Tell Siri about yourself on iPad
If you tell Siri about yourself—including things like your home and work addresses, and your relationships—you can get personalized service so you can say things like “Send a message to my husband” and “FaceTime mom.”
Tell Siri who you are
Open Contacts , then fill out your contact information.
Go to Settings > Siri & Search > My Information, then tap your name.
Tell Siri how to say your name
Say something like “Hey Siri, learn to pronounce my name.”
Tell Siri about a relationship
Say something like “Hey Siri, Eliza Block is my wife” or “Hey Siri, Ashley Kamin is my mom.”
Keep what Siri knows about you up to date on your Apple devices
On each device, go to Settings , then sign in with the same Apple ID.
Your personal information is encrypted and remains private.
To prevent Siri information from being updated between iPad and your other devices, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud, then turn off Siri.
Note: Siri uses Location Services when your requests require knowing your location. When Location Services is turned on, the location of your device at the time you make a request is sent to Apple to improve the accuracy of responses from Siri. See Set which apps can access your location on iPad.
