iphone maker Apple has started testing a new Siri feature that allows users to give multiple instructions in a single command. The update was reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and signals a major shift in how Siri processes user requests.
The new Siri capabilities are likely to arrive with iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and macOS 27. Apple is expected to unveil these updates during its WWDC 2026 event scheduled to take place in June.
The upgraded Siri will let users combine tasks in one request such as checking the weather, creating a calendar event and sending a message. This reduces the need for separate commands and simplifies everyday interactions.
Currently Siri requires users to issue separate commands for each task, making the process slower and less efficient. The upcoming feature aims to fix this by allowing multiple actions to be completed together in a single request.
Apple aims is to make Siri faster and more efficient with this update by reducing the number of steps needed to complete tasks. The streamlined experience is designed to encourage users to depend on Siri for managing routine digital activities.
The upcoming upgrade will use personal context and deeper app connections to improve functionality. Siri could fetch a photo, make edits and send it to a contact within a single command, making everyday tasks faster and more seamless.
Simultaneously, Apple is also planning a standalone Siri app that could function like modern chatbots. Users may be able to type queries, access past conversations and upload files such as images and documents for assistance.
The updated Siri is expected to summarise information from the web through Apple’s World Knowledge Answers programme. It may also use personal data like messages, notes and emails to provide more relevant responses.
