The things a user is able to do with a locked iOS device are so useless and going away with new updates that I've given up. I don't think a different voice module does anything here if it gets the same $swearword 'direct access' Siri has now. For example: 1. Siri can run Shazam/Music Recognition on a locked phone, but has no Shortcut/Automation ability to copy over the song info to a native note, which is as simple as: 'Run Recognize Music; delay; Create note with $Title - $Artist in $Notebook; dismiss Siri; Stop.' If I try telling Siri to run this Shortcut, it asks me to unlock the phone. The Shortcut has 'Allow Running When Locked' set to ON. I guess Siri is limited in one of two ways: it is either unable to access Shortcuts or it can't run Music Recognition. The latter would be bonkers, since it can do that natively by me saying 'Shazam', and the former simply disrespects my settings and gives me no way of making it work. There used to be a workaround for this: you'd first enable Voice Control (an accessibility feature that's different from Siri, I guess), tell Siri to turn Voice Control on, call it out and tell it to run the Shortcut. It runs, but asks for a passcode as soon as it has to open the Notes app. Useless. 2. I can't start a voice recording without unlocking my phone, while I am able to launch the Camera app and start a video recording, which makes no sense to me. 3. I can't turn Location Services off without unlocking, which might be one of those instances where Apple thinks it knows better (i.e. the phone's stolen or I get kidnapped and the perpetrators can't turn location off as easily), but my default is having it off and using location only when I need it (e.g., navigating in an unfamiliar location, being lost, and... that's about it).
