Siri lives in my phone and she can't even bring up Uber or tell my MapMyRun app to pause. Alexa is way better. Does google or microsoft have an anthropomorphised speech to command lady?

because siri's app integration only exists to push you into using apple apps. in a perfect world i'd be able to play music from spotify w/ siri but how would that feature generate revenue for apple

As a Millennial I posted:actually tho you can just say "hey siri launch uber" and it should work Yeah at which point I have to use my fingers like some sort of stone age clown. Does apple ever plan to fix this obvious flaw, since they clearly do not care about any of their native apps (because they are mostly horrible).

Siri is great for setting an alarm or changing the music track while driving

For that specific phrase anything but the timer is stupid
