But that doesn’t mean it didn’t get anything new and exciting.
But why pop in to Siri?
Well, aside from no longer worrying about the chatbot misunderstanding you, there’s autofill suggestions.
It really can be a faster way to get things done.
Toggle it on fromSettings>Apple Intelligence & Siri>Apple Intelligence.
it’s possible for you to even use punch in to Siri from the lock screen.
This will bring up the keyboard and a new Siri interface.
Start typing anything you want and you’ll see Siri suggestions show up top.
After typing your question out (or tapping a suggestion), press theSendbutton to make your request.
You’ll find Siri’s response in the floating window up top.
Like with regular Siri, you are free to continue typing and asking more questions as you kindly.
Like on mobile devices, you’ll have to sit through a short waitlist.
Then, by default, press theCommandbutton twice to bring up throw in to Siri.
But because this is the Mac we’e referring to, the shortcut is customizable.
Or you could take full control and use theCustomizeoption to change the shortcut to whatever you like.
key in to Siri on the Mac works similarly to how it works on mobile devices.
Press theEnterkey to send the request over to Siri.
Shortcuts are deeply integrated into Siri, and it’s the same with punch in to Siri.
Tap on it and the Shortcut instantly trigger.
I’ve found this to be much faster than using Siri voice commands to trigger Shortcuts.
Search for a playlist or a track and it should almost immediately show up in suggestions.
you might go even further beyond by creating text expansion shortcuts for your frequently used commands.
For example, you could simply key in “drkmd” to enable Dark Mode on your phone.
Set this up by navigating toSettings>Keyboards>Text Replacement, then tapping thePlusbutton.
throw in the phrase as “toggle dark mode” and shortcut as “drkmd,” then tapSave.
