During regular season, I could ask Siri "What Major league baseball games will be played

post-season playoffs, and Siri says, "There are no MLB games today." I tried asking for 
post-season games instead, and Siri said that the Rangers won the World Series last year. Is anyone

Hi Kathy,

i just asked Siri as follows:
Siri: What major league baseball games are on today?
She answered properly giving all the games in proper time sequence and 
with the series as they stand: Royals lead Orioles 1-0 Tigers lead 
Astros 1-0 and so on.

Re: Don't Ask Siri about Post-season Major League Baseball

2024-10-02 Thread Chris Chaffin

Try saying... Any MLB Playoff games today?

I do get a list of games that way.  Or, you can ask about a particular team...
When do the Yankees play in the MLB playoffs?
When do the Phillies play in the MLB playoffs?

All of these questions give me answers.

Hope this helps.

I am having problems with Siri ever since I updated to iOS 18. I am

This is the issues I am having:
1, If I ask Siri to restart my device, she just says, sorry, I can not 
help you with that.
2, If I ask Siri to do any math, addition, multiplication, etc., I get 
the answer, but only printed on the screen, she does not speak the 
answer.
3, If I ask any question; like the weather, a date of a history event, 
famous persons birthday. Everything is always printed on the screen and 
never spoken.

4, The only thing Siri will speak is the time.

I have checked the general Siri settings as well as the Siri settings in 
accessibility.


For responses I have it set to prefer spoken responses.

I have tried doing a forced restart, and it maee no difference.

Even though every thing looks correct, I am not sure why Siri is acting 
the way it is. If anyone has any suggestions for me to try, please let 
me know.

RE: siri question

2024-09-22 Thread 'Richard Turner' via VIPhone
Siri is always listening for the word Siri or Hey Siri, depending on your 
setting.

If you want to turn that off, go to Settings, Siri, Talk to Siri and in there 
you can have Hey Siri and Siri, just Hey Siri, or Off.

When that is off, you will press the side button and hold it or hold the home 
button if you have a phone with one, and talk to Siri that way.

But even if I had to do that, it would have been worth it so Siri would work

Re: Problem con Siri

2024-09-17 Thread David Grossoehme
I have to agree on this facctor.  This is how these big corporations get 
off the hook, or they blame it on the internet service company.  That is 
where we as customers have to put our foot down and say, (no you haven't 
fixed the problem.)  If that was how it would go, none of our 
accessibility would exist today.

Re: Problem con Siri

2024-09-17 Thread David Grossoehme
Is the person's voice hard to understand at all.  When I had a bad cold 
this last year I noticed that it was much harder to make Siri understand 
me.  If they speak fast, then try slowing down their speech and see if 
that helps at all.  I haven't had any problem making calls in general.  
However, I've noticed you have to ask more than once for her to 
understand and answer your request.  I've noticed if the phone has been 
locked for a long time, it needs to be unlocked before she will 
respond.  Good luck.

RE: Problem con Siri

2024-09-16 Thread Carolyn Arnold
I don't know why the guy told me that. You do have high mountains there; I 
remember from maps when in school. We just have hills where we are. Lately, for 
convenience sake, I have had Siri make more calls than in the past.

Sorry Caroline, but what have hills and woods to do with asking Siri to start a 
call?
I start calls with Siri all the time and I live right next to an 8,500 foot 
mountain; it makes no difference if you ask Siri to start a call or if you 
start the call from your contact list or if you use the keypad to dial the 
number, as long as you have a good enough cell signal your call will go 
through. Of course mountains will effect the cellular coverage in your area 
depending on how many towers there are, here in Northern BC where I live you 
loose cell coverage as soon as you are 20 or 30 minutes outside of town, then 
you have a deadspot and drive into the coverage area of the next town and so on.

