Apple released iOS 27.3 on Tuesday to enable Siri AI to interact with third-party apps by accessing user context and on-screen awareness. Developers can now build 'app skills' to combine multiple tasks into single actions without naming the app. This update is part of a Developer Preview and allows Siri to process natural language prompts across installed applications.
