Things 3 Updated for iOS 27 With Siri AI and Spotlight Integration
Cultured Code today released Things 3.24, adding integration with iOS 27's new Siri AI and system-wide Spotlight search.
The most significant addition is full support for Siri AI, allowing users to create to-dos by speaking naturally to add tasks. Once a to-do is created, users can continue the conversation to append notes, start dates, and alerts without opening the app.
Things 3.24 also indexes a user's entire database in Spotlight, allowing to-dos and projects to be surfaced through system-wide search. Siri AI can draw on that same Spotlight index to fulfill requests. Users who would prefer to keep their task data out of system search can turn the feature off in Things' settings.
The update brings a wider range of snooze intervals for notifications, adding 15 minute, one hour, and three hour options alongside a new "snooze until tomorrow" choice.
Cultured Code also adds an XL Portrait widget, giving users a way to view longer lists directly from the Home Screen. The update includes various other compatibility improvements for the new operating system.
Things 3.24 arrives alongside iOS 27, which Apple launches later today.
