MagicOS 11 Leak Claims Honor Magic9 Can Answer iPhone Calls with AI
According to a leak by tech blogger @旺仔百事通, Honor's upcoming MagicOS 11 update will allow the Magic9 smartphone to answer incoming iPhone calls directly using Honor's AI call assistant. Once answered, users can access call recording, real-time AI transcription, and perform automated actions via Honor's YOYO assistant. If implemented, this functionality highlights an aggressive push by Android manufacturers to bridge features across operating systems and integrate with Apple's ecosystem. It would provide multi-device owners with seamless AI call screening and management without being constrained by platform boundaries. The reported feature relies on Honor's cross-device connectivity framework to bridge call streams and delegate response tasks to its YOYO AI assistant. However, this capability remains an unconfirmed rumor, and technical specifics regarding iOS Bluetooth or cloud routing permissions were not disclosed.
## BACKGROUND
AI call assistants have become a key feature in flagship smartphones, enabling devices to screen spam, transcribe audio in real time, and converse with callers autonomously. Honor has developed its own AI ecosystem around the YOYO voice assistant, alongside continuous software improvements to improve compatibility between Android devices, Windows PCs, and iOS hardware.
