Siri
Make requests
Siri (on iPad Pro, iPad 3rd generation and later, iPad mini and later) lets you speak to your
iPad to send messages, schedule meetings, make FaceTime calls, and much more. Siri
understands natural speech, so you donʼt have to learn special commands or keywords.
Ask Siri anything, from “set the timer for 3 minutes” to “what movies are showing
tonight?” Open apps, and turn features like Airplane Mode, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb,
and VoiceOver on or off. Siri is great for keeping you updated with the latest sports info,
helping you decide on a restaurant, and searching the iTunes Store or App Store.
Note: To use Siri, iPad must be connected to the Internet. See .
Cellular charges may apply.
Summon Siri. Press and hold the Home button, release the button, then make your
request. Or, instead of waiting for Siri to notice that youʼve stopped talking, you can
continue to hold down the Home button while you speak, then release it when you finish.
If youʼre using a headset, you can use the center or call button in place of the Home
button.
Hey Siri. You can use Siri without pressing the Home button. Just say “Hey Siri,” then
make your request. With iPad Pro, Siri is always listening, even when iPad isnʼt connected
to a power source. Other models require iPad to be plugged in.
To turn Hey Siri on or off, go to Settings > Siri > Allow “Hey Siri.”
