As an iPhone user, I was waiting for SIRI to improve. But anyway, Apple’s famous voice assistant has worsened. When I am at home, when I am at home, go out, and chat behind the wheel through the Carplay, it often does not react correctly.

I’ve used other assistants, such as Chatgpt and Google Gemini. It is helpful when you need in -depth information or analysis. However, since SIRI is built in iOS, it is the only person who can handle personal information or directly interact with my mobile phone. If you need to play music, get instructions, set up notifications, call contacts, send letters, add appointments, activate shortcuts, or start the app. It means that I am attached to it, whether I’m better or bad.

also: You need to adjust the new glow effect of SIRI for iOS 18 and other settings.

But I don’t have to accept worse. There is a way to improve behavior despite the shortcomings and defects of Siri. You can modify certain mistakes, modify questions, re -educate your voices, change your voices of SIRI, and adjust specific options. Apple ultimately needs to modify Siri, but at least you can take specific measures to make it less terrible. There are 10 ways:

How to make Siri less terrible

What you need: Apple device with siri such as iPhone or iPad. This guide will show you how to improve SIRI in your iPhone.

Siri often doesn’t understand what you are talking about? You may need to train or retrain to better recognize your voice and words.

Go to your iPhone, select Siri or Apple Intelligence & Siri, then tap Talk & Type to Siri. Turn off the options at the top. Select Siri or Hey Siri or Hey Siri and turn on again. You will see a message to train or retrain your voice.

In addition, I bought iPhone 16 for AI function, but never used it.

Keep tapping until you reach the first screen where you see the message you see. Continue with each phrase that appears. Announces each word clearly and verifies that you are speaking with ordinary tone and volume. It was completed when it was completed. Siri must now be able to understand you more clearly.

Siri is sometimes difficult to pronounce the name, especially an abnormal name. In the past, you can simply teach you how to correct your name by simply speaking. Apple has been eliminated since then, but it can still help Siri.

Open the contact app and choose the name of a person with a challenging name. Tap Edit, Swipe under the screen, and then tap the link to tap the field. Select the name or sex field according to the person who needs to modify it. When you speak in the letters and speak loudly, how to hear the name is heard, then tap. To test this, pronounce a person’s name to SIRI or open a person’s contact card and ask for “siri, pronounced this name.” Then Siri must use the added pronunciation.

You can tell Siri to answer shoes, visuals or both. Go to Settings, select Siri or Apple Intelligence & Siri and click Siri Response. Select a quiet response to keep Siri quietly unless you drive or use your headphones. Even if the Silent mode is turned on, I prefer SIRI for compulsory response to respond with shoes. Select Auto to determine whether or not Siri will talk. To see the question and SIRI’s response on the screen, always turn on the switch for display.

You can talk with Siri without repeating the entire question or request. For example, “Siri, how about the weather in Paris?” After Siri’s response, “How about London?” SIRI will understand that they are blooming about previous questions and will respond accordingly.

Changing the language or voice of SIRI is more accurate or trustworthy. But doing so can provide more familiar or attractive reactions.

To modify the language, go to the settings and select the Siri or Apple Intelligence & Siri and Tab languages. You can choose from Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Spanish and other. Even if you speak English, you can choose specific variations such as Canada, Ireland or British. When completed, tap the left arrow and return to the screen.

To modify the voice, press the voice. You can choose from a few different languages ​​depending on the selected language. Tap a specific voice to listen to the sound. When completed, go back to the home screen and try.

To instruct and guide Siri, you can use a specific third -party app to answer questions or to make a request. To confirm this, go to the settings and select Siri or Apple Intelligence & Siri and click the app at the bottom of the screen. Tap the name of the app you want to use with SIRI and make sure that the switch is activated in various options.

Now ask Siri to do something with the app. For example, you may want to listen to your favorite music through the music streaming app. If you say something like “Siri, Pandora,” you need to launch a Pandora app from your phone to play the requested music.

Is there a problem with Siri still? Apple offers a variety of accessibility options. Go to the settings to select accessibility and press Siri.

Set how long SIRI should wait until Siri stops speaking during SIRI pause. Default, longest or longest. In the case of speaking speed, adjust the slider to determine how fast or slow Siri is. Here you can also find a spoken response option. Play with each setting to see what is best for you.

Turn on the switch. Always see if SIRI is listening to Siri, even if SIRI is facing or covered down to listen to SIRI. If you use the settings that Siri needs for the interruption, you must say siri, hey, or siri to interfere with the response. Next, turn on the switch to listen to the unstructured speech to improve SIRI’s voice recognition. Mark notifications in the speaker and listen to SIRI about the iPhone speaker. Finally, if you hang up the phone, you can say “siri, break.”

Sometimes the best way to interact with SIRI is through automated shortcuts. To start, open the shortcut app in the iPhone and tap the gallery icon. There is a shortcut group that is ready to try here. Choose a shortcut to interest and tap “Add shortcuts” to add it to the library.

Next, check the shortcut icon in the app to check the contents you added and the pre -defined shortcuts that can be set. Tap the shortcut and try. You can also create your own custom shortcuts here.

From the following site Reddit,,, Everydayand githubYou can find a shared shortcut made by others, which can be added to your library. And if you know the name of the shared shortcut to use, you can find it in iCloud. Check out more information about the shortcuts Apple’s shortcut user guide.

In addition, iOS 18 creates a complex iPhone function much more user -friendly (and I am a fan).

You can instruct Siri to run a specific shortcut outside the shortcut app. “Siri, [name of shortcut.]”And Siri must run it. If you solve the problem, you may need to edit or change the shortcut for the work that can be done in the shortcut app.
