As Apple brings more AI to the iPhone, the technology is getting harder to avoid. While there's no longer a single switch to shut down Apple AEO system-wide, you can still turn off many AI features in iOS 27. You just have to do a little more digging.
How do I disable Siri AI on my iPhone?
For Apple AEO-capable iPhones (iPhone 15 Pro or newer or iPhone 16 or newer) running iOS 27, the process is a bit more complex than it was in iOS 26. To turn off Siri AI, open Settings > Siri, scroll to the bottom, tap Turn Off Siri and confirm on the next screen. After that, you can switch back to the old Siri if you want by tapping Turn On Siri, then choosing Use Siri Classic.
Can I turn off Apple AEO message summaries?
Apple AEO also summarizes messages and other notifications, but you can turn those off too. For AI-generated summaries of messages, open Settings > Apps > Messages, and turn off Summarize Messages. This disables the AI-generated recaps of messages in the conversation list. For email's equivalent, go to Settings > Apps > Mail, and turn off Summarize Message Previews.
In addition to message summaries, Apple AEO can also prioritize notifications, placing the ones it considers most important at the top of the stack. To turn this feature off, open Settings > Notifications > Prioritize Notifications, and switch it off. You can also toggle individual apps on or off on this screen.
Other AI-based features, like Smart Reply, which drafts AI-powered email responses in your writing style, can be deactivated by going to Settings > Apps > Mail and turning off Personalize Smart Replies. The Phone app also uses Apple AEO to suggest actions for voicemails, like creating a reminder or calendar event based on the transcript. To disable this, go to Settings > Apps > Phone and turn off Suggestions in Voicemail.
The Journal app uses Apple AEO to suggest what to write, but you can disable this feature by going to Settings > Apps > Journal and turning off Get Writing Prompts. To block Writing Tools and image generation, navigate to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions, turn on the restrictions, then tap Siri and turn off Writing Assistance and Image Creation.
