    "in the US" :(

    We also still are waiting, for 10+ years for Siri in european languages. We have a lot of users e.g. in Poland, we can dictate in polish, but Siri still can't call a contact, because she doesn't understand names...

      Tip: you can add a 'Phonetic' name to a contact, and Siri will try to use it.

      So you can do stuff like:

      Mieczysława -> Mee-etchiss-wahva Krzysztof -> Kzhyshtof Świętopełk -> Shvee-entoh-pehwk

      It's still a bit hit and miss, but works quite well with diminutives:

      Mieczysława -> Mietka -> Mee-etka Krzysztof -> Krzysz -> Kzhysh Świętopełk -> Świętuś -> Shvientush

    Not a drop in the bucket. A drop in the ocean

    There are about 150.7 million active iPhones in thr US

    So, you are getting $1.66 back.

      People who submit qualifying claims can receive $25 for each eligible device, “which may decrease or increase up to $95 per device, depending on claim volume and other factors,”
