Siri can now answer health and fitness questions using data from the Health app as of iOS 17.2. For example, if you have a connected monitor, you can inquire about your previous night’s sleep, the status of shutting your Activity rings for the day, or your blood glucose level.
The new Siri health functions are also available on Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra (2nd gen) models running watchOS 10.2. However, Siri’s access to health data on the Apple Watch is limited to the last week or so.
Here are some health-related questions you can ask Siri:
- What’s my heart rate?
- What’s my blood oxygen level
- What’s my average walking pace?
- How is my Move ring doing today?
- How many steps have I taken this week?
- How many calories have I burned today?
