Using Apple Writing Tools and Image Playground in the Buffer iOS app

If you're using iOS 18.2 and have access to Apple Intelligence, you can unlock tools such as AI Writing Tools and AI Image Playground to help you craft your next post. To use the following features, you'll need:

  • iOS 18.2 or later
  • access to Writing Tools and Apple Image Playground
  • Buffer iOS app 14.2.0.9 or later
  • to be located outside of the EU

Note for EU users: Due to EU regulations with AI, users in Europe will unfortunately not have access to these features.

Writing Tools

If you need help crafting the perfect caption for you post, you can easily access Apple's Writing Tools from the Buffer iOS composer. Simply highlight the text you'd like to change and then tap Writing Tools in the menu that appears:

This should open the Writing Tools menu, where you can describe the change you'd like to make, tweak the tone, ask to rewrite, or proofread your text.

Image Playground

If you'd like to create your own images for your post using Apple Intelligence, you can easily access Image Playground from the Buffer iOS composer. Simply click on Attach and then select Image Playground from the menu that appears, like this:

From there, you can describe the image you'd like to create, let the Image Playground do its magic, and once you're happy with your image, you can tap Done to insert the image into your Buffer post.
