Hello All, Just a little calendar tip. Just like you can use Siri to create a calendar event, you can also use Siri to tell you many things regarding your calendar and the events you have coming up. For example, you can ask Siri things like:
What is on my schedule today? And Siri will list the events and times of what is on your calendar for that day. Or, What is on my schedule for the week? And Siri will tell you what is on your calendar for the week. Now one thing I do at the first of each month is to get Siri to tell me the upcoming birthdays for that month. The key to finding things is to make sure you say it correctly. If I ask Siri what birthdays are scheduled for June, then Siri will answer that there is none. And that is because for each persons birthday, I enter on my calendar the person's name and the wore birthday, not birthdays. So if I ask Siri, what birthday do I have scheduled for June, then Siri will search the June calendar for every event that has the word birthday in it and list it out. Again, Siri can be very helpful in searching your calendar, but you have to give Siri the correct words to search for. Like I can ask Siri, when is my next haircut scheduled? And Siri will search the calendar for the next mention of the word haircut, then she will tell me the date and time. So as long as you have an internet connection, Siri can really help you find things on your calendar very quickly. I hope this has been helpful!
