Apple Intelligence hath hath been bestowed upon users of iOS 18.1 beta, yet not all may lay claim to its wisdom. Apple’s AI marvels do dwell in the realm of beta, requiring those who seek its enlightenment to join a noble waitlist. Shouldst thou desire to partake in these AI wonders, let me guide thee on how to venture into the Apple Intelligence waitlist on thy iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Prerequisites for the Apple Intelligence Waitlist
The gates to Apple Intelligence await only those with a device worthy of its embrace.
Thy device must be blessed with iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, or macOS 15.1 Sequoia. (Here’s the secret incantation to install iOS 18 beta)
Shouldst thou reside beyond the shores of the United States, have thy path lead to Settings > General > Language & Region, and set thine Region & Language to the United States and English (United States) respectably to access the wealth of Apple Intelligence.
Should the Apple Intelligence & Siri option remain hidden even after thy incantations, turn thy gaze upon the Siri language, setting it to English (United States) as well.
Now that the prerequisites have been met, behold the steps to join the Apple Intelligence waiting list.
Join the Apple Intelligence waiting list
Unfurl the veil upon the Settings app, then tap on Apple Intelligence & Siri.
Therein, lay thine finger upon Join Waitlist.
A message shall unveil itself, declaring “Joined Waitlist.”
How Long Does It Take to Join the Apple Intelligence Waitlist
In my toil, it took but 15-30 minutes to join the Apple Intelligence waitlist atop my iPhone and Mac. The sands of time run swiftly within the realm of Apple Intelligence, though in rare instances, an hour may pass ere thy entry. And lo, know that this waitlist is not bound to one’s Apple Account, but rather tied to each device. Thus, if thou hast pledged thy loyalty on thy iPhone, the Mac and iPad shall also hear thine call, even under the same Apple ID.
Upon thine approval for Apple Intelligence, a herald shall deliver the news, granting thee passage to utilize features like Writing Tools, Clean Up, Type to Siri, Summarize Web Pages, and more.
