All Devices Reminders, Siri and the use of ‘and’

[keironwaites]

I’ve found an issue with the latest iOS and my use of Siri and Reminders. I’m pretty sure that historically I could use ‘and’ in my sentence and add long reminders such as the one shown in my screenshot.

As you can see in the screenshot it’s now splitting my reminder on every use of ‘and’.

Is this annoying anyone else? Is there a workaround that would allow me to use sentences as I wish and have them added as a single item?

Thank you.

This was added as part of iOS13 and I actually love it. One thing I always disliked was that I couldn't add multiple items to a list with a single command. Great for adding grocery list type items ("Add to my grocery list eggs and bacon and bread").

Don’t say “and”.

Yes I believe I’ll have to train myself to do this.

I quite like the idea of saying ‘Verbatim’ (or something) at the beginning of my sentence and have Siri record everything as it has been said. (This is an idea I’ve had rather than any solution I have found).
