Hi,
This isn't true 100% of the time. If I tell Siri "Tell Mary I will give
her
a call in an hour." At least for me, most of the time the message is
read
back. The times when it isn't, its because VO interrupts it for some
reason. In this case, I place my finger on the screen, and flick to the
edit field and VO reads the message. I find the error rate to be on par
with that found in IOS 6, Maybe a little bit better. But that isn't
were
Siri is really giving people a lot of headaches though. Its Siri
actually
processing your requests. This failure rate is way up in IOS 7. I
would
say its near the levels when it made its debut on the iPhone 4S.

For those of you using Siri and iOS 7, here are a few questions
specifically related to dictation.
I understand that Siri no longer reads back the text it has inserted
when
you do dictation. How then do you efficiently understand whether the
text
that has been inserted is correct? In iOS 6, this is easy because Siri
reads
it back.
I have found that the error rate is very good in iOS 6. So most of the
time, I don't have to hunt for anything to correct it, making the
read back
by far the most efficient means of knowing if my text is okay.
So, how is the error rate in iOS 7 compared with that of iOS 6? It
seems
that there are varying reports on this topic. I use dictation a lot,
such
as
in this message. And I will not upgrade if the ability to use it to
write
longer messages is seriously degraded. Yet one more reason to wait.

I have noticed the same thing. I live in North Carolina, USA, and
have thought that SIRI has taken a step back in response. I love the
automatically listening for a response after SIRI asks a question,
but the time between asking a question and getting a response is
sometimes large.
Also, when using dictate in messaging, I sometimes have to move focus
away from the message pane and back to get the text read.
Thanks for letting me know I'm not crazy, well, not this time, anyway!
LOL!

Subject: Siri's performance in IOS7
Hi all,
I'm wondering if Siri's performance differs between various
countries, or even within the same.
We have noted an increased speed and performance when it comes to
asking Siri a question but it seems that dictation has taken quite a
step backwards for myself and other friends with whom I've spoken here
in
the UK.
First, the time between dictating and text appearing at my end is
definitely much slower and is also less accurate. In addition I'm
sometimes not sure if dictated text has been processed because of the
lack of speech from Siri who doesn't read aloud text as processed or
even
say "Done".
Have you noticed these things, do you know why we should experience
these difficulties and do you agree that this should be reported to
Apple?
