Although Siri has been part of iOS for a number of years, it was not until the introduction of iOS 10 that some of the power of Siri has been made available to app developers through SiriKit. Though far from providing full access to the capabilities of Siri, SiriKit does allow certain areas of application functionality to be initiated through the Siri interface. An app designed to send messages, for example, may be integrated into Siri to allow messages to be composed and sent using voice commands. Similarly, a time management app might use SiriKit to allow entries to be made in the Reminders app. | Although Siri has been part of iOS for a number of years, it was not until the introduction of iOS 10 that some of the power of Siri has been made available to app developers through SiriKit.
