    Other Auto-subscription to Apple Music Voice Preview - Siri rant

    As if asking Siri to play some music (locally available) and Siri saying “You need to subscribe to Apple Music first” wasn’t annoying enough, today when I asked Siri to play some music, it gave a lengthy reply which I couldn’t hear and played the song. Later when I checked, Siri auto-subscribed...

    Siri trying to be too friendly?

    So… This happened in my household today! This is one of the usual commands used. Typically to locate other family members’ phones. There are no shortcuts with this phrase. The phone is iPhone 12, running iOS 16.1 (20B82).

    HomePod Siri speaks to me in different languages when I ask to turn the lights on

    I have a full size HomePod in the living room. I mainly use it to turn the lights on and off along with playing music. A few days ago I was watching a video that included someone saying "Hey Siri". After that, I've found she speaks to me in a different language most of the time when I ask to...

    You’ll need to update your Apple Music subscription in order for me to do that for you.

    I know that Apple is trying to plug Apple Music, but lately it seems that every time I request Siri to play music that is stored locally on my iPhone, I get a stupid response (see subject). Is anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on how to disable Apple Music integration altogether? I don...

    Broken Siri...

    Seems like Siri is breaking overnight. Only fix I can do is to turn my phone off and on again. This will work, and then the next day it will be the same problem. Siri, would start, and disappear right away, or it will start, and then would say "something went wrong, try again later..." I'm on...

    HomePod Siri on HomePod Won’t stream Apple Music

    As of the morning of October 12, 2022, Siri on my HomePods, running OS 16.0, cannot find Apple Music artists, songs or Apple Music Radio. Nothing has changed with my Apple Music subscription. In fact, Siri on my iPhones works just fine with Apple Music. My HomePods respond by saying, “Just a...

    watchOS 9 Workout app's new Voice Feedback is bugged

    So watchOS 9 has this nifty new thing. Previously Siri would only read out loud your current lap time - to me as a runner in the metric world, this means a readout at every km. Siri tells me my pace (e.g. 6:52), and that's it. Now in watchOS 9 they apparently extended this to tell you your...

    Whisper to siri

    Why can’t we whisper to Siri? Siri has been improved in the years, but still no one thought about whispering to Siri as a feature. If you ask Siri something it should be the same volume as you.

    Siri totally F ed

    I've been having some problems with Siri. 1. "Finder hasn't added support for that with Siri" when you ask her for files 2. Either doing a Bing image search or just opening the Photos app when you ask her for Photos 3. Sometimes not responding at all. You click, say "Hey Siri", etc. Nothing...

    Weird Siri voice changes

    Has anyone had any issues with Siri in the recent 15.4 update. I have mine set to Irish Female (for my own reasons....) and most of the time she is the usual perky feedback. Occasionally though I will get feedback in a much more robotic, synthesized version of the voice. This has only recently...

    Do people use an Apple Watch 7 without Siri?

    Hello, Just looking for some very general advice on Apple Watch 7 as I have been thinking about getting one for a while. I have however tried to stay away from using Siri as I am an oldtimer and feel stupid speaking into a device ;) So I assume an Apple Watch without using Siri is generally...

    HomePod Siri shortcut for a radio station

Happy to change to something short, "play stupid radio" or anything like that. The problem is, that every time I create...

    iPhone 12 Pro SIRI voice recognition

    Hello, I switched to iphone back in 2020 with the 12pro. Before this I had been a long time android user going back to 2012 (before that I had a 3gs so I guess i'm back). I love my iphone and I am fully in the apple ecosystem now. There is just one thing I miss though and that's google's voice...
