Siri Learn’s New Tricks
It's been a while since Siri was announced and released for the iPhone 4. That is, it is possible that for some completely, the "OL girl has lost its charm and mysticism. Heck, maybe the novelty, even disappeared for some. However, if you her old love with her sensual personal assistant, what better way then to learn some new tricks kind of. (Not that kind of stuff, get your mind out of the iGutter) Luckily for us, a large number of developers have worked hard over the past year to give Siri some fresh talent and a bit of renovation. Here is a list of some great mods that give Siri new life.
SiriToggles (Free, BigBoss)
SiriToggles is a Siri tweak that adds improvement to commands to move or adjust certain parameters of the system ("enable wireless", for example), the brightness check ("The Game of the brightness to 50%"), the battery state of charge ("like how much battery do I have left? ") and launch applications and third values (" Launch settings ").
Assistant Extensions (Free, BigBoss)
Assistant Extensions is a plug-in architecture of Siri. It is a Cydia tweak that provides developers with a platform to expand the capabilities of Siri third party plugins. However, it comes with some built-in plug-ins themselves. These include a chat bot (to activate the "Let's talk") upon actuation of, making it more receptive than usual to casual chitchat for Siri.
PersistentAssistant (Free, BigBoss)
This is one of our favorites, this Cydia tweak eliminates the need for you to press the Siri button after each question in turn, effectively virtual assistant hands free! It is installed with PersistentAssistant, simply call Siri once, after the press continue to ask questions without the Siri icon and you can ask again and again.
Sireet (Free, ModMyi)
This mod is a must for all the tweeters out there. With Sireet you can dictate your tweets easy by saying, "Tweet" of super valuable information, which is currently done with the world and Siri share the rest followed. For the price of free this is an obvious choice.
TweetLine (Free, ModMyi)
Tweeters can also use Siri in their Twitter events that will help you pull the last 5 tweets from your Twitter timeline every time you say the magic words ... "Timeline".
Lingual (Free, BigBoss)
Can translate out of the box Siri a word at a time, but it will not do you much good if you are in Paris to try to get those nice French ladies. Assistant Extensions Lingual is a free add-on that allows you to use Siri to translate English sentences into more than 30 languages. The operation is simple, launch Siri and simply speak: "This is a sentence which is translated into the language" and Siri will display the translation and the original sentence. You need to have installed the mod mentioned Assistant Extensions.
Custom Siri Background (Free, ModMyi)
Want a makeover Siri? Custom Siri Background is a tweak that is simply cosmetic that you can replace the default Siri texture gray background with an image of your choice. From the inside, you can tweak the settings add a new photo or import one from your library. I've always thought my beloved Siri look like Megan Fox :)
We hope you find some of these mods helpful Siri, and find new ways to enjoy the company of this personal assistant. Write us in the comments and tell us how to improve relations with Siri and with big changes we have lost, help us!
