Do you want to disable Siri on your iPhone because you don’t use it or find it annoying? Then this guide is for you.
Here we have shared how you can turn off Siri completely and disable the Hey Siri feature, as well as stop the side button from triggering Siri.
The steps are easy to follow, and you can do this on both iOS 26 and iOS 18.
After following this guide, Siri will be turned off on your iPhone and will not bother you again until you turn it back on.
Disable Siri on iPhone
- Unlock your iPhone and launch the Settings app.
- Go to Apple Intelligence & Siri.
- Here, tap on the Talk & Type to Siri option.
- On the next page, select Off instead of the Hey Siri option.
- Turn off the toggle for Press Side Button for Siri.
- Now turn off the toggle for Type to Siri. You will be asked to confirm whether you want to disable Siri. Tap on Turn off.
This will disable Siri on your iPhone, and Siri will not respond when you say Hey Siri or long-press on the Side button.
You can turn Siri back on by following the same steps and turning on the toggles you just turned off.
