Apple Intelligence Clears Regulatory Filing in China
新智元 · wechat · 2026-07-15
The Cyberspace Administration of China announced that seven on-device generative AI services have completed regulatory filings, including Apple Intelligence, Huawei Xiaoyi, OPPO AndesGPT, vivo Blue Heart, Xiaomi HyperAI, Samsung Galaxy AI, and Nubia Doubao. This signals a wave of approvals for domestic smartphone AI.
For Apple, the localization path for Apple Intelligence is now clear: Alibaba Qwen will be integrated to provide Chinese users with text and image understanding, as well as content generation, without needing to switch apps. The article also recalls the brief, accidental appearance of the "Apple Intelligence & Siri" toggle on local iPhones, which was quickly removed and speculated to be a test.
