Do you long for the day when you can use only your voice to unlock your iPhone? If that’s the case, you’ll be pleased to know that it’s doable with the help of a secret Accessibility option known as Voice Control. This has been a part of iOS for a while now. It lets users do different things with their iPhones just by using their voices.
Previously, you couldn’t use Voice Control if your iPhone was locked. However, in newer versions of iOS, you can use Voice Control even when your phone is locked, and this allows you to enter your passcode with your voice even with your iPhone locked.
In this guide, we will show you how you can unlock your iPhone 14 Pro/Max with your voice only.
