iPhone/iPad: Siri for Phone Calls

Hello, my name is Douglas Walker. Today we are going to be looking at how to place a phone call using Siri. Now Apple likes to call Siri our personal assistant. And with Siri, we're able to do things like set calendar events and reminders, get walking directions. We are able to perform a web search or even send a text message.

And today, of course, we will be using Siri to place a phone call. Now Siri is super easy to use. All we have to do to start Siri is to just say, "hey Siri, call," and then we can either speak the phone number that we want to call, or if the person that we are calling has been added to our contacts app, we can just speak that person's name.

Ed: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us we'd like to learn more about you: your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you. And don't worry. Everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions we're just a phone call away at 800.323.4238.

Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge. And last but not least, it gives you direct access to experts like me. Now, where were we?
