Siri is terrible.

"Call mom" sometimes calls my mom, who is in my favorites (I have 4 people in favorites: mom, wife, daughter, brother).

Sometimes it decides to call "wife's mom"

Sometimes it says "which mom" then lists "mom, wife's mom"

Mom, literally the word mom, is in my favorites. I use it almost daily.

And yet, Siri doesn't remember this, doesn't create relevancy, it doesn't even decide "Let's look at Favorites first".

FWIW, if you never refer to "wife's mom" as "mom", you can change the required pronunciation in the contact details. Then, Siri will only activate if you say "Call wiyefesmom"
