How to enable Cortana on Windows Phone 8.1
It's worth noting that the developer preview does include Microsoft's Siri and Google Now rival called Cortana but is available for US users only. However, there is a way of tricking the device into letting you use Cortana.
Step One
In the system settings head to 'Region' and select 'United States' - leave the region format as 'match phone language'. Changing the region will require a reboot.
