Siri Understands Accents ⇥

MG Siegler

Siri didn’t work for me when UK English was turned on. When I switched to US English, it worked perfectly.

This is very cool, except I prefer to keep my phone in British English. This is because iOS does not have an option for Canadian English, and it attempts to “correct” my spellings of colour, neighbour and centre when set to English. Therefore, I would either have to create keyboard shortcuts for every -or and -er word in English mode, or dictate to Siri with a (poor) British accent.
