I like Siri too, and will use your tip. Hey, it's always nice to have somebody around to talk to (Siri) besides just the doggies. The only prob I have with Siri is when I dictate a text and say a Hawaiian word..... well you can only guess how much fun Siri has with spelling on those.

I haven't implemented the Health app, but can see doing that in the future.

But I like the slightly bigger display, LOVE the new camera toys -- slow mo and time lapse. I haven't experimented a lot with it, but I like that the health app tracks my activity even without setting it.

I've had my ipad powered down since I got it, so I didn't know about the phone feature on that! Thanks for the tip!

I found one cool thing out yesterday. If the iphone is plugged into a power device, you don't even have to press "on" to activate Siri. Just say "Hey, Siri" and she'll come on and ask what you need. I have it plugged into one of those portable batteries a lot of the time, so I just say "Hey, Siri, call Kelly" or "Hey, Siri, play Beatles" and I don't even have to touch the phone!

Did I say I love it?

Oh, almost forgot. I discovered I could order the phone from AT&T any time in the last month of my contract. So even thought my contract expired yesterday, I've had the phone for a week and a half!
I'm glad you all got your phones and you love them! I haven't updated my iPad to iOS 8 yet but I really need to do that soon.
I have been so busy with life lately that I haven't had time to play around with Siri or anything else much.
Y'all need to post your fav new features. I'm sure I will never discover them otherwise.
