Q: iOS 9.3 Siri mispronouncing names/reading emojis?
I updated to 9.3 last night (and am now regretting it).
I use Siri frequently, and also have a unique, difficult to pronounce name. In my old iOS version, I had told Siri how to pronounce my name without issue. Now with the update, she is calling me the incorrect name (mispronouncing) as well as reading any emojis I have in the contacts name, whenever I ask her to call/text them. Example, my sister is in my phone as Lexi with the cat and dog emoji after her name, now Siri calls her 'Lexi Cat Face Dog Face". Also, when I tell Siri 'That's not how you say that', then tell her how to pronounce it. She gives me two options, but both of them are exactly the same, and both wrong. This was never an issue before, so what gives?
iPhone 6, iOS 9.3
