IF only it were more professional looking and not have a cartoon character on my main page. Too bad it didn’t have an option to deselect the character and chose none.

Yeah, I used Start Talking for a while, and it is pretty good. Mine used to respond to my voice by saying “Yes Master?” like in “I Dream of Genie”. But sometimes it would go off in inappropriate situations so that had to go! Its great for handsfree operation from across a room. But I’d usually forget the capability was even there.

Did you even read what this article was about? Or did you just jump into the comments section with your trigger happy typing fingers to show your Apple/Siri nut hugging love. Your bashing google voice for only having 10 scripts? Your acting as if google just released this feature, its been a feature on android phones since the beginning of last year. How many command scripts could the i*hone process all of last year to now? 1? 2? maybe even zero! With how embarrassing the voice command system was. Anyways this article is about Speaktoit which expands google voice’s commands. Apple just barely got voice commands with Siri, which is an amazing system. It allows users to speak to it like a normal person. Hey guess what dummy, with this app androids voice command system does the exact same thing. This is what the article was originally about! There is all this hoopla about Siri on the i*hone 4s because theres nothing else to really talk about. Apple showing off Siri voice commands as innovation just makes me laugh.( just like their innovation with video chat right? ) Guess what android has done the exact same thing, and now with this app in the same manner. Also did you know that Siri was an available app in itunes then pulled months before the revealing of the i*hone 4s? Innovation through 3rd party apps. Oh didn’t you bash google for that in another post only to get owned by @64029c12d260bd5e3cb2504f4155998f:disqus & @soapisclean:disqus Bottom line though people want i*hones, people want android, nothing me or dummies like you can do about it. To each their own.

I’ve been using an app called Start-Talking for nearly a year now and it offers every thing that apple siri offers and more! i literally use it every day. It has a wake up feature which allows you to use any word or phase you want and it will start listening automatically , mine is “hey Andriana”, when it hear’s that phase,it wakes up and starts listening.
I use it for everything, texting, calling, navigation, posting to twitter , face book , reading text and post , listening to poems , quotes, doing calculations , setting reminders , and much more … Its also a really good informational tool that can be used for anything you can thing of, E.g My wife and i were arguing about the name of the prim-minister of Jamaica , So i said “Hey Andrina”, it says “Yes Boss?” (you can customize the response too), i say “Question ” , who is the prime minister of Jamaica? , Not only did it give me his name but also is age and when he was elected!. And this was 9 months ago! Unfortunately, it stopped being updated in July but i can only hope they haven’t stopped working on it. If you need Proof Check out these old videos that were released last november. This was before most of the new features were added and even then it was impressive!

looks like apple boys are getting their pantys in a bunch since siri is now being proven to not be so “innovative”

Voice Actions is not limited to 10 basic action keywords. I have said statements similar to those in the Siri video and have gotten similar results with no knowledge of any basic action words.
