Quickly End a FaceTime or Phone Call Using Siri
By default, the Siri Call Hangup feature is disabled. Therefore, you need to first turn it on.
Step 1. To get started, open the Settings app on your iPhone.
Step 2. Now, scroll down and tap on Siri & Search.
Step 3. Next, tap on the Siri Call Hangup option and then turn on its toggle.
There you go! From now onwards, you will be able to end a phone call using the virtual assistant with ease. Simply, say “Hey Siri, hang up.” and you are done.
Wrapping up…
Bear in mind that others on the phone call can hear your voice command. That minor downside aside, this is a well-thought-out feature. And I’m sure many users are going to give it a thumbs up. What about you?
For privacy-conscious folks, when a call is connected, Apple processes the voice input on the iPhone. Moreover, your transcripts and audio are not sent to Apple. Hence, you should not worry about the privacy of your personal conversations.
