Digital assistants are standard on many smart devices now.
Apple’s Siri can be accessed across different Apple products, including iPhone, AirPods, MacBook, and iPad, by either touching a button or speaking a phrase.
It can be beneficial when looking for a quick answer about something, but Siri has a variety of other useful features.
Whether you need the assistant to help you find a lost item, call someone, translate, or change how it says something, it can all be done by uttering the one magic phrase: “Hey, Siri.”
