With Siri AI, Apple has updated App Intents to better understand data from your apps – with IntentValueRepresentation, RelevantEntities, EntityCollection, and SyncableEntity.
With Siri AI interacting with the same content from apps across devices, they need one stable ID to match up inside conversations.
When working with large data sets, developers using App Intents should mark them as EntityCollections for performance improvements – loading only the identifiers.
Apps can ensure Siri AI knows which content is most important using RelevantEntities – beyond donations or Spotlight indexing.
Some apps have unique types that Siri AI can’t understand by default – ValueRepresentation helps teach the system about your type.
Normally, App Intents have a 30-second limit to finish running – LongRunningIntent helps developers get beyond that by moving to a Live Activity. Plus, CancellableIntent makes sure it can be ended gracefully.
From Apple Developer: Level up your App Intents adoption with advanced features to make it faster, more flexible, and more relevant.
