Synopsis:

Find out what Siri's got up her sleeve with this fun and friendly guide!

Who couldn't use a little extra help these days? Answers, information, reminders, and all sorts of additional help are only a verbal query away with Siri, the artificial intelligence personal assistant. Siri made her debut with the iPhone 4 and is now updated for iOS 6 as well as the third-generation iPad and she is ready to assist! This easy-to-understand guide walks you through the vast array of capabilities that Siri boasts, from creating texts and e-mails from dictation to getting directions to finding a restaurant in the area. You'll discover how to check the weather, get sports scores and schedules, look up a movie review, get Facebook and Twitter updates, make dinner reservations, and much more.

• Explains how to finesse the perfectly worded questions for Siri in order to get the most helpful and accurate answers
• Details how to have Siri make phone calls for you, look up information in a dictionary or on the web, or get music
• Walks you through using Siri to get stock quotes or enter numbers into a calculator and get an answer
• Shows you how to use Siri to set reminders and alarms, take notes, get turn-by-turn driving directions, and more

Just like Siri, the straightforward-but-fun Siri For Dummies is here to help you!
