Ask Siri

Note: You must be connected to the internet to use Siri.

Before you can ask Siri to do something, you need to activate it.

Activate Siri by doing one of the following:

With your voice: Say “Siri” or “Hey Siri” (if this option is available and turned on in Siri settings). To check whether “Hey Siri” or “Siri” is available for your device and language, see the iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability website.
Use the buttons on iPad: Press and hold the top button on an iPad with Touch ID, or press and hold the Home button on an iPad with a Home button.
Use headphones connected to your iPad: Press and hold the center or call button on your EarPods. For AirPods, see Set up Siri in the AirPods User Guide.
