There are three different ways to use Siri with AirPods Pro 3, and two don't require touching anything.

Voice Activation (Easiest): Say "Hey Siri" while wearing your AirPods. Your phone can stay in your pocket.

Common commands:

• "Play some music"
• "Set a timer for 20 minutes"
• "Read my messages"
• "Turn on noise cancellation"
• "How much battery do my AirPods have?"

Stem Press Method: Press and hold the stem on either AirPod until you hear a chime, then speak your command.

Customize in: Settings > Bluetooth > [your AirPods] > Press and Hold

Head Gesture Controls (New): When Siri announces a call or notification:

• Nod head = Accept
• Shake head = Decline

Perfect for meetings or quiet environments. Enable via:

• Settings > [your AirPods] > Announce Calls → ON
• Settings > [your AirPods] > Announce Notifications → ON

Tip: If Siri isn't hearing you well, check your ear tip seal. Do the Ear Tip Fit Test in Settings. Bad seal = bad microphone pickup.
