Apple Removes 'Available Now' Claim from Intelligence Page Following NAD Review

Apple has quietly removed the "available now" designation from its Apple Intelligence marketing page following a National Advertising Division review.

The NAD, part of the Better Business Bureau, determined Apple's footnote explaining feature availability was "neither sufficiently clear and conspicuous nor close to the triggering claims."
