Turn on a fan with Siri
Quick answer
"Turn on the fan" and Siri switches on a HomeKit fan; "turn off the fan" stops it. Name the room if you have several — "turn on the bedroom fan." On fans that support it, say "set the fan to 50 percent" to control speed. Add it to the Home app first.
Say this
“Turn on the bedroom fan”
How it works
- 01Add your smart fan to the Home app
- 02Wake Siri and name the fan or room
- 03Say "set the fan to 50 percent" if speed control is supported

If Siri doesn't get it
Speed control only works on fans that report it to HomeKit. If the fan ignores a percentage, it may be a basic on/off accessory.
