As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it…
Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response.
Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should.
No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.
Siri is pretty much useless. When I see how well something like Alexa works, I really don’t understand how Apple can be so far behind on that technology.
I have Alexa. It’s pretty crappy too.
The thing that bugs me about Alexa is that I will ask a question and it will answer as it should, but then continues, “By the way, …” and tells me something completely unrelated. I understand they are trying to inform of other features and capabilities, but I don’t want to hear about them and wish I could turn this off.
I’ve used both extensively and Alexa is miles ahead of Siri.
This is the biggest issue for me too, but Apple is working on on-device LLMs so I’m hoping they use that to improve Siri drastically
I only use Siri to start timers when cooking, do quick maths and conversions, and to pull up random things that my wife and I are discussing that we don’t know the answer to. It works well with just those use-cases.
Yes and if you want to use your phone in your car then you have to have Siri enabled. It’s the one thing I won’t enable to use CarPlay.
Agree. Recently purchased an Homepod Mini for my Mac Mini and Siri is so bad compared to Alexa.
I use Alexa and Siri. Siri is leaps and bounds better than Alexa.
