The company said Wednesday that its mobile devices will ask users to pick from a range of voices when they set up the virtual assistant.
Apple currently allows users to pick between a male and female voice as well as six different accents including American, British, Indian and Irish, but defaults to a female voice for US devices.
Apple (AAPL) also said it will add two new voices to Siri.
“We’re excited to introduce two new Siri voices for English speakers and the option for Siri users to select the voice they want when they set up their device,” Apple said in a statement.
Most virtual assistants still default to a female voice, though users have the option to switch.
