    iOS 27 adds four new features to the Notes app, including Markdown copy and paste

    The upcoming iOS 27 update revealed by Apple last week includes new features and improvements for Apple’s Notes app on iPhone.

    iOS 27 is currently available in developer beta, with a public beta to follow in July. The update is expected to be released to all users in September.

    Below, we’ve outlined four additions to Apple’s Notes app in iOS 27.

    Siri AI

    On iPhone 15 Pro and later, the most intelligent and personal version of Siri known as “Siri AI” can create notes with generated content. For example, you can ask Siri AI to create a note with a list of all iPhone models compatible with iOS 27, and it will do so after retrieving this information from the internet.

    On iOS 26 and earlier, Siri can only create notes based on words you actually say.

    Additionally, Siri AI will intelligently display an “Add to Notes” shortcut under certain messages in the Messages app based on the context of the conversation.

    Copy and paste in Markdown

    iOS 27 introduces the ability to copy and paste text formatted in the Markdown language, created by famous Apple commentator John Gruber.

    Markdown allows you to add formatting to text without using HTML:

    • Bold text: **bold**
    • Text in italics: *italic*
    • Related text: (Apple)(https://apple.com)
    • List item: - Example

    For example, if you paste “Apple’s next CEO is **John Ternus**” into the Notes app on iOS 27, “John Ternus” will appear in bold text.

    Conversely, if you select formatted text in the Notes app and press the right arrow in the Cut/Copy/Paste menu that opens, there is a new “Copy as Markdown” option on iOS 27. If you press this option, any rich text formatting in your selection will automatically be converted to Markdown that can be pasted elsewhere.

    Apple Notes is already supported for importing and exporting Markdown files on iOS 26.

    Dividing lines

    iOS 27 lets you organize notes with separator lines. Simply place the text cursor where you want the line to be inserted, press the right arrow in the Cut/Copy/Paste menu that opens and press the new “Insert Separator Line” option.

    Links to sections

    You can now add a link to a specific section of a note. When you tap the link, the Notes app automatically jumps to that section of text.

    For example, you can create a new note that links to a section of a previous note.
