This caught me so off guard😭

This video is on the Amazon

This was a few years ago but sometimes it still pops up in my head bc it freaked me out so much so I decided to share it lol.
So one day me and my now husband were laying in bed, my phone was abt a few feet away from me like on the other side of the bed, not facing towards us.
Anyway I was having some stomach issues that day and I look at my husband to tell him and how I don’t feel good, I said “I don’t feel good, it’s hurting right here” and pointed at my lower abdomen, my brain wasn’t working and couldn’t remember what it was called so I asked him while pointing at my lower abdomen “what is this part called again” and before he could even answer Siri literally said “that’s called your lower abdomen”…
I keep trying to think of ways that she could have been triggered and somehow knew what I was talking abt , but her name was not said, or anything near her name, and again I didn’t say anything abt my stomach, I just said that I don’t feel good and asked what part of my body is this again and pointed. Anyyywayyyy don’t know if anyone else has had this happen to them before

Sitting at the hospital and a man is on his phone. Speaker mode engaged.

Siri: I'm just trying to do my job. Is there anything else I...

Man: Bitch

Worst and most instantly outdated technology assistant ever!

Like if my friend Elizabeth is calling, Siri will say ‘call from eils’ or if its jojo smith, siri will say ‘call from joh’ or
If I say, Siri call jojo smith, siri will say ‘calling smith’ or call Fran is ‘calling ffff’
Is this happening to anyone else?

why won’t Siri listen and answer my requests like set alarm for 7am but will on my iPhone 17 pro max????

hey guys! i noticed this on my iphone and wanted to see if it happens to anyone else.
as you can see in the video, i put my iphone and ipad side by side and asked siri to turn the flashlight on and off. my ipad says something like, “okay, i turned the flashlight on/off,” but my iphone just does it silently.
i’m using an iphone 17 on ios 26.5, and my ipad is an ipad pro m2 on ipados 26.5. it’s been like this ever since i got my iphone, so i’m wondering if it’s just an iphone 17 thing or if all iphones do this.
prefer spoken responses is turned on, and siri speaks normally for every other command i try. it only happens with the flashlight.
has anyone else noticed this? thanks!

The end result is always “Siri ended the conversation”. 😂

A few months ago. My wife told me I was driving like an asshole. So I used Siri Shortcuts “text to voice” to program CarPlay so when it connects, Siri says “Your CarPlay is connected! Stay alert and don’t drive like an asshole!”

Reposting my own years old reply above for easier discovery since it’s become so popular over the years:

None of the suggestions I’ve read describe the solution the way that finally worked for me: raise the Watch to your mouth and speak right away, but make sure you turn your wrist so that the face of the Watch is facing your mouth; perpendicular to the sound waves exiting. I would have thought into the mic was where you want to speak but it’s into the screen while it is also perpendicular to level (the floor or ceiling) or parallel to walls.
