I set up my wife's new phone and Siri listens to me, not her. How do I change that?

You can ask her to setup Siri for herself.

Go to Settings > Siri & Search > turn OFF Listen for "Hey Siri" then turn it back ON for her to setup with her voice.


Activate Siri with your voice

When you activate Siri with your voice, Siri responds out loud.

  1. Say “Hey Siri,” then ask Siri a question or to do a task for you.
  2. For example, say something like “Hey Siri, what’s the weather for today?” or “Hey Siri, set an alarm for 8 a.m.”
  3. To ask Siri another question or to do another task, say “Hey Siri” again or tap .

Note: To prevent iPhone from responding to “Hey Siri,” place your iPhone face down, or go to Settings  > Siri & Search, then turn off Listen for “Hey Siri.”

You can also say “Hey Siri” to activate Siri while wearing supported AirPods. See Set up Siri in the AirPods User Guide.
