Surely many of our readers are already taking advantage of the functionality Hey Siri! with iOS 8. But seeing that today is the big day of the release of iOS 8.1, and that so many others will not even know that it exists, today we want to tell you how you can activate it, and make Siri available to you without having anything else to do to tell you. voice command. So if you were impatient to see how your phone listens to you without touching any key, take note.
La Hey Siri option!, at least for the moment it does not come by default. Although things could change with the launch of iOS 8.1 today, in order to use the now famous command, which for some is a copy of Ok, Google on Android, you just have to go to the Settings tab, and then search for Siri. In this submenu you have the options to activate Siri, and when you exit it, you should immediately see how the vocal assistant allows you to communicate with him without having to press anything.
The truth is that for many users, this option has not meant any change in the use of your terminals, but for others, it has allowed them to gain in productivity by having considerably improved the understanding of the language and allowing to do almost everything with only voice commands. And since we know that many users have stayed below iOS 8, and today there are news with iOS 8.1, the most clueless may re-discover one of those qualities that despite having been there for a long time, or they did not know that it existed, or they had not taken advantage of it because they had not paid enough attention at the time of its introduction.
Do you regularly use the Hey Siri command? Do you think it is useful, or is it just one of those functions to show off your mobile and little else?
Hello cristina in your post you must comment that for it to work hey siri the terminal must be connected to the electrical power since it consumes battery, on the other hand being disconnected from the power, you must have entered normally to siri and then while it is active call him hey siri. Greetings and once again complement the info
Hello, good day, when the ios 8 came out, I installed it and began to use the siri with the power cable connected and until then everything was fine, then I read that to use the HEY SIRI without it being connected, the iphone should be activated, And it also worked cool, then I no longer used it, and now when I want to use HEY SIRI again, it no longer works with the iPhone activated, but with the power cable.
I just installed ios 8.1, deactivated and reactivated SIRI and it is still the same.
I have Iphone 5, is that why?
thanks for your help.

Not that people were stupid. As soon as you fiddle with the phone options you will find that one. In addition, the information of the article is incorrect. Hey Siri will work in English with the phone set to English, but in Spanish you have to say Hey Siri. With Hey it doesn't work.
siri does not appear on my iphone 5s
