Use Siri or Voice Control. Press and hold the Home button, say “call” or “dial,” then say the name or number. You can add “at home,”“work,” or “mobile.” See Chapter 4, Siri, on page 41 and Voice Control on page 29.

For best results, speak the full name of the person you’re calling. When voice dialing a number, speak each digit separately—for example, “four one five, five five five….” For the 800 area code in

the U.S., you can say “eight hundred.”

When someone calls

Tap Accept to answer an incoming call. Or if iPhone is locked, drag the slider. You can also press the center button on your headset.

Silence a call. Press the Sleep/Wake button or either volume button. You can still answer the call after silencing it, until it goes to voicemail.

Decline a call and send it directly to voicemail. Do one of the following:

Press the Sleep/Wake button twice quickly.

Press and hold the center button on your headset for about two seconds. Two low beeps confirm that the call was declined.

Tap Decline (if iPhone is awake when the call comes in).

Note: In some areas, declined calls are disconnected without being sent to voicemail.

Respond with a text message instead of answering. Tap Message and choose a reply or tap Custom. To create your own default replies, go to Settings > Phone > Respond with Text, then tap any of the default messages and replace it with your own text.

Remind yourself to return the call. Tap Remind Me and indicate when you want to be reminded.

Keep it quiet

Want to go offline for a while? Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center, then turn on Do Not Disturb or Airplane Mode. See Do Not Disturb on page 32 and Travel with iPhone on page 40.

Block unwanted callers. On a contact card, tap Block this Caller (you can see a caller’s contact card from Favorites or Recents by tapping ). You can also block callers in Settings > Phone > Blocked. You will not receive voice calls, FaceTime calls, or text messages from blocked callers. For more information about blocking calls, see support.apple.com/kb/HT5845.
