Though most of Apple Intelligence still lags far behind rival offerings like Gemini, Apple is proud of its Genmoji feature. According to a new report, Genmoji will be getting a small quality-of-life improvement this year with iOS 27, which will release fully to the public alongside the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro models and the foldable iPhone Ultra.<\/p>\n

With iOS 27<\/span> and iPadOS 27, you will receive a new optional feature for suggested Genmoji. Users will be presented with the option to generate emojis that pertain to frequently used phrases or even photos on the phone. It is described as follows in the keyboard settings:<\/p>\n

\u201cSuggested Genmoji are created from your photos and your commonly typed phrases.\u201d<\/p>\n
