Change keyboard shortcut for Type to Siri

The Type to Siri feature on Mac is super useful, particularly now that Siri has Apple Intelligence features. Using Type to Siri is perhaps even more handy for Mac users than using the voice activated Siri commands, but some Mac users may find themselves accidentally triggering Type to Siri by inadvertently pressing the initiating command sequence.

If you wish to change the keyboard shortcut for Type to Siri on Mac, you can do so rather quickly with a settings change:

• Go to the  Apple menu and choose “System Settings...”
• Select “Apple Intelligence & Siri”
• Select the “Keyboard Shortcut” dropdown menu to choose your desired keyboard shortcut for starting Type to Siri, the default options are: Globe/fn+S, Press Left Command key twice, Press Right command key twice, Press either command key twice or Customize (you can select just about any keyboard shortcut this way)

If you find yourself accidentally initiating the Type to Siri feature with the double press of command key, you might try switching the Type to Siri keyboard shortcut to Globe/fn+S instead, or something else entirely using the customize feature. Or, if you only use one of the Command keys, you might find switching the keyboard shortcut to the non-used Command key to be helpful as well.
