Apple Beta Releases

So Siri seems to work during phone calls now. I have the latest AirPods Pro second generation beta firmwareinstalled with iOS 17 beta and I was able to have Siri tell me the time, send text messages, open apps, do searches, and general questions.

Share Your Bug Reports with AppleVis

If you experience a bug in Apple Beta Software, the most important thing you can do is to file a report in Feedback Assistant. Please do not assume that Apple is already aware of a bug or that your report won't make a difference; your report may provide crucial information, and submitting bug reports directly to Apple helps them reproduce and resolve the issue faster. The more reports they receive, the higher the priority Apple is likely to give to fixing the bug.

If you are using beta software, please use the Feedback Assistant on your device to submit feedback and bug reports. If you are using a public release, this blog post explains how to report the issue and what information to include.

In 2025, AppleVis launched the Community Bug Reporting Program with the goal of improving the quality and quantity of information we share with the community about bugs in Apple software releases. If you would like to contribute to this effort, please submit your reports via our Community Bug Report Form.

All reports shared with AppleVis must first be filed with Apple via Feedback Assistant. More information about the Community Bug Program is available here.

I don't use Siri much except for convenience, but there have been times when I wished I could use Siri on a phone call, and I have tried to walk others through procedures only to realize I couldn't ask them to use Siri to open the app we were working on.

I have no issues with iOS 16.5. Using Airpod pro. I can ask her to reply to message, set timer and ask for the weather, send voice message and text.
