Apple expands language support across several iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 features
Apple’s updated iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 Feature Availability page confirms support for more than 30 additional languages and language variants across Dictionary, QuickType Keyboard, Siri, and Visual Look Up.
DNA Brief
Signal Summary
The additions cover Dictionary definitions and thesaurus entries; QuickType Keyboard features including autocorrection, predictive typing, multilingual typing, and QuickPath; Siri wake-word support; and Visual Look Up. The page also lists English (Australia) and English (Canada) for Dictionary definitions. It covers nearly 200 iOS and iPadOS features, but the source does not give an exact total for the new languages and variants.
Why It Matters
The update extends language support beyond a single interface layer to everyday input, dictionary, voice-assistant, and visual-search features. Users whose languages or variants were added may therefore be able to use more built-in iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 capabilities in those languages.
