Code-along: Make your app available to Siri

A Podkey summary of Code-along: Make your app available to Siri, from WWDC 2026.Today’s story is really about making Siri feel less like a stranger to your app and more like someone who actually gets what’s in it. The big pieces are App Schemas, Spotlight indexing, and a set of intents that let Siri search, open, create, update, and delete real calendar events with a lot less glue code than you might expect. And the nice part is that a lot of this comes down to describing your app clearly, so the system can do the smart stuff instead of you trying to outsmart language itself.What App Schemas changeThe two kinds of entitiesWhy Spotlight donation mattersShared state through dependency injectionOpening the right eventOnscreen awareness and reference by contextUpdating optional values without ambiguityHandling real event dataThe full set of event intentsCustom result cards and testingThis podcast was created with Podkey.
