Siri Users

The number of people who have access to Siri has obviously grown in recent years. In an October 2011 survey, just 2% of respondents had an iPhone 4S, which was the only device with Siri at the time. However, another 15% of respondents were definitely interested in such a feature, and 49% said they would consider it.

30% of those who have used Siri said they are very satisfied with it. 57% said they are somewhat satisfied with Siri. 9% said they are somewhat unsatisfied. And 4% said they are very unsatisfied. In the October 2011 survey, 78% were at least somewhat satisfied with Siri.

But Siri isn’t the only voice assistant available on smartphones today. 15% of those who do not have Siri said they own a different smartphone with a voice recognition assistant similar to Siri. And of those respondents, 19% said they are very satisfied with their current voice assistant. 42% said they are somewhat satisfied. 15% said they are somewhat unsatisfied. And no respondents said they are very unsatisfied. 23% of respondents who have other voice assistants on their smartphones said they never actually use those features.
