    Whisper to siri

    Why can’t we whisper to Siri? Siri has been improved in the years, but still no one thought about whispering to Siri as a feature. If you ask Siri something it should be the same volume as you.

    Siri totally F ed

    I've been having some problems with Siri. 1. "Finder hasn't added support for that with Siri" when you ask her for files 2. Either doing a Bing image search or just opening the Photos app when you ask her for Photos 3. Sometimes not responding at all. You click, say "Hey Siri", etc. Nothing...

    Weird Siri voice changes

    Has anyone had any issues with Siri in the recent 15.4 update. I have mine set to Irish Female (for my own reasons....) and most of the time she is the usual perky feedback. Occasionally though I will get feedback in a much more robotic, synthesized version of the voice. This has only recently...

    Do people use an Apple Watch 7 without Siri?

    Hello, Just looking for some very general advice on Apple Watch 7 as I have been thinking about getting one for a while. I have however tried to stay away from using Siri as I am an oldtimer and feel stupid speaking into a device ;) So I assume an Apple Watch without using Siri is generally...

Happy to change to something short, "play stupid radio" or anything like that. The problem is, that every time I create...

    iPhone 12 Pro SIRI voice recognition

    Hello, I switched to iphone back in 2020 with the 12pro. Before this I had been a long time android user going back to 2012 (before that I had a 3gs so I guess i'm back). I love my iphone and I am fully in the apple ecosystem now. There is just one thing I miss though and that's google's voice...

    HomePod HomePod mini issue

    We have had HomePod mini for a few months but have only encountered this issue yesterday. Possibly caused by 1 5.3 update. The device recognises my and my wife’s voice separately and is pretty good at playing our own individual playlists. However when my wife asked Siri to play her station it...

    HomeKit Anyone else thinking of giving up with HomeKit?

    I keep coming around to the idea that HomeKit might not be the one for me anymore and was wondering if anyone else felt the same? I am unable to find decent products (doorbells, I’m looking at you) the products I do find all seem to require their own app or cloud service and when Siri does...

    iPhone 13 Pro Does turning off Siri help?

    I know iPhone comes with easy access default to Siri by blurbing "hey siri." Does turning it off give you any security benefit? I mean, it won't stop Apple from listening and collecting data from my device by turning it off. Any benefit to leaving voice activation off?

    Using Siri to tag in Notes 🥵

    Using Siri to tag something in the Notes app doesn’t show up as an active tag #️⃣ It just shows up as text with a hashtag at the front of it. However, when you use the keypad it works perfectly – turns yellow, is active and will get sorted and organised - as it ought. Dictating, “new line” or...

    HomePod HomePod Siri now knows Dutch in 15.2b

    Good news for the people with Dutch as their native language! The HomePod version of Siri now (15.2b) speaks Dutch. The Belgian (Flemish) version is available as an option, but the voice remains the same. Guess the HomePod will soon be for sale in The Netherlands!
