Hi Shantel


On your iPhone, go to: Settings > General > Siri - check that this is enabled.


On your Apple Watch:


When creating a message or replying to one, tap the Microphone button, dictate what you want to say, then tap on Done.


- The microphone button looks like this:

You can also dictate a message entirely by using Siri:


- To activate Siri, either raise your wrist to wake the screen, then say "Hey Siri" or press and hold the Digital Crown until Siri activates and you feel the haptic pulse.

- Dictate your message in this way: "Hey Siri, tell <name> <what>". For example, "Hey Siri, tell Bob I'm on my way".

- When you have finished speaking, Siri will confirm on the screen both the message you dictated and to whom it will be sent.

- You can then either tap on the Don't Send button (to cancel the message) or lower your wrist, after which the message will be sent automatically.
