If you were eager to get your hands on Apple Intelligence during its beta and are a developer outside of the United States, you may have to wait a while.
Per code found inside the iOS 18 developer beta, there will be a waitlist for access, and international developers may have to put up with delayed responses.
According to MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris who spotted the code strings, Apple Intelligence has been codenamed “Graymatter” and there are references to a waitlist, with specific strings that say “Join the Graymatter Waiting List” and “Joined Waitlist.” There is also wording that refers to it as a “limited preview.”
“While Graymatter is in limited preview, you may experience unusually slow responses when not in a supported region.”
It’s unknown as to when the Artificial Intelligence beta will arrive for any given region,
Apple Intelligence is free for users and will be available in beta as part of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia this fall in U.S. English.
No Apple Intelligence features are present in developer beta 1, although they’re expected to start rolling out in future betas.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
