"I struggle to find genuinely helpful artificial intelligence features in daily life. Sure, removing unwanted objects from my photos is nice to have, but most other AI capabilities on recent phones have been one-time party tricks at best. Unlike one of those features, I found a handy use case with Galaxy AI on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra last year. A similar capability is now making its way to your iPhone with iOS 26."
"As a freelancer who needs to coordinate with multiple people across apps and time zones for deadlines and meetings, adding things to my calendar helps me block my time and be more organized. You usually need to add things manually to your Calendar app, which can be time-consuming. After all, it adds up if you're doing this task multiple times per day. I struggle with this manual approach, and that is why it feels refreshing to have this ability just a tap away."
The Add to Calendar feature uses Visual Intelligence to extract event details from screenshots and suggests an Add to Calendar prompt. A single tap creates an editable calendar event populated with date, time, and location. The feature is available on all iPhones compatible with iOS 26 and has become more intuitive from developer beta to the stable build. The implementation prioritizes accuracy and avoids hallucinations compared with similar Android features. The automation reduces repetitive manual entry, saving time for users who coordinate across apps and time zones, improving scheduling efficiency and organization.
