How to use Siri on the Mac

Hey, Siri! What can you do on the Mac? Lots and lots!

Siri is now available on the Mac, and it goes even deeper into your software than it does on iPhone and iPad. It can search for files, check your system settings, and understands contextual language, so you can ask one question and follow it up with a related one right after.

How to enable Siri on the Mac

When you first install macOS Sierra, you will be asked if you want to use Siri on the Mac. If you didn't enable it at that time, you can do so manually at any time from System Preferences.

Click on the Apple icon () in the upper left corner of your screen.
Select System Preferences from the drop-down menu.


Select Siri (it is in the fourth section down).
Tick the box on the left side of the window to Enable Siri.


Select a language.
Select a Siri Voice


If you don't want Siri to speak, turn off Voice Feedback.
Select the Mic input from the internal one or an external accessory.
