Call a phone number that's on screen with Siri

Quick answer

"Call this number" while a phone number is visible on screen and, based on Apple's announced on-screen awareness, Siri can dial it without you copying it out. What Siri reads from the screen depends on your device, app, language, and region.

If Siri doesn't get it

On-screen awareness is an Apple Intelligence feature and is device- and region-dependent. If it doesn't work, tap the number directly to dial.