RE: Problem con Siri

2024-09-15 Thread Carolyn Arnold
Rena, I don't use Siri for calls a lot. However, when I first got an iPhone, I 
did, and in a down hill wooded area, simply could not get one done. So, the guy 
at Customer Service for Consumer Cellular told me that if I tried Siri, and a 
call would not go through, to make it myself, which I did, and it worked. 
However, that is no good answer in this case.

Hello,

 

Lately, Siri doesn’t understand when one ask her to make a call. I use this 
feature very seldom, but I have a sighted friend who needs to use Siri to make 
calls due to some health problem.

Does anyone know about any solution?

Re: Accessible Washer/Dryer - Siri

2024-08-23 Thread Jonathan Cohn
My LG Washer / Dryer can be controlled with a cell phone, but I haven’t spent 
the time to set it up yet.

The basic process for the dryer is:
1. Scan a QR code near the door with the LG app.
2. Switch iPhone to the WiFi network from the appliance 
3. Configure the home Wifi that the Dryer will use  in the LG app 
4. Switch your phone to the home WiFi 

At this point, my process failed and I haven’t tried again.

Re: How to add items to my grocery list with Siri?

2024-08-15 Thread Tom Rash
If you’re using the reminders app, when you add an item, it should 
automatically create a category.  After you dictate the item you want to add, 
then while the keyboard is open, you have to hit enter before the item you 
created is actually entered and categorized.

How to add items to my grocery list with Siri?

2024-08-13 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,

I created a grocery list using Siri. I also created category, like dairy,
bakery, deli. So my question is what do I tell Siri when I want to add an
item say to the bakery category? I have tried many ways but have not been
able to get Siri to add it to the correct category. It always put it the
category called other. Any ideas on this issue.

RE: Siri Interrupting Herself

2024-08-09 Thread 'Richard Turner' via VIPhone
Siri interrupts itself on my 13 pro, which is older than the SE 3.
I did the test with asking it, "what is the mlb schedule today."
It got through part of the first game and then interrupted itself.
I repeated the question and it got through the first 5 games and then asked if 
I wanted to hear the next 5, etc.

Hello, this is not a dictation accuracy problem, but rather, Siri stumbling

It happens quite frequently with IOS 17.6 and iPhone 14 Pro.

Re: Siri Interrupting Herself

2024-08-09 Thread Chuck Adkins
Yes, have same problem myself. Also have issue when I try to ask her what the MLB schedule is for today, she just starts listening again or just stops altogether. It seems to help if I turn my volume down very low because it seems she's not hearing herself. That's what works for me with my 15 pro. Doesn't work all the times but seems to be a bit more consistent. Hope that helps. Siri seems to have quite a few minor annoying things like that that never seems to get fixed, so I just deal with it.

Re: Dictating to Siri?

2024-08-08 Thread Peter Tesar
Try practicing by asking SIRI to translate only 1 number at a time and 
precede the sentence with valid words.


test numeral one, two, etc. If this doesn't work there is something wrong.


Then, try saying the word numeral followed by either:

fifty thousand three hundred  fifty two

or insert the "and"

fifty thousand three hundred and fifty two

Maybe slow your dictation to allow SIRI to figure it out.


I practice by asking SIRI to text my-name that I put in Contacts.

When she repeats the message you will know if the translation worked.

Punctuation marks and the word numeral should not be heard.

The message I received was this, please check the exact spelling:

Numeral 50325 numeral nine

In other words, both times the word "numeral" was written out in the 
message and in addition to that the "9" was written out as the word 
"nine".


Let's hope Siri will finally grow up and get a lot smarter when Apple

SIRI is not always translating correctly.

Maybe it's the voice. Maybe the dictate speed.

SIRI seems to be reliable when translating these words:

  comma, full stop, ellipsis , quote and end quote and explanation

The question mark is not always translated to the correct

RE: Dictating to Siri?

2024-08-08 Thread 'Richard Turner' via VIPhone
My experience is the exact opposite.

I seldom have dictation issues and the only time I have issues with it opening 
an app is if there is a second app with a similar name and I’m not speaking 
clearly.

