iOS 14.3 Lets Siri Replicate Sounds Like Lion Roaring

[haruhiko]

Hey Siri, what does the Fox say?

 

[applicious84]

Hey Siri, what does it sound like when a virtual assistant actual does something? (OK, google...)

 

[RumorConsumer]

Listen to this

 

[iLilana]

works fine

 

[groundedUX]

I would really enjoy the sound of accuracy.

 

[Rigby]

The lion example works for me. Great for kids, but personally I was disappointed that it's a real lion roar, and not Siri trying to imitate one. 😉

Not working for me. "What does a lion sound like?" causes Siri to display web search results. Typical.

Same for me. My HomePod just sent search results to my phone. Looks like the update hasn’t reached me, yet.

 

[Corsig]

I asked Siri what does a lion sound like and she thought I said lying. Told me my butt doesn’t look big in my jeans

I would really enjoy the sound of accuracy.

Did your lion meow? 🤣

 

[MrGimper]

Wow, setting timers AND making animal noises .... feeling really spoilt here today.

Hey Siri, what does the fox say?

Siri has been doing this one for years.

 

[sundaysdrowse]

Still no multi language support

 

[iGüey]

And what about "what does an angry mother in law sound like?"


To the serious ones: I’m just kidding! 🤣

You could do this on both Alexa and Google for years. By having an article about this clearly shows how far behind Apple is.

 

[^^BIGMac]

Try fixing the message bug and calls going straight to VM instead of this nonsense.

Damn Apple. Wake up.

 

[Davidglenn]

Sorry, all I get is 'I found this on the web, check it out'. Not widely distribute yet

 

[filchermcurr]

Weird. Not only did mine find it on the web, but it included the 'Hey Siri' part of the query.

 

[MacBH928]

Joke aside, I can see how this will be fun and educational to kids.

 

[incoherent_1]

Still only about 50% reliable for basic requests but sure this sounds like a great use of resources.

 

[oliversl]

Only works in the CNBC iPhone, it not yet available worldwide

 

[derekamoss]

Hey Siri, what does the fox say?

Cortana actually does the sound. Been there since the beginning lol.

 

[v3rlon]

have they got a jumping shark sound?

No, the sharks were endangered. The do have the sound of a jumping mutated, ill-tempered sea bass with a frickin' LASER BEAM shooting out of its forehead.

Alexa and Google aren’t relevant to those who don’t allow internet-connected hot mics in their household or business premises.

But sure, it’s amazing that Google and Amazon did it first. Congratulations to them!!!

Has been for Siri too

 

[Jason2000]

Google is doing that for years, welcome to Actual world outside of Matrix of Apple.

I think maybe they were being sarcastic with their reply.
