    Siri always replies at 100% volume on iPhone

    (iOS 17.1.1 on iPhone 15 Pro Max) Siri is always replying to any requests at 100% volume (which is LOUD), regardless of the volume setting. I've tried asking "her" to lower the volume, which she SAYS she has done, but the replies are still at 100% (even when she amusingly says she cant take any...

    iOS 17.1 Car Play still doesn’t work

    I have not been able to send a text message or reply to a text message using Siri in Car Play since getting iPhone 15 pro with iOS 17.0.1. It was not fixed in 17.0.2 or 17.0.3 and now it is still not fixed in 17.1 I spoke to senior Apple tech support. They said it was a known issue but didn’t...

    Anyone having issues with Siri on Carplay?

    So my iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS17 is doing something erratic. When I connect it to my car, it seems to work fine - Carplay fires up and I can use navigation and podcasts etc. But Siri isn't working properly. When I trigger it from the button on the steeering wheel, the icon comes up on the...

    Why can’t Siri turn VPN on for me?

    Is there a way to turn on VPN the does not require switching to settings app? I figured surely our “digital assistant“ could handle that, but apparently not. I’m not even talking about some 3rd party VPN app, I mean the built-in VPN in iOS. It seems especially silly when you consider I can ask...

    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...

    Siri: Reminders vs. third-party to-do apps

    I currently juggle two reminders apps and I'm having a bit of trouble getting Siri to recognize which one I want to use when adding stuff via dictation. Wondering if anybody has any tips. I use Things for most stuff, but have a shared list in Reminders and will occasionally add a location-aware...

    HomePods with v17 still no contextual support

    iOS17 promised “Google” type contextual support for Siri. Not that I’ve seen. Tested tonight. Asked my HomePod to… “Siri, turn off kitchen lights and turn on bedroom light.” She gave me the same answer as always. “Can’t. Setup a theme or shortcut instead.” Meanwhile I ask Google the same thing...

    S9 / Ultra 2 - Workout status via Siri?

    Does anyone know if the new S9 or Ultra 2 watches add the capability to ask for workout updates via Siri? For example if I'm currently doing a Walking or Running workout, can I ask Siri (via my paired AirPods, etc.) how far I've walked, what my pace is, etc? This is one of the biggest things...

    Universal “Hey Siri, play this album” no longer works?

    For years, I’ve used this command to play the entire album that has the currently playing song. For example, if I’m listening to a playlist or “radio” and a song comes on and I want to listen to the full album that the song is on, I used to just say “Play this album” This no longer works. It...

    Siri No Longer Announcing Notifications Through Air Pods

    This on an iPhone 14 Pro running iOS 16.6. Since I got this phone I've had it set up so that Siri announces Notifications via Air Pods if I'm listening to Music. This has always worked. Until this week. Siri no longer announces any Notifcations. I used to get Notifications from Home...

    Hi, I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max running iOS 16.6. The start screen recording function using Siri is not working. Every time I ask Siri, I get this response "Sorry, I cant help you with that here". Occasionally it will search the web. When the feature was first released, I tired it and it...

However, when im walking through my house and utilize the HomePod minis I have set up (3 in a way where I can...

    Hey Siri, what's the weather like today?

    Despite its many flaws, Siri used to be my go to for weather. While dressing, I would ask, "what's the weather like today" and would get a full forecast: "Currently, it is 50 degrees. Today will be cloudy in the morning with a chance of rain. The afternoon will be sunny with a high of 76...

    Apple Watch Siri Consistently Stops Working On First Try

    I have an Apple Watch SE A2351 with WatchOS 9.4. For the last month or so (maybe ever since upgrading to 9.4), Siri very consistently stops responding to commands on the first try. Siri always says it’s having trouble understanding and to try again. I repeat the exact same command in the exact...

    Siri gets fixated on the word car. Any other weird behavior you've seen?

    I had a weird experience with Siri yesterday. I wanted to remember to plug my Tesla in when I got back from running some errands. So I say, "Hey Siri, remind me to plug in my car when I get home." Easy, right? 'Ok, I will remind you to "plug in your car" when you get in the car.' I tried seven...
