Voice Control
Make phone calls and control music playback with Voice Control. (On iPhone 4s or later, you can also use Siri to control iPhone by voice. See the Siri section.)
Note: Voice Control and Voice Control settings aren't available when Siri is turned on.
Use Voice Control. Turn Siri off in Settings > General > Siri, then press and hold the Home button until the Voice Control screen appears and you hear a beep, or press and hold the center button on your headset.
For best results:
- Speak clearly and naturally.
- Say only Voice Control commands, names, and numbers. Pause slightly between commands.
- Use full names.
Change the language for Voice Control. By default, Voice Control expects you to speak voice commands in the language that's set for iPhone (in Settings > General > International > Language). To use Voice Control in another language or dialect, go to Settings > General > International > Voice Control.
Voice Control for the Music app is always on, but you can prevent voice dialing when iPhone is locked. Go to Settings > Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode (iPhone 5s) or Settings > General > Passcode Lock (other models), and turn off Voice Dial.
