I guess I’m in the minority as Siri and Apple Maps works fine for me. I use both on a daily basis and for the most part they just work. Yes, Siri will sometimes miss a word I’ve spoken for a text message and there is great room for improvement, but overall I find them both to be useful tools. I use Siri for text messages, both reading and creating and she’s spot on as long as there is a good cell connection. When she becomes unresponsive, I usually find my cell signal is also gone. So adding the capability built into the iPhone would be greatly appreciated. Love the new look on Maps and in the last 2 years have never had a problem with bad directions. 

A long way from the ideal world of a HAL 9000 or Jarvis, but in my opinion, still useful tools. Cheers

I had really crappy service at my home using AT&T, 1-2 bars max, couldn't even talk while inside my house, had to go outside. I decided to switch to Verizon since they assured me that their network coverage was vastly superior. Turns out it is the same crappy connection. Mind you I'm in the center of LA county, one of the largest cities in the world. I wish these providers would invest more on putting up towers. 5G will mean nothing to me if I can't get a signal.

I totally agree with what you’ve said volcan. Here’s a good one for you... 4 blocks from Apples infinite loop buildings AT&T gives you 1 bar outside and no bars inside. The “heart” of the Silicon Valley and no signal. Between the phone companies lack of towers and the cities not wanting to add towers and the nimby’s “we don’t want them here”, I’m not sure that there will ever be a time when we all get good coverage.
