Siri used to be somewhat useless as a personal assistant. When she first arrived on the iPhone, she was able to make appointments, call friends, and set reminders, but it has taken a few years for her to get good at her job. Now, Siri can be male or female, can open Google Maps for you, can direct you to buy movie tickets, and has access to your emails messages and can even dictate responses for you.
Siri also has access to Twitter so you can see what is trending or check your friends’ feed without having to open the app. We’ve got a short tutorial for how to access Twitter from your virtual personal assistant.
It is incredibly easy for you to access Twitter from Siri. You just have to follow a few steps to get started.

First, you must integrate Twitter with your iPad. To do so, go to your Settings app and select Twitter from the sidebar. Then, enter your username and password. If you don’t have the official app installed, you can do so from the Settings app. After adding Twitter to iOS, you can select Siri from the available apps that you would like to allow to use your account.
If you’ve already connected Twitter to your iPad, but have never tried to access it from Siri, you don’t even have to open the Settings app to activate the feature. Simply ask Siri to tell you something about Twitter and you will automatically be asked to allow Siri to access your Twitter feed. When you tap “yes,” you will automatically connect Siri to Twitter.

Then, ask Siri something like, “What is trending on Twitter,” or “What is Padgadget saying on Twitter” and she will connect you with those tweets.
Unfortunately, you still can’t get Siri to show you your personal Twitter feed or mentions, but she will check Twitter direct messages for you.
Don’t forget to send Siri a bouquet of flowers on National Administrative Assistant day so she (or he) doesn’t feel unappreciated for all her hard work.
