Tech iOS guys, answer calls with Siri? - GoFuckYourself.com

When I receive a phone call, my hands-free Bluetooth device will do the following: "Call from Steve Jobs. Answer or Ignore."

Can Hey Siri do something similar? Would like to drop the Bluetooth device and this is the only feature holding me back right now.

Hey mineistaken, what's up?

If Steve Jobs is calling you why don't you ask him?

Siri doesn't do this - yet.

However the functionality is coming where Siri will answer your call and do a number of things based on who's calling.

You can already do it if your phone is plugged in and charging.

Apple also lets you answer incoming callsâ??hands-freeâ??by saying â??Hey Siriâ? when the phone is being charged or plugged into power. If you use the â??Hey Siriâ? function to place an outbound call, though, you have to manually switch it over to speakerphone. Obviously not very effective for an eyes-free, hands-free interaction.

If you have a Jailbreak, you can get a tweak that allows you to do the "hey Siri" command anytime, anywhere...plugged in or not. I believe there's a tweak or ability baked right into the phone to make speakerphone answer the default.

Where did you read this? Doesn't need to be pulled in with the 6s for Hey Siri, but maybe you found something different.

With my iPhone 6, the "Hey Siri" won't work unless it's plugged in. The Internetz say it works Plugged and Unplugged in 6S/S+ but not the 6.

I've got the "Hey Siri" enabled on my 6 and she's just lying there like a dead fish when I try to use it while she's unplugged.

Right, which is why I said 6s.
