Calling Nicknames

Your Contacts list incorporates a field called “Nickname.” When you add a nickname to a contact, you can say the contact’s name or nickname when using the voice features. For example, if you have a contact, “John Smith” stored in your Contacts list, and you add, “Dad” to the nickname field, you can call that contact by saying, “Call John Smith” or by saying “Call Dad.”

Tip:

If your Contacts list contains a name that you have difficulty using with the voice features (such as some unusual or foreign names), you can add a nickname for that contact that spells out the proper pronunciation of that name.
