Mine says “your batteries are taking a while to respond.”

Yep, that’d work. I was just picking out the language used, it’s not the clearest way of asking for something. Whereas a clear question like my example or a clear demand like yours should work

Hey siri, turn on the flashlight. No manners or extra words.

Could be a cultural thing, I’ve never known anyone talk like that except for US tv series and movies. In the UK at least, talking like that would be seen as incredibly rude. You would however say “does anyone have a torch?” In a very demanding way which wouldn’t be seen as rude.

The “I need a flashlight” comes across as “I’m going to wait here until someone brings me a torch, whereas it’d be phrased as a question in the UK

Another vote for iMazing. Great app that keeps getting updated.

If you send a video to someone (4K video for example), it gets counted as storage used for messages.

Just today I asked Siri to open control centre.

“Hey siri”

“Yes?”

“Open control centre.”

“Sorry, I can’t find an app called control centre. Would you like to search for it on the AppStore?”

You can install assistant, and access it by saying “hey siri, hey Google” (or tapping the app icon) and then waiting for assistant to activate. It’s not ideal, but it does allow access to assistant.

Prior to iOS 15 it used to work, from watch to phone & vice versa, had a case opened with Apple care at the time , support agent did a diagnosis of the watch & phone only to come to the following conclusion “software glitch” which he later informed that would be taken care of on the next update ; we are at 16.1 now ; still waiting.

I really miss google assistant. I would love if Apple allowed third party assistants but I know that would never happen.

How can you have so much data in iMessage that the phone’s full though? Wtf?

Yes, but they're also not being deleted from the phone. I can't access or read them in the cloud. And yeah, it's weird of me, I know :)

How can you be running out of memory? Wtf?

Aren’t they being offloaded to iCloud?

One feature that I noticed is that Siri won’t work if you phrase things in a demanding way. “I need a flashlight” is unclear “Can you please turn on the flashlight” works

Siri is so dumb I feel bad for it

Which is ridiculous in its own way.

I have been following along with these Siri fails for a while, and always try the same commands on my iPhone. Could it be that American English is super buggy? Australian English works 100% of the time for me.

The only thing Siri can do right is setting the timer.

“Sorry, something went wrong”

I asked that on my phone and got “There are no accessories that support that” with a button to open the Home app. I suppose that makes sense but also can’t think of a homekit accessory that would need charging and do it in a way where youd have to ask Siri to find out if it is.

Add enable Water Lock in there.

Siri should just be abolished at this point. It’s gotten so bad that it has actually become a joke. The need to just get rid of it and come out with an Apple Assistant. New name so it won’t be associated with the dumpster fire that is Siri.

The lack of Siri integration with the basic measurements of Apple Watch/Fitness...
