Apple plans to turn some of the artificial-intelligence features of iOS 18 into paid services, following the subscription model of iCloud+. In his latest Power On newsletter<\/a>, Mark Gurman states that, although Apple Intelligence will initially be free, the long-term plan is to launch something similar to “Apple Intelligence+”, where additional features will be offered under a monthly fee.<\/p>\n\n\n

A subscription for certain specific features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This move would allow Apple to create a new source of income for its services category<\/strong> and strengthen those services. In parallel, Gurman also expects Apple to receive a portion of the revenue every time a user subscribes to a payment plan offered by its AI partners, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Google Gemini, which could arrive on iOS 18 soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It remains to be seen, if this plan actually takes shape<\/strong>, the price of the services. Features like Hide My Email from iCloud+ or the iCloud Private Relay privacy service are included with the 0.99 euros per year payment for the purchase of additional Apple cloud storage space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, it might be worth considering Apple One plans. Plans that offer all Apple services in exchange for a subscription are the best candidates to accommodate Apple Intelligence if it turns out that certain features require a monthly payment.<\/p>\n\n\n

Finally, it should be noted that Gurman himself said only some AI functions would require a subscription. It remains to be seen which ones, but in the meantime, let’s focus on all the news of iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence coming to Europe, step by step.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
