    Welcome to iMore! I'm a little confused. Are you trying to get Siri to work or voice dictation to work for text messaging?

    Siri is activated by going to Settings > General > Siri
    Dictation is activated by going to Settings > General > Keyboards, and then activating the radio button labeled "enable dictation"

    Hope this helps!

    Siri is listed under settings > general. To use the microphone for dictation in the messages app, just press the microphone on the keyboard and start talking. If you haven't set it up, it'll ask if you want messages to access your microphone and you should choose allow.
