Siri and dictation not working
Since last upgrade Siri and dictation are not working.
Tried everything so please don’t suggest settings and switch off device
I am annoyed because I need it for notes and now I’m scrounging for alternatives.

If you continue to have issues, please Contact Apple Support .Check your microphones
If Siri doesn't hear you correctly or doesn’t respond when you ask a question, make sure your microphones are working:
- On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, remove screen protectors, films, or cases that cover the microphones, then ask Siri a question. If Siri doesn't respond, connect a headset with a microphone, like EarPods or AirPods, then ask Siri a question and see if Siri responds.
- On your Mac, go to Apple () menu > System Preferences > Sound > Input and select a mic and check the input levels.
If Siri still doesn't work, contact Apple Support.
Take care.
