Hi Les, Try saying “Open Tune”, that did it for me. Definitely odd, but typical SIRI nonsense. I still can’t believe when I sometimes ask SIRI to call a certain business like the Sears department store how it finds and lists all Sears stores in a 300 mile radius but not our local one which is

Hi Richard, same here, you just have to say “Open KNFB” and not “Open KNFB Reader”. I have it on my main home screen so I usually don’t use SIRI to open these apps since I can find them easily and quickly, but “Open KNFB” is shorter anyways. Regards, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com
