When will Siri AI be available in Europe?

When Siri AI will be available in Europe?

4 replies

It is already avaialble in Europe on Macs and Apple Vision Pro devices.

Due to the European Union's governing body's unreasonable requirements for how it should work, Apple will not be releasing it there at this time on iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches. Apple is actively working with the EU to make it possible, but the EU us not agreeing to any of Apple's provided options.


See the following support document for more details.

No one here in this user-to-user forum would know the answer to that question.


Apple needs to be in compliance with all the laws, rules, and codes of each country (or the EU) in which it operates.

That pretty much says it all. Does not seem like protecting users Privacy and Security are important to the EU regulators, but it is to Apple.


Same thing for Advanced Data Protection that encrypts all data in iCloud preventing anyone, including Governments, from being able to see that data. The EU does not allow their citizens to use that feature, you could guess why that is the case.


And another is iPhone Mirroring when the phone is connected to a Mac, just because Apple does not allow other platforms to mirror the iPhone where they cannot provide the same security protections, it has not been an option in the EU even though it is available in every other part of the world.
