Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)

You can use your device’s built-in automatic speech recognition (ASR) software to dial a phone number in People or to launch device functions. All you have to do is to talk into the device, and ASR will recognize your voice and complete tasks by itself.

Activating ASR

Press and tap > Voice Dialer. (You may need to scroll down the screen to see the icon.)

The screen displays “Listening...” and the device prompts you to say the name of the command you

want to use. To complete your task, simply follow the voice prompts.

Available ASR commands include:

Call <Name or Voicemail> to call an entry in your People list or voicemail. (See “Making a Voice Call With ASR.”)

Dial <Number> to dial a spoken phone number.

Redial to dial the last outgoing call.

Open <Application Name> to open an application in your device. (See “Opening Applications With ASR” on page 111.)

Tip: Use ASR in a quiet environment so it can accurately recognize your commands.

Note: Regardless of which command you use, you will be asked to confirm your choice, or choose from a menu if ASR is not sure what you would like to do.
