Iphone 6 voice recognition not working

I have an iphone 6 and have had it since October 2014.  For about a month now, the voice recognition option does not work.  I like to use it rather than texting, and emails when I'm on the go and it's frustrating that I can't figure out what's wrong.  I have looked through other threads to try and figure out what else I might do.  So far I've:
rebooted (hard reset)
double checked that all my settings are correct re Siri and voice recognition
checked that it is not a problem with earphones v. no earphones.  Doesn't appear to make any difference
Siri doesn't work either
Checked the microphone to make sure it's not blocked or something
I can use the phone feature just fine. 
It just seems to be the voice recognition feature that doesn't want to cooperate.  If you have any ideas please let me know!
I'm taking it to the Apple Store next week since I have run out of my own ideas... Thanks!

  • IPhone 2G voice mic not working

    Has anyone come across iPhone 2G voice mic not working (not being heard by the other person) but works fine on speaker phone and bluetooth headset. It has been working fine so far and suddenly developed this problem! Any help is highly appreciated….

    I had that problem with my iPhone 3G after about 5 days.
    I just had Apple take a look at it.
    They cleaned it out, called it and stuff.
    Didn't work.
    Since I didn't drop it in water and it was not my fault in any way, they gave me a brand new one.

  • IPhone 4s Voice Recognition Stopped Working

    Voice recognition/Siri worked yesterday but is not working today.  I have powered it down multiple times, deleted new apps, turned Siri on and off but nothing has helped.  Suggestions?

    I use voice to text all the time.  It worked yesterday but not today.  I am not a big Siri user but tried it today as well. It acts as if it is listening but does not respond.  I have also tried using my Apple headphones with microphone but that does not work either.

  • The greeting button on my iPhone 4S is not working it is there but i can't press it why is that?

    The greeting button on my iPhone 4S is not working it is there but it is grayed out I am trying to change my greeting from personal to the default one how to I fix this?

    I have a similar issue I could use help with.  I just upgraded to a iPhone 4S and received my new phone but there is no Greeting buttong at all.  When I go to the phone icon, then the voicemail icon the voicemail icon automatially dials an A.T.& T voicemail number  - there is no Greetings on the top lefthand corner.  My cousin has the same phone and she has Greetings typed at the top of her voicemail page and she can click on it and then there is a place to leave a voice mail message.  The upshot is, I have no outgoing message and  nothing for people to hear and no way for people to leave messages.  Any suggestions?

    This sounds more like a hardware issue.
    Have you checked that the dock connector port is not dirty?

  • Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

    Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.   Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything.   Crazy. 
    After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection  ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
    Does anyone have any ideas?

  • When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

  • If my iPhone 5c is not working and I have to trade it for a new phone can I get an IPhone 5s or do I have to trade for another 5c?

    If my IPhone 5c is not working and I have to trade it for a new phone can I get a 5s or do I have to trade it in for another 5c?

    A warranty or out of warranty replacement through Apple will be for the same model, same capacity, same colour.

    I just got an iphone 4s. Now the search iphone function is not working. When I swipe the start screen, the search box shows up. But when I type what I want to search, there is no action. Please help.

    Try this...
    You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash wmode transparent based

    Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash with wmode transparent set. For that matter all flash text fields in Safari 5.1 are not working accross the web when wmode is set to transparent. This is a Safari bug! Other browsers work fine.
    Well after much research Adobe flash text field with wmode transparent set is not working in Safari 5.1 when any flash object has the wmode set to "transparent", or "opaque". The problem is many site must layer flash objects with html so the wmode transparent must be used.
    Affecting sites like BEST BUY, WALMART, CVS, STAPLES, Chechout their flash based weekly ads and find one that you need to update the quantity in the flash pop-up and the text field with keyboard strokes will not work. Flash text fields were all working fine until several month ago when Safari rolled out 5.1 working for Google Voice Flash based widget which uses the wmode transparent. HELP!

    All 3 examples seem to render just fine in IE and FF.

    If not working for you, try clearing your cache to remove any old, non working versions.
    Test on some other machine besides yours.
    Code looks fine and seems to work.

  • The home button on my iphone 5 is not working.

    The home button on my iphone 5 is not working, so I'm using assistive touch.  How do I close open apps without double tapping the home button?

    The other possible things you can try would include...
    Inserting the lightning connector and applying a little bit of pressure up under the Home button.
    Some folks have cleaned the Home button with a few drops of isopropic alochol caring to not get it on your screen.  This is only going to get things working again if it has been gummed up through normal use
    If you are still within the one-year warranty or extended it with Apple Care don't try any of these steps just take it to Apple.
