Yes, that would make sense as (it seems) most systems search by default 
on last name.

Try putting “Pizza Hut” in the last name field as fwelland all 
should be as you expect.


I run into a situation often where I ask, for example, “Call BC 
Liquor Store” or “Call Sears”. These are just examples of businesses 
which exist in many towns/cities. I live in a small town in northern 
British Columbia and the next towns are about an hour away and the 
next larger cities are 2 and 4 hours away, respectively. So, I ask 
to call the business name and SIRI tells me it, for example, found 
“BC Liquor Store” in Houston, Terrace, Prince Rupert etc. all of 
these are from 40 to 250 miles away and it will finally come to the 
liquor store that is half a mile from my house after listing 6 or 8 
others first which are all over the place. If the store is only in 
my town it has no problems finding it and it’s yet another example 
of how poorly SIRI performs in certain situations where it should 
work flawlessly.


One thing I just discovered and this must be new (I am running iOS 
10 Beta) is that I can finally ask “What is the battery level” and 
SIRI will actually answer and give me the battery percentage. Maybe 
some who use iOS 9 can try this and see if it is simply a SIRI 
upgrade that works in all iOS versions or if it is new in iOS 10.

I have Pizza Hutt in my contacts.  However, when I tell Siri to call 
Pizza Hutt, she appears to look for Pizza Hutts on the web.  I say 
this because instead of just calling the Pizza Hutt that is in my 
contacts, she gives me suggestions of places near by.  Is there any

Siri and Battery Level in iOS 9.3.4 was RE: Siri doesn't seem to notice some contacts

2016-08-22 Thread Alan Lemly
Hi Sieghard,

 

I just asked Siri "what is my battery level" using my iPhone 6 running iOS 
9.3.4. Siri's response was to look for the battery icon in the upper right of 
the screen. She also mentioned where battery percentage could be turned on in 
the settings.

 

I guess getting useful battery info from Siri will be an iOS 10 thing.

Re: Siri doesn't seem to notice some contacts

2016-08-22 Thread Sherrie
Why not try adding something else to the contact name , like the city name or 
the Shopping center name or something so you could say something like call 
Pizza Hut Park Plaza”  or Pizza Hut Elizabethton, for example.
Actually I do not have this problem with Siri most of the time. I can say call 
Publix, or Wal-mart or whatever and she calls the one in my contacts.   
HTH,
Sherrie

Subject: Siri doesn't seem to notice some contacts

I have Pizza Hutt in my contacts.  However, when I tell Siri to call Pizza 
Hutt, she appears to look for Pizza Hutts on the web.  I say this because 
instead of just calling the Pizza Hutt that is in my contacts, she gives me 
suggestions of places near by.  Is there any way I can fix this?

Try variations such as "contact pizza hut" or "dial pizza hut."
