Apple in iOS 14.5 and iPadOS 14.5 added a new option to help Siri learn to
select your preferred audio apps for listening to music, podcasts, and
audiobooks.

The first time you ask Siri to play music, a podcast, or an audiobook after
installing these updates, you will be asked to select your preferred app
from a list of those you have installed and which support this feature. Siri
will remember your selection and will use that service whenever you ask it
to play something. So, for example, if you select Spotify to play a song,
the next time that you ask Siri to play a song you will not need to specify
"on Spotify" to prevent iOS from defaulting to Apple Music. Note that Apple
has clarified that this is not a "default" music service setting, and there
is no toggle to select a service you want to continually use, but it is a
feature where Siri will learn your preferences and adapt to them.
Accordingly, Siri will occasionally re-ask for your preferred services to
keep up to date.

 

In this podcast, Thomas Donville walks us through this process and explains
how to have Siri change your preferred app at any time.
