Siri respondes to another person

Hi,


when I or someone else say Hey Siri, each device (iOS 13.5) at home respondes - mine and girlfriends. I have tried everything: restarting Siri settings, factory settings, new Apple ID... Nothing works.


It´s highly annoying. Please help.



iPhone SE, iOS 13

Siri does not recognise voices. Even if you keep your iPhone near a TV it will fetch sound and voices from TV and respond with what ever it interprets.


Siri was never designed on an iPhone for recognising voices. When you enable "Hey Sir " it may ask you to say few words and phrases just to understand you better but never to recognise your voice.


Siri uses speech recognition and not voice recognition
