How to Manage and Use Siri on Mac OS Mojave

If you have a Mac running OS Mojave, you can now use Siri to control your computer just by using your voice. Siri is a virtual assistant that can perform a variety of tasks, and with Mac OS Mojave, it’s easier than ever to use Siri to get things done on your computer.

In this article, we’ll show you how to manage and use Siri on Mac OS Mojave. We’ll cover how to turn Siri on or off, what Siri can do, and how to customize Siri to your liking.

Turning Siri On or Off

If you want to use Siri, you’ll first need to turn it on. To do this, open the System Preferences app and click on the Siri icon. Once you’re in the Siri settings, you can click the Siri switch to turn it on or off.

If you want to use Siri but don’t want it to always be listening for your voice commands, you can also click on the “Enable Hey Siri” checkbox. With this option turned on, you can activate Siri by saying “Hey Siri” followed by your voice command. If you don’t want Siri to always be listening for your voice, you can leave this option turned off.

What Siri Can Do

Siri can do a lot of different things on your Mac. You can use Siri to open apps, find files, check the weather, set reminders, and much more. To see a complete list of what Siri can do, you can click on the “What can I ask?” link in the Siri settings.

If you’re not sure what to ask Siri, you can also click on the “Show Siri in menu bar” checkbox. This will add a Siri icon to your menu bar, and you can click on it to see a list of suggested Siri commands. You can also click on the Siri icon in the menu bar and say “What can you do?” to hear a list of Siri commands.

Customizing Siri

You can also customize Siri to your liking. In the Siri settings, you can choose which language Siri uses, and you can also choose whether Siri uses male or female voice. You can also choose whether Siri responds to your voice commands or not. If you don’t want Siri to respond to your voice commands, you can turn off the “Listen for Hey Siri” and “Press and Hold for Siri” options.

You can also choose whether Siri shows you results from the web, your apps, or both. If you only want Siri to show you results from your apps, you can turn off the “Allow Siri to access my iCloud Drive” and “Allow Siri to access my Reminders” options. You can also choose whether Siri displays web results in Safari or in the Siri results window.

Managing Siri Settings

Once you’ve turned Siri on and customized it to your liking, you can start using Siri to get things done on your Mac. If you ever want to change your Siri settings, you can always go back to the Siri settings in the System Preferences app.

Siri is Apple’s digital assistant, and it’s available on the Mac just as it is on the iPhone and iPad. If you’re used to using Siri on your mobile devices, you’ll be pleased to know that Siri on the Mac works just as well. Here’s how to get started with Siri on your Mac.

First, make sure that Siri is turned on in System Preferences. Go to System Preferences > Siri and make sure that the Siri switch is turned on.

If you want, you can also click the checkbox next to Allow Hey Siri. This will allow you to activate Siri using the “Hey Siri” voice command. Once you’ve turned Siri on, you can activate it by clicking the Siri icon in the menu bar, or by pressing and holding the Command key and Spacebar.

Once Siri is activated, you can ask it to do things like open apps, find files, perform web searches, and more. Siri is constantly improving, so it’s worth taking some time to explore all of the different things that it can do.

If you’re not a fan of Siri, you can always turn it off again in System Preferences. However, if you’re just getting started with Siri, we recommend keeping it turned on so that you can explore all of the different things that it can do.
