Curious, did you try? I have Siri but am too uninformed how to use it!


Yes, with no luck.

i bet asking siri for a cache will result in locations of ATMs. Perhaps asking for geocaches?

Tried using "geocache" also, no luck.

I bet you can do that using a Shortcut (at least will start the app)... will give it a try when I can. :)

Tried to create a shortcut but as noted all I could come up with was a way to start the app.

There is a "widget" available on the iPhone for nearby geocaches, which uses your current location.  I am not sure if Siri can hook into it, but it is worth pursuing since it's independent of opening the App.

I have used the widget.

 

I trying to figure out a way to "hey Siri" and have the phone display a map to the nearest app, even better would be if I could then ask for directions to the cache and have Siri direct me to them so that I can drive without having to try to read a map while driving.
