On Apple’s official website, the Cupertino-based tech giant says that Apple Intelligence is “coming this fall.”
However, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, via his Power On newsletter, claims that he has more specific insight into the release date windows of some of the most highly anticipated Apple Intelligence features, including Genmoji, Image Playground, and more.

The stable public release of Apple Intelligence is expected to debut with the official launch of iOS 18.1. According to Gurman, iOS 18.1 will roll out some time “in the middle of October.”
However, iOS 18.1 will not include Genmoji, Image Playground, and some other Apple Intelligence features. You may be wondering, “Well, when can I expect to officially get Genmoji and the other aforementioned perks?”
According to Gurman, you’ll have to wait until iOS 18.2 to play around with Genmoji, Image Playground, and the new ChatGPT integration.
“The company is looking to get that [iOS 18.2] release down to zero-bug status in early November,” Gurman said. This means that the release date window for Genmoji, Image Playground, and ChatGPT integration will be some time in December.
Users likely won’t get the full suite of Apple Intelligence’s AI-powered features until next year. According to Gurman, Siri’s new ability to provide better contextual and personalized responses won’t be available until March with iOS 18.4.
The most highly anticipated software release of 2024 is arguably iOS 18.2. Genmoji will allow you to create emoji by simply describing them with a text prompt. Image Playground is Apple’s answer to Google’s “Pixel Studio,” which lets you produce AI-generated images.
If you have an iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, as well as any of the four iPhone 16 models, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy Apple Intelligence with its staggered rollout this year and next year.
