on your headset.

•• Use full names.

Change the language for Voice Control. By default, Voice Control expects you to speak voice commands in the language that’s set for iPhone (in Settings > General > International >Language).
To use Voice Control in another language or dialect, go to Settings > General >International > Voice Control.
Voice Control for the Music app is always on, but you can keep Voice Control from dialing
when iPhone is locked. Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode (iPhone models with Touch ID) or
Settings > Passcode (other models), then turn off Voice Dial.
