iOS 27 reimagines Notification Center as Siri AI reshapes top-edge gestures
iOS 27 changes how Notification Center is opened: with Siri AI enabled, swiping from the center of the top edge now launches Siri, while swiping from the top-left corner still opens Notification Center and alerts animate from there. The beta builds show a shrinking Notification Center surface in favor of Siri AI, a shift after 15 years of the same gesture, with a full release expected this fall.
