Siri: You can translate in Translate to German and many other languages. Thank’s for nothing… Siri unwilling to translate. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_reminder/ Tue, 27 Jun 2023 16:09:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_reminder/ Hey Siri, Remind Me to… Hey Siri, remind me to finish the exam and announcement when I get to work Siri: OK, Intercom to all I’ve created literally thousands of reminders with Siri. Siri correctly transcribed my instructions. For no apparent reason Siri utterly fails to set a reminder and sends my query to all the people in my home. Intercom and remind me don’t even sound vaguely similar (neither in German nor in English). https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_turn_off_lights_2/ Wed, 10 May 2023 13:39:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_turn_off_lights_2/ Hey Siri, Hallway Light Off Siri: Please confirm: you want to turn off this device? Fool me once… Again: this used to work flawlessly for years. 🤷 Siri forgot how to turn off my hallway lights. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_turn_off_lights_1/ Thu, 04 May 2023 21:03:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_turn_off_lights_1/ Hey Siri, Turn off the Bedroom Light Siri: Please confirm: you want to turn off this device? You’d be surprised to learn that confirming then turns off the iPhone 🤦‍♂️ Why Siri? This used to work for the last 4 years 🤦‍♂️ Siri forgot how to turn off my bedroom lights. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_tokyo/ Tue, 11 Apr 2023 10:01:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_tokyo/ Hey Siri, What’s the Weather Like in Tokyo? Siri: Here is the weather for Tokio, United States. Obviously, people refer to Tokio, North Dakota (or Tokio, Texas) when they say “Tokyo.” (Even most of the US doesn’t refer to any of those two 🤷). How is this still a problem? Siri giving irrelevant results. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_166_miles/ Tue, 07 Feb 2023 12:00:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_166_miles/ Hey Siri, How Much is 166 Miles? Siri: Nothing with the title „“miles” is planned between January 1, 166, and December 31, 166. Siri forgot how to convert units. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_calculator/ Tue, 24 Jan 2023 17:19:00 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_calculator/ Hey Siri, What is 0.99 + 2.19… Hey Siri, what is 0.99 + 2.19 + 0.89 + 5.98 + 2.29? Siri: I found 36 calls. After all these years, Siri always surprises me with some random answers. Siri fails to do basic calculations. https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_calendar_week/ Sat, 27 Aug 2022 22:19:37 +0100 https://s1999u2.github.io/annoyances/siri_calendar_week/ Hey Siri, When is Calendar Week 26 2023? Siri: It is Saturday, August 27, 2022. Okay 🙄 Siri forgot how to tell calendar weeks.
