If you have an iPhone do you use Siri.....

[widgeon13]

and just what do you use it for?

I never use it. Am I missing something?

[dad911]

Yes. Not often, but if I'm driving she can voice dial calls hands free, and send text messages.

Kind of funny to ask her silly questions, like if she wants to go to the movies.

I used it at first. But now Ill just use it for directions when driving maybe. Unfortunately, it always brings up iPhone Maps. Seems like just a novelty at this point. Give it a few more years.

More like a cocktail party tool, lets see who can elicit the dumbest response.

Honestly, it's cute but I never use it.

I use it when I'm driving. I dictate a lot of notes to it, use it to send iMessages or make calls, and use it (her?) for driving directions. I find it very useful.

[CHICKS]

I use her when looking for food, and gas. I ask her to call whoever I want called, I also ask her measurement stuff, like how many oz's in a gallon, silly stuff like that.

We don't talk much anymore.

I don't have an iphone, but my boss does and I hear him use it fairly regularly.

I use Siri to ask for what the weather will be, for sending text messages and make phone calls while driving, for trivia related questions, and some novelty stuff too.

Here's a amazing and scary thing you can do: Ask Siri what planes are flying overhead. It will tell you airlines, flight numbers, an altitude information.

I use it and find it helpful when I am driving also to find restaurants and certain locations.

My kids (elementary school aged) love playing around with Siri. Heck, every once in awhile I hear my daughter (play) arguing with her.

Wow, just tried that!

[onewhippedpuppy]

Nope. She rarely understands or finds what I'm looking for.

Nice for handsfree or to simply bypass some keystrokes.

It is nice to say "Siri, send an email to Joe" or call Joe and she will look up their number or email address in your contacts and do so.

She will look up a song from your uploaded music and play it for you.

She is good for finding closest gas or fast food...since she knows where you are...even if you are lost.

Ask her to tell you a joke.

Just don't label your mom's cell number as Moms Cell in your contacts.

Siri: Call Moms Cell

"What is the number for Moms Cell?"

Siri: No, call Moms Cell

"You wish to call your mother, what is the number?"

Siri: It's Moms Cell, call Moms Cell

"I can call Moms Cell, what is Moms number?"

Siri: Moms Cell is the contact I want you to call.

"You want to make a contact for Moms Cell? I can do that. What is Moms number?"

**** you Siri

"I sense you are upset"

Ha! I have a contact "Erins Cell." The only way I can get Siri to call it is to ask for, "Erincell" with an accent on the "rin."

[nostatic]

no

We went steady for a while, but then we broke up. She just didn't understand me...
