Millions of iPhone owners are now using Siri wrong after iOS 17 update lets you save so much time

IPHONE fans have discovered that the Siri function has changed with the new iOS 17 update.

This last Monday, Apple rolled out its brand new iOS version: iOS 17.

With the update came plenty of new tools and features that are meant to enhance the iPhone user experience.

Many of these tools use machine learning to be the most helpful they can be.

Siri, Apple’s famous artificial intelligence-powered assistant, is a prime example of this.

The assistant, which has been around since September 2016, got some much-needed upgrades.

SIRI UPDATES

For starters, users who install iOS 17 will now be able to say ‘Siri’, instead of ‘Hey, Siri’ to activate the tool.

In turn, this will make conversations quicker and more conversational.

Another improvement for the AI assistant is the ability to make follow-up commands without needing to say ‘Siri’ again.

Siri can also now respond even when your iPhone is in Standby Mode on iOS 17.

Apple noted that Siri detects this phrase with low-power on-device processing that keeps your audio private.

Here’s how you can change Siri wake command to just “Siri” on iPhone or iPad:

First, open the Settings app on your iPhone.

Then, scroll down to the Siri & Search option and tap it.

From here, click on the “Listen for” section to bring up all available wake phrases for Siri.

Now, choose the “Siri” option at the top of the list to use both keywords.
