Is Google better than Siri?
Definitely yes! Apples Siri was designed to revolutionise the way we communicate with our devices. But we have been let down. Siri can be unreliable at times. You might get witty and delightful answers at times, but those times are quite rare. Much of it can be pinned down to the fact that Apple doesn’t want to invade our privacy. While Google now collects our location data, habits, preferences and just about everything. If all this not a huge concern to you, then Google is the best.
Google’s voice interface is much faster, reliable and superior to its competitors.
Its creators spend a lot of time on making the voice search fast. So, as you speak, your questions are being decoded. And as soon as you are done, you get a correct answer.
Also, Siri relies on Wolfram Alpha for its answers whereas Google relies on a vast database to search for answers. Due to its dynamic nature and colossal search base, you get a correct answer every time.
Siri is only available on Apple; However, Google’s assistant “Ok Google” is available on iOS, Android and Chrome browser as well.
