iOS 11 will let you type queries to SiriTake that, Google Assistant.
One of iOS 11's many (many, many) unsung features from the "even more iOS features" slide during Apple's Monday keynote? An accessibility feature called "Type to Siri."
It's exactly what it sounds like: A textual interface where you can write your queries to Siri, rather than ask them. When iOS 11 comes out in the fall, users will be able to turn on "Type to Siri" in their accessibility settings, which will let you write your commands to Siri, rather than shout them into space.
As of now, Type to Siri is an accessibility feature: It's designed for folks who may not be able to speak their queries and need a keyboard (or other switch control-based device) to do so, and a huge boon for them, too.
But even those without need for accessibility features may love this feature — Google's Assistant offers both a text and type interface, allowing for quick and quiet answers to questions when a typical voice query won't do.
Apple occasionally off...
