Siri 4 What is Siri? Siri is the intelligent personal assistant that helps you get things done just by talking. Siri understands natural speech, so you don’t have to learn specific commands or remember keywords. You can ask things in different ways. For example, you can say “Set the alarm for 6:30 a.m.” or “Wake me at 6:30 in the morning.” Either way, Siri gets it. WARNING: For important information about avoiding distraction while driving, see Important safety information on page 129.
Using Siri Starting Siri Siri comes to life with the press of a button. Start Siri: Press the Home button until Siri appears. If you didn’t turn Siri on when you set up iPod touch, go to Settings > General > Siri. You’ll hear two quick beeps and see “What can I help you with?” on the screen. Just start speaking. The microphone icon lights up to let you know that Siri hears you talking. Once you’ve started a dialogue with Siri, tap the microphone icon to talk to it again.
Siri also wants to know about the important people in your life, so put those relationships on your personal info card—Siri can help you. For example, if you tell Siri to text your sister, Siri asks you who your sister is (if you don’t already have that info on your card). Siri adds that relationship to your personal info card so it doesn’t have to ask next time.
Accessibility Siri is accessible to blind and visually impaired users through VoiceOver, the screen reader built into iOS. VoiceOver describes aloud what’s onscreen—including any text in Siri’s responses—so you can use iPod touch without seeing it. Turn on VoiceOver: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility. Turning on VoiceOver causes even your notifications to be read aloud for you. For more information, see VoiceOver on page 106.
Movies Ask Siri about what movies are playing, or where you can see a specific movie. Find out when a film premiered, who directed it, and what awards it won. Siri gives theater locations, show times, and Rotten Tomato reviews. Siri works with Fandango to help you purchase tickets (for theaters that support it). Ask about showtimes for a movie, or tell Siri you want to buy tickets. When you tap Buy Tickets, Fandango opens if it’s installed, or you’ll be prompted to install the app from the App Store.
Correcting Siri If Siri is having trouble Siri may sometimes have trouble understanding you—in a noisy environment, for example. If you speak with an accent, it can take Siri some time to get used to your voice. If Siri doesn’t hear you exactly right, you can make corrections. Siri shows what it heard you say, along with its response. Correct what Siri hears you say: Tap the bubble showing what Siri heard you say. Edit your request by typing, or tap on the keyboard to dictate.