As far as I am concerned, Siri never did grow up. It reminds me of the mentally 
handicapped guy I went to school with. When I dictate stuff to Siri, it always 
messes up. When I ask Siri to open apps, it’s coming back saying I didn’t get 
that. Could you try again. Siri needed to have gotten it right the first time 
as a 15 years ago. I feel very strongly about what I just said. If you can’t 
get it right the first time, it won’t get it right at all.

RE: Dictating to Siri?

2024-08-07 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I agree that Siri is very stupid when it comes to dictation. I read before on 
Applevis and even on Apple's own support pages how you are supposed to say 
"Caps" if you want to start a word with a capital letter or how you can say 
"all caps" and all that, this has never worked for me. Similarly I wish there 
was a reliable way to tell Siri if you wanted a particular number value written 
out or as a digit, e.g. "Five" vs. "5", but if there is I have yet to find it 
after 13 years of using Siri.
In this example I don't think there is any way to do this, I have tried saying 
the 5-digit number followed by "space" and "9" and what I get is the number 
followed by the word "space" and the word "nine". I checked again online and 
read you should say "spacebar" instead of "space", but when I did this it 
inserted two words "space bar". I also tried "blank" and "blank space", but 
each time it simply writes out those words.
I think figuring out how to set up a shortcut for this is probably the way to 
go. Alternatively, put the transit phone number in the Favourites or Pin the 
conversation to the top of your Messages list and then either type in the 
number  or you could dictate it including the "9" because if you dictate a 
longer number it will typically get written as a number. Then you would just 
have to go back to the 9 and manually insert a space.
You could also set up keyboard shortcuts for your most used bus stops and 
routes, in your example you have 50325 9
You could create a keyboard shortcut called "hbs" for "home bus stop", then 
enter 50325 9 as the text.
When it comes to keyboard shortcuts you want to make sure you choose an 
abbreviation you can type easily yet it should be unique, i.e. you wouldn't 
want to use "home" because you don't want the number sequence to appear each 
time you type the word home.
I have keyboard shortcuts set up for my email addresses, e.g. I use "eeb" for 
my business email address and "eeo" for my outlook.com email address, "eeg" is 
for my gmail address. Note it's a double e since I at least can't think of any 
words which start that way. If I type "eeo" followed by the spacebar or enter, 
it expands to siegh...@outlook.com<mailto:siegh...@outlook.com>

Re: Dictating to Siri?

2024-08-07 Thread Peter Tesar
Out in the internet, there is a list of SIRI punctuation words that SIRI 
will translate.


I have used:

hae SIRI numeral numerical phrase


You can try hae SIRI

numeral 50325 numeral 9


SIRI is not always translating correctly.

Maybe it's the voice. Maybe the dictate speed.


SIRI seems to be reliable when translating these words:

  comma, full stop, ellipsis , quote and end quote and explanation mark.

The question mark is not always translated to the correct punctuation mark.

No need to ask Siri for help

Apple’s iOS 18 update includes a new accessibility feature that’s perfect for 
anyone who wants easier access to their saved shortcuts. Called Vocal 
Shortcuts, it lets you set a custom word that, when spoken, will launch a 
specified shortcut. It’s perfect for power users and people with accessibility 
needs alike.

Apple first announced the feature back in May 2024. In a press release, the 
company said: “With Vocal Shortcuts, iPhone and iPad users can assign custom 
utterances that Siri can understand to launch shortcuts and complete complex 
tasks.” The company didn’t reveal anything else about the feature at the time, 
but now that iOS 18 is available as a developer beta, we can get a better idea 
of how it works.

For instance, you might want to launch a specific app simply by saying its 
name. Or you could use a more precise phrase (like “edit a photo”) to launch a 
set of actions that you’ve previously saved as a shortcut.

At the WWDC 2024 where Apple unveiled iOS 18, a lot of attention was spent on 
how Siri was getting a major revamp thanks to artificial intelligence. The 
company never mentioned Vocal Shortcuts, but it could turn out to be one of the 
best changes coming to Siri for a wide range of people.

