How are you finding raise to talk to Siri without "Hey Siri"

[Toonartist]

Haha, i just tested that and now it started working again.

I like how Siri varies his answers..... which is just as well given the number of times I've said it!

Has only worked once or twice. Thus far worthless.

S3 or S4?

I find that for my S3 I have to be very specific. It’s not only rasing the watch close to my mouth but also have to align the microphone facing my mouth too. It’s like talking to the microphone, otherwise it won’t trigger Siri.

The former.

No it’s the latter.

doesn't work for me at all

Did you activate it? I believe it may be turned off by default. Although it doesn’t work consistently for me I can’t imagine it not working at all.

That’s strange. Apple def needs to fix it in an update. It is nice when it works. I notice I need to brink the watch pretty close to my mouth to work.

It works for me, but I have to be very deliberate. I prefer the 'old way' as it seems that Siri responds better to her name called.
I am assuming Apple made this change so Siri could stop listening a second or two after being awakened, thus saving power. The current setup basically has Siri listening for only a second or so then ... she's gone.

If nobody can work out what you’re saying, then it’s most likely you that’s the issue. Your posts are deliberately misleading so you can argue.

I can only say what I saw.

Perhaps if everyone is telling you you’re wrong, you just may be wrong.

Siri does not come up just from you simply raising your wrist to your mouth. Period. Otherwise, what would differentiate that between raising your wrist to simply check the time?

The answer: talking. Siri comes up when you raise your wrist and talk. If you don’t say anything, no Siri. Because certainly the watch thinks you his want to check the time. (Spoiler alert: that’s where the watch face comes in).

That’s what everyone is trying to explain to you. I’m not sure what part you don’t understand.

Well, I never say what’s right or wrong, and I don’t even care. I can only tell what I saw.

It doesn’t like this feature is consistent, or mature, enough to say what can and can not happen.

Never say I have problem with what other people said and they’re “wrong”. Just have problem with someone twisted my words.

Raise to wake works very unreliable for me, probably in part due to the fact that I am wearing long sleeve coat and have to pull the cuff back a bit to see watch. "Hey Siri" on the other hand works pretty much every time - much better than my S0 where it only listened on raise to wake.

Barely works for me.

 

[cnev3]

Never works for me. I don't mind that really since i'd rather conserve battery life, and tapping the screen before using siri is quick and simple enough. I do think that the feature should not be included if it's not going to work consistently.

 

[c.s.]

If I raise the watch all the way to my face, it works every time. If I'm lazy about it and only raise to chest level, it almost never works.

Me too. And give my regards to Tolkien.

Now that I've jumped through the right hoops so that she'll talk to me at all, it works really well.
