Whether you’re an iPhone user or not, it is highly unlikely that you haven’t heard of Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant that is baked right into all Apple iPhones and iPads. Virtual assistants like Siri have improved a lot in recent years and can be used for much more than telling you about the weather or performing a Google search. Here’s our list of 5 fantastic things Siri can do for you:
Post to Facebook or Twitter
Siri can be used to compose social media posts. Just say “Post to (Facebook or Twitter)” and Siri will ask you to dictate your message and automatically post it for you. Now you can manage your social media accounts without struggling to type on a touchscreen keyboard ever again.
Calculate a tip (or just do math)
By simply reading out a math question, Siri will solve it for you. This saves you from having to use your calculator app to try and work out the discount on the latest sale at your favorite store. Simply ask Siri to calculate 25% off!
Find a specific email
Siri can be used to search for an email from a specific person or with specific content. This is considerably faster than having to manually go through every email.
Calendar Shortcuts
Siri can tell you when a holiday falls on a specific day (like when that public holiday falls on a weekend) or how many more days until a specific date. Now you have no excuse for forgetting bae’s birthday.
Check traffic
You can ask Siri to check what the traffic is like when you’re travelling. Perfect if you’re travelling with kids and you need to know exactly how long you have to keep them entertained.
