Re: 16.1 & Siri

[Richard Turner]

I suspect not; but you could ask Apple Accessibility if that is a setting somewhere. I knew someone in college who took that kind of response as a very rude way to respond. It also strikes me as the kind of response someone gives when they ar: reading and only half listening to you. But, I usually don't hear it because I don't wait for a response when I use Hey Siri; because I know as soon as I say Hey Siri, it is listening; so no need to wait for its response.

Are you using Hey Siri or holding the side button?  If holding the button, the tone to say Siri is listening does take longer to sound and it is much softer than it used to be.
