I don't like the new Siri music "default" behavior

I find the new Siri “selection” feature for music services to be frustrating. I use Dark Noise at night to sleep or when I’m writing to aid in my concentration. After using Dark Noise, when I get in the car and tell Siri to play “x”, I’m told that she can’t play that in Dark Noise so I have to start prefacing my command with "In Apple Music play “x”. This is a new feature that is a step backward. Just give me a toggle to select my default music player which is always used unless I explicitly ask for something to be played in other service and then reverts back to the default.

For me, that qualifies as a “rant.” :slight_smile:

I use the same feature on my daily run. However, I say, “Siri, move forward two minutes.“ That still seems to be working fine for me.

Even with the addition command if you can eventually get Siri to play the right song I’d consider that a win.

IMO, asking Siri to play a song is like pressing the buttons on a jukebox while blindfolded.

Same. It’s irritating enough that I’m contemplating deleting dark noise
