When Apple introduced the ability to invoke Crab By saying "hey Siri" without the need to use the home button, the critics were swift. Many users did not understand the restriction that forced the iPhone to charge so that «hey siri»Was available and, apparently, their pleas have been heard and in the iPhone 6s, which will be presented in less than 9 hours, will always be listening and we can use the voice command even if the iPhone is not connected to a power outlet.
Nothing has been found in the iOS 9 betas that shows support for "hey Siri" with the iPhone disconnected, so at this time it is not known how Apple will make this work. IPhone 6s may include new hardware to detect when we want to invoke Siri with a special chip that wakes up the device when we need it. Otherwise, the battery could suffer a strong impact and descend quickly, something that, of course, no one wants.
On the Apple Watch, we can invoke Siri by raising the wrist and repeating the "magic words", but this does not seem like a good solution for the iPhone, since we can have the phone on a table or in a dock and still want to ask it something. request to our voice assistant. It is a mystery that will be revealed this afternoon and that I hope they have been able to solve. Anyway, the option can be deactivated from the settings.
As many of you know, a new beta of iOS 9 has been expected for a long time. Most likely this afternoon we will understand why a beta has not been launched since the beginning of last month. This "hey Siri" may be a reason, but it could also be related to the Touch 3D. The answer, in just over 8 hours.
Knowing the "slogan" of the keynote it seems logical to me that this is true. And I hope the so-called Apple tv can invoke siri in the same way.
There is a tweak which allows you to have it like this; yet another inspiration from Apple thanks to the Jailbreak.
Android has been doing it for a long time with the "OK google" command and no special chip, or exaggerated battery consumption. Who knows why until now it was only possible while charging ...
Hello, Dipeur. From what I have read, some devices do have it and this chip serves to save a bit of battery. If not, the battery suffers more or could last longer if it did. In an English medium, I read this: «Certain Android handsets that support the always-on« OK Google »feature use a specialized voice activation monitoring chip to wake the device from sleep without significantly impacting battery life, suggesting Apple built in compatibility on the hardware level '.
A greeting.
My Galaxy Note 3 already does it, there is even an option that you activate so that "S Voice" bypasses any security lock (pattern or password) and can respond to any request when you invoke it. I can also control the volume of music just by saying "volume up" or down. Take a picture just by saying "shoot." Among many more.
If the screen is Force Touch a simple touch on it and a "hey siri" could be enough.
And if it's not Force Touch too… ..you can do it by pressing the Home button. What changes if you have to press something to activate it? We are in the same….
As some say, it is something that has already worked with Jailbreak for quite some time, I have it activated myself.
