Answer 3

Remove (or put) Siri on the side button

---

When the iPhone X arrived in 2017, Apple notified all the nostalgic people of the Home button that they would have to adapt themselves to the new design of their smartphones because the old phones would never come back. And that meant that, routines that we all had internalized, we would have to change them overnight. And one of them was to access Siri.

The fact is that two years have passed and many iPhone users still do not get used to it by holding down the side button to activate the assistant . So much so that most opt ​​for a voice command, the famous "Hey Siri" that puts the device on alert and starts listening to what we are going to say.

Remove (or put) Siri on the side button

So, since we no longer use that button to activate Siri and, at most, we use it to lock the phone or pay with Apple Pay, we are going to remove that function, lest one day we leave it pressed and jump unintentionally. To achieve this we only have to go to the Settings, from there to Accessibility and finally look for the option of Side Button that you will have within the Physical and motor function group.

Configure the side button functions.

A new screen will appear and there a series of options. The one we are looking for is the second one, the Keep pressed module to speak. Serial will come activated Siri, but if we want to do nothing, press and Disabled and the inconvenience is over.

In addition to all that, we can also configure the double or triple press speed with the side button , especially when we are going to pay with Apple Pay or activate any of the options assigned to it. One of them, absolutely crucial, is the emergency mode that alerts our most important contacts and 112 if we are in trouble and need help. To send this notice, press five times in a row.

The last of the options available is Use code to pay. If we activate it, the two touches on the side button will stop working to open the Wallet cards when we want to pay at some establishment.

With all these operations completed you already have a side button of your iPhone completely adjusted to your needs and, if in the future you convince yourself to use it to start Siri, you just have to undo everything we have told you here.
