The initial iOS 26.1 beta version enhances Apple's top recent feature.
No one expected that Apple will fulfill its promises so soon.
Apple's AI technology is behind competitors, and expanding the languages supported by Apple Intelligence is vital. The latest beta version mainly focuses on language expansion, introducing:
Chinese (traditional)
Danish
Dutch
Norwegian
Portuguese (Portugal)
Swedish
Turkish
Vietnamese
Apple Intelligence initially supported only US English but later included several English accents. The previous language update occurred in March.
Galaxy AI, featured on the Galaxy S25 and other Samsung devices, supports up to 39 languages, varying by feature. About nine languages have full access, while Call Assist supports 20.
Google's Gemini, preinstalled on the Pixel 10 series and available on Android and iOS, supports over 45 languages. However, some functions, such as "Hey Google," have limited language support.
While adding languages enhances Apple Intelligence, further development is necessary. Prioritizing new features might be more impactful, as users still rely on platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini for AI tasks, and additional languages alone may not drive adoption of Apple Intelligence.
