HOW TO Retain Siri results in macOS

1 Wake up Siri

Siri is a useful tool on macOS, but can be a little transient. Keeping a log of what’s been said is actually pretty easy though. Start by opening up Siri, either from the dock, the menu bar, or pressing ç+[ spacebar].

2 Ask a question

Siri’s range of knowledge – as long as you have an internet connection, of course – is pretty broad. Ask a question and you’ll get a brief summary. Ask for the result to be read out, or for more information, and you’ll get it.

3 Keep the result around

Siri’s displayed results each come with a small + icon in the top-right corner. Click this and they’ll be pinned to Notification Centre’s Today view, where they’ll stay until you click the ‘X’ to close them – great for watching sports fixtures.
