More of my adventures in technology!

I turned on the voice-activated “hey siri” option on my phone, which has mostly just made me paranoid about saying the phrase “hey siri.” However, it is also super useful for setting timers when your hands are dirty.

[For example, I have yet to get out of the habit of doing food prep and then putting whatever it is in the oven/toaster/stovetop — then realizing I want to wash my hands before I put them all over my phone, and then forgetting how much time has passed by the time I’m done.]

[Siri will set alarms too, either by a “set an alarm for 30 minutes” or a “set an alarm for 8:30 am.” The timer will give you the countdown on the screen, but the alarm can be set to play a song, so it’s really a toss-up.]
