Siri always says "I don't know the answer"

The Siri app for my 12 pro struggles to understand English or Spanish. Resident in the UK for 35 years and Spanish born.

I can assure Apple that I speak properly both languages but always the same “I don’t know the answer”.

I have tried unsuccessfully to enlist help from Tweeter @AppleSupport but to no avail.

Obviously my anger level has gone up few notches with Apple to the point that I have deleted from my phone all Apple apps that could generate any profit for Apple Inc.

I have silenced or closed all permissions from Silly (Siri) but I would love to delete it as you do with all the useless rubbish that clutters the phone memory even anything as small as a 1 kB of garbage.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hey there AnotherOneWithQuestions,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you’re having some issues with Siri on your iPhone. We’ll be happy to help. 


The reason this could be occurring is that Siri availability, features, and commands varies by language, and country and region. Take a look at this article to see which features are supported in your area:


iOS and iPadOS - Feature Availability - Apple


If that doesn’t help, reach out to Apple Support using the following link so they can continue to look further into this with you:

Take care.

Thank you again Less, that’s what I did after Apple support never offered any help despite insisting several times.

My only satisfaction was to delete all the Apple money making features making the phone a very average phone except for the camera but nothing to fire rockets either when the competition outweighs on everything including price.

Thank you
