Do you plan to use an AI assistant like Siri to order or book things?

Apple has released a Developer Preview that allows all developers to integrate their apps with Siri AI, and thousands of developers have already built integrations. Siri AI is currently available in English, French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish, with support for Traditional Chinese, Norwegian, Turkish, and Vietnamese planned.

Why it matters

The preview lets apps expose their content and actions directly to Siri AI, which could change how users complete tasks across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro. For U.S. users and developers, it signals how Apple plans to make its AI assistant a central access point for third-party apps.

The figure comes from Apple's developer announcement, which reports that thousands of developers have already built Siri integrations. The source does not say how many of those integrations will reach public release or when the planned languages will arrive.

The players

Apple

Apple is the Cupertino, California technology company that makes the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro and develops the Siri voice assistant.

The details

Apps bring their content and actions into Siri AI through App Intents, and developers can teach Siri AI to combine several actions into a single experience using skills. Siri AI can surface any entity in the Spotlight semantic index, not only entities that fit an existing schema.

Timeline

  1. November 3, 2026: Apple announced the Developer Preview for Siri AI integration.

The Tech Race

The Developer Preview extends Apple's App Intents framework, the mechanism that lets apps expose actions to the system, into its new Siri AI assistant. The move positions Siri AI to compete with rival assistants by opening it to the same third-party app ecosystem those companies rely on.

Users of supported apps may be able to reach app content and actions directly through Siri AI once developers adopt the preview. Siri AI currently works in six languages, so users who speak other languages will need to wait for the planned additions.

The takeaway

Developers who want their apps to work with Siri AI can start building App Intents integrations now using the Developer Preview in the current betas. Users should expect Siri AI capabilities to grow as more apps and languages are added.
