Sometimes there may be a blackout, so the first thing that comes to your mind is your phone to turn on the lamp. You start to feel the place around you to find your phone. Now, no problem after that, one of the best useful things that the iPhone or iPad provides and the iOS system is to activate the camera flash with just your voice. With the iOS 12 update, you can turn on the flashlight with your voice through the "Hey Siri" feature, and you see it as a required feature, especially if you are stuck in complete darkness. So how do you run the flashlight through Siri? Follow us.

How to set "Hey Siri"

Before anything, it is necessary to review how to operate the "Hey Siri" feature. It is known that this feature has been available since the launch of iOS 8, and Apple developed it so that you get Siri's attention and that the speech is directed at it. Some users use it a lot, and some do not use it at all, although it helps to make the most of the phone, especially after the recent updates to iOS.
This feature is disabled by default until you set it in Settings - Siri and Search - and then activate "Listen to" Hey Siri. "

Immediately after that, the phone or iPad will train you for a short period to recognize what you are saying, which is "Hey Siri" and you will be asked to say that three times.

Then you will be asked to say some short sentences such as "Hey Siri, how is the weather today?"

And oh Siri, that's me.

After that you will get that "Hey Siri is ready" press Done.
Flash activation through "Hey Siri"
There is no doubt that the ability to turn on the lamp through "Hey Siri" makes things much easier than before, especially if your hands are busy or you are looking for your phone in a dark place.
To turn on the flash via Siri commands, please follow the following:
◉ Make sure that your device is running the iOS 12 update, and make sure that "Hey Siri" is enabled in the settings as we explained previously, and that your phone is connected to the Internet.
◉ Use simple phrases such as "Hey Siri, turn on the flash, turn off the flash, or turn off the flash" and take into account that the voice command is short so as not to confuse Siri, and the voices interfere, so it is difficult to distinguish the command.

To stop the flash

It can be said

◉ If you say “Hey Siri, turn on the lamp or flashlight,” Siri will not work because these commands are for smart homes and its HomeKit package. Unless those words are appropriated by Siri acronyms.
◉ Siri cannot adjust the brightness of the lamp, it turns it on by default, and the intensity of the lighting can be controlled by deep or long press on the lamp shortcut in the control center.
◉ The "Hey Siri" feature works remotely on iPhone 6s and newer permanently, as for iPhone 6 and older, only "Hey Siri" works when the iPhone is connected to power.
◉ If you use the English language, here you have to say Flashlight to express the flashlight and not Flash or light. Of course, it should be on iOS 12, as we explained above.
