Ask Aden's AI assistant hands-free with Siri ("Hey Siri, ask Aden a question") and hear the answer spoken back.

## What it is [#what-it-is]

Aden's assistant, the same one that powers in-app chat, can answer you
hands-free through Siri. Say “Hey Siri, ask Aden a question”, ask about your
tracks, tasks, releases or team, and Aden answers out loud. The same “Ask Aden”
action shows up in the iOS Shortcuts app, so you can add it to the Home Screen,
the Action Button, or an automation.

Aden answers about your **active team**, the one selected in the app, and the
assistant can look up real data (what's in progress, what's due this week, how
many releases are planned) before replying.

## Using it [#using-it]

1. Open **Profile → Account → Siri & Shortcuts** and try a question right there
   to confirm it's working.
2. From anywhere, say **“Hey Siri, ask Aden a question”** (or “Ask Aden about my
   music”). Siri asks what you'd like to know, then reads Aden's answer aloud.
3. To put it on your Home Screen or the Action Button, tap **Open Shortcuts app**
   from that screen and add the **Ask Aden** action. You can rename the spoken
   phrase there too.

Notes:

* You need to be **signed in**, have an **active team selected**, and be on the
  **Max plan** (Siri uses the same assistant as AI chat).
* If you haven't opened the app in a while Siri may ask you to open Aden once to
  refresh your session: open it and try again.
