AI Assistant Instinct Adds iMessage Location Sharing With Geo-Triggered Actions
mon__lim · x · 2026-09-06
Instinct, an AI assistant, now supports location sharing on iMessage: with permission, it can recognize when you arrive somewhere and answer questions about where you've been.
Early alpha users are leveraging it to order food to their current location, find nearby lunch spots based on preferences, follow trip itineraries in new cities, and get step-by-step directions home including which train to catch.
It also supports geo-fenced triggers: actions fire when you enter or leave an area — e.g. a reminder to pick up your package when you get home, or having your boarding pass ready at the airport. Location history adds context for questions like "Where did I park?" or "How long was my bike ride?".
