## Key points

- Developers can combine tasks into app skills.
- The features are rolling out in an iOS 27.3 Developer Preview.

## Summary

Apple is opening Siri AI’s ability to understand requests and carry out actions to third-party apps, as part of the iOS 27.3 Developer Preview rolling out on Tuesday. The change could make Siri more useful across apps by letting it draw on personal context and what is on screen, while allowing users to describe what they want without always naming the app.

Developers can also create “app skills” that combine several tasks into one action. Apple’s example is changing a ride pickup address through a ride-share app after tracking its Live Activity. The expanded capabilities are also coming to Apple apps including Calendar, Files, Mail, Maps, Messages and Photos; users can ask Siri what it can do in each app.
