How to Clear your Siri History

Do you want to delete your Siri request history? This article explains how you can remove all of your history consisting of records of your conversations that Siri keeps. Apple has recently introduced this new feature that enables users to delete all of the recordings from Apple servers that Siri collects.

You can use Siri on all your Apple devices. Upon receiving your request, Siri sends it to Apple (this is why Siri requires an Internet connection to work). Apple processes your request. Siri receives a response from Apple. And then Siri performs the action or answers your question. Apple servers store your interactions with Siri. Apple may use this to improve Siri. You may not delete all of this data.

If Siri is not working, see this article.
