AppleWatch-2“There’s a lot to love about Siri on the Apple Watch: The microphone is defter at parsing what you’re saying, your virtual assistant can process a number of tasks, and your watch is often more convenient for dictated tasks than your iPhone,” Serenity Caldwell writes for iMore.

“There are two normal ways to trigger Siri on your Apple Watch: On screen wake, say ‘Hey Siri’ followed by your command, or press in the Digital Crown until you feel the haptic buzz, then dictate your question,” Caldwell writes. “Unfortunately, thanks to room noise and other external factors, Siri doesn’t always trigger reliably on the watch.”
