    All Devices Can't change Siri voice

    I'm running PB1, which has been surprisingly stable so far. I wanted to see if the new smooth Siri voice was only for the American Female accent, but when I went to change my Siri voice I noticed two things: first, there are no Male and Female options, just the regional accents (American...

    Apple TV Recognizes Pilot's Alphabet

    This may be old news, but I just discovered the other day that you can use the pilot's alphabet when dictating text to the Apple TV. While the device has been pretty good at hearing letter names in the past for me, it's recognition of the pilot alphabet was spot on the first time I used it...

    iPhone Siri shortcuts periodically stop working until I toggle Siri off and on

    Yesterday Siri Shortcuts stopped working on my iPhone 7 Plus (ios 12.1.3). Siri would pause for a bit and then complain something went wrong. I tried rebooting my iPhone, but that didn't help. I tested my iPad and that worked, so I disabled both Hey Siri and Press Home for Siri in settings...

    HomePod Wind - Siri cracks me up

    "Hey, Siri, what's the wind?" I ask my HomePod. "No, it doesn't seem very windy right now; only about 15 miles an hour." The actual wind is 15 MPH, with gusts up to 28. The wind chill is -10. I wonder what Siri would say in a hurricane . . .

    HomePod Alexa vs Siri (Alexa bad understanding?)

    Hi guys, I’ve been using Siri for years. Recently I got a Sonos Beam which has Alexa built in, and I started using it for controlling my TV, my Roomba, thermostat, music, setting timers etc. etc. I always heard that Siri were miles behind Alexa and the Google assistant. I can certainly see...

    Siri & Search

    Can somebody please explain to me what “Siri & Search” does? And what does “Suggestions in Search” do?? And what is “Suggestions in Look Up?” What if I want to disable these features for each app? Do I have to adjust my Siri Settings for every app?

    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...

    Autocorrect in dictation getting worse?

    I’ve been noticing that after I dictate with Siri, the autocorrect consistently changes the text in ways that introduce new errors. One change that is driving me nuts is changing “-“ to “Dash.” Even after correcting it many times, it seems that Siri never learns the correct way. Overall, the...
