A


pple may have changed the
volume controls in iPadOS and
iOS 13 (go.macworld.com/13bt)
to be less in-your-face, but
that’s not the case with Siri. Summon
Apple’s assistant and it will still overtake
your entire screen and stay there until it’s


done thinking and doing whatever you
asked it to do, regardless of whether you
have a 4-inch iPhone SE or a 12.9-inch
iPad Pro.
That might change in a future update. As
MacRumors reports (go.macworld.com/
mcrm), Apple VP Craig Federighi responded

whole screen—but not for a while


Apple VP Craig Federighi told an iPad fan that his dream of an unobtrusive Siri interface
could happen, but not this year.
