taking an incoming call hands free

It is against the law to conduct or answer a phone call when driving so I wish to know how to avoid this by converting the call to a hands-free mode.

I’m not sure this is what you are looking for but, with Announce Calls, Siri identifies incoming phone calls and FaceTime calls, which you can accept or decline using your voice.


  1. Go to Settings > Siri & Search > Announce Calls, then choose an option.
  2. When a call comes in, Siri identifies the caller, and asks if you want to answer the call. Say “yes” to accept the call or “no” to decline it.
