Gotta have iPhone 15 Pro, 16, or 16 Pro, unfortunately. Or an M-series iPad.

I have that. Still not getting the option.

Ah! Have you previously enabled Apple Intelligence? I think in 18.1 there was a queue thing to set it up. Could be that. I also vaguely remember there being something it had to download for the image stuff. Check in Settings, maybe? I was half asleep when I got it working so I don’t remember too well.

Thanks I think I figured it out. I had siri set to German, but once I switched it to English it started displaying in iMessage. Still says it's downloading so can't actually use it yet. Must be English exclusive?

Not surprising, I vaguely recall them saying they would roll out other language support over time.

This whole staged rollout very much smells of, “We were caught out by the industry shifting hard to AI and, despite including neural engines in our chips for a while, we weren’t ready.”
