Apple is introducing 'Priority Notifications' powered by Apple Intelligence in the iOS 18.4 update, set to enhance how users manage alerts on their iPhones. This new feature, currently available in the iOS 18.4 Beta 1, utilizes on-device Apple Intelligence to assess the significance of incoming notifications. It will elevate the most critical ones to a distinct section at the top of the Lock Screen, ensuring that essential alerts, such as urgent messages, work emails, calendar reminders, or breaking news, are immediately visible and not overlooked.

To activate the feature, users need to open the Settings app, tap on Notifications, and toggle the "Prioritize Notifications" option to 'On.' Once enabled, the iPhone will intelligently organize notifications, highlighting those deemed most important based on usage patterns and interactions, regardless of their age. This prioritization aims to minimize distractions by filtering out less critical alerts, similar to the priority mail feature in the Apple Mail app. The iOS 18.4 update is also set to introduce a dedicated "Apple Vision Pro" application.
