• iOS 26.1 最大的亮點是 Apple Intelligence 的繁體中文支援，這是 Apple 第一次在 AI 應用中加入繁體中文。這不僅提升了本地用戶的使用體驗，也讓更多使用繁體中文的用戶能夠享受 Apple 智慧系統帶來的便利。除了繁體中文之外，這次更新也擴大支援到包括丹麥文、荷蘭文、挪威文等多種語言，進一步推廣其全球化的語言支持策略。 

• 在完成 iOS 26.1 系統更新後，Apple Intelligence 並不會自動啟用，使用者需手動開啟相關設定方可正式使用。若您在升級後未發現 Apple Intelligence 相關功能，請依照以下步驟操作即可。 開啟方式：
1：打開 iPhone 主畫面的 「設定」App。 
2：向下滑動，找到全新的 「Apple Intelligence 與 Siri」 選項，然後點擊進入。 
3：在此頁面中，您將看見三個主要設定項目：
        o  Apple Intelligence
        o  Siri 
        o  ChatGPT 延伸功能

• 使用者可根據個人需要，自行選擇啟用或停用這些功能。需要注意的是，首次啟用 Apple Intelligence 時，系統可能要求下載繁體中文語言模型並同意隱私條款；只要依指示完成即可順利開啟服務。

提示： 建議於 Wi-Fi 環境下進行首次設定，以確保語言資源下載完成，確保 Apple Intelligence 功能正常運作。

這次更新引入了多項 AI 功能：
• 書寫工具：協助用戶校正寫作風格，自動優化文字風格，使郵件、備忘錄內容更精煉專業。

Siri 的增強特效對話框提升了互動體驗，對話更加流暢自然。視覺智慧(Visual Intelligence) 功能則能快速辨識螢幕內容，幫助用戶提高資訊處理效率。例如，透過影像智慧功能，用戶可以快速從螢幕上擷取資訊，甚至將重要通知添加至行事曆，讓日常管理變得更加高效。 

iOS 26.1 的另一個亮點是 AirPods 的即時翻譯功能，這次加入了繁體中文、簡體中文、日文、韓文等語言的支援，大幅提升了跨國交流的便利性。過去僅支援英語、法語等語言，這次的更新讓 AirPods 成為旅行和國際溝通的有力工具。 目前即時翻譯功能主要支援搭載 H2 晶片的 AirPods Pro（第二代） 及 AirPods Max 新版本。 
翻譯語言包括繁體中文、簡體中文、英文、日文、韓文等，用戶可在「設定」→「藍牙」→「AirPods」→「語言翻譯」中開啟功能。 此功能須搭配 iPhone 15 Pro 或以上型號，並需連線網絡使用。

• The biggest highlight of iOS 26.1 is Apple Intelligence’s support for Traditional Chinese. This is Apple’s first time integrating Traditional Chinese into its AI applications. This not only enhances the experience for local users but also allows more Traditional Chinese-speaking users to enjoy the convenience Apple’s smart system brings. In addition to Traditional Chinese, this update also expands support to languages such as Danish, Dutch, and Norwegian, further promoting Apple’s global language support strategy. 

• After completing the iOS 26.1 system update, Apple Intelligence will not be automatically activated. Users need to manually enable related settings to start using it. If you do not see Apple Intelligence features after upgrading, please follow the steps below:
1. Open the “Settings” app from your iPhone’s home screen. 
2. Scroll down to find the new “Apple Intelligence & Siri” option, then tap to enter. 
3. On this page, you will see three main configuration options：
        o  Apple Intelligence
        o  Siri 
        o  ChatGPT Extensions

• Users can choose to enable or disable these functions based on personal preference. Please note that when enabling Apple Intelligence for the first time, the system may request to download the Traditional Chinese language model and ask for privacy agreement consent; simply follow the instructions to complete activation.

Tip: It is recommended to perform the initial setup under a Wi‑Fi environment to ensure the language resource download completes successfully, guaranteeing Apple Intelligence works properly.

Siri’s upgraded interactive effect box improves user interaction, making conversations smoother and more natural.

For example, through visual image intelligence, users can extract information directly from the screen or add important reminders to their calendar, improving daily management productivity.

Another highlight of iOS 26.1 is the real-time translation feature for AirPods, which now supports Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean—greatly enhancing cross-lingual communication convenience. Previously, only English and French were supported, but with this update, AirPods have become powerful tools for travel and international communication.  

Currently, real-time translation mainly supports the AirPods Pro (2nd generation) and updated versions of AirPods Max equipped with the H2 chip. 

Supported translation languages include Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean. Users can enable this function via: Settings → Bluetooth → AirPods → Language Translation.
