Voice control, a feature available on both iPhone and iPod Touch, can be an incredibly useful tool for those who want to navigate their devices without having to touch them. With this feature, you can make calls, send messages, play music, and more, all without having to use your fingers. In this article, we’ll show you how to use voice control on your iPhone or iPod Touch.

Before we dive into the specifics, it’s worth noting that voice control is available on iPhone 3GS and later as well as iPod Touch (3rd generation) and later.

Here’s how to enable voice control on your iPhone or iPod Touch:

1. Go to Settings.

2. Tap on General.

3. Scroll down and tap on Siri.

4. Turn on the switch next to “Allow Siri.”

After you’ve enabled voice control, it’s time to give it a try. Here are some of the things you can do with voice control:

1. Make a phone call

To make a phone call, you can simply say “Call [name],” followed by the name of the person you want to call. If the person is in your contacts, your iPhone will automatically dial their number.

2. Play music

To play music, say “Play [song/artist/album]” and your phone will start playing the music you want to hear.

3. Set a reminder

To set a reminder, say “Remind me to [task] at [time].” Your iPhone will create a reminder for you and notify you at the specified time.

4. Send a message

To send a message, say “Send a message to [contact name] saying [message].” Your iPhone will compose a new message with the text you specified and prompt you to send it.

5. Open an app

To open an app, simply say “Open [app name].” Your device will launch the app you specified.

There are many other things you can do with voice control, including getting directions, setting a timer, and checking the weather. To see a full list of commands, simply say “What can I say?” when you activate voice control.

In conclusion, voice control can be a very useful tool for those who want to navigate their devices hands-free. By following the steps outlined above, you can easily enable voice control and start using it to make calls, play music, send messages, and more. With a little bit of practice, you’ll be able to navigate your iPhone or iPod Touch like a pro without ever touching the screen.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