Siri finds its voice

If this feature sounds strangely familiar to you, you’re not far off the mark. 
Before iOS 18, you were able to launch shortcuts using your voice, but this 
process involved more steps. You would have to first invoke Siri, then say the 
name of the shortcut you wanted to run. If your device was locked, Siri would 
ask you to unlock it first before the shortcut could be launched.

Now, none of that applies. You don’t need to say “Siri” or “Hey Siri” to use 
Vocal Shortcuts. As well as that, you can say a custom phrase instead of being 
limited to the name of the shortcut, while it even works when your device is 
locked (provided your shortcut doesn’t require your device to be unlocked, such 
as opening an app).

That makes it far more convenient to control your Apple product using just your 
voice. Whether you want a way to launch a shortcut when your iPhone is on the 
other side of the room, or you have accessibility needs that make using your 
voice the best way to manage an iPhone, iPad or Mac, Vocal Shortcuts will 
likely be a welcome addition to your device, especially in combination with the 
other accessibility tools coming in iOS 18.

Together with the wide-ranging AI features coming in iOS 18, it looks like Siri 
might finally be getting the overhaul it’s desperately needed for years. It’ll 
be fascinating to see if it’s enough to catch up with Apple’s rivals.

2024-06-16 Thread Richard Turner
The article stated you did not have to use Siri, but since I’m not testing the 
beta and this is a speculative article, it could end up being so, but Voice 
control in general is separate from Siri.  In fact, you don’t even have to have 
VoiceOver on to use Voice Control.  It is directed at people who cannot use the 
normal gestures on the screen nor a keyboard.

 

So, time will tell.

This new iOS 18 voice-control feature could be even more useful than the new Siri from Tech Radar

This new iOS 18 voice-control feature could be even more useful than the new
Siri

Tech Radar TechRadar the technology experts

By Alex Blake

published 14 June 2024

 

No need to ask Siri for help

 

Apple's iOS 18 update includes a new accessibility feature that's perfect
for anyone who wants easier access to their saved shortcuts. Called Vocal
Shortcuts, it lets you set a custom word that, when spoken, will launch a
specified shortcut. It's perfect for power users and people with
accessibility needs alike.

 

Apple first announced the feature back in May 2024. In a press release, the
company said: "With Vocal Shortcuts, iPhone and iPad users can assign custom
utterances that Siri can understand to launch shortcuts and complete complex
tasks." The company didn't reveal anything else about the feature at the
time, but now that iOS 18 is available as a developer beta, we can get a
better idea of how it works.

 

For instance, you might want to launch a specific app simply by saying its
name. Or you could use a more precise phrase (like "edit a photo") to launch
a set of actions that you've previously saved as a shortcut.

 

At the WWDC 2024 where Apple unveiled iOS 18, a lot of attention was spent
on how Siri was getting a major revamp thanks to artificial intelligence.
The company never mentioned Vocal Shortcuts, but it could turn out to be one
of the best changes coming to Siri for a wide range of people.

 

Siri finds its voice

 

If this feature sounds strangely familiar to you, you're not far off the
mark. Before iOS 18, you were able to launch shortcuts using your voice, but
this process involved more steps. You would have to first invoke Siri, then
say the name of the shortcut you wanted to run. If your device was locked,
Siri would ask you to unlock it first before the shortcut could be launched.

 

Now, none of that applies. You don't need to say "Siri" or "Hey Siri" to use
Vocal Shortcuts. As well as that, you can say a custom phrase instead of
being limited to the name of the shortcut, while it even works when your
device is locked (provided your shortcut doesn't require your device to be
unlocked, such as opening an app).

 

That makes it far more convenient to control your Apple product using just
your voice. Whether you want a way to launch a shortcut when your iPhone is
on the other side of the room, or you have accessibility needs that make
using your voice the best way to manage an iPhone, iPad or Mac, Vocal
Shortcuts will likely be a welcome addition to your device, especially in
combination with the other accessibility tools coming in iOS 18.

