<p>The initial features of Apple Intelligence introduced with iOS 18.1 included several writing assistance tools. However, with the release of iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS Sequoia 15.2, these capabilities have been significantly enhanced, including a remarkable new feature that can generate text for you—completely free of charge.</p>

<p>With the arrival of iOS 18.2, users can take advantage of Apple’s collaboration with OpenAI in two main aspects:</p>

<p>The Compose feature is a valuable enhancement to the existing Apple Intelligence writing tools, offering system-wide support across nearly all applications.</p>

<p>Specific Apple applications such as Notes and Mail include dedicated buttons in their toolbars for accessing these writing features. Even if you’re in another app, you can still access them from the copy/paste menu by tapping in any text field.</p>

<p>At the bottom of the writing tools menu, you’ll discover Compose, which enables ChatGPT to generate original text based on your input.</p>

<p>While Apple’s previous writing tools only allowed for rewriting, proofreading, or formatting existing content, the new ChatGPT integration allows for full-fledged ghostwriting of original text almost entirely from a blank slate.</p>

<p>Simply tap the Compose button, specify your request to ChatGPT, and it will begin creating original text tailored to your needs.</p>

<p>After receiving the initial draft from ChatGPT, you can request adjustments or a complete rewrite. ChatGPT also offers suggestions for potential modifications.</p>

<p>While you can choose to upgrade to ChatGPT Plus for access to more advanced models, it's not a requirement.</p>

<p>Whether you're writing an email, crafting a text message, or working on an essay, the new Compose tool from Apple Intelligence is readily available wherever needed.</p>

<p>An additional upgrade to the writing tools in iOS 18.2 is the new option to ‘Describe your change’ for a customized AI rewrite.</p>

<p>In iOS 18.1, Apple Intelligence provided basic rewrite capabilities for existing text, striving to maintain your unique writing style. It also had provision for rewrites in three predefined styles:</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Friendly</li>
<li>Professional</li>
<li>Concise</li>
</ul>

<p>If these default options didn’t meet your needs, iOS 18.2 introduces a new and useful feature.</p>

<p>Located at the top of the writing tools panel, you’ll find a ‘Describe your change’ text box where you can enter detailed instructions for the rewrite you desire. Apple Intelligence will then proceed to generate revisions that meet your specifications.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ios-18-2-writing-upgrades-wrap-up">Summary of iOS 18.2 Writing Enhancements</h2>

<p>The original writing tools from Apple in iOS 18.1 were commendable, but the enhancements in 18.2 remarkably broaden the AI's capabilities. For many, facing a blank screen with a blinking cursor can be daunting, making the Compose feature an invaluable addition. My earlier experiences with rewrites have been varied, so the option to specify particular changes represents a significant improvement.</p>
