RE: siri opening apps

[Alan Lemly]

I'm still getting the unpredictability primarily with opening apps. I've found 
that if I go into Settings, General and turn Siri off and back on again, she'll 
successfully open the app the next time I ask her. This is a pain to have to do 
and it doesn't seem to stick before she'll be back to saying "I don't see that 
app on your device" or some such thing. I'm not convinced it's an iOS version 
issue either but I sure wish I could figure out what causes this and come up 
with a workaround.

Can't agree at this point.  It's far too constant for it to be a server issue.  
The servers didn't change, just Apple's offerings in apps and inability to 
surpass the competition.  I'm using the same version you are, btw.

I've been getting this Siri unprefictibility a lot lately especially where
opening apps and calling contacts is concerned. I am running Ios 8.3 on an
iPhone 6 but I'm skeptical that the iOS version has anything to do with it.
As Sieghard said, sometimes siri just doesn't work and I think it has
something to do with an issue at the Apple servers.

RE: siri opening apps

[Alan Lemly]

Thanks, Cher. I'll make sure I have all my playlists created before moving to 
iTunes 12 but I'm sure I'll come across many missing iTunes 11 features I'll 
lament after I take the plunge.

been lost- and Apple does not seem to care.

Oh, I know it's inevitable that I'll have to move to iTunes 12 and its progeny 
at some point because I intend to keep updating my iPhone which will come with 
the latest iOS and will require the latest iTunes.. However, I like to use my 
iPhones for a minimum of two years and at this point, there are no must-have 
apps out there which require iOS 9.x.

I know I'm more than a bit of a dinosaur, but I've found from my 34+ years of 
using personal computers and technology that I know what's best for me as to 
the timing of upgrades and that the hardware and app developers are mainly 
interested in getting my money as soon as and as often as possible rather than 
making sure I have a seamless use of said technology.

That does make sense.  I ought not to have doubted your reasoning.

However, that does leave you open for more headaches in some areas.

I know a few apps have made updates that only work under iOS 9.  I cannot 
remember which ones I read that in their what's new notes, but since I was 
running iOS 9.2.1, I didn't worry about it.

It kind of sounds like you are "darned if you do and darned if you don't."

Re: siri opening apps

[Alan Lemly]

Actually, I'm a big fan of the iTunes sidebar which was discontinued with 
iTunes 12. And since Itunes 12 was required for use with devices running Ios 
8.4 or higher introduced with Apple Music, I'm holding steady with iOS 8.3  
until I come across a more compelling reason to upgrade.

Hi Alan,

There are definitely times when SIRI seems to 
perform slower or less reliably, but I am not so 
sure if the iOS version is totally unrelated to 
that. Just out of curiocity, Alan, why still run 
8.3 now that iOS 9 is so stabil and relatively

iOS 8.3 as I recall, had its share of bugs, while 9.21 has resolved the vast

I've been getting this Siri unprefictibility a lot lately especially where 
opening apps and calling contacts is concerned. I am running Ios 8.3 on an 
iPhone 6 but I'm skeptical that the iOS version has anything to do with it. As 
Sieghard said, sometimes siri just doesn't work and I think it has something to 
do with an issue at the Apple servers.

RE: siri opening apps

Hi Alan,

There are definitely times when SIRI seems to perform slower or less reliably, 
but I am not so sure if the iOS version is totally unrelated to that. Just out 
of curiocity, Alan, why still run 8.3 now that iOS 9 is so stabil and 
relatively free of bugs? I guess it won't make sense to upgrade now until 9.3 
is released (any time nbetween Monday and Wednesday), but I also don't see why 
holding off at this point is a major benefit.

RE: siri opening apps

[Sieghard Weitzel]

SIRI just has issues now and then which usually clear up. However, is there a 
reason why you are running one of the first versions of iOS 9 which definitely 
had several issues which have since been resolved?

This is opposite of the topic thread, but I would like to see IOS modify
seri so that you can close apps as well.

I can tell Siri to open most apps without a problem.  Open notes 
works fine.  open settings, general, voiceover does what I want.  Can Siri
take me back to the home page, or open the app switcher?  My student has
very limited hand movement, and the more words she can use, the better.

Thanks.
