What is the name of Apple's voice assistant?

Apple’s voice assistant is named Siri.

Siri began as a project associated with SRI International’s Artificial Intelligence Center and was first released as a standalone iOS app in February 2010. Apple acquired Siri in April 2010 and integrated the technology into the iPhone 4S, which launched on October 4, 2011. This made Siri one of the first widely recognized voice assistants built directly into a mainstream smartphone.

Siri can answer questions, set reminders, send messages, make calls, provide directions, control device settings, and interact with supported apps. Apple has extended it across products including the iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, HomePod, AirPods, and Apple Vision Pro.

Siri is often confused with competing assistants because all perform similar tasks. Google Assistant belongs to Google, Alexa belongs to Amazon, and Cortana was developed by Microsoft. Siri’s identity is tied specifically to Apple’s operating systems and hardware ecosystem.
