Apple is testing a new Siri feature that lets users handle multiple requests in one go, as it works to bring the assistant closer to newer AI tools.
According to a report by Bloomberg, the upgrade will arrive with iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and macOS 27, expected later this year.
People familiar with the plans said the feature will allow Siri to process multi-step commands in a single query, instead of handling them one at a time.
Right now, Siri responds to one instruction per request. That has left it trailing competitors that can manage more complex tasks in a single interaction. With this change, a user could ask Siri to get directions and share them with a contact in one sentence.
Apple is also working on a comprehensive redesign of Siri. The company is said to be building a more advanced version of the assistant using technology linked to Alphabet Inc.’s Gemini model. Apple has not responded to requests for comment.

The upgrade is expected to feature at the Worldwide Developers Conference on June 8, 2026, where Apple usually previews its next software updates.
Beyond handling multiple requests, Apple is testing a new Siri app with both voice and text input. Users may also be able to revisit past conversations, a feature already common with tools like ChatGPT.
There are also plans for an “Extensions” system that would allow third-party services to plug directly into Siri.
At the same time, Apple is looking at opening Siri to other AI providers. Reports say users could choose between different assistants, including those from Anthropic, alongside existing integrations.
This changes the tech giant’s approach. Apple’s earlier Apple Intelligence rollout in 2024 did not gain strong traction, and the company has been under pressure to close the gap with competing systems.
Internally, the project to overhaul Siri into a full chatbot is said to carry the codename “Campos”. The plan is to embed it across the iPhone, iPad and Mac, replacing the current interface with something more interactive and capable.
