When it works, it's great, but when it tells me such and such is not in my
contacts and I know it is, I want to tell my little Siri man where he can
go. But lol, because I'm not one to stay mad long, I end up laughing. I
figure I need to do something constructive about the problem like making
Apple aware of this.

Even though I’m a big time Apple fanboy, I will readily admit that Google's
OK google feature eats Siri's lunch and probably has done so for a while
now. I don't even bother asking Siri to initiate a call to any of my
contacts as I find the process to be tedious and prolonged.

I find that Siri almost always asks me to confirm the person I want to
call, even if it's my wife for instance, and Siri knows she's my wife so
I have no idea why.

I find this quite interesting since for a while SIRI did the same thing
for our local taxi company even though I have them in my contacts as well.
Then for a while it called them again just fine using my contact and now
again it goes back to looking it up online. Also, right now SIRI is often
asking me again if the person I told SIRI to call was the one I wanted to
call and I have to confirm first. It seems SIRI is rather inconsistent at
time or maybe Appleis just fooling around with different settings and ways
for SIRI to do things. I think that SIRI should always first check ones
contacts and use that. I also had it where I asked SIRI to call "BV Taxi"
our local taxi company, and it said "I don't have a number for BV Taxi".
When I told SIRI to "Show me BV Taxi" it showed me the contacts entry with
phone number and I know for sure that a number is there in the proper
dialing format. Don't think there is anything much y ou can do about it
except maybe give feedback to Apple and suggest they should just get their
act together and make SIRI work a bit better.

Subject: SIRI asking too many questions when calling with an iPhone
Wondering if anyone has a solution
Request to SIRI: "Call Caseno Taxi"
Response: "I found a Caseno Taxi on Nova Lee Drive - is that the one you
want?"
I have this company in my contacts and as a favourite. When calling from
my Apple watch under friends it does what I ask
I find this process to be very frustrating. I can understand this being
useful when wanting to call something or someone who is not in your
contacts Is there any way to change it so that it works like it did under
iOS 7.
I find it most inefficient. Why didn't they just leave well enough alone.
Thanks in advance.
Barry
