Series and iPhone 8+

[izzak]

iPhone 8+ , series is on All the time ? Whenever i try to type in anything, like an eMail, and someone or myself talks, in the background, Series types over what has been typed in the box ? Why is Series on ALL the time without me Saying first "hay Series" ?

I assume you mean Siri? (Did you use voice entry to get Series instead of Siri?)

Settings/ Siri & Search/
Turn off Listen for Hey Siri and then a popup gives you the option if you want to disable Siri totally.

Alternatively, if you have tried the above, a soft reset is often the answer. (Volume up button momentarily, volume down button momentarily and then hold the power button until the Apple logo appears,)

I hope this helps.

Just realised that there is another possibility. Do you have a microphone on a blue circular background along the top and to the right of your home screen or apps?

If so, go to Settings/ Accessibility/Voice Control and turn Voice Control off.
