Hi Tom, which version of iOS are you using? You say you have an XR, but are you using the public release of 16.02 or 16.03 or are you on the 16.1 public beta. Just asking because I'm curious why some people say telling Siri to restart their phone or to shut down their phone does not seem to work. I can't remember whether I was already on the iOS 16.1 public beta when I heard that Siri can do this now or if mysteriously this works for most people but not for some.
I think it would be good if anybody for whom this does not work could say exactly which iOS version they are on and also which phone they have. I assume it is possible that it may not work on an iPhone 8 or 8 Plus due to some hardware limitation. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Tom Rash Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2022 4:11 AM To: Viphone <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Shutting Down With Side-Button I thought this feature was only available on the iPhone 14.
