Having trouble turning off Siri on your iPhone 14 Pro Max? You’re not alone. I recently faced a similar issue while shopping, and I want to share a simple solution that worked for me without needing to reset my phone.
While I was using Apple Pay at the store, Siri activated unexpectedly. I tried switching cards in my Wallet, but ended up having to use my physical card instead. The problem was that I couldn’t close the Apple Pay wallet because Siri automatically opened the Apple ID settings, preventing me from turning Siri off.
I rebooted my phone, but Siri remained active. When I tried to turn it off through the settings, I was told I could only do that in the Apple ID section on the device. Entering my passcode led to another issue—Siri started adding random letters from my iPhone’s last used password, and then it said I entered the wrong passcode. It was a frustrating situation.
Here’s what finally helped me stop Siri:
- Disable Siri on all devices: I turned off Siri in the settings to prevent it from activating elsewhere or interfering further.
- Change your Apple ID password: This step is a good security measure if you suspect any hacking or suspicious activity.
- Attempt to turn off Siri again: After disabling Siri and updating your password, go back to Settings > Siri & Search and try turning it off again.
If you’re facing a similar problem, this approach might help. You don’t need to reset your phone—just take these steps to regain control. Always remember to keep your Apple ID password secure and change it periodically, especially after any unusual activity.
If these solutions don’t work, reaching out to Apple Support could be your next step to resolve the issue safely.
