In iOS 14.5, Apple introduced two new Siri voices available in English, and also added a setup option that allows new users to choose their preferred Siri voice instead of defaulting to a female voice in USA.
The new voices, which Apple says add diversity in sounds and voice patterns, run voice recordings through Apple’s Neural Engine to make them more fluent naturally through. Phrases are created on the go, so you will feel that they sound more natural.
If you’ve updated your iPhone or iPad to iOS 14.5 / iPadOS 14.5, you can still change the Siri voice after setting up to find the one you like. Here’s how.
- Open the app Settings on iPhone or iPad.
- Choose Siri & Search (Siri & Search).
- Choose Siri Voice (Siri Voice).
- Choose an available Siri voice. A check box will appear next to your selection when your voice is downloaded onto the Apple server.
The number of voices available will depend on the Variety section you choose. For example, the American accent will have 4 voices while the Australian, British, Indian, Irish and South African accents will have only 2.
If you have a Mac updated to macOS 11.3, you can find similar options in System Preferences under Siri preferences.
