Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hi. I've got an iPhone 6s Plus and just downloaded iOS 10. Now, when I accidentally hold the Home button too long, it makes a loud pinging sound and brings up Voice Control. I don't want this; I work in a cubicle and don't want to make this much noise, nor do I ever use Voice Control.
I went into Settings > Touch ID & Passcode > ensured Voice Dial was off. If this isn't possible in iOS 10, how do I downgrade to iOS 9.x? Thanks.
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 10
With iOS 10.2, both Siri and Voice Control can be disabled. Yay! Now when you press and hold the home button or double press it, it just shows an invitation to enable Siri.
FInally, today I downloaded ios 10.2 on my iPhone 6 and made the following changes (to what I did before in this message chain):
1. Turned off Siri
2. Turned off both Siri and Voice control under accessibility->home key
I tested it a few times and it appears to block the voice problem I had before whilst using the phone.
Starting tomorrow I will use my car's hands-free without making any dummy-calls. Let's hope that the mystery calls are history now And that I can drive around and listen to my car radio again... (fingers crossed).
Happy days are here again... the car radio and hands free works again as it should after the latest 10.2 update.
Oops - sorry - replied to wrong chain!
How do I disable voice control in iOS 10?
