iOS 7 comes with a brand new set of Siri voices. Here in the US, there’s an updated female voice, as well as a new male voice included in the latest and greatest mobile operating system.
Did you know, though, that Siri is proud of her new voice? Well, just let him know that you like her new vocal apparatus, and you’ll see a few fun new easter eggs as answers.
Activate Siri the normal way, and then simply say, “I like your voice.” She’ll answer you with one of the following clever responses.
“Thank you. I think it’s too soon to try out for American Idol, but someday, Rob. Someday.”
“Why thank you, Rob. I did it all for you.”
“Glad you noticed, Rob. I hope you like my dulcet tones.”
“It’s kind of you to say, Rob. I was really hoping you’d like it.”
“Thanks! It’s nice not to sound like a coyote with bronchitis for a change.”
Those are the four responses I was able to see when I complemented Siri. What about you? Find any other ones? Let us know in the comments below.
Thanks, Max C.!

That would be “compliment”.
“It’s nice not to sound like a coyote with bronchitis for a change”
Yeah, i dunno what was wrong with me this morning. :) Updated.
Ooh, thanks! Added it in!
Typical. All I got was: Would you like me to search the web for ‘I lick your vase’? I wouldn’t mind so much but I’m a voice artist with a British accent. However, I have to do a horrible Texan drawl before she understands me.
“Thank you. I think it’s too soon to try out for American Idol, but someday, Douglas. Someday.”
