Q: Turn off voice control iOS 10

I can't seem to find how to turn off voice control when I hold down the home button. It is annoying when it pops up when trying to take screen shots. I hate it.

iPhone 6, iOS 10

    Greetings, ncfrobleg.

    From your post, I believe you want to turn off Siri on your iPhone 6. I'll be glad to show you where that setting is.

    For iOS 10, you tap Settings > Siri and tap the top button. If you'd rather not be able to use Siri on your Lock Screen, you can turn it off there as well.

    Hi, thank you for your reply.

     

    I believe Voice Control and Siri are different but are accessed in the same way (hold home button).

     

    When I enable Siri and hold home button I get Siri, when I disable Siri and hold home button I get Voice Control.

     

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    I agree with ncfrogleg.

    In my case Siri is turned off, but I get Voice control every time when I want to unlock.

    How to turn it off ?

     

    Thanks

    If you turn off Siri, you turn on Voice Control. At this time, there's no way around that. I'd suggest turning Siri back on then disabling it on the lock screen. Settings>Siri>Access on Lock Screen>Off.
