With the new operating system iOS 15, Apple focused on improving the Siri experience and in the interest of user privacy, the processing is done on the device rather than relying on its servers, and this helped Siri to do a number of actions without even having an Internet connection and here is everything you can do using Siri with iOS 15.
How does Siri work?
Although it may sound simple, understanding a voice command and translating it into an action on the iPhone takes a lot of processing. Before iOS 15, your Siri commands were sent to Apple, where its powerful servers could learn what you wanted and relay it to your device.
Over time, this process has become much faster but it still requires an internet connection for Siri to work and even if you just want to set a timer or toggle a setting on your device, Siri will need to have a web connection.
And with the new operating system iOS 15 that changed, and instead of processing Siri commands on Apple servers, your commands are now processed entirely on your iPhone and you might think it would be slow, but because of the power of Apple's neural engine, Siri provides the same level of speech recognition Like the company's servers without having to send your request outside the device over the Internet.
Apple states that on-device speech recognition and understanding of Siri improve over time as you use the device. Apple's voice assistant identifies the contacts you interact with the most, the words you use, and the topics you read about, and this personalization remains on your device only.
It is worth noting that the Google Assistant still needs the Internet, even for a simple request such as what time is it now or set a 5-minute timer.
Siri without internet
Because your Siri commands aren't transmitted over the Internet, the voice assistant can now handle many types of requests offline. Here's the official list of features Apple says Siri is able to do offline:
- Timers and Alarms
- Phone
- Messages
- Sharing
- Running apps
- Audio playback control
- Device Settings
Most of the features we just mentioned are pretty self-explanatory and for the device settings, Siri when not connected to the internet can work to switch between dark and normal modes, turn Low Power Mode on or off, turn Night Mode on or off, turn off Airplane mode and adjust various accessibility settings.
If the iPhone is not connected to a Wi-Fi network or package and you ask Siri something that requires an Internet connection, you will be greeted with a message saying, “To do this, you will need to be connected to the Internet.”

It works with me without the net and the experience is very excellent
Hi
All I wish for regarding Siri is to improve the Arabic language in it, because it is very bad, no one uses Siri in Arabic at all, and we have been in this state for nearly seven years without any update in pronunciation, even if slight, and in return, all languages speak except Arabia. I wish Apple was pressured by big tech influencers.
XR does not work without internet
Siri feature without internet does not work with IPHONE XS
There is a problem guys in the iOS 14 update
When you say, Siri, turn off the Wi-Fi, it says OK, but it cannot turn this off in recent updates, for example 14.8 and 1 Why?
The presence and absence of the feature is like some
For those who ask why the feature did not work because the Arabic language is not supported in the first place, I do not know why
Knowing that the subject is as easy as the translation application
If you switch to English, this will work, and God knows, I have an idea on iOS 14.8
Apple Zain and there are gaps that have not been addressed, such as taking a screenshot with the zoom lens.
Apple is running the turtle's path so far in Kuwait when shopping in stores I can't pay my purchases through my phone or through my watch and we are in 2021 and the world is progressing!?!?!?
Wonderful as we are used to from the wonderful Apple system and all the love and appreciation to the wonderful iPhone Islam team
