Welcome to #309: A note from the editor

Apple Intelligence is inching closer to reality, but unfortunately the majority of people won’t get to try it anytime soon. Apple’s take on AI will be limited to the latest devices, only available in US English, with features mostly available from iOS 18.1 later this year. But in this issue’s apps roundup, we cover all sorts of clever things you can do with AI right now, on any device and in any part of the world.

We’ve also got the latest in our Toolkit series, this time covering some apps, gadgets, and life hacks to help you minimize distractions on your iPhone without ditching it completely. For the routine procrastinator or the social media addict, these tips could make a huge difference. Oh, and we’ve got the lowdown on my favorite iOS 18 feature yet in the How-To section.

Our next issue releases right around the launch of iPhone 16 and iOS 18, so you can bet we’ll have a ton of stuff for you to dive into. See you then!
