How do you activate Siri on this device? This is promised on the Amazon product page, but does not appear possible according to the manual.

You can't use Siri with this device. I too was confused in the same way by the poor product description on this page. I emailed the company and they said this model is not compatible with Siri, you have to get the older 5 button model for that.

Hi, yes, I used these buttons on my mini iPad. I love it. If you are using with a magnetic cover, it will turn on Siri if you press it. When I put it in my backpack, I must turn it off, or Siri talks to me. I love them.

Yes, Yes, Yes. TO activate Siri or other voice control is simple, hold left and press right at the same time. You NEVER have to take your phone out, read texts, dial numbers, play voice mail, CHECK THE TIME, whatever.

Do you mean that you can push a button to activate Siri from the speaker? I don't think so but I know the company was working on it

Mine didnt voice dial initially. However, if you have an iphone and do the most recent software upgrade, you get a SIRI dial screen and you can use SIRI to do whatever SIRI does Also Im not sure who told you the 940 does it all, it was the low end model of the NAV series. Its does a ton of things, esp in regards to sound shaping and listening options, but the 7" and 8" Alpines NAV decks have more features (free traffic, ), but no voice dial, until the 2014 SIRI upgrade

By default voice activation is off. There is a reason for that. Even when it works ok, you don't always want a voice to trigger it.

I am guessing that you are referring to Siri. Siri get turned on by holding down the home button, I have done this accidentally myself. A small purple microphone appears in the bottom banner of the screen when Siri is turned on. Turn it off by pressing the home button.

This unit is a bluetooth speaker that would replace anything that you would otherwise hear from your iPhone speaker. If it is turned on and paired you can ask Siri questions and the responses will be heard through the speaker.

From my trials and errors - The unit has its own button right next to the mic, with that button you can activate Siri. But if you plug in headphones - that do activate Siri - the headphone button or remote will not activate Siri. But like I said the unit has a nice button right next to the mic - but if you have a helmet you wouldn't be able to access that button - bummer

Yes, there is a setting for voice activation. It will take some trial and error because the instructions are awful. The translations are terrible and make little sense, but it's not a bad little device once you get past that.

I use the SBH-50 at work and for me it lasts over 8 hours. I do not know if you can activate Siri from SBH-50. I do not have an IPhone.

I don't believe it's compatible with Siri but you can change tracks using the buttons which is not easy with ski gloves on. You can however answer a phone call while listening to music by just saying "hello"

I have an iPhone 4s, if you single tap the large button on the IOGear you can ask Siri to "Call Tony Mobile". You can also ask Siri to launch apps (requires IO6/IOS7)

You can't click a button and turn Siri on no. When Siri is activated you can use the microphone from the headphones to talk with her

It works with Siri... although you have to push the button on the phone, not the Jabra.

I can't assume ANYTHING here...... So, I MUST ask you this.... You have "Voice Activation" on your Phone, Right. ..?!?! Assuming you do, Then you have to make sure It's Already Been Programmed correctly, also....!!! Then just pair them up, Together In your App. and It should work from there....!!!! Don L.

Actually, Chips DO work with BOTH SIRI and Android voice command. Hold Left Side for 5 second and tap right side!
