Digital assistant coming back as a woman? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iris

'a woman?' is the definition.
(woman's name)

'digital assistant coming back' is the wordplay.
'digital assistant' becomes 'siri' (assistant on Apple devices).
'coming back' is a reversal indicator.
'siri' reversed gives 'IRIS'.

'as' is the link.

(Other definitions for iris that I've seen before include "One controlling pupil' s reactions" , "Rainbow-goddess" , "Flag - part of eye" , "Ms Murdoch" , "Coloured eye part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
