How to Enable Apple Intelligence If You’re Outside the US

With the iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1, Apple introduced some AI features to its customers. This new AI package is called under the name Apple Intelligence. However, only those who live in the US can access these features because they are currently available in beta to developers in the US. How does someone who is living outside the US get access to these features? It is not a hard task, you can get these features easily except for those who live in the EU and China. At this time Apple Intelligence only works with US English. That is the main reason they limited these features to the US. But if you are ok with that and you have capable devices you can use it.
