Apple has launched a “secret” app to try and improve Siri’s virtual assistant

Apple quietly added a new Siri app in August to the official iOS Content Store. In fact, a new app has arrived in the App Store in order to improve Siri’s virtual assistant’s speech and collect feedback from it.

Users who want to install the Siri Speech Study app will have to wait for an invitation from Apple. Only in this way will they be able to help the American company improve the performance, functionality and practical benefit of its virtual assistant.

Siri Speech Study is Apple’s secret app for iOS

Siri is Apple’s virtual assistant, has been on iPhone smartphones and iPad tablets for several years. However, Siri Assistant is still unable to recognize some basic voice commands, among other seemingly simple tasks.

Given this scenario, Apple will now take a proactive stance, wanting to improve its Siri. This is the first report provided by the publication. Take Crunch Which deals with the development of the Siri Speech Study app.

Siri Speech Study app has been introduced to collect more data and feedback from users in order to enhance their capabilities. However, at the moment, only a limited number of users can help Apple with this task.

The app was first discovered by Sensor Tower agency, after it hit the App Store on August 9. For interested users, it is possible to access your list in many countries, but it will not appear in one of the search results.

When I call the post Take CrunchHowever, Apple said that only guest users will be able to use it. So if they get an invitation from Apple — an essential link to the App Store — they can help make Siri better.

Only by invitation can they help Apple

You will then be able to enter the app after agreeing to the terms of use, filling in your Apple ID and following the onscreen instructions. You can then start providing feedback directly to the Cupertino giant.

The technology will have access to the history of requests made to Siri as well as the rating (comments) entered by the user. If Siri misses a command or response, Apple will know what to do to improve the usefulness of this assistant.

In short, we hope that this application will help the company to improve its virtual assistant. Siri lags significantly behind Amazon’s Alexa as well as Google Assistant in its user tool.
