Using the voice activation in your TL 4th generation w/tech

I was just curious as to how handy this option is?

I've done it a few times to go home, but just seems like it doesnt understand you that well.

Do you recommend practicing? Reading the manual and getting the key words?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I want to learn how to use this efficiently, but its not working out for me all that well. I must admit.

say 'HELP', and you should have a list of key word that you should use to increase the recognition rate... it needs some practice to get use to it.

Okay, I'll check that out. I just think that maybe its not for me.

I mean, how many airport pilots do you have who give voice commands to navigate through the air? EXACTLY!!!!!

I find it rather useful and fun. As you can see, it does not take much to entertain me. I find it works better in the city, than on the highway. If the car is noisy inside, the voice feature does not work as well. I use it to change radio channels, adjust the A/C temp. and to turn on the rear defroster, even to control bluetooth audio. I ask what time is it or what date is it. The one area where it does not seem to work as well is with the phone. Sometimes, it will call the wrong person.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't really find it too helpful. Wish you could play music based by saying the track name!
