Apple is once again expanding its mobile operating system with the upcoming iOS 18.2 update. iOS 18.2, expected to launch in December, will bring new features, including three key Image Tools: Image Playground, Genmoji, and Image Wand. These features are anticipated to be available with the release of iOS 18.2.Â
iOS 18.2 is expected to be a significant update for iPhone users, especially those with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series. The update will introduce Apple’s Image Playground app, allowing users to quickly create “fun images” in three styles: Animation, Illustration, and Sketch. Another feature, Genmoji, will enable users to make custom emojis from text descriptions. Additionally, the update will include the image wand, a tool similar to Samsung’s Sketch to Image feature. This tool allows users to draw a rough sketch in the Notes app and then convert it into a complete image using Apple Intelligence.iOS 18.2 will update the Mail app to organise incoming emails into four categories: Primary, Transactions, Updates, and Promotions.Â
These changes will be available on all devices running iOS 18. Additionally, Apple Intelligence will expand to Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United Kingdom in December. New features for AirPods Pro 2, including Hearing Aid and Hearing Test modes, may also be introduced in iOS 18.2, along with support for robot vacuums in the Home app.
