    I never quite got that. Apple boys and commercials alsways treated siri like that smart, super useful thing that can answer questions and is basically a thinking being. In reality it’s some speech to text google machine that can do a few things sometimes. Same with the android equivalent, i use it to set a timer while cooking, for the life of me i can’t imagine using it for anything else.

        Is “Hey Siri, skip this track” really any better than just, reaching up and tapping your earphone?

          I usually listen to music on some Google home device, so it works for me. Or if I’m cooking and have dirty hands.

          Of course when I’m commuting I just control it on the earphone.
