Hey everyone. If you have any specific questions regarding how to set up or sharing a Shortcut head over to r/shortcuts and share it over there. That way we can keep this sub focused on Siri features rather than the Shortcuts app. Thanks!

Dumbed down?

0 Upvotes

So, it seems Siri has been dumbed down. Stuff it used to be able to do, it can’t now without suggesting help from ChatGPT and can’t even give a complete weather forecast. It’s pitiful.

Does Siri suck now to anyone else

I feel like Siri on the iPhone 16 is useable. I ask to look up number it looks up something random, I ask to call it finds me directions, anyone else having issues or does Siri just suck now?

Why didn’t Siri call 911 for me?

5 Upvotes

I was recently involved in a car crash and my phone was plugged in for CarPlay. I was dazed but able to say “Hey Siri, call 911”. She responded “Now calling emergency services” but then just continued to play the music that was playing when I was hit. Is this a known issue? My only other thought was my phone switching between Bluetooth for Siri and usb for CarPlay and that transition overrode the call or something?

My iPhone 16 Pro Max with iOS 18.4 (and prior 18 versions) no longer lets me tell siri to send a text without unlocking the screen

2 Upvotes

Siri no longer lets me tell her to send a text without unlocking the screen. For example, when my phone is in the car connected to Bluetooth, the screen is obviously locked. I used to be able to just talk to it and have it send text messages for me.

Say “Be not afraid” to see its reaction

4 Upvotes

Say “be not afraid” to Siri and see what responses you get. In my experience, Siri just quit.

I’m curious to see if it’s a glitch with my phone or an issue with everyone. Please share your experience

I asked it to call me a taxi, cab, Uber.

Siri hearing what I say before I press the button

I will speak, and then hold the side button, say something else, and both what I said before and after will appear. It also takes 30 years to respond.

Turn off command toggles on lights to off and off lights to on

1 Upvotes

It’s in the title, but if I have a room with five lights, three are on and I said, “Turn off [room]” Siri used to turn everything off.

Recently the behavior went to on lights being turned off…however, all the off lights get turned on. It is like it is coming across as a toggle state.

AND, when I tell it to “Turn off [room] LIGHTS” it turns off everything appropriately. Is this a new “feature?”

So I said Siri, scene 2, and it gave me this response and another goofy paragraph. Any clue why it did this?

I found some web results, I can show them if you ask again from your iPhone 📲

2 Upvotes

I think most would agree this response from a HomePod is infuriating.

I know that the Apple developers must serve these forums and Reddit posts. So my ask is that instead of making us all super pissed off with these inane stupid responses automatically send the result to the iPhone or make a toggle that allows it to send the result to the iPhone with our permission always.

Siri is just so F and useless (this was Siri btw) and I’m actually disappointed for many years now because it was the best in the beginning and quite easily surpassed within a couple of years and then never caught up. Rant over.

Siri faking me out

1 Upvotes

I have the latest update in my software and I have Siri turned on. I have automatically send messages and I said hey Siri send Sachin such a message and then it said what’s your message so I told it my message and it said OK and then it said, I heard the woosh sound. I look at my messages and nope nothing is sent. Is it being sent from somewhere else? Used to show up in my message app as part of the ongoing conversation.

Siri while using other apps (help please)

0 Upvotes

Scenario: I’m listening to YouTube or similar app (so phone screen is on although I may be multitasking and not actually staring at the screen). I’m using my earbuds and say “Siri what time is it?” Siri puts the answer on the screen but does not say it out loud.

This is so frustrating!

I checked my settings but I don’t see one that would specifically allow Siri’s response to temporarily override the audio to provide an answer. I know the phone is capable because I can get audio alerts for other apps (teams, outlook, messages) but not Siri. Am I missing something?

Can I get Siri/Apple Intelligence in a window similar to CoPilot and other chat apps?

1 Upvotes

Sounds like a stupid question but I'd like to have the similar functionality that I have with CoPilot where I can have an app/window open that shows my chat prompts and replies and not just the Siri search bar.

Currently I use CoPilot as an app on macOS (saved through Safari "Add to Dock) and it works well as a stand alone app but I would prefer to use Siri. I tried to use it as it is but it's not near as smooth where I can look back to chat history, links etc.
