Hi David, But SIRI always on will only work in iOS 8 when the phone is plugged in, if the phone is running on battery saying "Hey SIRI" will not activate SIRI. I believe at WWDC they referred to it as "when the iPhone is in car mode" and I guess this is primarily designed for people who want to activate SIRI handsfree when they are driving. It is reasonable to assume that when you are driving you can plug your iPhone in and this way the SIRI always on feature will not use up your battery which might be the case if SIRI is always listening while the phone is on battery power.

It is entirely possible that VO is occasionally activating some embedded code currently. Again, the new announced feature will most probably clear this particular bug in just a couple months. We have an effective work-around until then.

Some folks say it does not really drain their battery but it significantly drains the battery on my iPhone 5S. Typically from night to morning my phone will go from 100 percent to 99% or even 100%. However, if I forget to do the work around after dictating into an edit field my battery will be 50 percent or less in the morning. :( > > Christina >> On Jul 1, 2014, at 10:54 PM, Brian Fischler <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Wow this bug sucks as I didn't seem to be affected it in 7.1.1 but since I updated yesterday I am noticing it now what an incredibly awful bug that should have been a top priority to be fixed > > -- > The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
