Hmm, maybe that initial success was a fluke. It’s still spelling “something” like “some thing” most of the time.
Well that’s really interesting, resetting Hey Siri seems to have worked. I also powered down and restarted the phone, but I have a feeling it was the Siri thing…
(I always keep my iOS and apps updated, so I know it wasn’t that ;-)
Train Siri to spell a word differently? (Dictation)
