Siri and long press on headset

[bernhard]

Hi,

It was possible to activate Siri by using a long press on the headset remote, but when I try it on my 5S/7.0.4 it's not working any more. There is no setting to enable this either.

Anyone noticed this before?

regards,
Bernhard

Long press works perfectly for me on 5S

Confirmed working here as well. Restart your phone maybe? Also check and see if Siri is disabled.

Hi,
thanks for testing!
I suspect the headset then, people tell me they hear much noise when I use it, maybe it's broken..

Hi again,

I just tested it and it seems Siri will only activate if the phone is unlocked, if it is locked I can only start/stop music.
(there is a two year old post with a similar problem: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16692414)

Did you test it with the phone locked?

thanks,
Bernhard
