iPhone Siri – iPhone Settings Not Showing Siri

I have an iPhone SE with iOS 10.3.1. The Settings app does not show the Siri option. I want to enable Hey Siri and I have restrictions disabled.

Here are some screenshots:

This works for iOS 11 and earlier (Restrictions were changed in iOS 12):

The easiest way to get Siri back (without doing a Soft Reset or Reset All Settings), do this:

  1. Go to Settings→General→Restrictions
  2. Enable Restrictions; give it a password.
  3. Disallow Siri & Dictation.
  4. Return back to General settings.
  5. Go back to Restrictions, putting in the password.
  6. Allow Siri & Dictation. Go back to Settings and Siri & Search should now be available.
  7. Disable Restrictions.

This worked on an iPhone 6s Plus on iOS 11.2.5.
