Siri constantly apologizes over 3G and WiFi for me as well.

Also sometimes have problems with voice dictation (speech to text) taking 20-30 seconds to load if at all.

I've reset network settings and restored.

I know during the beta period it would work excellent all day without any problems. So it may really be too many people on their servers. Hopefully a fix soon! :D

I thought I was the only one!

Siri is practically useless for me since ios 7, my lte may not be 100mps but its usually around 20, which is plenty fast for running siri.

Jesus something needs to be done lol

I use to love siri, its either slow to respond or completely offline. I want to throw the phone onto the ground.

Ever since ios 7 if found a massive increase in can't connects or taking a while for voice dictation. It doesn't matter if it's 3/4G or Wifi

This is my experience too. When I'm on the go I dictate almost all email & text replies and get frustrated very fast when the spinning wheel appears and just keeps on spinning. I heavily rely on dictation and for Siri to set reminders and the increase in 'can't connect' is massive. (Short off topic but somewhat related bitch here, I'm hoping for a quick fix so I don't have to have Reminders running in order to rcv a geofenced reminder.)

It's kinda ironic that this thread started only 2 weeks after Siri was supposedly taken out of Beta.

Never had as many issues with it as I do currently and I have used it a lot since it made its debut.

Agreed. Siri was reliable in iOS 5 and 6.

iOS 7 is anything but.

I'll try sending an email to Eddy Cue, apparently he's the head honcho for internet services (incl. Siri)... since Apple support is absolutely useless for this sort of thing.

I get these pretty often too unfortunately. It's usually when I'm doing something simple, like "Wake me up at 5:30."

Same here. Plus the iOS 7.0.3 update got stuck at the black screen with the Apple logo. I did a hard reset and then it worked.

Going on two full days now so I think it's semi official; 7.0.3 fixes Siri. I haven't been able fault it once since the update and, separately, dictation seems much more responsive now, no more endless spinning loops.
