Reloading Siri?
Hello,
Somehow I have managed to delete SIRI from my I6. Is there anyway, short of resetting the phone back to the factory, to get SIRI back? IOS 11.2
iPhone 6, iOS 11.2

Siri is part of the default software. You can't delete it. Did you search for it? You may have moved it. If you can't find it then you will need to restore the device.
How to erase your iOS device & then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If the above doesn’t work for you, then:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6. 1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and leave one end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port. 2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off. * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. 3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning, let the device charge for at least ten minutes, and then start with step 2 again. 4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button: 5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert: 6. Use iTunes to restore the device. |
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Go to settings, general, restrictions. Check if Siri is restricted. I just tried restricting Siri there and then it deleted the option in settings just below sounds as you noted.
As noted, you can’t delete Siri. Check your settings to see if you accidentally turned Siri off or restricted the use.
Where in Settings could you turn on/off SIRI.
It doesn't appear between "Sounds" and "Touch ID & Passcodes" under Settings or any where else.
Spot on!! 👍
