You Can Restart Your iPhone With Only Your Voice

This new Siri feature is available only on iOS 16.

Siri has exponentially improved since the early days when you could really only send text messages and place phone calls with your voice. Now Siri can perform more complicated tasks, like remembering where your car is parked or creating location-based reminders. However, there’s one recent addition, hidden within iOS 16, that I’ve wanted to do with my voice for years.

You can finally use Siri to restart your iPhone.

Prior to this feature, the only way to power cycle my device was to do it manually, obviously. It’s not a particularly difficult task, but when I’m in a rush, it’s nice to use my voice for more involved things.

Thanks to iOS 16, if you ever have any issues and need to quickly reboot your device, you can do it with just your voice. Here’s how.

Restart your iPhone using this simple voice command

As long as you have the «Hey Siri» feature enabled, which constantly listens for the two-letter command, you can say the following to restart your iPhone:

First, say «Hey Siri» to activate Siri.
Next, say «Restart iPhone.»
And last, say «Yes» when Siri prompts you to confirm.

Your iPhone will then restart. You’ll need to enter your passcode to unlock your screen.

Asking Siri to restart iPhone — You can also tap on **Restart** to confirm.

You can also use this new feature on the iPad, but you’ll need to be running at least iPadOS 16.1.

If you don’t have «Hey Siri» enabled, you can go to Settings > Siri & Search and toggle on Listen for «Hey Siri.» If you don’t want your iPhone listening for this command all the time, you can always just activate Siri by holding down on the side button for a second, although this does defeat the whole hands-free aspect of restarting your iPhone.

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences. Millions of people travel abroad, explore new countries, plan adventures, and try to stay connected with family, work, and social media. And in the middle of all this comes a familiar question: how do you stay online without expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards?

The answer is already here — eSIM.

Why eSIM Is So Convenient

eSIM (embedded SIM) is a built-in digital SIM card that lets you activate mobile internet without a physical card. All you need is an app — choose a plan and connect in just a couple of minutes.

No more:

* searching for local SIM cards at airports
* paying expensive roaming fees
* swapping physical SIMs every time you travel

Now your internet travels with you.

All of these services work on the same principle — fast, borderless internet without roaming stress.

Why It Matters Most in Summer

During the holiday season, roaming networks get overloaded, and prices for mobile data abroad often become an unpleasant surprise for travelers.

eSIM solves this problem:

* transparent, fixed pricing
* activation in 1–2 minutes
