Siri will show off its Star Wars knowledge if you say one iconic phrase

By Ellissa Bain

Siri can be great if you want to send a quick text or set an alarm without touching your phone, but that’s not all it can do.

Apple’s digital assistant is equipped with all kinds of funny quips, jokes and responses, and one of them is related to Star Wars.

Siri will quote Star Wars

If you’re a Star Wars fan, you will love this silly trick. All you have to do it open Siri on your iPhone, iPad or Mac and say: “Hey Siri, I am your father.”

It’s one of the most famous lines in movie history, when Darth Vader says “No, I am your father” to Luke Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back.

When you say it, the voice assistant will respond with one of many funny lines that all relate to George Lucas’ franchise in some way.

The best thing about this trick is that Siri says something different every time, and you don’t know what you’re going to get.

“No…no! That’s not true! That’s impossible,” it said the first time I asked.

Next time, Siri responded: “Something, something, something, dark side…”

“Together, we can rule the galaxy as father and intelligent assistant,” another reply said.

The last time, she went really rogue and gave off a whole spiel about jumping from the maintenance catwalk into the air shaft in Cloud City.

Try it yourself and see what you get! Once you’ve had some Star Wars fun, you can make Siri sing a famous Queen song too.
