Siri's functionality is fine for me, it just seems to really struggle to understand me compared to Google

Already tried to use apple's siri and I can't remember even once it answered a question properly.

Is this why Siri has worse performance compared to others?

Siri misunderstands me so frequently, I've learned to not use it for most of the above things.

What about a much, much better Siri?

Doesn't this assume you don't use Siri for anything personal?

You don't need to use Siri. I have Siri turned off.

Siri can answer questions just fine. It's the "doing stuff" that introduces complications
