You can turn on "hey Siri" in settings > General > Siri. If the phone is plugged into power outlet, be it computer or car or a wall plug, you can activate siri without touching the phone by saying "hey siri" and adding the command you want. "Hey siri, call my mother". It makes interacting with Siri truly hands free. My discovery was that, even if you are not connected to power, as long as the Siri screen is on, you can issue commands with the voice prompt "Hey Siri". Very practical for minimizing having to press some kind of button in a series of queries. Hth, Ioana
