Outside of driving, I never really understood the popular use case for these voice assistants. In most situations it is easier to type your query rather than say it out loud.
It was a novelty touted as a big leap in technology.

This lets me have 100% control of every feature/button and every app whilst I drive.
I can swipe on the screen using my voice.
I can write notes and messages.
I can switch to any app.
Voice control is a world leading accessibility feature that is a complete touch replacement controlled via voice.
Once I no longer need voice control I turn it off via Siri. The entire action of turning it on, using it, turning it off occurs with no touch at any point.
Also it's great for when I am cooking or doing diy and don't want to touch my phone.
In comparison Siri is better at a few narrowly defined actions but has less than 1% of the scope of voice control.
Reading people's complaints about Siri in this thread I feel what most people actually want is voice control.
But no one outside the visually impaired community knows about it.
That's how people describe it anyways.
