Before You Start
- Reminders that fire when you get home or leave work need your home and work addresses on your own contact card in Contacts.
- "Call Mom" works once Siri knows who Mom is. Say "Mary Smith is my mom," with her real name, and Siri asks to save it.
- If Siri gets a word wrong, say the whole line again a little slower rather than correcting the one word.
- To turn on "Hey Siri," open Settings and search for "Talk to Siri." The menu name moves between iPhone updates, but the search finds it.
