• iOS 18.2 developer beta 1 introduces the highly anticipated ChatGPT integration as part of Apple Intelligence.
• Users can optionally sign in with their free or paid ChatGPT accounts to maintain their history and utilize premium perks.
• ChatGPT on iOS 18.2 can answer questions when Siri struggles, analyze photos, compose and rewrite text, etc.

When Apple revealed iOS 18 in June, it announced that a future software update would bake OpenAI’s chatbot into the system. Well, the wait is finally over — for beta testers, at least. iOS 18.2 developer beta 1 is now available to those with iPhone 16 and 15 Pro models, and it offers ChatGPT as part of Apple Intelligence.

After updating to iOS 18.2 beta 1 on a compatible iPhone, you should find a new ChatGPT menu in the Apple Intelligence settings. There, you can enable the integration, which offers OpenAI’s smarts across various parts of the operating system. A similar option is available on the first betas of iPadOS 18.2 and macOS Sequoia 15.2, too.
