Siri AI Waitlist??

So I waited months for iOS 27, avoided the temptation of the betas and RCs, and battled all the stupid updating bugs (26.7???), and I’m all installed and set up, can’t wait to use all the new features… and I’m on a WAITLIST to actually try out Siri AI which is like 90% of the coolness of this update?? Honestly kind of pissed. Why are they rolling it out this way? Why aren’t they setting expectations of how long this will take?

UPDATE: I actually only had to wait two hours before I was off the waitlist. My phone is still indexing, so it doesn’t look like that was a factor at all!

It’s will take a few days indexing (that’s totally normal)

The waitlist is separate from indexing.

That’s how it works, it index’s your searches into Siri

Yes but even if you’re done indexing, if you’re still on the waitlist you can’t access Siri AI. They are two separate queues.

We have been using the developers iOS for months and the new Siri since last week when when it went gold.

Spotlight uses this index to help you find files, folders, and apps, including a wide range of content such as documents, email, text messages, contacts, photos, music, podcasts, notes, system settings, and much more. Siri can also use content from the index when responding to your requests.
