Hello,
I’VE BEEN USING ios 8.1.2 FOR A WEEK NOW AND NOTICED Siri and VO are playing nice with each other.
Previously, Siri would get cut off or truncated. I would have to turn off VO in order to work with Siri. After the update, the problem Seemed to have gone away. Anyone else noticed this?
I am using IOS 8.1.2 on an iPhone 6.
Siri will no longer play voicemail when asked.
Anybody else have this issue?
I've been reading on a lot of mainstream technology blogs, websites etc that Siri now vibrates when activated, as opposed to the double-beep we've all come to know and, occasionally, love, depending on how good Siri is to us. When experimenting with this, I discovered that when VoiceOver is enabled, the double-beep sounds are still there as usual. I tried disabling VoiceOver and indeed a vibration was all there was to announce Siri's activation.
I used to have a second-gen iPhone SE. It worked great, except it had developed one very annoying problem. When I asked SIRI, “What’s the weather?” it would emit the thinking tone for a few seconds, and then respond “I’m having trouble with the connection. Please try again later.” I would immediately ask for the weather again, and SIRI would immediately give me the weather. This problem happened while connected to wifi with full signal strength. It was always the weather, and it was always able to provide the weather on the second try.
Hello all:
I read on Mac Roomers, that from Ios16, siri can anounce notifications just on my Iphone and no need to have airbods or something,
so i enable this, and choose apps that siri will anounce notifications from, but nothing happened.
do i still need ot do extra thing? and is it working at your side?
Hi all. I went to just now select Julie, from my contacts. As normal, I started typing "J.U," to see which one i wanted. I found someone else named, Justin, email and phone number. I clicked on each's "More Info", I was unable to get rid of it. Can anyone help? I went into my contacts, thinking i did something, nope. Hope someone can help, it's making me crazy. Then again, I am anyway. ;)
Hi, when I set my siri voice to siri male, it stays on for a bit and then goes back to the siri female voice. This is the british voices.
I read where someone asked Siri to play the number1 song on their birthday, well I tried it and I'll be darned she did! Is this something new with the apple music feature?
I just spotted that Siri has regained the ability to send email. This capability vanished with the introduction of iOS 15 and also vanished from earlier versions of iOS. I have been able to test Siri's email feature on iOS and iPadOS 15.1 and it also works on iOS 15.0.2. I guess it will also have returned to iOS 14, but I can't test that. I had written a Siri Shortcut as a stop gap but it was beset by some Shortcuts bugs. It's really good that Apple listened and acted on this one.
Hi.
When using Siri to send a text or to call a contact, I seem to get stuck in a loop sometimes. So, I might say, "Call John" and Siri responds with, "John Tel 1 or email?2 Responding with "Tel 1" or "Home" or "Mobile" still results in the same Siri response. This however, does not happen if I already have a text from John in my inbox, in which case it sets up the text reply without issue.
Any pointers as to why this happens?
Thanks,
Matt
How do you request an Uber using Serie? My wife has tried several times but after it asks wha type of ride that she wants, it forces her to go to the Uber AP. It will not complete the transaction.
For example, when she says that she would like a rideto a location, Serie asks her which service she wants, then dumps her into the AP to set it up herself. She only has the use of one hand, so actually negotiating the AP is not an option at this time. For now, I am setting up her rides, but she wants to do it on her own.
Any ideas?
hi all, to be honist with you all i’m finding the dictation features of siri really really bad.
please can any one reccomend an ulternitive to siri that can be used for dictation of text?
your help with this question would be most welcome, kind regards trey.
So when invoking siri via the side button or "hey Siri", siri sometimes dings once before it responds.
There are moments where it will just ding once and won't respond with anything. Does anyone know how one might go about fixing this and what could be causing it? This is on the iPhone X
Hello,
After a long time I finally managed to isolate the cases when Siri and other voice interaction apps stop working. It seems to happen when the device is connected to a 5 GHZ wi-fi network.
It happened on mine, at least; when I connected my iPhone 6 plus or my mother's 4s to the airport express, there was no way to talk to siri or to dictate text or to leave a voice iMessage, whatsapp voice notes, facebook messenger and so on.
Thanks to a close friend we performed several tests and finally found a temporary work around.
I'm currently on an iPhone 11 running iOS 14.2. What I thought was a server-side error turns out to be local. If I call up Siri with my voice, everything works as expected. Siri gives voice feedback, and all is well. If I call her up by long pressing the side button, there is no voice feedback at all. Similarly, if I activate the listen button after bringing up Siri, she won't reply with her voice. She functions properly, but she simply doesn't talk. It doesn't matter how I first called her up.
I updated to IOS 10.02 last week and have had some issues. So, yesterday I backed up my phone and did a factory restore on it. Once it had been wiped, i then restored the previous backup to it but since then, i can only get the siri female UK voice in the standard form. Any clues?
I'm introducing someone with an iPhone 6 to VoiceOver and to Siri. We've set up the triple-click Home shortcut to turn VoiceOver on and off. I also wanted her to be able to use Siri to turn VoiceOver on and off for times when she found it difficult to perform the triple click of the Home button. But when we instruct Siri to turn VoiceOver on or off, Siri reports that it has turned VoiceOver on or off, but hasn't actually done the job. The status of VoiceOver remains unchanged.
hey guys
For those updating to 14.1, you might notice a behavior where you no longer get siri feedback after giving her a command Heres how to fix it
Go to siri settings and siri responses. By default when updating this gets set to when silent mode is off. Simply change this to always and you will have feedback again
I'm using an iphone 8. I hope this helps someone that experienced this and wondered what was going on
