Stop Saying “Hey Siri”
Granted, it’s a small change, but if you have an Apple silicon Mac, you no longer need to say “Hey, Siri” to call up your Mac’s voice assistant.
Instead, you can now say just “Siri,” and your Mac will understand you want Siri to come up. This alternative call phrase should be enabled by default, but here’s how you can check it (and change it if you’d prefer to keep the “Hey” on front):
- Open the Apple menu in the top left corner of your screen.
- Go to System Settings.
- Scroll down on the left sidebar and select Siri & Spotlight.
- Click the drop-down menu next to Listen for.
- Select “Siri” or “Hey Siri.”
