I’ve made quite a bit of content about Siri here on the channel, and I’m very aware that it lags behind a lot of the voice assistant competition, especially as AI is starting to become more widely adopted, but for better or worse, Siri is the tool that over 1.3 billion of us have access to, so we might as well try and get the most out of it.

Siri how do you
How do you stop siri from mis pronouncing my city? Its spelled Cairo and pronounced Karo
Another useful feature of Siri when your hands are busy & your phone is ringing at a distance, you can say :
“hey Siri answer the call on speakerphone”
Very handy !!
You are right about that. Many time my hands are full of grit and grime and I wouldn't dare touch the phone.
I didn’t know that!!! That will be very useful when I’m cooking. Thank you!
Thank you sir, that will be a big help to me!!
Yes! An excellent share that I recently learned by trial and error, I believe!
dddd
Please make a video on iCloud Backup. This is quite confusing for some people including me sometimes.
You mean using iCloud to backup your device? Sure, this is something I could look into.
@@ProperHonestTech That would be awesome!
Thanks so much! Could you also do a video on how to delete unwanted info from iCloud?
Yes in and out of icloud info like if we can delete multiple backups, or like if delete the photo on iCloud then will it be deleted from the photos app confusing stuff like that
@@erinhills4290 I’d love to empty iCloud to free up space as I won’t pay 😂
I think one reason these videos are so useful is because you model exactly how to make a specific request. I find that unless I know the words to use, I get bogged down. I often think it’s the panic that comes from knowing some entity is waiting for a clear request. May be an odd reaction, but I wonder if others experience it too!
Same here. I just freeze up sometimes when making a big request.
Just ask it as if it was a very intelligent person willing to help you .
I have to say I truly appreciate your videos. Not only for the clear teaching manner you have about them, but man - the professional look and editing. Extremely well done videos with effects, transitions, synced up videos… Impressive.
Totally agree! Your videos are extremely helpful, professional and your teaching method with on screen graphics etc are great!
I must agree. As a student hobbyist of videography, I do like your work. I hope to be as talented one day.
This was so good. I barely use Siri because in the past it was so limited. Now I’m really gonna try to start using it again. Thank you so much.
I use Siri quite a lot and find her quite helpful most of the time. All the tips to use Siri I got from this channel or I would not have known! I always use Siri to turn on/off my torch with the command “Lumos “/“Nox” - from Harry Potter 😊 Again PHT told me this command. Love this channel 💜
A VERY helpful video! The tips about passwords & the Tip function on the Watch Calculator app are brilliant. Thanks so much!
Thanks for all the great tips!
Your videos are always very informative! Sometimes you give me new ideas about how to get better use of the little tricks for my IPhone. I also love your style - as if you were sharing it with a friend ❤ Thanks for all you do to make our lives a little less frustrating 😅
Excellent video. Always learn something new. And I still use PIA and love it.
This is awesome and exactly what I needed! THANK YOU!😊
Excellent tutorial. I learned some new tips from this video. Many thanks!
Wow, I ALWAYS get value from your videos. Thank you and please keep them coming 👍
Great tutorial, thanks 🙏🏻
This was fantastic. I learned several things in this video. As always, great job and thank you.
I’m so glad you don’t rush what you are saying so that I can follow! Good videos
Great Siri video! I use many of the things you mentioned that Siri can do often. There were a couple of things I didn’t know but will start using them. I didn’t know that Siri will pronounce words when asked. There is a music instrument in the Bible I didn’t know the correct pronunciation of it. I asked Siri and it gave me the British pronunciation and also the American pronunciation. Kudos to Siri! Thanks
Brilliant! I actually didn’t know any of this. My VPN finishes in December and I’m definitely swapping over, so thank you for that!
Very useful thanks Tom.
Thanks. I didn’t know most of these. I rarely use Siri, not because I dislike the assistant, but because I’ve never gotten around to learning it. I’m likely to actually use some of these!
Thank you very interesting and very helpful
Excellent & helpful tips!
Great info. Thank you
Great information, as usual. Thank you!
The email search is the best for me! I wish I saw this video two days ago! I was searching for a specific email, and iPhone does not have the search option….now I know it does! Awesome
Thank you very much. As always very helpful.
Great tips!
Again, another very helpful vid. Thank you. I used PIA for a while, and it was fine. Occasionally I would have connectivity issues. I've tried others, too, with mixed results. Currently I'm using Mullvad, the NYT Wirecutter's top recommendation. So far no performance issues, except split tunneling on a Mac is a bit of a cluster. That bit is definitely not plug and play. So far that's my only negative.
