Thank you - got it now. I thought I'd followed the steps, but at one point my phone told me that it couldn't install the shortcut because it's from an untrusted source - but it seemed to skip past that when I clicked 'Add to Siri'. That was clearly the wrong thing to do. In their infinite wisdom Apple don't let you see the option to allow untrusted shortcuts until you first install and run a shortcut from their gallery. I'm slow to criticise Apple, but that's just dumb, sorry. So after allowing untrusted shortcuts, I was able to complete the installation as intended. It's working well now. Siri is struggling to understand me at the moment because a cold virus this week has robbed me of my voice! But I've managed to make it do a few things, and am looking forward to doing more when my voice returns. @Michael - a couple of times Siri has repeated the word 'Squeezebox' back to me, and she says it 'Squeezerbox'. Maybe she'll understand you better if you say that! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109784
