Listen for Hey Siri
If you want to call up Siri without even touching your iPhone, you’ll need to let Siri hear the words “Hey Siri” (or just “Siri” if you’re using iOS 17 already). Here’s how to enable this:
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and go to Siri & Search.
- Tap on Listen for.
- Select “Siri” or “Hey Siri,” or “Hey Siri.”
Keep in mind that this will always work without headphones. However, you’ll need the second-generation AirPods Pro or later to use just “Siri” with iOS 17.
