I was hoping to see some Siri improvements but unfortunately nothing major there. It does seem like they fixed the issue where Siri would give you snarky replies when it misunderstand you, but that’s about it.

Many Siri changes happen on the server, with no client changes necessary, so they would not necessarily be announced in an OS release announcement.

Apps can let you assign custom commands in Siri now. Some examples here: https://www.cultofmac.com/576807/these-apps-just-got-an-ios-12-and-siri-shortcuts-overhaul/ https://www.cultofmac.com/576807/these-apps-just-got-an-ios-... Requiring you to record your own phrases has a big tradeoff in that all your apps don't get automatic Siri support across all of their features, but it avoids the homophone hijacking and discoverability problems that other voice assistants have run into. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2018/08/researchers-show-alexa-skill-squatting-could-hijack-voice-commands/ https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2018/08/resea...
