Practically since the launch of Siri, with the iPhone 4s, interaction with Apple's personal assistant has gradually changed. In the beginning, and practically until now, we can make use of Siri through the home button, keeping it pressed. With the launch of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, Apple allowed us to activate Siri through voice commands.
In just over a week the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone Edition will be presented, the latter being the one that will offer the radical change that all users were waiting for. By not having a physical button on the front, as developer Guilherme Rambio has been able to find out, the power button can be used to call Siri, in addition to obviously using voice commands.
According to this developer in a tweek he published a few days ago, he has found in the iOS code, some lines that suggest that the iPhone Edition, or whatever it is finally called, will allow us to interact with Siri through the power button, located in the right side, pressing it for a few seconds. Rambo has not provided any code and no proof of this discovery but if we stop to think it has all its logic, unless Apple makes use of the volume controls to plead for the lack of the start button.
Guilherme Rambo has been made known in recent weeks by one of the developers who has published more information about the iPhone Edition, fifth-generation Apple TV and the HomePod since Apple released, to perform tests with the device, the HomePod firmware on one of your servers. Este desarrollador fue probando hasta que finalmente dio con el y se lo pudo descargar. Hasta el próximo 12 de septiembre no saldremos de dudas. En Actualidad iPhone haremos un especial seguimiento de esta keynote
Interesting, more and more eager for the iPhone 8 and its new features to be officially presented and for users to start talking about it and investigating :).
