If you don't explore the power of Siri, you will never know how powerful Siri can be. Recently, I found from the Internet that we can unlock iPhone via voice, which will be quite useful when you forgot the screen password. In this article, I will show you how to unlock iPhone via Siri using voice control as well as how to unlock iPhone without Siri. Keep reading.
Part 1. How to Unlock iPhone with Siri
The way we will introduce to unlock iPhone screen with Siri is not the old way, which works only on 10.3.2/10.3.3 and opens the World Clock application using Siri. We make use of the function - Voice Control. After we create a Voice Command, we can speak the command to iPhone and it will perform the gestures we've set. We can set the gesture as our screen password so as to unlock our iPhone via voice. I found the tutorial in a video on YouTube. Now let's dive into the details on how to unlock iPhone with a voice command.
Step 1. Find the Voice Control
Open the "Settings" app on your iPhone. Go to "Accessibility" > "Voice Control."
Step 2. Set Up a Voice Command
Find the option"Customize Commands" and tap"Create New Command..." to set up a new command.Tap the microphone icon on the keyboard, speak the command (for example: Hello) to iPhone. It will be added to the"PHRASE"option.
The next step is to create gestures for the command. Go to"Action" >"Run Custom Gesture" to set the gesture. Make the gesture like the way you input your screen passcode[You can mark the numbers on your screen before you get started]. Then tap "Save" to save the gesture. Go back to the lastpage to tap "Save" to keep the voice command.
Step 3. Enable Voice Control
Then go back to theinterface of Voice Control to turn on Voice Control. Now you can lock your iPhone and testthis voice command. When you say "Hello" [everything you said earlier in Step 2], your iPhone will run the gesture to input the password to unlock your iPhone.
I have embedded the video here. See below for thevideo tutorial. The video is from the YouTuberTech 786.
Part 2. How to Unlock iPhone Without Siri
When you are locked out of your iPhone, I guess you probably have no idea to unlock iPhone with voice. Not to mention the setup of this voice command. Thus it is not possible to get into the locked iPhone with Siri. You have to turn to some other ways to get into your locked iPhone. Luckily, you can still unlock iPhone without Siri in another three ways. Here we will introduce everysolution specifically.
Method 1. How to unlock iPhone with a third-party application

If you don't want to use a third-party application, you can also use iTunes to reset your iPhone to regain access to your iPhone. It maytake a longer time to download firmware from iTunes. If you have the habit to back up your iPhone to iTunes, you are able to restore backup data from the resetting process. Below is detailed guidance.
