Having trouble with your new iPhone 16e? It can be frustrating when your settings keep changing on their own, and Siri stays turned on even after you try to turn it off. If you’re noticing these issues mainly when you’re at home, there might be a few simple steps you can take to fix it.
First, make sure your device is running the latest software. Sometimes, updates fix bugs that could be causing settings to behave strangely. To do this, go to Settings > General > Software Update. If an update is available, download and install it.
Next, check your Siri settings. Head to Settings > Siri & Search. Turn off Listen for “Hey Siri,” Press Side Button for Siri, and Allow Siri When Locked. Then, restart your iPhone. Sometimes, a quick restart can resolve temporary glitches.
You mentioned disconnecting from a watch — it’s possible that some Bluetooth connections are interfering. To be safe, go to Settings > Bluetooth, and make sure your watch is completely unpaired or turned off. Also, turn Bluetooth off temporarily to see if the issue stops.
Aside from that, it’s a good idea to reset your settings so everything goes back to default. To do this, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. Keep in mind, this won’t delete your personal data but will reset your Wi-Fi passwords, wallpaper, and other preferences. After resetting, set up Siri and your settings again carefully.
If these steps don’t help, consider contacting Apple Support. There might be an internal issue with your device, especially if the problem persists even after resetting.
By following these steps, you should be able to regain control of your iPhone’s settings and enjoy a smoother experience.
