  • Rene/Peter, During your show you were discussing the reason for what I'll call "hold for Siri" and you were saying it was so that Siri would not KEEP listening when you were done. That may be true, however that hasn't been my experience/issue. What this fix has done for me is allow me to KEEP siri listening. Previously Siri would cut me off regularly when I was dictating a text, thinking my very minor pause was an indication I was done. Other times it would simply cut me off mid-sentence. As with the other side of the issue it probably has to do with ambient noise as I use that functionality primarily while driving to keep my eyes on the road (don't text and drive!), but I was surprised I didn't hear you address the fix from that side as well.
