Why won’t Siri answer me?
No worries! Voice assistants vary depending on your phone—Siri for iPhones, Google Assistant for Androids, and sometimes Bixby for Samsung. To get yours working, make sure it's set up properly on your device.

Here’s how to get started:

  • On your iPhone, use Siri, and for Android, open the Google Assistant app.
  • Say, “Assistant settings” (or for iPhones, "Hey Siri").
  • Under “Popular settings,” tap Hey Google/Hey Siri and Voice Match.
  • Turn on Hey Google or Hey Siri.
