Automatic Speech Recognition (Asr); Text-To-Speech Settings - Kyocera Hydro EDGE User Manual

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)

You can use your phone's built-in automatic speech recognition (ASR) software (Voice Dialer)
to dial a phone number in your contacts or to launch phone functions. All you have to do is to
talk into the phone, and ASR will recognize your voice and complete tasks by itself.
Activate the Voice Dialer
► Touch Home
The phone prompts you to say a command from the list displayed on the screen. To complete
your task, simply follow the onscreen prompts or touch an onscreen option.
If the application does not recognize the number, name, or application name, it will find the most
likely matches and display a list. Touch a selection or touch Cancel to exit the Voice Dialer.
Tip: Use ASR in a quiet environment so it can accurately recognize your commands.
Make a Voice Call with the Voice Dialer
1. Touch Home
2. When prompted to speak, say "Call [contact]" or "Dial [number]."
 For example, say "Call John Smith on mobile," to call John Smith's mobile phone.
Your phone dials the number stored for the contact "John Smith" with the label
"Mobile."
Open an Application with the Voice Dialer
