Siri is intelligent personal assistant which Apple has been heightened in recent years. It's an assistant capable of us answer all questions, does not offer suggestions or to perform certain operations to a simple one voice control.

In terms of suggestions Siri (Siri Suggestions), they are not always useful and most of the time we feel invaded by them. Both in "search" and in applications.
These suggestions Siri they can be disabled, customized for certain applications or completely disabled the Siri assistant.

How do we customize Siri suggestions, customize or completely disable the intelligent voice assistant of Apple

By default, Siri can be "questioned" by voice commandHey Siri" or pressing and holding the button "Home"Or"Sleep", depending on the iPhone model.
If you do not need this tool Apple, deactivation and / or customization can be done very easily from the menu "Settings".

1. go to Settings →  Siri & Search. In this menu you have all the options available for Siri settings. From here you will be able to activate or deactivate certain elements of the intelligent voice assistant or you can customize it Siri in applications.

2. To disable suggestions in search, look up si lock screen, go to "Siri Suggestions" in the menu and disable: "Suggestions in Search","Suggestions in Look Up"And"Suggestions in Lock Screen".

You can also deactivate from this menu Siri by voice command "Hey Siri"Or when you hold down the"Home”Or the side locking one, in the case of models iPhone X si iPhone XS or newer.

Personalization Siri for applications installed on iPhone or iPad

Scrolling down the menu in "Siri & Search” we find a list of all the applications installed on the iPhone. Going further into each application, we have the customization options Siri for that application.

From here we can leave Siri to learn about how we use the application to give us suggestions in the future, we can enable or disable suggestions and search results for the application or we can remove it from the lock screen.

I am happy to share my experiences in the field of computers, mobile phones and operating systems, to develop web projects and to bring the most useful tutorials and advice. I like to "play" on the iPhone, MacBook Pro, iPad, AirPort Extreme and on operating systems macOS, iOS, Android and Windows.
