Apple has released the developer beta of iOS 18.1, introducing AI call recording and transcription capabilities that allow users to tap the 'Record' button during calls to start recording and automatically generate a transcript after the call, which is stored in Notes. This feature is particularly useful for users who need to document important phone conversations, such as journalists or patients communicating with doctors. Additionally, this version includes natural language search in Photos, an email summary feature in Mail, and design updates for Siri. However, the AI-enhanced Siri features are expected to launch in 2025.
