I just don't turn it on and so never use it.
- walterbell 3y agoPer the article, you are still using "Siri" (non-voice features), even if you never enabled Siri-for-voice: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39928357 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39928357

- lancesells 3y agoSame here. I do think it makes some sense in that case.
- diggan 3y agoI'm also in the situation where I use Siri for nothing, but I want to use CarPlay. I don't use the voice control for anything, in the car or otherwise. How does it make sense to force me to have Siri enabled?
- kemayo 3y agoThere's a bunch of parts of CarPlay which assume you can use Siri. Interacting with notifications, sending / responding-to messages, searching for things in maps, etc. Apple could disable everything that would kick itself out to a Siri-interaction for input, but that'd probably feel confusingly-broken.
