Say only iPhone commands and names, and numbers. Pause slightly between commands.

Use full names.

By default, Voice Control expects you to speak voice commands in the language that’s set for iPhone (the General > International > Language setting). The Voice Control settings let you change the language for speaking voice commands. Some languages are available in different dialects or accents.

Change language or country: In Settings, choose General > International > Voice Control and tap the language or country.

Voice Control for the iPod application is always on, but for security you can prevent voice dialing when iPhone is locked.

Prevent voice dialing when iPhone is locked: In Settings, choose General > Passcode Lock and turn Voice Dial off. Unlock iPhone to use voice dialing.

See“Voice Dialing” on page 48 and“Using Voice Control with iPod” on page 77.
