Siri broken since 14.5 update

Ever since the update Siri stops talking mid-sentence or sometimes doesn't seem to respond verbally at all. I've reset the phone, but it didn't help.

I was instructed by Apple support to use a Mac computer or iTunes on Windows to reset the phone. That downloads a fresh copy of the latest iOS to put on the phone (instead of updating what was already there, and probably corrupted). So far Siri’s been working fine.


Make sure you make a backup of the phone before doing this as everything will be wiped off it.
