I wish that this was an “and”, not an “or” option. If one enable sthe type to Siri, it’s not possible to speak to it when holding down the HOME button. Yes, there is the “Hey Siri”, but that isn’t as reliable as the HOME button. It’d be great if like Google Assistant, it’s possible to open/close keyboard/microphone on the fly.
