I find Siri to be very helpful, but its habit of reading out messages in my ear at times makes me super irritated. To end this once and for all, I wanted to change Siri’s annoying habit.
It’s not that technical, and anyone can do it within seconds. So, next time you feel bothered by Siri announcements, here is what you need to do.
How to Turn Off Siri Reading Messages on AirPods?
- Start by going to the ‘Settings App.
- Scroll down to ‘Notifications.’
- Click on ‘Announce Notifications.’
- Toggle off ‘Announce Notifications.’
Method 2: To Customize Settings
- To customize the setting, go to ‘Announce notifications‘ again.
- Now select the apps for which you want to turn off notifications.
Method 3: Using Control Centre While Wearing The AirPods
- If you have a Face ID, then swipe top right, and if you have Touch ID, then swipe top bottom.
- Then, click on the bell icon with a waveform.
- Now select “off” to turn off the notifications.
Wrapping Up
Next time you wonder how to stop Siri from reading my messages, you know what to do. Knowing how to turn it off has been a big saviour for me, and I know it will help many people.
Don’t worry, turning it off is not the end of the world because you can also turn it back on again or keep it specific for certain apps. This setting also does not apply to CarPlay or headphones, and only to AirPods. So make the settings you have been itching for and enjoy your privacy.
