The feedback I just submitted to Apple about Siri's obnoxious nighttime responses
Siri’s spoken responses like “OKAY” after turning off lights are often unnecessary and disruptive—especially at night. I know the lights have turned off; I can see it. But Siri insists on announcing it anyway, even when it’s late and the room is dark. And she DOESN’T do this in the the day!
There is currently no way to suppress this behavior on HomePod. “Sound When Using Siri” only disables the activation chime—not the spoken confirmation itself. I’ve tried lowering Siri’s volume manually, but that affects everything else too.
Please consider adding a setting to:
- Disable verbal confirmations for HomeKit commands
- Or at least suppress them automatically during late hours (e.g., based on Night Shift, Sleep Focus, or time of day)
