On Monday, June 24, to be precise, the upcoming iOS 18 developer beta will be available for download. Unusual for Apple, they have also disclosed this release plan. In a statement, they also mentioned Apple Intelligence and the fact that it won't be available in the EU this year.

Apple rarely provides this level of information, but the timing—two weeks following the initial beta release—is extremely quick and ahead of several other beta releases at this point. Look what's about to happen.

Apple made the announcement to The Verge on Friday, June 21, citing the new Digital Markets Act as the reason for the EU delay in implementing Apple Intelligence.

Apple reaffirmed that Apple Intelligence will be made accessible.
