Voice Assistant

Do you use a voice assistant?

I use Google Now on my Android phone and when I'm in Chrome. I use it for things like web searches, news updates, reminders, and just general questions. When I'm traveling I like how it has all pertinent information, flights, boarding confirmation, etc handy.

I don't use it my phone (I'm kinda old fashioned), but I like to ask Siri (Apple) a load of questions, his responses are priceless! messing around is much better than actually asking it to do commands and making use of him/her.

Google Assistant is very smart. They offer you the ability to use Google voice search to make the searching process easier. I recommend you install Google Goggles in your phone. Some advanced features including
- Search by taking a picture: point your mobile phone camera at a painting, a famous landmark, a barcode or QR code, a product, or a popular image. If Goggles finds it in its database, it will provide you with useful information.
- Goggles also works as a barcode / QR code scanner.
- Goggles can read text in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Turkish, and translate it into other languages.
Your smartphone will become more smart 🙂 :lol:

Neat, I did not know about search by taking a picture. I'll have to try it out. Could be useful in a museum or traveling.

I'm not sure whether I actually use my Virtual Assistants how they should be 😀 I loved asking Siri nonsense when I had an Iphone now I use Google Now and SVoice <- SVoice needs some improvements though

I never really use them all that often. Siri can be helpful from time to time for sure. But I just prefer to search my question manually i suppose.

I'd use Siri but for some reason, my phone has a hardware issue and Siri and voice dictation doesn't work. 🙁

I have an Amazon Echo. It's a really nice product, although still needs some work. It doesn't do quite everything yet.
