It is likely to be iCloud-based and could build upon the company&#8217;s recent ambitions of revamping its Calendar app. The new service is said to be tied to the Cupertino-based technology giant&#8217;s most recent update for the <a class=\"sp_lnk2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/tags\/iphone\">iPhone<\/a>, which was released to the public last week.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"apple-s-confetti-service\">Apple&#8217;s \u2018Confetti&#8217; Service<\/h2>\n<p>In the latest edition of his Power On <a class=\"sp_lnk2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/newsletters\/2025-02-02\/apple-aapl-ai-and-ar-struggles-show-it-has-lost-some-of-its-product-edge\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">newsletter<\/a>, Bloomberg&#8217;s Mark Gurman highlights that Apple&#8217;s new iCloud-based service may be dubbed \u2018Confetti&#8217;. It is expected to be released internally as soon as this week as a \u201cnew way to invite people to parties, functions, and meetings\u201d. The journalist says it will be tied to the iOS 18.3 update, which was <a class=\"sp_lnk2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/mobiles\/news\/ios-18-3-iphone-release-features-apple-intelligence-7576026\">released<\/a> recently with key changes to the Apple Intelligence-powered notification summaries feature.<\/p>\n<p>However, it still remains unknown if Apple will offer its new \u2018Confetti&#8217; service as a standalone app or as a mini app within other apps such as Messages or Calendar.<\/p>\n<p>This revelation builds upon the recent <a class=\"sp_lnk2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/apps\/news\/ios-18-3-invites-app-iphone-apple-report-7441029\">claims<\/a> that the company was developing a new app dubbed \u2018Invites&#8217; which is designed for organising meetings and sharing invites for in-person and online events. With this new service, Apple is speculated to provide users with a list of the people invited to a certain event and inform them about those who have RSVP&#8217;d their attendance for it.<\/p>\n<p>The references for the app were reportedly discovered in the latest beta version of iOS 18.3&#8217;s code.<\/p>\n<p>Apple could differentiate this service from the existing Calendar app, which offers similar functionality, by adding some additional features. The company is reported to offer <a class=\"sp_lnk2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/tags\/icloud\">iCloud<\/a> integration and it could even have a web version on iCloud.com. Further, it may also be integrated with a daemon in Apple&#8217;s operating systems dubbed GroupKit. It enables communication and sharing between apps and users leveraging app groups, groups, and, GroupActivityMetadata.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"downloadtxt margin_b20\">\n                For the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/news\">tech news<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gadgets360.com\/reviews\">reviews<\/a>, follow Gadgets 360 on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gadgets360\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">X<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/gadgets360\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaB3o5hHltY9SJbXg335\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">WhatsApp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@gadgets.360\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Threads<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqBwgKMILm3AowtoHPAQ?hl=en-IN&amp;gl=IN&amp;ceid=IN%3Aen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Google News<\/a>.
