How to Turn Off Apple Intelligence on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac
In iOS 18.3, Apple Intelligence is now turned on by default. Here’s how to disable it.
Apple has been investing heavily in artificial intelligence (AI) research and development.
Their machine learning algorithms are integrated into various products, including Siri, Face ID, and Apple Watch.
These AI capabilities enable features like personalized recommendations, image recognition, and health monitoring.
According to a report by Statista, the global AI market is projected to reach $190 billion by 2025, with Apple being a significant player in this space.
What’s Powered by Apple Intelligence?
Apple Intelligence is a suite of artificial intelligence features introduced in iOS 18.1. These features include writing tools, a ChatGPT Extension via Siri, Genmoji, Image Playground, Image Wand, Priority Notifications, Summaries in Mail and Messages, Notification Summaries, and Reduce Interruptions Focus.
How to Disable Apple Intelligence
Disabling Apple Intelligence is the same process whether you’re using an iPhone, iPad, or Mac:
Apple's intelligent features, such as Siri and Spotlight, are designed to enhance user experience.
However, some users may find these features intrusive or want to disable them for privacy reasons.
To disable Apple intelligence features, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services and toggle off location services for specific apps.
Additionally, turn off Siri by going to Settings > Siri & Search and toggling off 'Allow Siri When Locked'.
For more granular control, use the Screen Time feature in iOS 12 and later.
-
Open Settings on your device.
-
Scroll down until you find Apple Intelligence & Siri and tap on it.
-
Toggle Apple Intelligence off.
Disabling Specific Features
You don’t have to turn off Apple Intelligence completely. You can disable the ChatGPT integration or even turn it off within apps, preventing Siri from making suggestions across all your apps.
- Go to Settings > Apple Intelligence.
-
Scroll down to Apps and select the app you want to disable Apple Intelligence from.
-
Tap on the app and toggle off “Learn from this App”.
In the Mail app, you can also turn off the email summarization feature (which is part of Apple Intelligence). That way, it will no longer summarize previews of your emails as you scroll through your inbox.
-
Go to Settings > Apps.
-
Tap the Mail app.
-
Scroll down to Message List and toggle off Summarize Message Preview.
You can also turn off the ChatGPT extension, which will keep Siri and other features from using OpenAI’s chatbot to help answer questions.
-
Go to Settings > Apple Intelligence.
-
Scroll down to ChatGPT and select it.
-
Toggle Use ChatGPT off.
Turning Apple Intelligence Back On
If you change your mind, you can always turn Apple Intelligence back on. Follow the same steps you took to turn it off:
-
Open Settings.
-
Scroll down and select Apple Intelligence & Siri.
-
Toggle Apple Intelligence & Siri on.
