In iOS 27, the new Siri appears as a glowing, elongated shape growing out of Dynamic Island. Its oval shape has a very specific reason \u2013 and on future iPhones, it could become a perfect circle.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the redesign of Siri AI, Apple also overhauled the assistant's visual appearance. Instead of the previous glow effect that traced the edges of the screen, the new Siri appears directly from within the Dynamic Island on the iPhone<\/a>. A rumor now connects this design to the upcoming iPhone generation \u2013 and suggests that the appearance could change there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Siri appears in iOS 27<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In iOS 27, when the Assistant is activated, a swirling, pill-shaped light source emerges from the Dynamic Island. Unlike the previous light ring at the edge of the display, this design conceals the actual cutouts in the screen \u2013 just like the other animations of the Dynamic Island, which mask the front camera and sensors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everywhere else, Siri is already a circle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It's noticeable that Apple depicts the assistant as round in most other places. This applies to the icon of the new, standalone Siri app, as well as to the promotional material surrounding iOS 27 and the original appearance on iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro. The elongated shape on the iPhone thus seems less like a design choice and more like a workaround necessitated by the current dynamic island hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why the shape depends on the Dynamic Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is precisely where the speculation begins. Rumors are circulating that the iPhone 18 Pro will have a narrower Dynamic Island<\/a>. X user @MichalLangmajer connected the two points, noting that the unusual shape of the Siri display is explained by the notch. On an iPhone 18 with the presumably smaller cutout, this could result in a perfect circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you were wondering why the iOS 27 Siri AI has such a weird shape, it's because of the notch.
