iOS 18 is one of the biggest updates to the iPhone operating system in its entire history. Without a doubt, Apple Intelligence and other features are expected by all users.. Unfortunately, a good portion of the features won’t be ready until iOS 18.1 (or later according to Apple). That’s why In recent betas of iOS 18 no trace of the functions has been foundFor example, Apple Intelligence will be released in beta stage but before the release of iOS 18 it has not yet been seen in all its splendor. Let’s see what other new features will arrive from iOS 18.1.
Siri: On-screen actions and recognition
Apple Intelligence will have great support and that will be through Siri, which features a renewed interface. Curiously, Apple kept the best and Siri’s capabilities in terms of Actions and on-screen recognition will not be available until laterSiri’s knowledge of what we see on the iPhone screen will be crucial for making requests in the future.
Context is very important, so it will have a history within a single app. For example, you can ask it to play some content that a friend or contact sent you through Messages or another app.

Apple will launch Genmoji as part of Apple Intelligence, although this may not be available due to what happened with the European Union.
iPhone Mirroring: Drag and Drop
It is likely that iPhone Mirroring has an action not available with iOS 18 and that is to drag and drop files between iPhone and MacIt is still unclear how Apple can release these features half-baked. We can interact with the device just as those in Cupertino taught us, but what makes this feature attractive is the fact that we can easily transfer files.
