I have a new apple watch 12. I have an iphone 15 pro. Both are completely updated. I am having trouble using my watch to access Siri. When I speak directly into the watch, the Siri icon begins to appear, and then it disappears. Sometimes my phone, which is many feet away, picks up my request. But often, Siri just stops and nothing happens. So annoying. Are others having this problem? What can be done?
I suggest that for now, you disable Siri AI, which technically is not yet formally released but rather is in a beta stage. In that beta stage, it is not completely ready for prime time. I have been using my Apple Watch for workouts (Outdoors Cycling and Outdoors Walk) for about a year and usually use Siri on the watch to end workouts, pause workouts, send text messages, etc. However after activating Siri AI beta, using Siri on the watch became inconsistent, sometimes working, sometimes not. The watch is connected to cellular and to WiFi (when available). First I disabled Siri AI beta and then activated Siri (non-beta) and the voice commands started working as expected again. You could try this yourself and see if it helps (we could have been experiencing different issues but it is worth trying, others have reported oddities with the new Siri AI beta in other posts).
