  1. Supports native Apple apps
  2. Suggested Actions Provides Automation in Five Key Areas
  3. Limited to iMessage and Native Apps Only

Apple, which released the iOS 27.2 update last month, added a hidden feature to iPhones. The technology giant integrated the "Suggested Actions" feature, powered by Apple Intelligence, into its latest Messages app.

The system analyzes incoming messages locally on the device and places one-tap action buttons directly below the message bubble.

Supports native Apple apps

The new system eliminates the need for users to copy a tracking code and paste it into a browser or manually enter a meeting time into the calendar. Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered shortcuts trigger relevant native Apple apps directly from within the message feed.

Suggested Actions Provides Automation in Five Key Areas

Enabled by default, the feature covers five basic usage scenarios commonly encountered in daily messaging:

  • Calendar: When a time or dinner plan is mentioned in a message, the "Add to Calendar" button appears, offering pre-filled event details.
  • Reminders: When a task or to-do item is included in a message, users can create the entry via the "Add to Reminders" button without leaving the Messages app.
  • Notes: When long text blocks are detected, the system activates the "Add to Notes" shortcut.
  • Maps: A direct "Show in Maps" link is generated for shared addresses.
  • Flights and Cargo Packages: Flight numbers and tracking codes within messages are scanned and displayed as live status cards inside the chat screen.
