User level: Level 4 (1,265 points)After a recent update to iOS 27.2 on my iPhone 13, Siri no longer responds to my voice without pushing the home button. How do I fix this to work as it did before, by voice only?

Go to Settings > Siri > Listen for Siri, and turn it off. Then turn it back on to either Siri or Hey Siri for the activation and you should be given the steps to retrain your voice.

Forest ~ Your iPhone 13 could be 5 years old and the long process of applying an iOS update to an iPhone with a weak, aging battery can be the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." (A weak battery can particularly adversely affect voice processing.) So...
Does your iPhone 13 still have its original battery?
And what's the Maximum Capacity % here?...
Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging
