This means that now we can use apps like Telegram or WhatsApp to send messages using just our voice through Siri. Let’s see how to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selecting our messaging app through Siri<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The process is simple. When we ask Siri to send a message, it will give us the option to select the app from which we want to send it. <\/strong>To check if a messaging app is compatible with Siri or to enable or disable it from the options, we can follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. We open the Settings <\/em>app on our iPhone or iPad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. We enter Siri & Search.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. We enter the app we want to check or configure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. We turn on or off “Use with ‘Ask Siri’.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Once we’ve enabled this option for an app, we can manually choose it when we ask Siri t<\/strong>o send a message. The procedure is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. We summon Siri with a “Hey Siri” or by holding down the side button on our iPhone or iPad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. We ask Siri to send a message to one of our contacts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. On the message card that appears at the top, we tap the Messages icon next to the person’s name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. We choose another compatible messaging app from the drop-down menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. necessary, we edit the message and tap Send<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

      It may seem like a small detail, but sometimes with certain people, we need to use a specific app to communicate. In this regard, iOS 17 has opened up a range of possibilities by allowing us greater flexibility and customization in how and through which apps we write.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
