Hi richard, To be honest, I have not reported to Apple Accessibility. I don’t see it as an accessibility problem. It’s a Siri problem having nothing at all to do with voiceover. So I’m not sure what good it does to report this to Apple accessibility. I have reported more general things in the past, and gotten a response that it’s not appropriate to report this here. I can’t remember what it was, but that’s why I never report to them unless it’s specifically can be tied to something having to do with voiceover. Mary
