There are a lot of things that Siri is capable of which we are not familiar with. The virtual assistant gained access to contextual awareness with iOS 15 which brought it a lot closer to the Google Assistant.

Moreover, we also have a bonus charm to launch your apps, so do stick around.

On your iPhone, you can initiate the virtual assistant by saying "Hey, Siri" and Android devices can bring up the Google Assistant by saying "Hey, Google." Make sure that you have enabled the assistants to always listen to you. This is a pretty neat trick that Harry Potter fans would be delighted to learn. Moreover, it is pretty handy as well since you do not have to unlock your smartphone and bring down the Control Center to use the flashlight.
As a bonus, you can also use the Harry Potter spell "Accio" to summon any app. Simply bring up Siri and say "Accio" followed by the name of the app. It really does work like a charm. The best part about the whole process is that you do not have to download any third-party app to make it happen.
