Since Apple Intelligence was revealed at Apple’s WWDC 2024 event in June, it’s been very slow to roll out, with many features still not in the hands of iOS 18 users. That will all change when iOS 18.2 gets the green light – and two sources have now indicated exactly when that might happen.

So far, Apple has said iOS 18.2 – which has recently had its third beta release – will be available in December, but it hasn't specified a date. Thankfully, a report from AppleInsider, which appeared based on a discovery by MacRumors, has revealed a more targeted release date – it claims the specific day could be 9 December.
