Looks like a bunch of features are being removed due to "underutilization"

It’s no better with Siri.

An example:

“Hey Siri, play some Slayer on music”

“You’ll have to unlock your iPhone first”

Picks up phone to unlock with face unlock while driving so Siri will let me even use her.

“Hey siri play some slayer on Music”

“Sorry, there is no playlist called Slayer in your music library”

“Hey siri play some slayer from Apple Music”

“Okay, calling Sarah”

While I agree with you Siri is plain awful, have you tried just saying “hey siri play Slayer”?

When you say “play some slayer on music” it makes it sound like you’re asking to play a band called “slayer on music”. Which it doesn’t understand so it needs to look it up for context, which means you’ll need to unlock your phone for security.

I just tested it personally and it played Slayer just fine.

This is a more sensible answer than my anger making it work. I probably drop the some when I get agitated naturally.

Now try to get her to play last podcast on the left.
