OTN 60 No. 065: Calling an Airline Just Got a Lot Easier

Calling an airline just got a lot easier.

What happened

Apple added a feature called Call Context to the Phone app in iOS 27. When you call a business, your iPhone shows useful details on the screen, like a flight confirmation code it finds in your email.

Why it matters

No more digging through emails while someone waits on the line. Your iPhone can even read the code out loud for you. And if the first result isn’t the right one, other matches are just a tap away.

OTN take

Our take: this is official and already in iOS 27, but only in English, and only on devices with Apple Intelligence, like the iPhone 15 Pro and newer. It’s a small feature that saves real time.
