Apple Inc. is preparing a major upgrade to its Photos app across iOS 27, iPadOS
27 and macOS 27, adding AI-powered tools under its Apple Intelligence platform,
according to people familiar with the matter. New features will include Extend,
Enhance and Reframe capabilities for image generation and editing, alongside an
updated Clean Up tool. The move aims to narrow the gap with rivals such as
Alphabet Inc. and Samsung Electronics. Some tools face reliability issues in
testing, and Apple may delay or scale back features.
