Hi all,

iOS 10 brought a great, hardly spoken about feature that allows devices to know if antoher active device has had Siri invoked, and cancel the one not being used.

For example, if you say Hey Siri, and give a command, both your iPad and Apple Watch would be triggered, but then the iPad would cancel once it realized the Apple Watch was handling the request.

How good is this feature working for you? In my experience it works less than half the time. I had turned on Hey Siri on the new phone because of the feature (I had it turned off before because double Siri on Watch and phone was not cool), but I ended up turning off Hey Siri on the phone again because the feature is so inconsistent.

What is your success rate - and if it is better than mine, how do I improve it?
