> Just in time to replace that broken Siri

oooh that would be awesome. I'm at a point where I only use it for timers and it even gets that wrong sometimes "I created an alarm named Timer for 01:30am".. oh yeah I can't just say "timer one hour thirty" because Siri hates British people and parses the numbers wrong lmao.

Also can we get multiple timers yet? Why is a device more powerful than the computer we used to send people to the moon limited to one timer?

Can't wait!

It's supported multiple timers for quite some, er, time.

Try: "Hey Siri give me a 90 minute beef timer", "Hey siri give me a 25 minute chips timer"

Mine just seems to say "there's already a timer running, do you want to replace it?"

Are we both talking about iPhone Siri?

Oh that's interesting! I'm using HomePods, how odd that iPhone Siri doesn't do multiple timers... It can work headlessly, so my guess is they've not bothered to write a UI for multiple timers on iOS... weird move

From what I recall, only HomePods support multiple timers... it's aggravating.

Watch does too.

iPhone Siri doesn’t. HomePod/watch Siri does.
