Siri is coming to additional iDevices this fall, and it brings along new abilities and language support, Apple has confirmed. Best of all, it even launches apps when you tell it to.
Siri is shaping up to become the real personal assistant Apple envisioned last year with the debut of the iPhone 4S. In iOS 6, the digital assistant understands more languages, works in more countries, and is available on the new iPad with Retina display, “so you can get more things done in more places around the world.” It’ll do things like tell you what movies are playing at the cinema, or who won the football game last night, or even book you a table for two. “Want to know the latest scores and stats for your favorite teams and players? Thanks to iOS 6, Siri knows the answers. Or maybe it’s movie night. Siri can show you the latest reviews and showtimes. Find the best restaurants in town and make reservations,” Apple states. It’ll be a blast to open applications with Siri, especially when you’re driving. According to reports, several car manufacturers have already agreed to install a Siri button on their car’s steering wheels. Mind-bending stuff!
“With iOS 6, you can ask Siri to open apps for you. If you arrive early at the cafe Siri helped you find, just ask to play Angry Birds so you can kill time while you wait. Or ask Siri to launch Facebook and see what your friends are up to, or take a look at the latest posts on your Wall,” according to the Cupertino giant. Apple says Siri will be available only on iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd generation) this fall, but we have a feeling there will be a third device supporting the personal assistant – the iPhone 5.
