Siri.
Siri Under iOS 18 looks like what he has done in iOS 17 for many people.
You may have to reactivate Apple Intelligence
After the arrival of the first features of Apple Intelligence in iOS 18.1, iPados 18.1 and MacOS Sequoia 15.1, they were not automatically on. You must have registered and wait a few hours or days to have access.
The latest updates (iOS 18.3, iPados 18.3 and MacOS Sequoia 15.3) now activate Apple Intelligence automatically, even if it is always considered a beta functionality. If you have never signed up for the waiting list, or if it is your first leap to iOS 18 of iOS 17, for example, Apple Intelligence should be on and the new SIRI interface should appear.
However, if at some point you had Apple Intelligence on your device but you extinctThe latest updates do not return the switch to reactivate it. Go to Settings> Apple Intelligence & Siri And make sure that the Apple Intelligence The rocking is activated.
Check your SIRI language settings
Currently, Apple Intelligence is not available worldwide and only uses English language models. In Settings> Apple Intelligence & Sirimake sure Language is defined on one of the following elements:
- English (Australia)
- English (Canada)
- English (Ireland)
- English (New Zealand)
- English (South Africa)
- English (United Kingdom)
- English (United States)
Since iOS 18.3, new SIRI functionalities are only supported in selected languages.
In addition, if you have changed the language parameter by something else – talking to Siri in another language can be more fun than Duolingo – selecting one of the English variants above do not automatically reactivate the new Siri. But there is an easy solution: in Settings> Apple Intelligence & Siriturn Apple Intelligence outside and return. Then restart the iPhone. Which covers the necessary language model.
Support for other languages is coming later this year. A footnote on Apple Apple Intelligence Page clarifies: “Additional features and languages will be available in April, with more languages and platforms to come during the year. Languages in 2025 include Chinese, English (India, Singapore) , French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish and Vietnamese.
