Meta Promotes Own AI Over Apple's | Justo Global

Meta has disabled Apple Intelligence-powered Writing Tools across its iOS apps, including WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook, while promoting its own Meta AI solutions. The tools, which enable text formatting, rewriting, and summarizing features, remain functional in other third-party apps like X and Reddit. Meta is now displaying "Write with Meta AI" banners to showcase its text-editing capabilities, including AI-powered caption suggestions based on content elements. The company has also restricted iPhone users from creating or sharing Apple's Genmoji on their platforms.