 

Together with the wide-ranging AI features coming in iOS 18, it looks like
Siri might finally be getting the overhaul it's desperately needed for
years. It'll be fascinating to see if it's enough to catch up with Apple's
rivals.

RE: IOS 17.5.1 and SIRI

2024-05-21 Thread Richard Turner
I just updated to 7.5.1 on my 13 pro. It  took about 12 minutes from start to 
finish.

A couple quick Siri tests seemed to work as always.

 

I don’t use Siri a ton, and will pay attention as I do, but initially no issues.

Re: Dictation and Siri acting weird on my IPhone 14 which I've rebooted

2024-04-26 Thread Chela Robles
When I go to the status bar running IOS 17.4.1 I see microphone in use, then I 
tap it and it displays siri and dictation are in use but there is no way to 
clear it. Unless I manually power off the device in settings general shut down.

Are you using Wi-Fi if so try turning that off and then back on again maybe 
it's the Internet connection you could also try turning Siri off and then back 
on again and you might be able to do the same thing with with dictation in 
settings

Dictation and Siri acting weird on my IPhone 14 which I've rebooted

2024-04-26 Thread Chela Robles
Whenever I try to use dictation from the keyboard that is onscreen, for some 
reason, it's not working properly as it should. Also, Siri is acting up, just 
hangs when I press the power button but I will try "hey" command next if that 
solves my issue, but am generally wondering if Apple has an outage of some sort 
like they did in the past in regards to dictation and siri? I did restart my 
phone and still have the same problem. Using iphone 14. I can't even summon 
apps to be launched with siri.  Any thoughts?

Re: Ecobee3 light and Siri not connecting

2024-04-17 Thread Larry Smith
Mary, I do not have the ecobee light. However, I do have the ecobee premium 
plus. The only thing I can think of is you may not be connected to WiFi. 
Unfortunately, This cannot be done using the app. You have to connect to WiFi 
through the settings on the thermostat. I have found no way to do this without 
sighted assistance.

Congratulations Mary. You will be happy with your EcoBee3 light. Once you 
become familiar with the layout of the Ecobee app structure, you will be able 
to setup the heating and cooling temperatures for everyday of the week and 
sleeping time temperature and day time as well. i think it was a stroke of luck 
that I was able to do mine without sighted help.Sent from my iPhone

Re: Ecobee3 light and Siri not connecting

2024-04-10 Thread Cris Ali
Mary,
You must add your ecobee3 light to your Apple HomeKit for SIRI to recognize it. 
When I installed my Ecobee3 light thermostat i had to go to my account in the 
EcoBee App and select add to my home app. When I did that, the home app opened 
and asked me to scan the QR Code on the ecobee thermostat screen. I directed my 
phone camera towards the thermostat’s screen and slowly moved the phone around 
untill it saw the QR Code. After that, the home app will ask you to name this 
accessory and choose which room. Just follow the steps and hit done when 
finished.

Re: Does anyone know how to stop Siri / Safari from opening a default app in iOS?

Subject: Does anyone know how to stop Siri / Safari from opening a default app 
in iOS?

Hello Everyone,

I've been fighting a terrible, terrible cold for the last week and, as a
result, have not been able to post some articles to the list.  I am just now
beginning to feel a tiny bit better and so wanted to use what little energy
I have to post a question to which I cannot find the answer:

Scenario:
1.
Ask Siri to perform a web search by saying something like, "Search the web
for 'What is Amazon Music Unlimited, single'."

2.
Siri will respond with something like, "OK, I found this on the web for
'What is Amazon Music Unlimited, single'.  Check it out."

3.
There will now be 3 items on the display.  If you select the first item,
which is usually the answer given by Amazon, instead of opening the answer
in Safari, the Amazon app will open, which has absolutely nothing to do with
your search query.

