iOS 27 to Integrate AI-Powered System-Wide Grammar Correction

According to a Bloomberg report by Mark Gurman, Apple is set to introduce major AI enhancements to the native iPhone keyboard with iOS 27, to be unveiled at WWDC 2026. The update centers on a more "context-aware" correction system, evolving basic spell check into advanced writing assistance.
Specific details and a codename for the feature have been disclosed, signaling deeper integration of Apple Intelligence:
From Correcting Spelling to Suggesting Words: A Keyboard Paradigm Shift
Moving beyond traditional autocorrect, the iOS 27 keyboard will focus on understanding user intent:
Word Suggestions: The system will suggest more appropriate and eloquent synonyms based on sentence context, similar to tools like Grammarly.
Contextual Correction: Enhanced algorithms will identify correctly spelled words that are logically inconsistent (such as misused homophones) and propose corrections.
On-device Processing: To ensure privacy, over 90% of input analysis will be handled on-device by the NPU, keeping conversations confidential.
Gurman stated this keyboard upgrade is part of a "Snow Leopard"-style update for iOS 27, prioritizing system stability and practical AI improvements over major interface changes.
Technical Limitations:
The feature's reliance on local AI processing means it will likely be limited to iPhone models with the A17 Pro chip or later (devices compatible with Apple Intelligence).
Beyond the keyboard, iOS 27 is expected to introduce other AI advancements: Siri 2.0, capable of handling multiple complex requests in a single command, and Third-party Assistant Integration, potentially allowing users to access ChatGPT or Google Gemini directly through Siri.
