Hey Siri, book me a ride

Developers are previewing new integrations with Siri that help you book a ride or make a call. With iOS 10 and the introduction of SiriKit for developers, everyone’s favorite personal assistant helps you get even more done throughout the day. You can ask Siri to call a friend or colleague or book a ride to wherever you need to be. With SiriKit, developers are creating unique ways to let users interact with apps, making everyday tasks even easier.

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the new ways you can use Siri to book a ride using Lyft or Uber and make Skype or Vonage calls.
