How to ask Siri about what's on your screen

Quick answer

With on-screen awareness, you can refer to what's in front of you — "add this address to his contact card" while viewing a message, and Siri acts on the content on screen. It's a new Apple Intelligence capability rolling out with the updated Siri.

Say this

Hey Siri, add this address to her contact card

How it works

  1. 01Have the relevant content open on screen (a message, web page, photo).
  2. 02Refer to it naturally: "this," "that address," "him."
  3. 03Siri uses what's on screen to complete the request.
  4. 04Confirm the action before it's saved or sent.

If Siri doesn't get it

On-screen awareness is part of the newer Apple Intelligence Siri and rolls out in stages — if Siri can't "see" your screen yet, the feature may not be live on your device or region. Based on Apple's announcement; not yet device-confirmed.
