It lets you control the handset without even touching it – just by using your voice.

We’re not talking about Siri here, but a little-known Apple feature called Voice Control.
It’s tucked away in the Accessibility settings inside your iPhone, and is intended to make the gadget easier to use.
But with the right settings, you can perform a stunning iPhone magic trick that’s actually useful: scrolling with your voice.
It was revealed by TikTok gadget whiz @letsdodiz, who regularly shares iPhone hacks.
His clip has already racked up thousands of likes, so it’s proving popular.
Go into Settings > Accessibility > Voice Control and then turn the toggle at the top to the ON position.
Now tap Customise Commands and click Create New Command.
Next name the phrase “Swipe Up”, and then tap Action.

Click Run Custom Gesture and then swipe up on the screen.
Save it and then choose an application: like TikTok, for instance.
Now save the command, and then go to TikTok.
Then when you say your voice control command, the screen should swipe up and scroll through a video for you.
Fans on TikTok were impressed by the results.
One wrote: “Thanks I have been looking for this feature for a long time.”
Another said: “It works, yay”.
And one added: “It’s good for Tinder too swipe right and left.”
You can create lots of different voice control commands, so try experimenting with some on your own.
But be aware: if you’re somewhere noisy, it might be difficult for the iPhone to pick up your voice commands.
