Similarly, I am on an iPhone 6 and am wondering if there is anything more to the Spotlight screen to the left of the home screen?
I have suggested contacts/apps. Then a card with links to things nearby in Maps. Then the rest is news stories.
I expected weather or traffic or other cards to pop up there? I had a UPS shipping notification in my inbox, directly from UPS. I guess I expected more proactive stuff like that to come up. I was on Android for a few months and Google Now was scary it was so good.
Even after a few days, I just don't see Siri learning anything about me. I'm at home, on my home wifi, and it is always showing me the option to look for nearby gas stations and restaurants... As if I was out and about or something!
