Maybe this isn't news, and I'm the last person to notice this, but after seeing James Wyatt mention that Siri can roll dice, I gave it a try. You can ask Siri to roll a d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, or d20 by voice, natively in iOS with no dice-rolling app required. Siri even reads the result to you. Sadly, I couldn't get Siri to understand "3d6" or "3d10" or any other multiple. Anyhow, this is news to me; I don't know if it's common knowledge to the rest of the world!

Sorry, I'm not anywhere that I can confirm this, but I've played with the feature in the past and I'd thought that I could get her to roll correctly if I asked, "Siri, please roll me three six-sided dice." IIRC, she gave me back a ten.
Of course, it's possible I dreamt all of this.

Nifty! Maybe that feature will actually get me to use Siri.

Note: if you use Siri as a player in your game, she is notoriously bloodthirsty and will try to kill NPC's before even talking to them!

Okay, I just tried this, then tried multiples. Got the same result as Pauper.
I edited the request to be "Roll six six-sided die" and Siri responded "It's one."
To quote Siri.. I'm not sure how to respond to that.

If I say 'dice' it just rolls 2d6 no matter what else I say. So, just for playing classic traveller then
