Apple (AAPL) users in the European Union will not have access to Siri AI on iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 when the software launches later this year because of requirements under the Digital Markets Act, the company said Tuesday.
Apple said it remains unable to reach an agreement with EU regulators on a framework that would allow Siri AI to launch on iPhone and iPad, while maintaining its privacy and security standards.
EU users will still be able to access Siri AI on macOS 27 and visionOS 27, but the features will not be available on iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch, it said.
The company said it will continue discussions with EU regulators but it currently has no timeline for making Siri AI available on iOS and iPadOS in the European Union.
Shares of Apple were nearly 3% lower in Tuesday trading.
