Chapter 4 Siri 37
Siri also wants to know about the important people in your life, so put those relationships on
your personal info card—Siri can help you. For example, if you tell Siri to text your sister, Siri asks
you who your sister is (if you don’t already have that info on your card). Siri adds that relationship
to your personal info card so it doesn’t have to ask next time.
Create cards in Contacts for all your important relationships, and include information such as
phone numbers, email addresses, home and work addresses, and nicknames you like to use.
Onscreen guide
Siri prompts you with examples of things you can say, right on screen. Ask Siri “what can you
do” or tap when Siri first appears. Siri displays a list of the apps it supports, with an example
request. Tap an item in the list to see more examples.
Handsfree Siri
You can use Siri with a compatible headset, such as the Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic
(available separately), and other wired or Bluetooth headsets.
Talk to Siri using a headset: Press and hold the center button (or the call button on a
Bluetooth headset).
To continue a conversation with Siri, press and hold the button each time you want to talk.
When you use a headset, Siri speaks its responses to you. Siri reads back text messages and email
messages that you’ve dictated before sending them. This gives you a chance to change the
message if you want. Siri also reads back the subjects of reminders before creating them.
Location Services
Siri uses Location Services to know about such things as your local weather, and restaurants and
other businesses near you.
Location information isn’t tracked or stored outside iPod touch. You can still use Siri if you turn
Location Services off, but Siri won’t do anything that requires location information.
Turn off Location Services for Siri: Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
