But if it isn't, or if you’d like to upgrade your version of Voice Command, you can buy or upgrade to Microsoft Voice Command 1.6. After you successfully install or upgrade Voice Command on your Windows Mobile 5 or Windows Mobile 6 powered device, register your product so that you can get the most from the Voice Command program, future releases, and exciting offers for upgrades and accessories. |
|
Voice Command benefits | Voice Command is easy to use and makes interaction with your Windows Mobile device easier when you are on the go. |
|
Bluetooth hands-free control | Bluetooth hands-free control enhances your hands-free eyes-free experience and adds privacy to your spoken notifications. Now you can initiate a Voice Command interaction using a Bluetooth headset and some hands-free car kits*. You can also receive spoken notifications in a whisper mode through the Bluetooth headset keeping you privately up to date. |
|
Spoken e-mail notifications | You can now configure Voice Command to speak the subject and sender of incoming e-mail messages and the content of SMS messages as they arrive. |
|
Spoken caller ID | Windows Mobile smartphone users can take full advantage of incoming caller ID without ever looking down at the screen. Incoming call information is announced as calls are received. Users who think they may have missed a call can simply ask, "What calls did I miss?" and Voice Command will recite the time and phone number of missed calls. |
|
Voice-controlled utilities | Users can start any program in the Start menu or programs folder, such as Inbox, Calculator, or Solitaire. They can get signal strength, battery level, time and date by voice. Voice Command will even alert users when the battery is getting low to ensure strong battery life on the go. |
|
Advanced voice technology | Users can go beyond today's limited voice options by using speaker independent phonetic speech recognition and text-to-speech technology. Instead of requiring users to pre record all of the names of their contacts, the software is designed to recognize the commands users say without any training, resulting in effortless, hands-free communication. |
|
Voice Command features | You can use Voice Command with Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices. When you use Voice Command, you no longer have to fumble with buttons or take your eyes off of your current task to do a lot of tasks. Voice Command includes the following voice-controlled features: |
|
Have a voice-controlled, hands-free phone | Whether in the car, at the airport or walking down the street, you can enjoy true hands-free eyes-free phone conversations without ever having to look at the device to manually dial a number. You can simply say any name from your contact list with the appropriate command. Voice Command will even announce incoming calls. |
|
Use a Bluetooth headset for a better hands free experience and for enhanced privacy | Set up Voice Command to announce incoming calls, new appointments, and incoming e-mail message headers to your Bluetooth headset. Use your Bluetooth headset to access all of the functionality of Voice Command truly hands and eyes free. |
|
Place phone calls to people who are in your address book by using your voice | Just say "Call Nancy Anderson" to place a call or include "at home," "at work," or "on mobile" if there is more than one phone number listed. Voice Command will even tell you which numbers you have for Nancy Anderson and let you decide. |
|
Dial your phone by voice using the phone number | If you need to call a number that is not in your contact list, just say the phone number; for example, "Dial 425 555 0137." |
|
Call back or redial the last caller | Use "callback" to call the last person who called you and "redial" to call the last person who you called. This feature simplifies returning calls to people who are not in your contact list. Missed calls are announced by name or number with a single command: Ask "What calls have I missed?" |
|
Use your voice for contact and calendar lookup | Voice Command makes it easy for you to view your contacts with one command. If you want to view the details for a contact named Nancy Anderson, say, "Show Nancy Anderson." Similarly, you can easily view your calendar by saying, "Show calendar." |
|
Have the subject, time, and location of upcoming appointments read to you | As you are running out the door, you can easily have Voice Command read the details of your upcoming appointments out loud so you do not have to look at the screen to find out what is coming up. |
|
Check the time and location of your next appointments by saying, "What are my appointments" | You can ask about your next appointment by saying, "What is my next appointment." Or, have Voice Command read your appointments for tomorrow by saying, "What are my appointments tomorrow." |
|
Control your media player with your voice | Use your voice to choose the music that you want to play from your collection by album, artist, or genre. You can select the music that you want to listen to the way you think about it. You can even ask Voice Command to "play everything" in your entire music collection, turning your smartphone into your own personal DJ. You can say “Play artist” or “Play album,” and Voice Command will list all of the artists or albums that are on your device and let you choose one of them to create an instant playlist. You can choose to control your music with your voice or use the button interface. If you are listening to new or unfamiliar music, you can ask "What song is this," and the name of the song and artist will be read to you. |
|
Use utilities with spoken commands | With Voice Command, you can use spoken commands to start any program that is on the Start menu or in the Programs folder, such as Inbox, Calculator, or Solitaire. You can even start additional programs that you added to your device. Use one button to start any application with a single quick voice command, including signal strength, battery level, time, and date. You can even set ringer level and low-battery alert by voice. |
