Nowadays, tools can read out text in voices that sound impressively natural. What\u2019s even more amazing, with iOS 17, you can have the narration <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/personal-voice-iphone\/\">mimic your own voice<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, one of the features of iOS 17 is its ability to read articles aloud for you. If you\u2019ve ever skimmed an article and wished you could simply listen, now you can. So, whether you\u2019re on the move with headphones or just not in the mood to read, let Siri take care of it.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Do It?<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s actually quite simple. Open Safari and navigate to a website with an article. Next, activate Siri and instruct her to read by saying, \"<strong><em>Hey Siri, read this.<\/em><\/strong>\"<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/read-articles-siri\/siri-read-this.jpg\" alt=\"siri read this\"><\/figure>\n<p>Siri will then begin reading the article to you. You have the option to pause, move forward, or go backward as you please. To stop Siri from reading, either click the pause button or say \"<em>Hey Siri, stop.<\/em>\"<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to change Siri\u2019s voice, navigate to \u2018<strong>Settings<\/strong>\u2018 &lt; \u2018<strong>Siri & Search<\/strong>\u2018  &lt; \u2018<strong>Siri Voice<\/strong>\u2018 and choose one that suits your liking.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/read-articles-siri\/change-siri-voice.jpg\" alt=\"change siri voice\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Note: Works in Safari Only, For Now<\/h3>\n<p>However, for now, this feature only works with articles opened in Safari and not in Chrome. If you ask Siri to read an article in Chrome, you might get a response like, \u201c<em>This page isn\u2019t set up for me to read.<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/read-articles-siri\/not-set-up-for-siri.jpg\" alt=\"not set up for siri\" width=\"1269\" height=\"592\"><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wished you could hear an article instead of reading it?
