I wanted to share a feature request regarding the new Siri AI and Apple Intelligence.
I was genuinely excited about the new Siri experience announced for iPadOS 27. One of the main reasons I decided to update my iPad was the hope of being able to experience the new Siri and its new capabilities.
However, I live in Iran, where the new Siri AI is currently not practically available. This is disappointing, especially because I have compatible hardware and use a supported language, but I still cannot fully experience the new Siri.
I understand that the availability of Apple Intelligence and Siri can depend on regional, legal, regulatory, and technical considerations, and I respect that Apple may have reasons for limiting certain services in particular regions.
With that in mind, I would simply like to ask Apple to consider Iran for future Siri AI availability if and when it becomes legally and technically possible.
The new Siri is particularly interesting to me because of its conversational capabilities, personal context, onscreen awareness, broader knowledge, and ability to work across apps. These features make it feel like a significant evolution of Siri, and I would really like to be able to experience them officially on my device.
I would also greatly prefer an officially supported experience rather than having users depend on unofficial network workarounds to access features that their compatible hardware is otherwise capable of supporting.
I realize that expanding availability to another region may involve considerations that are not visible to users, and I don’t expect an immediate change. I simply hope that Iran can eventually be considered as Apple expands the availability of these technologies.
Many ordinary users have no control over the political, legal, or regulatory circumstances affecting their region. They simply want to use the products and services their compatible devices are capable of providing. Whenever legally and technically possible, I hope circumstances affecting a region do not permanently prevent ordinary users from accessing useful features.
Thank you for considering this request. It would mean a lot to Iranian Apple users to eventually have official access to the new Siri experience.
