Hi Jthagan,


We appreciate you reaching out to us. We understand that Siri on your device stops replying unless you reset your device.


We’d like to gather additional details that may help us be in a better position to assist you.

Have you had the chance to try the steps in the article below?

If "Hey Siri" isn't working on your iPhone or iPad


"Check if "Hey Siri" is on

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Tap Siri & Search.
  3. From here, make sure the following settings are turned on:
    • Listen for "Hey Siri"
    • Allow Siri When Locked


Set up "Hey Siri" to help Siri recognize your voice

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Tap Siri & Search.
  3. Turn off Listen for "Hey Siri," then turn it back on.
  4. When the Set Up "Hey Siri" screen appears, tap Continue.
  5. Say each command that you see on your screen.
  6. Tap Done.


If Siri still isn't responding

By default, Siri won't respond when your device is face down or covered unless you go to Settings > Accessibility > Siri and turn on Always Listen for "Hey Siri.""


In the meantime, we recommend that you check for a software update.

While it isn't inherently assured that an update will resolve the issue, updating to the latest software version for your device can help isolate potential software issues. 

Kindly secure a backup and update.
