On Mobile

Hold down the Home button. This is the circular button below the bottom of the screen. On an iPhone X, you'll hold down the Power button on the right side of the housing instead.

Release the Home button when Siri appears. Once the screen displays the multicolored Siri logo, you can release the Home button.

Say aloud your request or question. You should see the words you're saying appear on-screen as you speak.

Wait for a response. Siri will analyze your request or question and then follow up with an answer. You can tap the Siri logo at the bottom of the screen to open Siri again when she's done talking.

On Desktop

Find Siri in the menu bar. Look for the multicolored Siri circle in the upper-right side of the screen. If you don't see Siri there, skip this step and the next one.

Click iPhone Settings Siri Siri. This icon should be in the menu bar. Doing so will prompt the Siri menu to appear in the upper-right corner of the screen. You can also click this icon in the Dock if it's there.

Use the keyboard shortcut instead. If you couldn't find the Siri logo, press and hold ⌘ Command+Space until Siri appears in the upper-right corner of the screen. You can view the current keyboard shortcut (if it's different than ⌘ Command+Space) by opening System Preferences, clicking Siri, and reviewing the "Keyboard Shortcut" field. On MacBooks with Touch Bars, you can access Siri by tapping the Siri icon in the Touch Bar.

Wait for Siri to appear. The Siri menu should appear in the upper-right side of the screen.
