What is Apple SiriKit?

SiriKit is Apple's framework for developers to integrate voice control and natural language processing into their apps. It allows users to interact with applications through Siri, Apple's voice assistant, without opening the app directly. Developers can enable voice commands for common tasks like scheduling appointments, ordering food, checking reservations, and discovering local businesses. This is particularly useful for apps where hands-free interaction improves user experience, such as ride-sharing, food delivery, and travel applications. SiriKit works across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, and HomePod, giving developers access to Apple's installed user base.
