iOS 27 Beta 1: iPhone 17 reverted to Old Siri instead of New Siri.

My phone no longer shows the waitlist for Siri and has the option to "Try New Siri." I select it, continue, continue and the settings change to "Siri (Beta)" and the waitlist option is no longer there, but when using Siri it's the old pre-Apple Intelligence Siri that activates (little bubble at the bottom) and it does not work.

Going to Safari and typing "Siri://" opens the New Siri App, but it says "Siri Update in Progress; Adding support for Siri hasn't completed. Open Settings to check the status." The app does not show up in Spotlight.

My phone is done Indexing and all signs point to my phone being enrolled to use the New Siri, but it isn't working at all and still has not shown up. I've tried restarting a few times. Anyone experiencing this too?

Well, I fixed the problem by restoring to iOS 26 from new. I tried from a backup but the problem persisted. when starting new without backup, new Siri now works as intended. Worth it? We’ll see. But it works! (i like a fresh start from time to time anyway)

Yes I am I’m on. A iPhone 16 pro max but it reversed my Siri to the older model

me too! dont know what do to, but found that when you search up "siri://" in safari it opens the siri app that says "Siri Update In Progress." It works on my Macbook air M4 but for some reason not my iPhone 17 pro max

Same with me as well
