Put your home and work addresses on your card, so you can say things like “How do I get home?”
and “Remind me to call Bob when I get to work.”

Siri also wants to know about the important people in your life, so put those relationships on
your personal info card—Siri can help you. For example, the first time you tell Siri to call your
sister, Siri asks you who your sister is (if you don’t already have that info on your card). Siri adds
that relationship to your personal info card so it doesn’t have to ask next time.

Create cards in Contacts for all your important relationships, and include information such as
phone numbers, email addresses, home and work addresses, and nicknames you like to use.

Onscreen guide

Siri prompts you with examples of things you can say, right on screen. Ask Siri “what can you
do” or tap when Siri first appears. Siri displays a list of the apps it supports, with an example
request. Tap an item in the list to see more examples.

Raise to Speak

You can start talking to Siri just by bringing iPhone to your ear, like making a phone call. If
the screen isn’t on, first press the Sleep/Wake or Home button. You’ll hear two quick beeps to
indicate Siri is listening. Then start talking.
Turn on Raise to Speak: Go to Settings > General > Siri.

If Siri doesn’t respond when you bring iPhone to your ear, start with the screen facing you, so
your hand rotates on the way up.
