    Has anyone ever got Hey Siri to work on a Mac mini with a USB microphone?

    I know Hey Siri works on a Mac mini with a Studio Display, but I've never found anyone who was able to get it to work with an external USB microphone. (And it doesn't work on my M4 Pro mini, either.) https://support.apple.com/en-by/guide/mac-mini/apdf7bb2fad4/mac says that "Hey Siri" should...

    Home HomePod and home automation - Hey Siri

    I recently got some HomePod minis, and they’re working nicely with our smart home setup. We also upgraded our window roller shutters to be HomeKit compatible. So now via Hey Siri on the HomePods we can open and close the roller shutters. It got me wondering… if we’re not at home, does Hey Siri...

    If there was one Siri command you could recommend to others, what is it?

    We all know she struggles & is a persistent annoyance, but we also know it’s not her fault - she’s been neglected for too many years, but she does shine when you know what to ask. This is my rock solid recommendation - without fail, Siri manages to do her job: “Siri, Torch on/off”. What...

    Hey Siri dictation and a certain swear word

    OK, delicate topic here... before 16.4.1 Siri was fine with me dictating the word C*** but now ALWAYS replaces it with 'current', but mostly with 'Conte'. I've reset the voice recognition and such like, to no avail. I know this is an international forum and that it's a bad word in the US and...

    HomePod Sudden homePod ‘Hey Siri’ sensitivity increase?

    I’ve got three HomePods in my home, 2 fullsize OG’s (1 upstairs, 1 downstairs) and a HomePod mini. One of the OG’s is in the living room, then I have the mini in the kitchen which is the other end of the house (would say around 15-20ft away). Have had this setup for a year, but for some reason...

    Mac Mini + Airpods = Hey Siri?

    I just got the new airpods and have a new mac mini updated to the latest OS. I can't seem to get "Hey Siri" to work with this combination. Does anyone know if this is supported? Edit: Turns out you can enable this: Settings -> Siri -> Enable "Hey Siri" on Airpods.

    Other Hey Siri While Playing Music

    Listed as a feature available on the apple website, as well as verified a feature by talking to apple support, it is almost impossible for me to activate Hey Siri while playing music above level 2 volume. Obviously the volume of the music interferes with the mic's ability to pick up voice, so my...

    Hey all, I could use some help. I updated to iOS12 on my 6s Plus. "Hey Siri" has stopped working. I've done everything I can think of, including: 1. Turned Siri on/off and retrained it many times. 2. Turned on/off dictation. 3. Hard-restarted the phone numerous times. 4. Various combinations...

    Hey Siri "You'll need to unlock your iPhone first"

    Updated to iOS 10.1 on my iPhone. Now Siri will not open any of my apps from the sleep state. With passcode set to require after 4 hours, and phone passcode unlocked, it does not work. In iOS 9.X I could say "Hey Siri, open maps" and the phone would wake up and maps would open. (assuming that...

    How do you send "Hey Siri" messages without another siri prompt?

    I'm certainly learning to use Siri more now that i've got a S2 Watch. I'm finding composing messages difficult. If i say "hey Siri" or hold the Digital Crown and say "Message Andrew and say I'm on my way to you" unless i say his full name or use the nickname, the watch will bring up every...

    Siri missing words on 6S dictation

    Every time I dictate to Siri using "Hey Siri" or by holding down the home button, Siri either misses the first word or two or comes up with a blank box completely. This is despite the iPhone actually picking up exactly what I've said (Look at attached screenshots). I tried different phrases...

    Hey Siri Won't Set Up On iPhone 6s

    Hi, I can't set up Hey Siri on my iPhone 6s running iOS 9.3.2. I've shut off Siri, turned it on, hard reset my iPhone, taken my case off, and made sure my microphone is clear. What happens is I click set up, say "Hey Siri!" For the first prompt, and it makes the little bar go up and down showing...

    Hey Siri...?

    I thought Siri was supposed to learn your voice for the Hey Siri feature? Or was that just an iPhone thing? The reason I ask is because I bought my wife an Apple Watch since I liked mine so much, and while I was showing her some features I used Hey Siri, and her watch responded along with mine...
