Any way to change Siri's default Reminder time?

For instance, if I say, "call my mom tomorrow" it will always default to 9am. Is there anyway to change that default time?

Thats not an answer to the question asked. The question asked was "can we change the default" for what happens when we only specify "tomorrow". The questoin was not "how do I get a reminder at a specific time".


So it appears the answer is "NO". This should be a "setting" for "siri" (default time if no time is given in request).


If I say "remind me tomorrow morning" I get 7am. If I say "remind me tomorrow" I get 9am. So there are some internally hard-coded times assocated with general terms like "tomorrow" "tomorrow morning" and likely others like "afternoon", "evening" and so on.

Why should I. The question I had is the same one asked, and the one answer given is not relevant to the question. Thats what I was pointing out, along with what I think is a more vaible quesiton.


Its a public forum, for the benefit of all readers, not just the original poster, because web searches lead folks here. So leaving a bady answered question just standing as is because it was posted a few years ago is both silly and a disservice to readers. If we should not respond to old posts, the the website should delete old threads out of existence.

This is NOT hijacking the thread, because it's actually the exact same question. Thread hijacking is when you try to change the focus of a thread, either by moving to a related but distinct topic, or to an excessively narrow aspect of the original topic.


What makes fora like this a public resource is that if other people have the same question, they can hopefully see it answered. The nature of the question is inherent to the question, not the OP's psychology. While we generally give deference to the OP as the default arbiter of when the question is addressed, in this case, he didn't even confirm that the first answer was satisfactory.

Pogster. Minok is doing the opposite of hijacking the thread. In fact he is helping to keep it on topic by pointing out the nature of the original question, which was obviously misinterpreted by someone else.


At this point, you and I are hijacking the thread more than anyone else. And yeah I realize how old this post is. I don't care. It's too frustrating to see forum justice warriors doing their jobs wrong.
