  1. Ob ich heute Abend wohl noch weiß was ich wollte, wenn Siri mich an die Adresse der Apple Firmenzentrale erinnert? Ich denke nicht. #SiriFail #onlyApple

  2. Another day, another random "because" capitalized by

  3. This specific Siri command issue has been problematic since I got the OG HomePod. So, it’s been years.

    I’ve reported feedback on it. It’s largely consistent, but there have been short stretches of time where it felt more reliable.

    I truly hope this situation gets better sometime.

  4. In comparison, my regular (old) HomePod and newer HomePod mini speakers have never done that (0% hit rate) and even “Play NPR News WHYY Philadelphia” — which is what Siri says it is playing when it gets it correct — is unreliable. It’s probably 60-70% hit rate. The failures almost always playing something I have never heard of and/or wouldn’t normally listen to.

  5. I enabled Sonos Voice Control on a Sonos One speaker to try it out, compared to Siri on my HomePods.

    It unfailing plays the correct radio station stream when I ask it to “Play WHYY.”

  6. I can never remember that stupid little poem, but this isn’t what I asked. Also, it’s the wrong year. Not that it matters for June. #SiriFail

  7. Me to Siri: “Please set a warm tone with the master bedroom lights.”

    Siri: “For how long?”

    Me: “…for the rest of the evening.”

    Siri: “Now playing jazz.”

    Me: “What?? No!”

  8. In a long list of fails, “Hey Siri, how do you spell twelfth?”

    ‘12th…One, two, T, H. 12th.’

    :blobcatno:

  9. I feel like I complain too much about how bad Siri has become - but come on. (No, I didn't want Purple "reign")

  10. Me: Hey Siri, good morning
    Siri: Setting the scene… Some devices didn’t respond. You can ask me which ones.
    Me: Which ones?
    [crickets]
    Me: Hey Siri, which ones?
    Siri: I’m sorry, I can’t do that.
    Me: Hey Siri, which devices didn’t respond?
    Siri: I’m sorry, I can’t do that.
    Me: *sigh*

    🤦‍♀️

  11. Me: Hey Siri, what’s the charge level of my Apple Watch
    [hopes she can do that]
    Siri: My volume is at 49%

    Me: [repeats the request]
    Siri says the exact same thing

    At least she was consistent 😂
