Why Can't Siri Get Basic Commands Right on watchOS 11.1?

The actual time was 5:26 AM.

Siri got it right on my iPhone.
Google answered correctly with a simple search.
My Alexa also got it right when I asked.

It seems like the Apple Watch is the only one that keeps messing it up.

Yes, and Apple keeps ignoring how useless Siri is on the Apple Watch. You can’t even ask it basic questions while walking, like “what’s my pace?” or “what’s my current distance?” or “how long have I been walking/running?” This is especially frustrating in winter when you can’t check your watch easily.

Yeah, it’s wild how bad Siri is with simple questions. And whatever you do, don’t ask it to change a setting or anything.

I mostly use it for commands instead of questions.
Like,
“Set timer for 10 minutes.”
“Start workout run outdoors.”

I just tried it. It’s 1:52 PM, and Siri on my AW10 told me it’s tomorrow at 5:52 AM.

Mine gets it right. What time does your Apple Watch think it is?

It showed the same time as my laptop: 1:26 PM at that moment. I tried again an hour later, and it’s still wrong. Not sure what kind of math it’s doing, lol.

@Madden
Mine is usually correct for this task. Siri can be strange :woman_shrugging:.
