Yeah, I agree. That's probably unfortunately what I'm going to wind up doing, for the time being. Either that or just leave, as Mike said, the others unplugged.
Again, I appreciate everyone like you who answered my thread, and took me seriously. Have a blessed day, yall.

This is exactly what I initially was trying my darndest to explain. Yes. That is precisely what is occuring. All the devices are getting activated at the same time. this is why I was wanting people's thoughts, as you gave, of a good solution. I think writing Apple about this is in order... don't you? I mean, surely I cannot be the only consumer out there who has multiple devices in the same room.

Unfortunately, I think the only answer would be to turn off all but the device you wanted to must use and then that one would only work. I know this is obvious but perhaps if you disguised you voice and trained with each disguise it might work with all of them on.

I however have been doing some kind a random thinking this morning. You see? That's what happens when I'm real tired, and need sleep... or... coffee. LOL! Anyway, here's my point. I have several I O S devices ranging from an IPhone 5S all the way up to an IPhone 6S, as well as an IPad Air first gen. Call me weird, as I know some of you will, but I do like using "Hey Siri." So, what happens, if multiple devices are in the same room, and you say, "Hey Siri!" Will all of 'em go nuts on me? That could get really scarey! LOL! In all Seriousness though, is there a way to tell I O S which device should take precedents over another? I'm thinking this may be a good one for http://www.apple.com/feedback I'm thinking something like an ability within the Siri settings to actually specify what key word needs to be said. Whether that be a customized typed key phraise, or a list of a couple predefined choices. This way, I could set one device to one trigger, and the others to another. This way they'd not get themselves confused. What do you all think? Chris. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
