Here’s everything new for Apple Calendar in iOS 27
iOS 27 is packed with new features for Apple Wallet, Messages, Notes, and other system apps—including Calendar. Here’s everything new for Apple’s Calendar app in iOS 27.
Calendar adds a feature in iOS 27 that’s been on my wishlist for years: natural language input.
Apple calls this ‘Smart Event Details,’ and it’s powered by Apple Intelligence. Here’s how it’s described:
Type events in your own words. Apple Intelligence fills in the title, time, location, and invitees as you go.
This works for both events and reminders. You can type in natural language when creating or editing an event, and watch the event details automatically fill in based on what you type.
If you prefer the manual approach, you can toggle this off in Settings, but I’ve been very happy to have it.
Apple has updated Calendar’s design in iOS 27 in two main places:
When you tap an event, it now pops up in a card overlay with a fresh design. Event options have been reorganized and given icons to make them visually pop.
And for event creation and editing, iOS 27 has an updated look too. Like with event details, Apple has reorganized the various options and added icons for each category.
With modern digital calendars, the ability to mark yourself as busy or free related to a given event is a pretty standard feature. But until iOS 27, that option never existed for iCloud calendars.
