Apple delays two iOS 27 features, including auto password fixes, past launch
Apple confirmed that iOS 27, launching September 14, will ship without two previously demoed features: Messages suggestions that add items to Reminders, Notes, or Calendar, and an automatic password-fixing tool in the Passwords app. Apple updated its website this week to note both will arrive in a 'future software update' rather than at launch, with the change also affecting iPadOS 27 and macOS 27.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Both features relied on Apple Intelligence taking agentic action on a user's behalf, an area Apple has repeatedly struggled to ship on schedule, echoing last year's delayed Siri overhaul. The slip suggests Apple's AI-driven automation features still need more polish before reaching the reliability bar required for consumer release.
- iOS 27 launches September 14 without Messages suggestions or automatic password fixes
- Both cut features depend on Apple Intelligence performing actions automatically
- No timeline given for when the features will return in a future update
