The article discusses the reluctance of iPhone users, including myself, to use Siri in public due to privacy concerns and social awkwardness. However, with the upcoming iOS 18 update for iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, users will no longer have to speak to Siri. Instead, they can type their requests using a keyboard on the screen. This update, announced during Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference, marks a significant improvement for Siri, making the virtual assistant more accessible and proactive. By allowing users to type instead of speak, Siri could become a more versatile tool for answering questions and navigating the device. Additionally, AirPods Pro users will be able to interact with Siri through nods or head shakes. Overall, this shift to text-based interaction could transform Siri into the personal search engine many users have been waiting for.
