SIRI, little by little, it is improving in terms of its foray into third-party apps and the most used messaging application in the world, it has been another application that has added a new function so that the virtual assistant of APPLE can, in this case, be able to read messages from Whatsapp.
In September 2016 SIRI released its integration with Whatsapp. This allowed us, among other things, to order it to send a message Whatsapp to the contact that we wanted. Simply activating SIRI and giving it the command "Send WhatsApp to (contact name)", it allowed us to dictate the message we wanted to send to that person, without having to open the application and type the same .
Thanks to this function, sending messages through this app is much faster and more productive. It saves a lot of time.
Now with the possibility that SIRI can read messages from Whatsapp,the circle is closed. Apart from sending, we can also listen to received messages.
SIRI CAN'T READ WHATSAPP MESSAGES? SOLUTION:
So that our virtual assistant can read the Whatsapp, we must have installed iOS 10.3.1 or higher.
Simply by giving the command « Read me the last WhatsApp received «, Siri should read them, if we have some unread.
We warn you that since the implementation of this novelty is so recent, it may cause errors.
It took us a bit to get it to read our messages, but we recommend that after updating to the latest version of the app, you close the app and open it again. From then on, when you receive a new message, give the order to read messages from Whatsapp and it should work. If it doesn't, please wait a few hours for the feature to fully set with Siri.
OTHER WHATSAPP 2.17.20 IMPROVEMENTS:
The application has also received visual improvements in the menus of calls, groups and contacts.
Icons have been added to all available options and the contact or group photo has been enlarged.
Another improvement can be found on the « My Status » screen. Now we will be able to select, resend or delete several statuses, our own, at the same time.
Without more, these have been the news of the new version 2.17.20 of WhatsApp.
Greetings.
