Solution

Apple is opening up Siri for third party app developers. It's rolling out slowly in which areas Siri could be used. This to ensure the quality. Every iOS major release Apple adds categories where Siri could be used by third party apps.

Siri works in these categories

iOS 11:

  • To-do lists
  • Notes
  • Reminders
  • Banking for account transfers and balances
  • Apps that display QR codes.

iOS 10:

  • Audio or video calling
  • Messaging
  • Payments
  • Searching photos
  • Workouts
  • Ride booking
