Key Points:
- Starting with iOS 27, Apple is changing how users access Notification Center on iPhone and iPad by reallocating swipe gestures to prioritize Siri AI activation.
- The traditional swipe down from the top center to open Notification Center now invokes Siri AI when enabled, while Notification Center can be accessed by swiping down from the top-left corner.
- On iPadOS 27, Notification Center’s activation area has been reduced and moved to the top-left corner, with the majority of the top edge dedicated to launching Siri AI.
- This change marks a significant shift after 15 years of muscle memory for users, with early feedback on the new Siri AI system being largely positive.
- iOS 27 is currently in beta and is expected to officially release in early September.
