    Learn How You Can Use Siri With iMessage On Your iPhone/iPad

    Whether your iPhone/iPad is not in your hand or you are driving, it is possible for you to combine Siri and iMessagefor sending text messages. Your virtual assistant can even read out your incoming texts loud so that you can listen to whatever messages you have received.

    Note: Keep it in mind that you can voice-activate most of the modern iPhones/iPads when you plug them in. The 2015 iPhone models and the later releases, and 2016 iPad models as well as the later releases can all be voice-activated even when they aren’t plugged in. All you have to do is to say “Hey Siri” rather than keeping home button pressed. Other than that, everything remains the same. So, let’s dive into the details of how exactly you can take advantage of this feature.

    How You Can Send Messages Through iMessage With Siri On Your iPhone/iPad?

    Here are the steps that you will have to follow for sending messages by using Siri and iMessage together.

    1. Press & hold Home button for activating Siri (You can also say “Hey Siri” if your iPhone/iPad is compatible to this feature)
    2. Now, tell Siri that you have to send an iMessage. The process can be expedited by telling Siri the name of the contact to whom you want to send the message as well. In case, if you do not tell your assistant right away that to whom you want to send this message then it will ask you to provide a contact name, phone number, or email address associated to iMessage.
    3. Now dictate the message that you want to send
    4. Wait until Siri confirms your text’s content
    5. Tap send or say it

    If you think that the message formulated by Siri is not what you had wanted to send then don’t confirm it here rather re-dictate the message by telling Siri to “change it”.Alternately, you can also abandon the command by saying “cancel”.

    How You Can Use Siri For Checking Any New Messages On Your iPhone/iPad?

    If you want to check the new messages that you have received on your iPhone/iPad and you don’t really want to physically use the device then you can use Siri for having the favor. Here is how you can be able to do that.

    1. Press Home button and hold it on your device for activating Siri (You can also say “Hey Siri” if your iPhone/iPad is compatible to this feature)
    2. Now command Siri by saying “Are there any new messages?”, or “Check out my messages”, or something similar for that matter
    3. As soon as Siri mentions any messages, tap on any of them to view. New messages will be read by Siri once found.

    So, Siri – the personal assistant – is right there for you always no matter what you want it to do and how you may want to use it. Hope that you’ll be able to use it successfully with iMessage and cut any kind of hassles whatsoever involved in the process.
