The New Apple iphone 4s–Complete Guide

The dual-core A5 chip delivers even more power. The 8MP camera with all-new optics also shoots 1080p HD video. And with Siri, iPhone 4S does what you ask. Talk about amazing.

Siri. The intelligent assistant that helps you get
things done. All you have to do is ask.

Now you can use your voice to use your iPhone. Just talk to Siri as you would to a person: “Do I need an umbrella?” or “Any great burgers around here?” or “Where’s the closest ATM?” Siri not only understands what you say, it knows what you mean. It figures out the right apps to use to find the right answer. Then, just like a personal assistant, it answers you. Siri makes phone calls, sends messages, schedules meetings, sets reminders, and more. How much more? Just ask, and Siri tells you that, too.

Ask for a reminder.

You can say “Remind me to call Mom when I get home” and Siri sets a reminder for you.

Ask to send a text.

Say something like “Tell Bronwyn I’m running late.” Siri writes and sends the text.

Ask about the weather.

If you ask “Do I need an umbrella?” Siri gives you the forecast for where you are.

Ask for information.

Ask “Where's the best pizza place?” or “Where's an ATM?” and Siri finds a few nearby.

Ask to set a meeting.

You can tell Siri “Meet Kristen for lunch at noon” and Siri puts it on your calendar.

Ask to send an email.

If you say “Email Sandy: Can you send me those photos?” Siri writes and sends the email.

Ask for a number.

Tell Siri “Look up Kyle's number” and Siri finds it for you in your contacts.

Ask to set an alarm.

“Set an alarm for 6 a.m.” is all you need to say. Siri sets as many alarms as you need.

Ask for directions.

Ask something like “Where's Apple?” and Siri tells you the address and how to get there.

Ask about your stocks.

"How's Apple stock?" is one way to say it. Siri keeps you up to date.

Ask to set the timer.

Say “Set the timer for 10 minutes” and Siri starts keeping time.

Ask Siri about Siri.

Ask “What can you do?” and Siri tells you everything you need to know.
