Apple’s planned smart glasses could let Siri book a ride, reserve a table or order coffee without users pulling out their phones, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The trick: third-party apps would still run on a paired iPhone, not inside the frames. Your pocket isn’t being made redundant just yet. Source
In his November 15, 2026, Power On newsletter, Gurman reports that Apple is targeting an unveiling at its developer conference in June 2027, followed by shipments before that year ends. Software is running behind, and Gurman says both milestones remain uncertain despite still being on Apple’s schedule. Source Source
Siri needs developers to play along
The reported strategy is to give Siri access to specific functions within existing iPhone apps. Developers wouldn’t need to build separate glasses apps, but they would need to make those functions available to the assistant. Simply having an app installed wouldn’t automatically put Siri in charge of it. Source
Gurman lists OpenTable reservations, Uber or Lyft rides, and Starbucks orders among the uses envisioned inside Apple. These are possibilities, not a confirmed roster of participating services. Each developer would have to add the necessary Siri integration before the assistant could complete those requests. Source
The groundwork is already appearing on the phone, according to the report. November’s first iOS 27.3 beta introduced more precise app control through voice commands and Siri’s chatbot interface. Controls for Apple’s own apps were being prepared for December 2026, with full third-party developer support expected in 2027. Source
