![]() ![]() Siri may not be as smart as it is during Apple Music sessions when it comes to answering questions or offering up alternatives, when using Spotify or other alternatives over AirPlay – but that's not to say Apple's digital assistant goes mute. It means no "Hey Siri, play Kanye West on Spotify" or "Hey Siri, wake me up at 7.30am with KEXP", as there is with Amazon's Echo speakers or Google's Home devices – both of which even let you set Spotify as a default ahead of their own in-house streaming services.