This was so useful, thank you! I swapped Samsung for iPhone & I've used Siri for some of the basics but this has been incredibly helpful. I'm also looking for another VPN provider so I'll take a look at PIA.
Thank you very much!
I always learn something from your videos mate , thank you.
Proper Honest Tech, hey fella I can honestly say you have one of the clearest and easiest voices to listen to and understand. You definitely come across as extremely professional in my opinion.
You have the best videos. I always learn new useful ways to use Siri from you and other valuable information. Thanks for all you do to bring us worthy content. Kindness, Teresa
Extremely helpful! 🌟
Thank you ~ Very helpful
super helpful thank you
Yes! A video on iCloud back up would be very helpful. Thank you for all your tips and tricks. VERY useful!!
😊
This was quite helpful. Thank you.
Thank you again
Thank you, really appreciate your useful tips , I enjoy every bit of your info ❤❤❤❤
Thank you, great video!
Excellent thanks so much
Great practical info
Lots of great information. Thanks for sharing. 😊
This was very helpful. I am a visually impaired and I use Siri every day. I learn something new in your video once again, this is so helpful. 11:57
Didn’t think I’d learn anything new with Siri but all of these were pretty decent. Thanks.
Great lessons keep up the excellent work ❤
I learned so much from this video! Thank you so much.
Excellent video…the best information I have found for my iPhone and my watch. I have subscribed. Glad I found you.
Very helpful. Thank you very much.
One thing I find helpful, especially having multiple Apple devices is the ability to put the phone face down and Siri will not respond on this device that works so that I can use Siri on my iPad. For example or so many other Apple devices are on my home just a helpful to know when you might have to make a change in your settings to make it work if it doesn’t work for me Attley.
good stuff - thanks.
Very helpful! Liked & subbed.
Nice and informative video. Thank you.
Great, easy-to-understand and follow info, explained slowly and clearly! PS. How do you get Siri to consistently capitalize the first letter of a word?
Al your videos are great thank you.
I love the password one. I know it’s a first world problem but I find it tedious making my way to passwords the traditional way 👍🏽
Lol, I didn't even know there was a passwords section in Settings and when I went there I had no saved passwords. Are they only for Websites ?
I appreciate all of your videos. Always explained in an easy to understand manner. The graphics are great.
👍 Great info thanks
Thanks for the knowledge ✌️✌️
Great vid!
Another great video. The “am I free” worth the watch alone.
Good video again, thanks
That was a very smart introduction! Thanks for this video.
"Genuinely Useful" indeed!!! Thank you!!!!
Thank you. Really helpful again. I really enjoy your posts. My friends think I'm a genius because I'm so tech savvy. I tell them about you.
Thank you very much. Appreciated.
Hello, and thank you once again for excellent and informative videos done in such a calm and concise manner. I wonder if you can help with a very annoying situation when it comes to invoking hey Sir by a voice command.i..Say I want to have Siri start recording a a voice memo, but it keeps saying: "you will have to unlock your iPhone first", despite its being allowed when the phone is locked. This is particularly annoying whilst one is driving.
Very interesting. Thanks for this video. Put my mind at ease about my battery
I don’t know why, but from my very 1st iPhone I ever had think around 2012 ……I always set Siri to the Australia version, it was a Nicer voice, (I live in the UK)………her real name is Karen Jacobsen. Then a few years ago I happened upon 2 Australia guys hosting a radio show on instagram, taking about Siri and “Karen” actually phoned in to speak to them, they thought it was a wind up, but it was real, and the story of how she came to be the ACTUAL voice of Siri Australia …. Was an interesting story. She is very helpful 😂 … great channel …… thanks
Excellent video. Thanks for these original tips. Have never come across them before. Keep up the good work. Subscribing
Thanks!
Thank you!
Very helpful so many things I did not know Siri could do
Hi! I love that link to the Private Internet package. What do you recommend? Both IP & VPN?
Great video - thank you! I knew some of these, but there were several helpful surprises! :-)
Another GREAT video👍
Great video. I saved it so I can go back and study it.
Once again another brilliant Siri video. These are just so very helpful. I use Siri for just about all my queries all day every day, and yet again, you have surprised me with functionality that I was unaware of. Thank you so much for the Siri videos.. I’m really hoping that Apple will absolutely deliver with new Siri features. Siri doesn’t have to be chat GPT, but she could be so much better. Siri ought to know everything on your device and be able to help you with it all.
