macOS Siri – How to Use ‘Hey Siri’ on Mac

macossirivoice-dictation

On iOS, you can activate the Hey Siri feature in Settings and call out "Hey Siri" at any time to activate Siri without pressing a button. How can I do the same thing on macOS?

Best Answer

You can use Dictation for this.

  1. Open Settings and enable dictation in keyboard settings. Make sure to check "Used Enhanced Dictation"(you may need to download something)

  2. Go to Settings > Accessibility > Dictation(under interacting)

  3. Check "Enable the dictation keyword phrase" Enter whatever you want in the text box underneath it. To use "Hey Siri", type "Hey" in the box. enter image description here

  4. Click on "Dictation Commands"
  5. Check "Enable Advanced Commands"
  6. Click on the plus that appears.
  7. Now fill it in like this: enter image description here
  8. If you want (and I recommend you do), uncheck all the other boxes as you might accidentally activate one of those commands without meaning to.
