Siri keeps listening after she answers my question on my iPhone

I’d much rather say hey Siri again then have everything disappear constantly. Five times it took me to get something done.

Personally, I love it, it's nice to not have to say “Siri” each time and the few seconds before Siri stops listening doesn't hurt at all and can be easily bypassed - but that's just me.

Say "Siri, Stop" if your phone is across the room.

I mentioned that on page one of this thread. Sadly, it was not met with much approval........

Do its lack of working properly I’ve had to opt for shutting off Siri and just turning it on when I absolutely need it maybe by this way, the message can be sent to the proper people that I am through with Siri spying

As of a few weeks ago, I realized I could just say, “hey Siri! go away!” and it closed. Not ideal but it has worked reliably.

Why am I here then? Hope springs eternal! 😁

I periodically check to see if they have implemented a parameter. Actually, I would’ve sworn they had, but I don’t see it any longer. It was literally something like “stop listening after responding.”

Perhaps I saw it another technology. I don’t think so, though.

Yes it is that simple to end ur interaction with siri but what ur not understanding is that if u click on the link ur reading the information is scattered throughout the page so u have to look around to find all of it. So in this instance siri wasn't any help. The other thing is when u click on the power button as u suggest the information ur trying to read disappears completely. So again siri wasn't any help. All there saying is that if there was a way that you could stop siri from listening to u after you've asked ur question so the information she provided u with was to stay on your screen until ur done with it that would be great.

quadriplegic here. Same problem! I wish I could just roll back to version 15 or 16 before this was released. It is a huge accessibility issue but Apple continues to ignore accessibility community complaints.

No one here can change anything as we're all just fellow users.

A lot depends upon context.

When I say "Siri, Stop," Siri responds "There's nothing to stop here" and continues listening until it times out.

As stated above, it's a feature now.

Pressing the side button stops Siri listening at that point.

Hitting the side button would work fine, but what IF my phone is across the room.

Yup, I copied and pasted your answer.

EXACTLY! I am not talking to your anymore!

I searched for an option to “stop listening” after answer or similar, but nope…

Thank you for the link. So do you know of any workaround for this other than the button press?
