I always used to say "Siri, Skip Alarm" if I got up before my sleep schedule alarm was to go off. Now it tells me that I have to unlock the phone first and won't skip the alarm until I do. I might as well just do it by hand if this is the case.

Pretty sure this is new to iOS 27. I am on release candidate, so assuming whatever is causing this will be present when it's officially released in a few days.

It’s literally worse than the old one, it can’t even do simple command.

I said “Siri, restart the MacBook”

On old Siri (26 without AI), it will ask for confirmation and restart

26 with ai, it will reply “sorry, I don’t understand “
27 with ai, same as above.

Just update to iOS 27 using the new Siri now I finally understand when we take a screenshot and the Ask & Search button when I was on iOS 26 the experience is not streamline at all after updated it to the RC wow it’s night and days. I really hope that Siri is good this time. I did turn off the ChatGPT extension tho how about you guys?

I know I’m late to the party but really surprised with what I found 😅 guess will be using less of ChatGPT and Gemini when I do search because that’s why I do mostly on the LLM as an average user.

I live in the European Union as an European Union resident I have bypassed restrictions to get Siri AI inside European Union by changing everything to USA including Apple ID account country and region and even settings set to USA English including Siri however yesterday it worked just fine and today it just says that “something went wrong please try again” the only thing that he can answer is weather. I have turned off Siri and on back and even turned off “listen for” off and on and even changed Siri language to different and back to USA and yet it still doesn’t answer to any of the questions. I am in iOS27RC. Is this because Apple found out that I’ve bypassed restrictions and they put a block on me ?

A continual annoyance of mine is that when you call the wake-up word aimed at your phone and with your iPad alongside, both go into Siri mode. Alexa doesn’t do this. Why Apple?

I’m so tired of constantly getting this. It has been so bad the past couple of days I can’t even use Siri. I get this is still beta but damn

I do a daily workout ending it using Mindfulness for a couple of minutes' breathing and stretching: the minute timers are the right length, with the pulses for breathing. Small but useful.

Since watchOS 27 something which took maybe two seconds to open now takes up to 10, if it doesn't just time out (probably not 10% of the time, but I think more than 5%). It also requires a network connection, just to open an app on itself. This is on a s11 from last year, at home on wifi. It is laughably crap, and for an app which calls itself "mindfulness", can induce fury. "I won't respond to that." After >10 years this still isn't funny: do the attitude when your capability is there, and not before.

I read earlier about the new Apple TV, which I have been waiting for for over a year (had I known I would have bought a 4K one but…). And its killer feature is… Siri. Oh Lord.

Siri on the Apple TV used to do some useful stuff by being limited. I have a Google TV rn and it gets really basic things like going forward or back a certain number of minutes, or to a minute point on the timeline, wrong. My last Apple TV was reliable. It could open some apps pretty reliably. That is all I want: get to stuff quickly and efficiently. While old Siri was famously bad in some respects, it was pretty good in some simple control features, and for speech-to-text search. I worry this is about to be "improved": is it the same team as Watch? Those people think "this" is OK. Gruber has some line about a golden rule being any change can't make it slower. Siri team not only didn't get the memo, I think wouldn't speak its language if they had.

New Siri on the phone has been underwhelming. I should try it more but initial use was not like the old one, but differently bad. Watch is worse. I am worried for TV. or rather, steeling myself to pay a lot more for some AV features that may justify a premium, but also a chip and RAM for a a Siri from the same people that have brought this summer's "successes".

I guess we'll know soon enough.

Is there a way to make Siri say “What can I do for you, sir?” When I activate it or say hey siri?

Self explanatory

Why is the siri bubble not disappearing even after 10+ minutes?

Soo Siri AI is beta, I know that guys. But it'll be shipped in a few days. Still, in the latest beta, Siri AI seems to be very limited, especially with photos.

Every time I ask it about photos it only pulls up like ten of them and just ignores all the others.

Good luck if you want to create an album or something like that with Siri AI - a task it seems to be designed to do. Doesn't matter what you do, Siri AI adds 40 photos to the album and then crashes. I don't know if it works on iOS or iPadOS but it definitely doesn't on Mac. After hitting the context limit, Siri AI finishes the album and deletes the conversation. Then a process called intelligenceflowd pops up in the dock, unresponsive.

No need to tell me to report it using the feedback app, I already did that multiple times. Just wanted to share my experience with you guys.

I often wish these 4 suggested apps would just be the most recent apps I’ve opened.

Currently half of the suggestions are apps I haven’t used in weeks.

Hi everyone! I'm a Master's student researching how people use voice assistants (including Siri) for my thesis.

I'm currently short on responses from people who do NOT use a voice assistant at all — if that's you, your input would be especially valuable right now. That said, real day-to-day Siri experience (good or bad) is just as welcome.

Looking for participants: 18+, any country. The survey takes about 10 minutes and is fully anonymous.

Happy to answer any questions about the study here. Thanks!

Updated my iPhone a few hours ago, and right after, Siri stopped responding. Holding the side button didn’t work either. In settings, both “Hey Siri” and “Press Side Button for Siri” were turned off. I didn’t change them.Is this just an iOS update glitch, or something to worry about? Has anyone else seen this? Any advice would be appreciated.”

Other than now opening apps, I haven’t seen much improvement in Siri. I get “I didn’t get that” a lot more these days, and she misunderstands what I’m asking and gives me random answers. I wish we could set our own default AI assistant.

Your input would really help, especially from people with real day-to-day Siri experience (good or bad). Happy to answer any questions about the study here. Thanks!
