Dutch Siri identifies my App Shortcut but requests Notes or falls back to Home/Intercom — FB25058524
I need a supported way for Dutch Siri to invoke Elegant Cook's built-in grocery actions directly, without requiring users to create personal shortcuts.
The installed TestFlight version is 1.5.3 (32), on an iPad Air (5th generation). The owner reports iPadOS 26.6.1; the diagnostic archive identifies build 23G83. Siri is Dutch, with nl_BE runtime assets. Use with Siri is enabled and spoken responses are preferred.
The main app uses App Intents and AppShortcutsProvider with three actions: add a grocery, read the list, and check off a grocery. The voice actions use scalar String parameters with requestValueDialog and return ProvidesDialog results. The phrases use the applicationName token and have packaged English and Dutch localizations. We do not register Notes or Home intents.
Observed behavior:
“Hé Siri, voeg boodschappen toe in Elegant Cook” and “Hé Siri, lees mijn boodschappenlijst in Elegant Cook” ask whether to use Elegant Cook or Notes. After selecting Elegant Cook, adding and reading work by voice.
“Hé Siri, vink een boodschap af in Elegant Cook” and the registered app-name-first equivalent “Hé Siri, Elegant Cook boodschappen afvinken” instead produce the instruction to download Apple's Home app to use Intercom.
“Hé Siri, open Elegant Cook” opens the installed app correctly.
The signed build contains extracted App Intents metadata, compiled Dutch/English nlu.appintents assets and successful phrase-training output. These build checks do not establish successful device routing or App Shortcuts Preview validation.
For one captured check-off invocation, local diagnostic analysis identified this sequence: the recognized utterance includes the correct app name; App Shortcuts are enabled; the intended CheckElegantCookGrocery action is a Siri candidate; app disambiguation then fails and explicitly redirects to Home/Intercom before the grocery operation. This trace covers check-off only. It does not prove that the add/read chooser has the same cause, or establish a definitive Apple framework bug.
The private bug report is FB25058524. It includes selected evidence and source code. A full sysdiagnose has not been uploaded, and the isolated Swift example is not a compiled or validated reproducing Xcode project.
We develop on Windows and use EAS cloud builds, so local Xcode App Shortcuts Preview is unavailable. The code-level support form currently directs us to this forum when we cannot provide a test project demonstrating the issue.
Could an App Intents/DTS engineer advise:
Which supported registration or metadata correction should we check when Siri identifies an explicitly named App Shortcut but chooses another domain before perform()?
What targeted diagnostic evidence can distinguish an app configuration problem from a Siri routing defect without local App Shortcuts Preview?
Is there a supported workaround for direct Dutch voice invocation on this OS build, without personal shortcuts or private system settings?
We can prepare an isolated native sample project if required, but will clearly distinguish source preparation, cloud compilation and actual device reproduction. We do not want to claim a reproduction that has not been verified.
