This method allows you to create automated action sequences (macros) directly via voice commands by utilizing the built-in gesture recording feature of the iOS operating system.
- Turn on the Siri virtual assistant to support quickly turning the control feature on or off.
- Turn off the confirmation mode when disabling Voice Control by going to
Settings→Accessibility→Voice Control→Commands→Accessibility→Turn Off Voice Control, and then switching off theAsk for Confirmationoption. This ensures that the automated click sequence stops immediately upon command without being interrupted by a system confirmation dialog box. - Enable the notification sound when the device successfully recognizes a command by going to
Settings→Accessibility→Voice Control, and switching on thePlay Soundoption.
- If your English pronunciation is not accurate, you should prepare another device with a translation tool opened, such as Google Translate, to pronounce the commands on your behalf when instructing the iPhone.
- Command Siri with the phrase
Hey Siri, Turn on Voice controlto quickly activate the Voice Control feature. - Open the application or game that needs the auto click setup on the screen to prepare for the operation.
- Clearly speak the command
Start recording gesturesso the device enters the gesture memory mode. At this point, the Voice Control icon in the upper left corner will change from blue to red. If thePlay Soundmode is enabled, the device will emit a beep sound.
- Proceed to tap the locations on the screen in the exact desired sequence.
- Perform the actions slowly. If the application has a delay or requires time to load data, you should wait a bit longer at that step to ensure the automated click sequence still works accurately even when the network lags or the application responds slowly.
- After completing the entire sample click sequence, speak the command
Stop recording gesturesto stop the recording process. - A dialog box will automatically appear asking you to name the recorded gesture. Enter a very short and easy-to-pronounce English name, such as
Show 1.1.
- Open the interface of the application where you need to run the auto click.
- Speak the exact command name set in the previous step, for example
Show 1.1. The system will automatically replay the entire recorded gesture sequence once.
- To make the automated action sequence repeat continuously, speak the command
Repeat xximmediately after the main command is activated. In this phrase,xxrepresents the number of times you want to repeat the click sequence, with a value range from 1 to 99.
- The system will automatically stop after completing the set number of repetitions.
- In case you need an emergency stop before the loop finishes, speak the command
Turn Off Voice Control. The system will register the command and stop immediately after finishing the current click turn. The gesture sequence cannot be interrupted instantly in the middle of a click turn but must wait for that turn to fully end before stopping completely. - If you are stuck, you can speak the command
Turn Off Voice Controland lock the screen immediately. It will click on the lock screen once and then stop automatically.
-
Rule for resetting the loop. When you want to run a new number of repetitions, you must speak the gesture activation command again before speaking the loop command. For example, the correct process is speaking the commands
Show 1.1-Repeat 10-Show 1.1-Repeat 3. If you speak consecutive loop commands likeRepeat 10-Repeat 3without an activation command in between, the system will not execute them. -
How to add a pause between loops. When using the repeat command, iOS executes the cycles back-to-back without any built-in delay. The moment one loop finishes, the next one starts instantly. This can easily cause sync errors if your app or game needs a brief moment to process things. To fix this, you can use a clever little workaround during the gesture recording phase:
- Once you finish the final tap of your sample sequence, do not stop recording right away. Instead, wait for about 1 to 2 seconds.
- Tap a blank area or a 'neutral' spot on the screen where a tap will not trigger any actions or disrupt the app.
- Only then should you speak the command
Stop recording gesturesto finish up. This trick forces the system to bake a built-in pause into the end of your macro, ensuring a safe buffer between loops and preventing errors caused by rapid-fire clicking.
-
Network speed and app responsiveness. Always prioritize performing the sample click steps very slowly to create a safe buffer for the device to process data, avoiding the auto click getting out of sync when the application loads slowly.
