What is announce calls on iphone?

Announce Calls on iPhone is a new feature introduced in iOS 13 that enables the Siri virtual assistant to announce incoming calls. When enabled, Siri will read aloud the name of the caller or their phone number if the contact is not saved in the phonebook, before the call is answered. The purpose of this feature is to make it easier for users to identify who is calling, especially when they are in a situation where they cannot access their phone or look at the screen.

To enable Announce Calls on iPhone, follow these steps:

1. Open the "Settings" app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap on "Phone".
3. Select "Announce Calls".
4. Toggle on the switch next to "Announce Calls".
5. You can also choose to have Siri announce calls always, only when connected to headphones or car, or only when using headphones.

Note: This feature is available on iPhone 6s or later models and can be used with any supported language.
