Siri AI launch has been already delayed multiple times but 2026 could finally be the year when Apple has its voice assistant overhauled.
Siri AI is widely tipped to release with iOS 26.4 update next year
We’re coming to the end of 2025 which means Apple and other tech companies are already gearing up for a big start to 2026 and nothing gets more eyeballs than the talk around Siri AI launch. Yes, the Apple voice assistant that has been lagging far behind its competition and got further pushed by all the AI upgrades.
Siri AI was part of the big iPhone 16 event teaser with its Glow Time tag but that never came out. Now, Apple seems to be getting closer to the big Siri 2.0 release and a new tip gives us a more clearer timeline.
Siri AI Launching In 2026: What We Know
The details about possible Siri AI launch have been revealed in an iOS 26 internal build which suggests Apple could announce the assistant around the Spring time next year. This falls in line with the earlier reports about Siri AI launch expected with the iOS 26 update that rolls out around March 2026.
Having Siri AI talk more contextually is important because of where both Gemini and ChatGPT stand currently. In addition to this, Apple needs the new-look AI Siri to work better so that its smart home segment can expand and the assistant is pivotal for its success.
Google could have a big role to play in the Siri AI launch which could be derived from Gemini with Apple AI also expected to become a force. We are eager to see how the new look Siri performs and if the so-called AI aspirations could give it a more conversational tone rather than sounding like a robot.
Apple needs a strong AI reboot if it needs to expand its smart home ecosystem, which is reportedly going to be its focus in 2026 along with the foldable iPhone that multiple reports have seemingly assured of its debut in the next 10 to 12 months. We are also hoping the new Siri version gets the right support and architecture which will give ChatGPT and Gemini among others a tough fight.
