Changing Siri's Voice

10/1/2012

I started playing around with Siri again recently after I upgraded my iPhone 4s to Apple's new iOS 6.  There are still some kinks to be worked out but Siri is working a lot better these days.  You can now ask her about the score of the Yankees game, to send a Tweet or to give you directions.  
It's definitely fun to throw out some random questions and see what she comes back with.  It's more amusing than useful...but I have been asking her to remind me about appointments with a high rate of success!

I didn't think it was possible to change Siri's voice since Apple doesn't offer any official "themes" to mess around with but you can play around with the language settings for a little bit of fun.  Just go to Settings/General/Siri/Language.  There are a few English options there to try out and if you select English (United Kingdom) she switches to a male voice with a British accent.
