Apple’s iOS 27 public beta is rolling out with a range of Siri and Apple Intelligence updates, but one of the most visible changes is a brand-new Siri app for iPhone. The addition gives Apple’s voice assistant a dedicated place on the Home Screen instead of existing only as a built-in system feature.
That shift could make Siri feel more like a standalone experience within iOS 27. For users trying the public beta, the new app is likely to stand out immediately because it changes how Siri is accessed and presented on the iPhone.
The update appears to be part of Apple’s broader push to expand Siri’s role as it adds more Apple Intelligence features across the operating system. While iOS 27 includes several AI-focused changes, the new Siri app is one of the clearest signs that Apple is reworking how its assistant fits into daily iPhone use.
With the public beta now available, the dedicated Siri app is shaping up to be one of the headline additions in iOS 27. It gives the software update a more noticeable interface change at a time when Apple is also emphasizing smarter assistant features.
