Apple promised Siri recording opt-in feature that is meant to let Apple has finally provided it users decide whether they want to give their audio recordings to improve the voice assistant. Back in early August, the Cupertino company promised to offer the opt-in feature following a public outcry over its "grading" programme for Siri.
The new feature is a part of the latest iOS 13.2 beta, which has been seeded to developers for initial testing. The new beta, which is the iOS 13.2 developer beta 2, also includes features such as the option to delete/ uninstall apps directly from the Haptic Touch menu on the Home screen and the ability to adjust video recording settings from the Camera app.
Earlier this year, Apple was caught employing third-party contractors to listen to recordings of human interactions with Siri to improve its experience. The company called the process the grading programme that it suspended in early August after receiving outrage. It also issued an apology and assured users that an opt-in feature would be provided to address privacy concerns.
"While we conduct a thorough review, we are suspending Siri grading globally. Additionally, as part of a future software update, users will have the ability to choose to participate in grading," the company had said in
