Re: Siri hack you've probably already worked out
Bill, The problem is that the Dexcom app hasn't been fully made accessible to work with IOS 16.6 yet. It is my understanding that it is still being tested to work with IOS 16.6. I'm just repeating what I was told when I called Dexcom before installing IOS 16.6. I chose not to update & I'm able to ask Siri for my glucose level.

Re: Siri hack you've probably already worked out
But, having to say 'please'(or an equivalent phrase) beforehand is akin to attributing human intelligence to Artificial Intelligence, further contributing to the fog of misunderstanding, confusion and fear that already surround the use of AI.
