Just as another data point, I just tried opening a couple apps with Siri on my 13 Mini and it worked fine.

I think Appple’s server must be having issues.

A couple days ago I could use Siri to open apps, dictate, etc.

Today it is not working at all.

I held the side button and asked Siri to open several different apps, it just paused and made the tone that usually would indicate it was done, but the screen never changed.  No apps opened.

I’m writing Apple.

Interesting, I just tried to dictate in the edit field in the calendar, and nothing worked. Two finger double tap, or one finger double tap on the dictate button.

However I have added calendar events by telling Siri to schedle x appointment on x date, at x time.

I'll check my dictate ettings, then send a report to Apple.

    Yep, same here; 16 Pro, and I’ve seen this behavior going back to
    at least the 18.2 beta.

    I have a 16 pro as well and have experienced both of the issues
    described here. Actually, this started before 18.4 in my case.
    Rebooting the phone doesn’t seem to make that much difference.

        Hi,

        Just curious if others have this issue. Ever since iOS 18.4 it
        seems Siri often just won’t work. I have an iPhone 16 Pro and
        here are two examples:

        1. I press and hold the side button to bring up Siri, then I
        say something like “Call John Smith” or “Open Messages”, it
        doesn’t really matter what it is.

        Result: I hear a tone and then I am back at the home screen
        and Siri does nothing.

        2. I am in Messages or another app where I want to use
        dictation, let’s use Messages as the example. I am in a
        conversation and I am in the edit field and I do a 2-finger
        double tap to start dictation and I hear the beep and speak my
        text, then do a 2-finger double tap again to stop.

        Result: It goes back to the edit field and no text has been
        entered.

        Usually if I reboot my iPhone it works for a while, but this
        happens often and it’s a pain in the neck.

        Best regards,

        Sieghard
