How to get Siri to read you any webpage



Siri is full of surprises. She can tell you the weather, launch apps and give you sport scores. She's really funny and can beatbox (sort of).

Over the years, she's gotten smarter and smarter, but here's one really cool trick you may not have known she could do: Read webpages.

There are times when it's more convenient to hear an article than read one. Like when you're driving, cooking or taking a nice warm bubble bath.

Unlocking Siri's webpage reading power is easy. Go into your Settings app and then General > Accessibility > Speech. Turn on the Speak Screen option.

Then open Safari and surf to a web page. Once you're on the page you want Siri to read, swipe down from the status bar using two fingers and a Speak Screen box will pop up, and Siri will automatically start reading you the webpage — ads and all.



To get around Siri reading you ads and other non-content-related text, tap the Reader View button (the one with four lines) in the upper left before using the two-finger swipe to bring up the Speak Screen box.

You can slow down or speed up the dictation by tapping on the turtle and rabbit buttons, play and pause, and go to previous or next paragraph using the rewind and fast forward icons.
