How to Bring Polish Language Support to Siri and Apple Intelligence

Select Language:

Are you wondering when Apple will finally support the Polish language in Siri and Apple Intelligence? You’re not alone. Many users in Poland, which boasts a significant Apple user base, are frustrated by this lack of support.

Understanding the Situation

Poland has a population of around 38 million people and ranks as the 42nd most populous country globally. With a 90% internet penetration rate and mobile connections exceeding the total population, it’s clear that Poland is a tech-savvy nation. In fact, Apple’s iOS holds 21% of the mobile operating system market in Poland, translating to over 8 million active iPhone users. Many more are using iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and other Apple devices.

The Current Issue

Despite this large user base, Polish speakers are left in the dark. Siri and Apple Intelligence do not support the Polish language, while countries with far smaller populations, like Denmark (with about 5.9 million people), have enjoyed full support for years. This includes high-quality features like neural text-to-speech and smart assistant capabilities, which have been available since iOS 8.3 in 2015. Even languages like Finnish and Norwegian, spoken by fewer users, have received the support Polish lacks.

At Apple’s 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference, the company announced an expansion of Apple Intelligence’s language features to eight new languages—but yet again, Polish was not among them. This raises questions about how Apple makes its decisions regarding language support.

Why Is This Happening?

Interestingly, Polish dictation is already available on iOS, meaning the necessary language models exist within Apple’s system. So, why the hold-up for Siri and Apple Intelligence? This suggests that the barriers are more about business choices than technical limitations.

For now, Polish users either have to use Siri in English—diminishing their overall experience—or completely give up on these features. This inequity is even more glaring when you consider that competitors like Google Assistant have supported Polish since 2019.

What Can You Do?

If you’re looking for solutions in the meantime, here are some steps you can take:

Submit Feedback to Apple: Use the Apple feedback page to voice your concerns about Polish language support. The more users who express their need, the louder the message will be.
Engage on Social Media: Share your thoughts on platforms like Twitter or Facebook. Tag Apple and use common hashtags to raise awareness.
Explore Alternatives: While waiting for Apple to catch up, consider using other services like Google Assistant that already support Polish.
Stay Informed: Keep an eye on announcements during upcoming Apple events. Changes in language support could be announced at any time.

The Bottom Line

The frustration over the lack of Polish language support in Siri and Apple Intelligence is understandable. With a significant user base in Poland, it’s time for Apple to step up and offer the same level of support that users in smaller markets enjoy. By voicing your opinion and exploring available alternatives, you can make your needs known while waiting for change.
