THE BASICS

Just Ask Siri

Siri can do a lot more than set alarms and call your friends. With Shortcuts, it has the power to use your favorite apps to help you get things done with just a tap or by saying, “Hey Siri.”

Want to check the ETA of the next train on your commute? Or reorder a latte just the way you like it (iced, sugar-free vanilla, with soy)? Siri now works hand in hand with a range of apps—and even suggests actions at just the right time. Custom phrases let you do it all by asking Siri.
