Hi, I have the same problems. I find that Siri works much better if I turn VO off. I get better and more consistent feedback that way. No, I shouldn't have to do that but it's a work around until they fix it. Thanks, Scott Duck

I also swipe the screen and get examples of what I can tell siri to do, which I don't care about. lol I am in Minnesota so it isn't exclusive to Canada. I encounter this other times I try to access Siri as well. It isn't only with the timer. It is like sometimes it gets hung up, or is just plain slow. Sometimes I will press the home button and try it again, and I get a response on the second try. I have also noticed that siri is tempermental about reading info that I ask. I could look up something, it says I found an article on wikipedia, do you wish me to read it? I say yes and then... nothing. I am using a 4s and maybe that accounts for some of my problems. How does siri work for 5s users?

I was just here a scant few hours ago. I'm in Ontario, Sieghard, and am relieved that the siri problems seem to be experienced by several people. I hope you're right and that it's a simple matter of server overload. I haven't yet used the dictation feature with ios7, but I wouldn't be surprised if I found it to be sluggish as well. Thanks for all the responses!
