Hello,
When I tap the microphone icon to dictate a small microphone with an x pops up. When I try to use Siri it responds but then isn’t able to complete my request. Can’t use Siri to send a text, find directions, etc.
We appreciate the update, upsgal9.
From here, we'd recommend reaching out to Apple for additional assistance if the steps above didn't help. You can reach them using: Apple Support They'd be the best hands possible to assist moving forward.
Have a lovely weekend!
