Can’t get Siri to announce calendar events or reminders

I’ve turned on options for Siri to announce calendar events and reminders on my iPhone, but she doesn’t announce them. I’ve tried with time sensitive on and off. I’ve tried with the phone locked and unlocked. I’m getting notices on my screen w sound, but no announcement is read. Please help!

Hello reebs26,

Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities. 


Please try the following troubleshooting steps before attempting to have Siri announce more notifications: 


  1. Restart your iPhone.
  2. Update your iPhone or iPad.
  3. Check that your device is not connecting with a Bluetooth audio device in Settings > Bluetooth. 
  4. Turn on Set Automatically in Settings > General > Date & Time. 


If you continue to notice this issue, please contact Apple Support directly for more help.  

Have a great day!
