Apple Notes could get a powerful new advantage in iOS 26.4, per report

Apple’s big Siri upgrades are expected to ship as part of iOS 26.4, and a new report indicates they might come with a very convenient new feature for Apple Notes users.

Siri’s iOS 26.4 upgrades might come with Apple Notes integration

It’s been an exciting week for updates on Siri’s long-anticipated AI overhaul.

On Monday, Apple and Google jointly confirmed that they have entered a new partnership wherein Gemini technology will power new Apple Intelligence features, including Siri’s big upgrades.

Yesterday The Information published a report offering a few more details on what to expect.

And as a heavy Apple Notes user, one line in that report got me especially excited.

Stephanie Palazzolo, Amir Efrati and Aaron Tilley write at The Information:

Siri will also be able to handle other types of tasks, such as creating a Notes document with a cooking recipe or information about the top causes of drug addiction, for instance.

This seems tied to the previously announced App Intents-related feature, wherein Siri is gaining new powers to perform actions inside apps and even across different apps.

Why I’m excited about saving Siri responses to Notes

I’m a big fan of Apple Notes, and often use it to save information I got from the web or via AI assistants like ChatGPT and Gemini.

But right now, I have to do that manually. If I’m using an AI assistant via text, I’ll copy the response and paste it into Notes. It’s a little clunky, but not terrible. When interacting with AI by voice, though, there’s no quick, easy way to save responses.

In iOS 26.4 though, it sounds like Siri will be able to save information to a new Apple Note with ease. I suspect it will also support adding content to existing notes.

Siri has previously offered some limited Notes integrations. But without the power of LLM intelligence, those features have had minimal usefulness.

But with iOS 26.4’s upgrades powered by Gemini, I expect to use Siri just as much or more than I’m using other AI chatbots today. And being able to easily ask Siri to save its information to Apple Notes will be a frequently used feature for me.
