Summary
iOS 27 is now available for iPhones back to the iPhone 11, arriving alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max with installation taking about 20 minutes.
Apple centered the update on deeper Siri integration: cross-app actions, camera-based Visual Intelligence and AI-built shortcuts, though Apple Intelligence features require an iPhone 15 Pro or newer.
New parental controls add Ask to Browse, letting children request access to websites, contacts or messages and allowing parents to enforce screen-time cutoffs.
The release also adds a Liquid Glass interface option, multi-page Control Center customization and easier Siri history controls, including auto-deletion after 30 days or one year.
