iOS 18 is due to launch on Monday, so the iOS 18 developer and public betas are winding down. But the iOS 18.1 beta, which is currently the only way to try Apple Intelligence features on iPhone, is still in development, and a big new bug has been discovered
Several users running iOS 18.1 beta 3 (via 9to5Mac) have reported online on various forums such as Reddit's r/iOSBeta that Siri no longer works for them. A pop-up appears when trying to summon the digital assistant saying that Siri is not available and a Wi-Fi connection is needed to finish downloading it. Except even with a Wi-Fi connection, this update never materializes, leaving Siri disabled.
