Apple Intelligence Not Device Region Locked to US in Latest Betas

iOS 18.1 and later betas no longer require users to set their device region to the US to access Apple Intelligence. Only the US English language requirement remains. Users need to set their device language to English and Siri language to English (United States) to join the waitlist. Apple Intelligence includes features such as text composition, automation, image generation, and text summarization. It's unavailable in China and requires a US App Store ID in the EU. Compatible devices include iPhone 15 Pro models, iPads with M1 or later processors, and Macs with M1 or later processors. Apple Intelligence requires significant on-device computing power, so compatibility should be checked before enabling it. Users outside the US can join the waitlist and typically get accepted within minutes.
