I don't want Siri to repeat the message when someone is giving it a reaction

[carlsson]

I have turned on that Siri reads messages as they come. It's quite convenient, even if I hate her voice (it's really not very good in Swedish).

However, when someone reacts to a message that I have sent, she insists on reading up my entire message that I wrote! It's extremely annoying and unnecessary – I know what I wrote to that person a minute ago!?

Is there any way to turn this part of "Siri reading messages" off?

Example: I write: "Hey darling, I thought we should go to IKEA and look at that new sofa this weekend, would that be fine with you? ❤️?"

Ten seconds later Siri tells me: "MIRIAM GAVE A HEART TO YOUR MESSAGE HEY DARLING I THOUGHT WE SHOULD GO TO IKEA AND LOOK AT THAT NEW SOFA THIS WEEKEND WOULD THAT BE FINE WITH YOU QUESTION MARK HEART EMOJI AND AN EMOJI WITH A PARTY FACE"

Seriously (or maybe Siriously)? Why don't some people at Apple think? I understand that you want to hear your message repeated if a day has gone bye, or maybe a couple of hours. But a couple of seconds? Or minutes? You probably know what you wrote to that person 30 seconds ago, right?

However, I may have missed something. Please enlighten me!

You probably know what you wrote to that person 30 seconds ago, right?

Maybe, but the duration is subjective. Someone else may have written 15 messages in that period. Another person might have written a single message five minutes ago, and recalls in a moment’s notice. Apple could implement a time choice menu. However, as is, Apple’s decision to always provide context is far more ideal than assuming a duration.

Of course it's subjective. That's why I was looking for a preference to turn this off.

However, I bet there are 90% more people that would like to have a "Cheetah gave a a thumbs up to your recent message" than the current stupid and time-consuming solution.

Furthermore, you could also look at it the other way: If you want to know what message that was replied to, just look at your device.
