Safari gets a new Start Page with four tabs. The Weather app adds a 'Conditions' panel. Image Playground is redesigned with a 'describe a change' option. Search is integrated into the bottom bar in most Apple apps. Writing Tools gain a 'Write With Siri' toggle and grammar check. The Shortcuts app can create app shortcuts via natural language. The Photos app gets an 'Apple Intelligence Tools' section with Extend, Enhance, and Reframe options.
