Siri not accessing health data.

Iphone 16 pro max with Ios27; watch ultra2 with watchos 27.

With ios26 and watchos26 and earlier, I was able to ask Siri to provide my step count during the course of the day, including when walking.

With iOS and watchOS 27, Siri cannot access my health nor fitness data, instead telling I have to check th two apps myself.

I've spoken with Apple support and after verifying that my permissions and settings were correct, I was told that Siri is still learning and eventually Siri would be able to provide the data I requested. This response seems bogus to me.

Is anyone else having this or similar issues? Any suggestions on what I can try next, or will the issue be resolved by the new watch ultra 4 and iPhone 18 pro max that is on order?

Thanks.

Yes:

❌ 3. How many steps did I take last week? (Says, “Would you like me to open the Health app so you can check there?” Unfortunately, the Health app is not yet Siri-fied.) [Source]

With iOS 26 and watchOS 26, Siri can never read my step count.

After updating to iOS 27 and watchOS 27, Siri AI was able to show me my step count for 1 time, which it was in airplane mode, and my iPhone is not around.

Siri AI cannot get my step count again after that 1 time, no matter how the connections are.😕
