Confused about Voice Commands/Dial on 700w - Treo Forums

Beachbum26 · 01-12-2006, 01:05 PM

Ok, I'm reading pg. 172 in the User Guide about Voice Commands, but I still can't figure out if the 700w can "Voice Dial" a phone number. Is this possible without 3rd party software?

If so, how?

If not, any recommendations?

Thx.
Ted

Go to settings, buttons and, what i did, was select the "hold side" button (the one below the volume controls) and you can assign it to voice command. Then you just have to go to the option to turn on the voice command button. If you go to start menu, then the help button at the bottom and search for voice it will pull up plenty of results and explain all the commands you can say.

You can even push the voice button, say the name of a song, and starts playing in media player.

*Hint* Make sure to find the options to turn off voice announcements (When you activate voice control it defaults to on). I had that stupid computer voice trying to read my calendar appointments and announce them to me instead of the normal beep notification. Computer voices suck at reading abbreviations.
