For most of its life, Siri could barely set timers reliably. Now, in iOS 27, I can’t trip it up. https://t.co/gl6eSsz8Ue

Forcing users to choose how legible they want UI controls to be is wild. Apple's designers should obsess over where this setting belongs and make it the default. macOS/iOS have always been opinionated about these kinds of things. An abstract UI legibility slider is not the way. https://t.co/OBgmghEcOs

The new Siri in iOS 27 is incredible—it works almost flawlessly with even ridiculously complex asks. Well worth the two years of waiting while Apple figured it out. Almost no notes. Both the design and functionality are as good as I could have hoped for.
