Apple is Esther Moserslowly doling out more and more AI features to iPhone users, but it's coming at a price.
In just the last few months, the internal storage requirements to install Apple Intelligence on a supported Apple device (be it an iPhone, iPad, or Mac) have nearly doubled from the initial investment. According to a notice on Apple's website (spotted by 9to5Mac), installing Apple Intelligence on your device now requires 7GB of storage space.
SEE ALSO: Every foldable iPhone and iPad rumor we've heard so farFor context, the initial rollout of Apple Intelligence with iOS 18.1 only carried a 4GB install size. Ever since the iOS 18.2 update added more features like Genmoji to the mix, the storage requirement has ballooned in size.As Apple keeps adding onto Apple Intelligence in the future, don't be surprised if the commitment continues to increase. The oldest iPhone that can run Apple Intelligence is the iPhone 15 Pro, which starts with 128GB of internal storage.
It should also be noted that there's no way to install Apple Intelligence features piecemeal. You either get none of them or you get all of them.
For many, this won't be an issue. Not everyone fills up their camera rolls or Apple Music download queues, so not everyone is bumping up against the storage limits on their devices all the time. But for those who like to live that life, Apple Intelligence may not be worth it.
