July 13 (Portaltic/EP) –
Manzana has introduced support for queries in two languages to its assistant, Siri, from the same device in the latest beta of the operating system for iPhone, which it published this Wednesday.
Currently, Siri allows queries in a single language, whether on the brand’s ‘smartphone’, on the Mac or on Apple Watch. To choose the language in which it should receive requests and responses, the Settings menu must be accessed.
The company announced at the beginning of last June that the next update of its operating system, which will arrive next fall, would have multiple customization options, both for contacts and with real-time message transcription functions, thanks to Live Voicemail.
Apple recently released its first set of public beta versions of iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma. With them, functionalities have been advanced such as the option to configure a bilingual assistant.
Specifically, the Cupertino-based company has added support so that users can make a query in two different languages, with compatibility even with the so-called Indic languages, as it has verified. TechCrunch.
As this same medium recalls, the American manufacturer would not be the first to introduce this compatibility in its assistant, since Google Assistant got multilingual support in 2018 and Amazon he released it a year later.
Another novelty that iOS 17 introduces is the full page screenshot, which Android has been offering for years with the option ‘Screenshot with scrolling’, with which you can, for example, save a complete chat conversation or a web page. Until now, iPhone users could only save PDF files from a screenshot.
Another of the features that have been released these days for iOS 17 is Screen Distance, a function that warns the user that they are using the device too close to the screen. To do this, use the TrueDepth camera.
