What new features does iOS 18.3 contain
Apple Intelligence for Messages
The Apple Intelligence feature for summarizing news apps will be temporarily unavailable in Messages. This is due to the incorrect content of some news articles.
In iOS 18.3, notifications included in the summary will be italicized, which will allow them to be visually distinguished from regular notifications.
In addition, Apple promises to improve the feature in future iOS.
