1/ Perplexity AI just dropped a big upgrade for iPhone and iPad users 🍏 — their voice assistant, which was Android-only, is now live on iOS. You can now tell Perplexity to write emails, set reminders, book a ride, or even make dinner plans, all by just talking to it.

2/ It doesn’t just stay inside the app. Perplexity taps into Apple’s Calendar, Reminders, Mail, and Maps to actually do stuff for you. Want a dinner reservation? It'll launch OpenTable. Need directions? It’s already pulling up Apple Maps. It’s low-key giving Siri a side-eye.

4/ If you wanna try it out: just update your Perplexity app, tap the little waveform button, give mic permissions, and boom—you’re chatting with an AI that can actually do things. You can even slap a shortcut on your lock screen for easy access.

5/ Perplexity’s voice assistant on iOS is a sneak peek into what AI on your phone should feel like—fast, helpful, and more hands-on than Siri. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely a vibe. Big W for iPhone users. 🤖

3/ That said, there are some limits 👀. Thanks to iOS rules, Perplexity can’t touch your camera, schedule alarms, or fully automate stuff like restaurant bookings—you’ll still need to hit "confirm" yourself. Basically, it’s smart... but it still plays by Apple’s rules.