That’s why Google is better
@@justinedge4834 google does do some very good things Justin , but google is far from perfect mate , and in some other ways behind .
If you compare google , bixby ,Siri , all three of them have strengths and weaknesses in certain areas.
And at times all of them get even the most rudimentary tasks wrong , none of this Ai stuff is fool proof , even if it is still very cool.
Am not a google fan at all for the personal assistant and will choose Siri each and every time. However, I think google is really great for other things.
Great Video 😎👍
I love the “tip” feature on my watch. Use it every time I eat out haha
I’ve got a few smart plugs for lamps and such around the house. Until recently, whenever I instructed “Siri, turn on bedside lamp” - I’d get a spoken acknowledgement from Siri that it had been turned on or off etc” (or more frequently - “not responding…”). This has changed to s simple tone now - I’ve been all through the settings having followed lots of vids on UA-cam- Siri settings are set to announce calls when I have AirPods in - which it does, “Prefer spoken responses” is ticked etc, but still no luck - any thoughts?
The screenshot tip is cool.
Hey bro.. Thank you so much for the informative videos you do on Apple. I have one question, please assist me on this
Q: When you use Apple Maps when driving, it will mirror the directions on my Apple watch as well, I would like to stop mirroring driving directions on the watch, please help me with this, thank you.
Omg the using Siri to show you passwords is next level 🔥🔥
I will have to watch them again. Few there I didn't know.
Thanks
Thank you very much!
Any way to make the AirPods pro2 more comfortable. I already tried the comply tips
Amazingly informative, as always. Thanks for the information. Curious though, you keep mentioning (apart from AI), there are better voice-assistants. What might it/they do that SIRI doesn’t? It’s hard to compare when one only has what one has. Thanks!! 😊. ALSO, what Apple HAS to do one of these days, is permit someone to ‘unlock’ without physically doing so. Perhaps a special password that also requires voice recognition?? Thanks!!
The Toronto Dominion Bank (Canada) uses voice recognition to access your account, why not Apple?
Very usefull info. Thanks! I prefer Nord as my VPN service.
Tried and dropped Nord VPN as it slowed my 500 Mbps connection to 200
Thanks very much for sharing. I too am anticipating that Apple will announce a major update to Siri. Hopefully they’ll surprise and delight us! 😊✨
V cool. Great tips, don’t use Siri enough
That is really helpful. I love that Siri no longer needs “Hey”, just Siri works. Siri has become more like Kaylee in “Why Him”, more conversational. You mentioned a computation, but did you know Siri will do running computations, ie Siri what is 45 times 438 ?, she responds, then you can ask, what is that answer divided by 3.142? Siri gives the answer. The fact that Siri now stores a value or item, I am expecting that I can ask, Siri, remember I need to pay the rent, or remember that the mail is in the kitchen. You covered where am I, but I need for Siri to remember this location. A number of times I have been driving and seen buildings I want to go back to later. When I am being guided by Maps, I don’t necessarily know where I am or how I got there. Siri store this trip will be useful. I suddenly hold out great hopes for Siri, especially as you have opened my awareness to Shortcuts App, and GoodLinks App. I live on a boat where there is an elevated level of domestic automation, and Siri can do a lot in this environment.
1:23 Yay! My email app was driving my nuts with it’s constant blinging when junk mail arrived while waiting for a specific email (bill).
This is great 👍 subscribed ok 👌
Can you send a voice note to yourself or is there any other option to capture voicerecorder like voicenotes with siri w/o touching the phone?
Thank you.
Very thorough and easy to understand.
Could you do a video on how to transfer data to a new apple device from an old one?
Like an Ipad for example.
I'll definitely explore the option and see if I can make a useful video about it.
@@ProperHonestTech I would VERY much appreciate that. Thank you 🙂
Great video. One question. My watch doesn't show the 'tip' icon when I open the calculator app on my Watch (series 8 latest software). and for some reason the calculator doesn't show on my available apps on my iPhone although it shows on the watch. Is it to do with regions as I'm in Australia ?
I always get Siri to play the latest BBC news to wake me up in the morning "Hay Siri play the latest BBC news". I use voice control on my iPad all the time, no pinky marks and it's quick and easy navigation with apps. Very handy when lying in bed as you have total control even a grid that you can use to tap specific things, once you get the hang of it you hardly ever even have to touch the iPad.
Thank god for Siri helping w tips. I suck at math 😅
