Apple’s iOS 27.3 beta adds three features for daily use: Siri AI app actions, a redesigned Apple Health app, and Siri Recap for select Apple Watch models.
The update arrives next month. During the beta, three features stand out for people who use an iPhone and Apple Watch throughout the day.
Siri AI gains app actions
iOS 27 brings major Siri AI upgrades, including world knowledge, personal context, and more conversational responses. One announced improvement, an expanded set of actions for Apple apps, did not ship in iOS 27.0. iOS 27.3 rolls out the first set of those actions.
Siri AI supports actions across 14 Apple apps: Calendar, Files, Journal, Mail, Maps, Messages, Music, Notes, Photos, Preview, Reminders, Safari, Shortcuts, and Weather. The additions expand voice control across those apps and give users more ways to complete tasks without opening each app.
Early beta users report experimenting with the new commands and building them into daily routines.
Apple Health gets a redesign
Apple Health gets a major overhaul in iOS 27.3, with a fresh design and Apple Intelligence features for personalized health insights.
Apple said the updated experience includes a new Insights tab that surfaces timely, holistic summaries across heart, sleep, readiness, fitness, vitals, and cycle tracking data throughout the day. A dedicated For You section delivers recommendations tied to daily habits. Apple gave one example: guidance to adjust a wind-down routine after several nights of interrupted sleep. The app also pairs health data with educational videos and articles featuring Health app clinical experts.
Early testers report enjoying daily guidance on health metrics, browsing the new educational videos and articles, and reviewing factors tied to longevity. The update points Apple Health toward personalized guidance.
Siri Recap arrives for supported watches
Owners of Apple Watch Series 12 or Apple Watch Ultra 4 gain Siri Recap in iOS 27.3. The feature takes notes on conversations throughout the day and uses Apple Intelligence to create high-level summaries for review after conversations.
The feature works like an outsourced short-term memory reserve. The Siri app stores each recap in a new Recaps tab for seven days, then deletes it. Users can save a specific recap before deletion.
Early beta use shows summaries that remind users of key details without feeling invasive. The feature could prove valuable as use grows.
Beta feedback
Apple invites beta users to share which iOS 27.3 features they use. The three features above focus on voice control, health guidance, and conversation memory.
