Using Facebook through Siri... can you send messages?

[sflomenb]

For those of you with the iOS 6 beta, how does Facebook through Siri work? Can you do other things besides update your status? (like send a message to someone)

Anywhere u get the keyboard for typing you get the mic symbol for dictation no matter what app

I am aware of that. However, I was wondering specifically through Siri if the only way you can use Facebook is updating your status

At the Keynote they showed Siri post a status update. The OP is wondering if you can also send messages.

Was this done without the Facebook app running? I can't remember if so I can't replicate it?

I told Siri: "Send a Facebook message to (user)"

Siri replied: "I can't send Facebook posts to someone."

All I can do is status updates from within the Facebook app using the mic button. I do like opening my apps now with Siri

Also when you tell Siri to post a facebook status it doesn't read back until you state "review" then it'll read the post back.

I said "Post 'hello' to Facebook" and she updated my status after asking me to confim, like if I was texting.

Siri replied: "I can't send Facebook posts to someone."

I'm sure they'll add this functionality at some point since Siri does seem to recognize what you mean.

Facebook & Twitter can both be updated using Siri. Pretty neat but I wouldn't say anything overly long as I'm sure mistakes will be made
