Launching Alice with a voice
Since Apple has its own virtual assistant Siri, which is supported by its smartphones, starting with the IPhone 4s, you can use it to launch Alice. With this approach, you will not have to unlock the device and launch applications yourself.
Replacing Siri with Alice will not work, since this is not provided by the functionality.
However, for this method, you will have to turn off various kinds of protection when unlocking the phone (password, fingerprint, Face ID). This is done in the 'Touch ID and passcode' settings item. After that, in the settings we find the item 'Siri and search'. There we enable the functions 'Listen Hello, Siri' and 'Siri with screen lock'.
Now say 'Hello Siri', and after starting the assistant, ask to open Yandex. And if everything is done correctly – communicate with Alice on the desired topics.
Disconnecting and removing Alice
To do this, just uninstall the Yandex Browser application. To uninstall an unnecessary program:
click on its icon until a cross appears;
then click on the cross and select 'Delete'.
If you want to leave the browser, but so that the assistant does not respond to the voice, turn off voice activation in the application settings.
