Bypass Siri Waitlist in MacOS Golden Gate 27 Beta with a Terminal Trick

If you’re already running the macOS 27 Golden Gate beta, and you’d like to gain access to the new Siri capabilities that require joining a waitlist, you can use a little Terminal trick to bypass the Siri waitlist. Really! And no, you don’t need to disable SIP or do anything too crazy, it’s achieved through a defaults write command.

And once you bypass the Siri waitlist on the Mac, you will also have access to the new Siri AI features on any iPhone or iPad sharing the same Apple ID running iOS 27 beta or iPadOS 27, so this approach functions as a way to bypass the Siri waitlist on iPhone and iPad too.

How to Bypass the Siri Waitlist with MacOS 27 Golden Gate Beta

From the Mac running MacOS Golden Gate 27 beta:

1. Open the Terminal app on your Mac
2. Enter the following command and hit return

sudo defaults write "/Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/GenerativeModels.plist" "EnhancedSiriWaitlist" -dict-add Enabled -bool NO

3. Then restart your Mac

After MacOS Golden Gate reboots, you should find that the enhanced Siri features are now available and enabled.

The interesting thing about this is it unlocks Siri AI not only on your Mac, but also on any iOS 27 iPhone, or iPadOS 27 iPad, as long as it’s using the same Apple ID.

Cheers to @stephancasas on X for the find. Let us know if you try this out, and what you think of the new Siri.