I find this maddening.  And now, even the Google app is doing the same
thing.  This is to say, instead of opening a web browser, it will launch the
Amazon app.

Does anyone know how to stop this behavior?

All replies greatly appreciated.

Mark

Amen. I'm getting frustrated with Siri. But understand this is coming from the 
silly woman who purchased an Apple Magic keyboard without knowing if it would 
"really" work with my iphone. It's just that I'm getting tired having to deal

The story is that with much more use of AI, Siri will improve in iOS 18. I'm 
sure it is a priority for them to improve it. It keeps getting worse for now.

No improvement at all, been messed up for a long time. You could call apple accesibility but others have and they are aware of it. I'm guessing its not to their financial advantage to fix it.

I wonder how accessible all three apps are going to be with screen reader users

Re: Siri is having issues

2024-02-10 Thread Chela Robles
I wonder how accessible all three apps are going to be with screen reader users like with NVDA and jaws for example, they’re probably testing it with narrator since it’s built-in with it regarding windows, but I could be very wrong in that regard just was wondering what are the links for all the User manuals for these three apps, TV, music and devices. I did see the one with the devices but what about the other two or is there a main link that could just grab all three manuals from? I’m just really curious I use Windows 11 on a Dell Inspiron, 15, 5510 laptop . I’m also using NVDA latest version and Jaws 2024 latest build. And I do occasionally use narrator, but my primary is jaws, even though I have the other third-party screen reader on their non-visual desktop access.Sent from my iPhoneOn Feb 10, 2024, at 10:35 AM, Richard Turner  wrote:I’m sure it will be temporary, and in fact, as of this minute, it is working fine again.It probably cleared up by the time I sent my message.My main point in sending that was to say, sometimes, Siri servers are acting up and you can try another service like Alexa or Google and know it is the service, not your wi-fi.Richard, USA“Grandma always told us, “Be careful when you pray for patience.

I’m sure it will be temporary, and in fact, as of this minute, it is working 
fine again.

It probably cleared up by the time I sent my message.

My main point in sending that was to say, sometimes, Siri servers are acting up 
and you can try another service like Alexa or Google and know it is the 
service, not your wi-fi.

Hi Donald,
I just googled for instructions, and this one seems to explain it well: 
https://www.wired.com/story/apple-new-password-manager-2fa-iphone-ipad/
I personally use 1Password, not the built-in Apple solution, but I think the 
features are pretty similar.
Hope this helps.

creating a siri shortcut for anyconnect vpn

2024-01-23 Thread Donald Raikes
Hi,

I have been learning a little about using and creating siri shortcuts
for my iPhone.
I want to setup a shortcut to connect cisco anyconnect vpn so I don't
have to go hunting for the anyconnect app and struggle with entering
my password each time.

I launch the shortcuts app, and in starters folder I create a new shortcut.
The first thing I do is to tap on "action Library" and in the edit
field I enter "Anyconnect" and tap search.
I get no results back.
So I tried typing "Cisco" but still no results.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I double-checked and the app is installed and is called "AnyConnect".

RE: Asking Siri to restart this device

Maybe you are not holding the side button long enough.
You can also go to Settings > General > Shutdown (at the very bottom).

asking Siri to restart my phone is the only method that works on my iPhone 12 
pro these days . I used to be able to push the volume up, then volume down, and 
the side button. For some reason that’s not working, rigvolume up, then volume 
down, and the side button. For some reason that’s not working right now.
how can I fix that?

RE: Asking Siri to restart this device

2024-01-18 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Asking Siri to restart your phone is a soft reset. This is just a normal 
restart of a device, like hitting the restart button on Windows.

A hard reset forces a device to restart against it's will, such as when it's 
hung or frozen. This is equivalent to holding down the power button on a PC 
until it restarts.

A factory reset wipes your phone clean and restores it to the way it was when 
it was shipped, although I think it does end up with the latest IOS.
