Apple Intelligence Personal, Private, Powerful
iPad mini is built for Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system that helps you express yourself and get things done effortlessly. With groundbreaking privacy protections, it gives you peace of mind that no one else can access your data not even Apple.◊◊
Writing Tools help you find just the right words and transform the way you communicate. Proofread your text, rewrite different versions until the tone is just right, and summarise selected text with a tap.
Apple Intelligence enables delightful ways to express yourself visually. Turn a rough sketch into a related image with Image Wand. And create new images based on descriptions, suggested concepts and even a person from your Photos library with Image Playground.
Awareness of your personal context enables Siri to help you in ways that are unique to you. Can’t find that hike recommendation from a friend? Siri can help find what you’re looking for, without compromising your privacy.
Apple Intelligence protects your privacy at every step. It’s integrated through on‑device processing, so it’s aware of your personal information without collecting your personal information. And with groundbreaking Private Cloud Compute, Apple Intelligence can draw on larger, Apple-designed server‑based models, running on Apple silicon, to handle more complex requests while protecting your privacy.
