Apple is releasing two new iPhone applications this year, including an Apple Business app and a Siri app featuring chatbot-like capabilities. The Apple Business app will debut on April 14, replacing Apple Business Essentials, Manager, and Connect. It allows employees to install work apps, view colleague contacts, and request support through the new Apple Business platform.

While not yet officially confirmed by Apple, reports indicate the company is testing a Siri app with functionality similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. This app would support both text and voice interactions while preserving past Siri conversations. Both apps will extend to iPad and Mac platforms later in 2026.

The Apple Business app requires iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26, while the Siri app is expected to launch as part of iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27. Apple has not yet revealed pricing details or specific release timelines beyond these platform requirements.
