Research shows what Siri is used for

March 26, 2012

A consulting group called Parks Associates surveyed 482 owners of the iPhone 4S to see what people are using Siri for.

According to the survey most users are taking advantage of Siri only for basic things. The most popular activities are making phone calls and sending text messages. According to the Wall Street Journal this is a sign that Siri usage mirrors how people commonly use their phones, which makes sense. The research shows other uses are growing with 32% of iPhone 4S users taking advantage of Siri to play music and 35% using Siri to schedule meetings.
